I have trouble with iTunes acknowledging my iPod, fwiw, with much the same setup. So if you find anything that works, let me know!
Numfar! Do the dance of joy.

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!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
kewl: Macbook: As Viewed by a Thermal Camera
(I can't believe I used the word 'kewl.' Or is it 'kewel'?)
Summary: A FLIR Systems P65HS thermal camera was used to view a black, non-upgraded Macbook before and after yes > /dev/null was run for 5 minutes. The right side of each image includes a temperature scale bar [in Celsius], with the hottest pixel in the scene indicated by the number directly above the scale. The number in the top right shows the temperature of the pixel in the crosshairs. The error in each measurement is +/- 2 degrees Celsius. For fun, an Xbox 360 and a 38-inch CRT HDTV were also imaged.
I totally forgot about the Unix 'yes' command. And I just confirmed that running 'yes > /dev/null' is a good way of soaking up CPU power. But on my MacBook that only ties up one of the processors. But if I run that command on two shell windows, I can peg both CPUs at 100% And yes, my MacBook's CPU cooling fan is running already - and the CPU us up to 185.4 degrees F - usually it's around 130.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Thanks, Rob. I hope they do fix it. It's a pretty good client, especially for something that came with the OS.
Well, I guess those as use it know it, but ISOhunt is down for the count.

Oh gawd - this is freaky:
This is cool! GO to any web page, clear the address bar, and paste this: "javascript:document.body.contentEditable='true'; document.designMode='on'; void 0" (without the quotes) and hit enter. Feel free to edit whatever you want on the page!
Doesn't let you post after you've fucked up b.org, though.

I figured out a solution to my RedirectMatch conundrum above!
I changed the php for the new files so that rather than using "playlist.php?date=YYYYMMDD", I use "playlist.php/YYYYMMDD". Since there's now no question mark in the new URL, the redirect statement works perfectly.
The fake subdirectory thing is really cool. I had no idea how easy it was to implement. There's a gift with purchase in constructing the URLS that way as, supposedly, some search engines ignore parameters to the right of a question mark when spidering. Google does not ignore them, but there are claims that others do: [link]

All is well that ends in pizza.
I'm not so sure we want to be linking to an ahem site.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Frankly, I think it's a few years too late to worry about that.

I can't see what trouble we could get into either.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
It sucks about isohunt. They'd always had the best search feature.
