Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Hey. New board.
ah. it doesn't work with firefox yet.
Huh. Weird. It works perfectly with Safari. Usually, things go the other direction.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Works in Opera. That's not so common.
iTunes question -- in Windows when I select some songs in a playlist or library I can drag the MP3s to my desktop or another folder.
In OS X, can I do the same, to effectively (and easily) copy a playlist's worth of MP3s to a CD? Is there a simpler way?

Hey. New board.
Two ways. You can burn mp3 cds directly in iTunes from a playlist (edit your "Burn" preferences to mp3 cd) though that loses directory structure and stuff if you care about that. Or, you can do exactly the same thing: drag songs from iTunes to your desktop, they appear. I think it's a copy, not a move, though it might be worth double-checking.

I think I'll instruct him to do the former, then, since I'm not Mac-savvy enough to talk him through dragging the stuff to the right place.
Thanks!

does anybody know a good FREE web interface for IRC? I'm suspicious of just googling IRC web interface because I'm worried about picking up spyware, etc., from skeevy sites.

I just purchased this Remote Control. I'm pretty sure it's the most intelligent entity in the house now. I'll be programming it shortly.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
There's the Chatzilla IRC extension for Firefox. [link]

Alas, I only have the evile IE on this laptop, which is one of our users', so I can't install anything permanent-like.

Oooh. Let us know how intuitively and ergonomically friendly it is. The problem I've had with universal remotes is that it's impossible to remember where buttons are (or they have those ridiculous touch screens). Unlike, say, the TiVo remote, which is the friendliest remote ever.
