I am thinking of getting my mom an mp3 player and a subscription to audible. This would be her first one- does anyone have any reommendations that are super easy to use AND have larger print (my mom is 69)
Or maybe you could just be Buffy, he'll see your amazing heart, and he'll fall in love with you.

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!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
This is a shot in the dark, but has anyone used cURL and/or openssl on a Windows machine? I have a cURL command that works fine on OS X but fails due to an SSL issue on XP.
The error I get is:
SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate in certificate chain.

That said, I'd be interested in why the XP machine has a self-signed certificate in the chain when the Mac doesn't.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Hmm, Time Capsule has needed a couple of reboots in the last six months for backups. Normal but random that it is more frequent? Or am I possibly getting to place where I might be needing a replacement?
Wireless, automagic backups are kinda brilliant.
But I don't want to need to replace it yet. The new ones are tall and the cat loves to curl up on the current squat one. It made of warms.

I tried that earlier and it still doesn't work. Using the -k or --insecure option makes it prompt me for a password and then I still get the same error.
I think there's something wrong with openssl on my XP computer. I was originally using Ruby to grab stuff from a webpage--this also works fine on OS X but fails with an SSL error on XP.
eta: Oops. Was using the -k switch at the wrong place. So I think I've gotten past the "self-signed certificate" problem but I'm still having another problem (that I didn't on OS X) which might be related.
eta²: OK, I tried a slightly different syntax on XP and got it working.

Does anyone have an online photo printing service they like that can import from G+?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Adoramapix has (or had) an "Import from Picasa" option. Also, convenient in-store pickup.

Thank you! Wow, they're expensive though.

Potentially killer set-top box for cord-cutters
Add Netflix and this could replace Tivo AND Roku for me. [eta: And cable, except for Game of Thrones. Come on HBO, you're my last hold-out!]

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
SO that is a one time purchase, no yearly subscription?
