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!
Oh dear dog! I contacted IT in School of the Arts, and they say to NOT do the Google stuff, because they are switching over to Office365 this summer. So? Why the heck did the campus IT send out the email saying to switch over to Google.UCI.edu?? @@ For the love of all that is sacred, can't they get their stories straight?!?!
I have an iPhone now. So I'm now one of those people who have an iPhone.Welcome to the cool club!!
The Android people larf and larf...
And the lack of network DNS is biting my ass. I don't get how you people do this. My NAS just disappeared from my Mac, I swear. And when I run the discovery tool, it's misreporting the IP addresses. I can get it back in Finder using a hosts file, but I can't authenticate all of a sudden. Those volumes are hidden from me. Time Capsule can't see it, and it hasn't backed up the Mac since the new router went in. What the fuck?
It's static DHCP, and it's handing out the same address as before, dammit. Now I'm feeling convinced I have to load dd-wrt to at least get back to that state.
If I can connect via the web browser (and have verified it's the right credentials), and the hosts file points to that IP address, what in hell could be the problem? Not serving DNS couldn't break that...
It definitely shouldn't...
dammit. Posterous was purchased by twitter. Industry experts suggest posterous is going down within about 6 months.
So...
Can people suggest alternatives for someone who does light (LIGHT) blogging? I have a blog over there I need to move too.
Wordpress?
WordPress.com has a Posterous importer tool.
oh thank you.
t-5 days to new phone. Thank god. It takes me 1/2 a day to listen to voice mail, and I drop calls like strippers drop it like it's hot.
I was thinking the myTouch, but now, I am thinking the Samsung Galaxy S -- not the brand-new one, but the 1st gen. It'd be free with my upgrade. Anyone have one, and have any thoughts about it?
(I'm with T-Mobile, and we have an unlimited talk/text/data plan.)
So now I need some iPhone apps. Of course I already have the apps that I got for my iPod Touch, but now I can get apps that need GPS and/or a constant connection to the internets. Any ideas?
For starters, I need a QR code reader. And maybe one of those "remember where I parked in the big-ass parking lot" apps. Any recommendations?
ION, the Personal Hotspot works great. The other day I was humming "I'm a walking hotspot. I'm a walking hotspot."
eta: Ooh. An augmented reality app would be cool!
At least you didn't have to be homeless to get the privilege.
