Too many of those comments were "didn't work for me!", or I ended up not being able to find the precise hackable model for sale. So, caveat indeed.
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

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

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
what are you guys currently using Locale or Tasker or any other similar app for?
So far it's mostly to shush it.
- During night hours, when at home and plugged in: mute all media and extraneous sounds except alarms and ringtones. I want students or family members calling with emergencies to be able to get me, but I don't need to be alerted when someone has emailed me spam. Actually now that I think about it, I may have muted the alarms too. Must check.
- At school locations, silent mode (vibrate only).
- At theater/church, silent mode.
Next up is to bring in some of the profiles other people have done up, like the one where when you plug it in it asks you: desk/car/night. Or the one where you plug in your headphones and it queues up your favorite playlist or whatever.
After that is Astrid tie-in. I still have some tweaking to do with Astrid. It's kinda not optimal, I'm starting to feel, but I think I can poke at it enough to make it work. And its integration is its biggest selling point.

I wish Cozi had Tasker integration. And I wish it integrated with GrocreryPal.

The UK Season 2 Blurays of Sherlock are regionfree. That should be fine in a Region 1 player, shouldn't it?

Do many UK sets come region free nowadays, or is it a Blu Ray thing?

The DVDs for Sherlock all seem to be Region 2, but the Blu-Rays are Region Free. Browsing the new Blu-rays at Amazon UK, a little under half seem to be region free.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Aren't movie release dates more consistant around the world these days, making the whole separate region thing less necessary?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
The DVDs for Sherlock all seem to be Region 2, but the Blu-Rays are Region Free.
So any Blu-ray player would play them? Theoretically.

I've got a program that generates a word file with two columns,not a table, but columns. Only when I do a cntrl-a in word to select everything and then try to change the number columns to 1 (to get rid of the columns, so I just have one column) word gives me the message "must enter a number between 1 and 45". Word does see to let me get rid of the columns as long as I do one page at a time. And the result is still in the form of a six inch column rather than a normal document. So how do I actually get rid of the columns in a multi-page document, ideally not one page at a time. (Word 97).
