Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

OK so is he better off trying to get a phone here that will work in Japan?

They're very difficult to find here. It sounds like he'll have to get an alien registration card, so I'd just get one over there.

From here [link] :

All foreigners, who stay in Japan for more than 90 days, need to apply for an alien registration card within the first 90 days of their stay. Applications are to be made at the local municipal office (e.g. city hall). The alien registration card is an important document required for opening a bank account, obtaining a cell phone and similar activities. Foreign residents are required to carry their alien registration card with them at all times.

Loaded skype on laptop. when skype loaded (whether signed on or not) beeps continously. stops when signed out. If microphone muted most of beeping disapears, rest with line-in muted. But you cant use skype with mic muted.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Feedback?

Maybe. I think there is static that turns into beeping when skype is loaded. Anything I can do about it?

Does anybody know if there's an open source or freeware alternative to Final Draft?

Jane Espenson just mentioned Zhura on her blog, some kind of web-based alternative to Final Draft. [link]

Okay, I'll resubmit my request for an Amazon Unbox bypass/DRM removal method. Tunebite only gave me six minutes of choppy jerky silent footage.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So iTunes keeps telling me it can't save my library because there's not enough space or some shit (I don't have it open right now). My hard drive is in no way full. Is there something I should be doing about this? Or is it just another sign of bad things to come with this poor computer?

Jesse,

do you need to rebuild the itunes library?

I hope you have backed up your hard disk in case end times are coming...

I have to buy an external drive, ASAP I guess!
