Hivemind, I'm trying to unintstall a program in Windows XP and I can't find it in the uninstaller. The program is in program files, but there's nothing with the install date in the uninstaller. Any ideas other than just deleting the file in explorer?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Depends on the program, but try deleting the program folder manually, and then use Windows Installer Cleanup Utility: [link]

Seems I have some matroska video files. I'd love to play them on my Xbox via 360 connect. Seems the only thing that plays the files is VLC Player. Is there a Mac app that could convert them to MP4 or wmv? Or should I just watch on my iMac instead of big TV?

I read this as "matrioshka."
What, does each one contain another, smaller, file?

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

Potentially an infinite number of them, actually -- one of the defining features of mkv is that the container can hold any number of files, where most formats are limited to just a few each of audio and video in each container file. And, yes, it's named after the dolls.

I feel clever and yet, at the same time, kind of dumb.

I think Handbrake may convert .mkv files.

iPhone copy & paste rumors.
Oh pleasepleaseplease!
(Except that double-tapping is already a shortcut for "zoom in on this" so I hope there's more to the gesture than that if this rumor is true.)
