@CaliLewis … And me! I still have too many older PPC and pre-C2D Intels… Should we band together and start a BSD- or Linux-Mac group?

via Echofon in reply to CaliLewis

@natalidelconte Sure, why not alert HR? Never can be too careful… being paranoid doesn’t mean that “they” aren’t out to get you. :-)

via web in reply to natalimorris

@feliciaday Oh. Just. Great. Now I feel oddly drawn to toss every link u post over to the mass HTTP downloader for processing… ;-)

via Echofon in reply to feliciaday

@natalidelconte couldn’t u just do reverse phone lookup on your mystery butt dialer?

via Echofon in reply to natalimorris

@natalidelconte hmm… The lactase deficiency issue is just _now_ making the news?!? Thought this has been known for quite some time…

via Echofon in reply to natalimorris

@ryanblock I still have a couple of PPC based Macs on 10.4, but I wish I could try 10.6 on them.

via Echofon in reply to ryan

@ryanblock Argh! Too scary to upgrade, it sounds…

via Echofon in reply to ryan

@alexkingorg … To have businesses build lots of custom apps and accessing BES.

via Echofon in reply to alexkingorg

@alexkingorg True, but that was a lot of the initial premise behind the BB, especially during it’s JavaOne heyday…

via Echofon in reply to alexkingorg

@majornelson Ah, the dangers of self-restraint! Haven’t you heard about the bad economy that you have to save single-handedly at Fry’s? ;-)

via Echofon in reply to majornelson

@ryanblock is it true that lotsa heat builds character?

via Echofon in reply to ryan

@feliciaday You’re a tough gal to figure out… Deep-fry gal, dough-gal, just-mega-carbs gal…? :-P

via Echofon

@brandius BTW, on ur blog, are you referring to sake (brewed rice wine) or ‘saki (like a yukasaki)? You are 1 mega-contextual exercise! :-)

via Echofon in reply to brandius

@brandius Wow… Geeking out on Grayson-Bat?!? Hmm… Catch any whales yet? :-P

via Echofon in reply to brandius

You just gotta wonder… What prompts a javamancer sitting lazily at a coffee joint to tweet madly instead of finishing his charting…?

via Echofon

@majornelson Yes. You do. Absolutely, you do. You must buy it. Yes, Precious. Pretty telescope, yes. Precious, yes. Yes, you must.

via Echofon in reply to majornelson

RT @majornelson: I don’t need a $1200 dollar telescope. Really.

via Echofon

@majornelson bwahahahaha! Gadgeteers unite! Sometimes u just can’t have too many gadgets and widgets!

via Echofon in reply to majornelson

@alexkingorg hmm… Why not just stick w/ Firefox then, instead of Chromium?

via Echofon in reply to alexkingorg

@feliciaday do u think the “Models of the Runway” adds too much extra drama or just enough? A lot of anti-designer rage goin’ on…

via Echofon in reply to feliciaday

@CaliLewis 11 pm pep could be due to Daily Show reruns? Or late-night CoD:WaW zombie slaying!

via Echofon in reply to CaliLewis

@CaliLewis I’m thinking annual bonus announcements or just a lot of partying.

via Echofon in reply to CaliLewis

@CaliLewis Hmm… Makes u wonder what was going on during appx 9 months prior that made their parents so active… ;-)

via Echofon in reply to CaliLewis

@CaliLewis PrettyLink Pro… Wow, pricey… Hope it’s got the kitchen sink! Does it aggregate features from other plugins?

via Echofon in reply to CaliLewis

@BrooklynDDecker Congrats on the UB show! (Just some gratuitous congrats…)

via web in reply to BrooklynDecker

@thinkgeek ?!? Where are those dual 30” Apple Cinema Displays or 30” Gateway LCDs?

via web in reply to thinkgeek

Oh, for the the love of Twitter… where is that dream Java-based mega-tweeting app?

via web

@feliciaday … but how to phrase it, hmm?

