Whoah. That's a hell of a list. Confusingly, not everything on it has a hack. Some of the hack comments are just "How do I hack this?" But it will give me a good reference.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Compassionately intolerant
I'm trying to bypass the onboard mic on my iSight camera, and use the Snowball mic ND hipped me to ages ago.
I hear Quicktime Pro might accomplish this.
Has anyone used QTP for video podcasting or similar? I'm not loving iMovie and will gladly pay the freight, but I'd like to know that it works for importing sound and is, in general, easier to use.
Any thoughts?

Thought I'd share. I have a digital mixer at work that is basically a big control surface conncted to a computer running windows. Seems the big control surface didn't want to work today. The head unit (computer) looked like it was turning on, but nothing came up on the screen, and the faders didn't initialize. I call tech support. I open the front panel to see a bunch of PCI cards. He tells me to reach in, past the PCI cards, and to the right of the processor, and unseat the RAM sticks, and reseat them. Then push down gently on the CPU fan to make sure it's seated properly. Viola! The puppy booted just fine. Crazy. Since all that stuff was in the back, and reaching through tons of ribbon cable and such, it felt like the triceratops scene in the Jurassic Park movie. Fun! (but less messy)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Attempt number 2, in correct thread:
I realize this is a long shot, but does anyone here have Sibelius installed?
Edit: I think I'm sorted, though I'm still curious.

Hmm. Had Google Wave. Didn't know what to do with it.

Some friends and I are actually using Wave to do online RPGs, with some decent success. Shame it'll be going away (eventually).

According to some, Google Wave was great for managing multi-person conversations that spanned multiple internet media i.e. email, chat (don't know if handle social networks as well). Apparently a limited market. And heard this, so don't know that it is true.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Hey, Dana, in the future, I've got Sibelius and we use it extensively. The SO does all his orchestral composition on it, and I use it to make 7 note scale charts for beginner students. Heh.
