Buffistas

Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Is there a way to make Wordpress display more than 20 comments at a time in Mass Edit mode?

The 20 seems to be hard-coded into edit-comments.php. If you're self-hosting and feeling adventurous, you could go through that file and change all the 20's to something bigger. Or maybe there's a plug-in (I couldn't find one, but I didn't look very hard)?

Art Crawl!!!

Help!

I bought a nano on Saturday and today I'm trying to charge it up and when I first plugged it into the USB port - my computer told me that it didn't recognize it and it is malfunctioning so try again. Which I did - and got similar messages but now I'm getting nothing. Does this mean my ipod's cord is frelled or is it the two usb ports on my home computer?

Okay, I got the book on cd ripped in via iTunes. It's just annoying because then I had to use MP3 converter to make it an audiobook. iTunes should have an mp3-to-audiobook converter built in...

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

I think you can just tell iTunes that an mp3 is an audiobook. (He says, without checking iTunes first.)

OK, I think that what you do is go to "Get Info" and change the Genre to AudioBooks. You also might want to check "Remember playback position" under Options.

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

What tommy said has worked for me. I've never had to convert anything again, but I use iTunes to listen to it in.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Jessica ... what Jon said ... or, if you're feeling really adventurous, another solution I found is to edit the comments database using PHPMyAdmin.

From Wired.com:

Toshiba put HD-DVD out of its misery today. Reuters confirmed this afternoon that it will cease manufacturing HD-DVD equipment, following earlier reports from Japan's NHK public broadcasting network.

So I guess this means Blu-Ray wins?

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Trust my rage

Just yesterday, I heard two news reports about how Blu-Ray seemed to be winning but nothing was decided yet. Stuff moves fast in this world.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Aw, HD-DVD, we hardly knew ye!

Is this Sony's first format-war win?
