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!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

It belongs here -- we just haven't discussed it much since the keynote watch-n-post. Speaking for myself, I'm sorely tempted, but I'm not due for a handset upgrade on my non-iPhone AT&T contract until the winter, so I'm holding off until then rather than paying the non-subsidy price.

Also, HI!! It's been way too long since we've happened through the same thread!

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 I am braindead.

Anyway, in Javascript, how would you set the value of a date object to the value of another date object? I mean, besides using getYear(), getMonth() and getDate() on one date object and then using setYear(), setMonth() and setDate() on the other - there must be a simpler way, huh?

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

So, my Mac upgraded to the new iTunes today, and I noticed the Applications tab. So I'm upgrading my iPhone to the new software as I type...

I wonder if any of these applications are any good.

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

The two apps I most wanted, a password keeper and an ssh client, haven't shown up.

Can you use a bluetooth keyboard with an iPhone?

I doubt it, tommyrot. Although I await to be proved wrong.

Anybody can develop apps for the iPhone, so I presume an SSH client will show up sooner or later.

The 2.0 firmware download is kicking around on appleinsider.com if anybody wants it, by the way.

On the other hand, they have Canfield, which is the One True Solitaire. My subway rides just got slightly less hellish.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Rrm...any WordPress folk in here?

It's been requested that Kerfuffle Bunny show the full cartoon on the "feeds" (whatever that means) rather than just link to it.

Can this be done?

How?
