Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The next iPad is rumored to have retina, but not the current one.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

OK, I'll wait then.

I hope someday we get Retina (or the equivalent) on regular computers too. A Retina display on a MacBook Pro would be awesome....

I've got a 4th gen iPod Touch on order, so I'm looking forward to the display. But really, I'm most of all looking forward to one without synching issues.

I have heard rumors about the new ipad having a retina display, but some Mac bloggers doubt this will be the case for '11. Maybe '12.

iTunes question: The function for burning CDs is no longer there, is there a bug or did Apple take that away?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

It looks like you have to create a playlist first, then you can use the File->Burn Playlist to Disc command.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

How do you find out what dpi a photo is within iPhoto? I know how many pixels by how many pixels the photo is but not the bit depth.

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

DPI isn't important until you print it out, Spidra. I mean, as a photo, it just has a width of pixels. You can print it out at 300 DPI or 72 DPI or whatever you want.

Thanks, ita. I figured it was something their designers would be choosing but the person communicating with me knows even less about that stuff than I do.
