It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Up until today, sure! I can't work out what the fuck is going on.

Did you update iCal recently, ita? I know mine has been telling me to update and also warning me that one of devices won't sync anymore if I do, but I think it's an old OS Mac that's the problem, not google. But maybe that has something to do with it.

I don't recall updating it recently, but it might have been bundled in with a reboot I wasn't paying attention to. But I'm not running an old OS. I have a new MacBook.

Yeah, I was thinking maybe the update frelled the google sync somehow. I haven't updated, and my iCal is syncing with google just fine.
Eta: I just went ahead and did the upgrade and (a) you'd have noticed if this had gone through, it moved all my calendars around and (b) it didn't mess up the google sync. So, never mind.

Hey. New board.
Yeah, my iCal is syncing fine with Google.
I almost never use iCal anymore, though. I've decided that I like calendar.google.com just fine, so I use it and my iPhone calendar exclusively to edit my schedule.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I am such a geek, but you all know that, right? Anyway, this is so cool: Electromechanical computer built from relays
This is Zusie, a computer built out of electromechanical relays. [Fredrik Andersson] picked up a lot of about 100 telephone exchange circuit boards, each with about 16 relays on them. After getting to know a heat gun really well he ended up with 1500 working relays with which to play. The machine runs slowly, it’s noisy, but it definitely works. After the break yo can see it running and assembly code program that he wrote.
The instruction set is based on boards running microcode. These store the operational commands for each instruction the processor has available to it and they run in parallel with the rest of the operations.
eta: You know how in ST:TOS, when the ship's computer is working, you can hear what sounds like relays clicking? Which is weird, because relay-based computers were long obsolete by the time ST:TOS was on the air.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
ita, just as a data point, someone on another board I'm on is having that same problem as of today.

Spidra, thanks for that heads up. How frustrating. Google wasn't giving me any help yesterday. Maybe time will tell.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda
Any advice on DVD authoring software for Windows? I'm looking for something that can work with a variety of file types, and can do the necessary file converting without requiring me to take a night class on video editing terminology.