via web in reply to feliciaday

@feliciaday That ought to be a 1 vs. 100 question…

via web in reply to feliciaday

@majornelson as long as you’re not the one left holding the proverbial bag who has to turn off the lights for good.

via Echofon in reply to majornelson

@feliciaday Is it time to add a couple of ferrets to your household, then?

via Echofon in reply to feliciaday

@alexkingorg hiya! What’s the verdict on using Chromium as default /main browser? Also, much different from Chrome?

via Echofon

@neilhimself does that mean that URL shorteners are the footnotes for the footnotes for life?

via Echofon in reply to neilhimself

Hmm… The diet of a @feliciaday spotted in the wild? http://tinyurl.com/lq8fnm Scary! :-P

via Echofon

@feliciaday Ah-ha! Got me salivating just thinking about Diablo 3! You’re such a temptress! ;-)

via web in reply to feliciaday

@majornelson I remember that feeling… Basically, every day feels like a Monday! ;-)

via web in reply to majornelson

@natalidelconte While I’m an ice cream cup person, I can see the allure of having a gooey, dripping, liquidy mess puddling around oneself…

via web in reply to natalimorris

@feliciaday Hey, is that one of those Ikea rolling notebook stands? If so, how is it working out? Is it steady enough?

via web in reply to feliciaday

Curious about any experiences with using VirtualHostX with virtualization platforms like VirtualBox or Parallels.

via web

Hmm… Anybody been using VirtualHostX for running multiple virtual hosts on OS X?

via web

@BrooklynDDecker 2kewt! What’s the paint color, btw?

via web in reply to BrooklynDecker

RT @thinkgeek Attn valued dumpster divers: WE SEE YOU. http://twitpic.com/eadas Also, caution: some borked merchandise *will* bite.

via web

@neilhimself Hmm… Any reason for the Detroit pre-emotive strike? Stephen Colbert?

via Echofon in reply to neilhimself

@brandius … Have to locate a whale on the Internet, other than the Fail Whale… Must be one out there who snagged a PC due to the ads.

via Echofon in reply to brandius

@BrooklynDDecker I’d side with the “creepy” part… Unless she’s a publicist for HM?

via Echofon in reply to BrooklynDecker

@natalidelconte Wow… Is this going to curtail your beef entree?

via Echofon in reply to natalimorris

@BrooklynDDecker Do you prefer to make ‘em decadently sweet, or lip-smackin’ savory, or more of a lush creamy consistency?

via web in reply to BrooklynDecker

@CaliLewis And speaking of hot sauce: Do you think the N97 is decent enough as a WiFi device (like an iPod touch) or BT’able to a cellphone?

via web in reply to CaliLewis

But looking at how the docs should be written: is the 0 app the 0th component, or is it the 1st?

via web

… And to think, it’s actually a series of components with the formal names of 0, 1, 10, 11, 100, 101, 110, 111, and 1000…

via web

Hmm… the “HTTP Mass Downloader”… argh, now *I’m* starting to use that name for it! :-P

via web

@thinkgeek Hmm… You guys are in Fairfax, VA? Gee, I should drop by sometime and see if there’s anything geeky-fun to be had! ;-)

via web

@brandius Hmm… wow… don’t encounter too many cetaphobes floating around the ether… ;-)

via web

#winMBP @taptaptap is giving away a $5999 ColorWare STEALTH MacBook Pro to celebrate launching Convert for iPhone! http://taptaptap.com/+Gf2

via web

@CaliLewis It usually isn’t too bad… Take a Nexium or Protonix a day…

via Echofon in reply to CaliLewis

@feliciaday Geez the Snape fans are just multiplying, eh? It may be the goth dude thingy… ;-)

via Echofon in reply to feliciaday

@CaliLewis Reportedly for blocking vampires, too… The garlic, that is. Watch out for double whammy vampire insects!

via Echofon in reply to CaliLewis

Wow… Definitely bears checking out the latest XBL dashboard update!

via Echofon

RT @majornelson: Here is a list of what is in this update (and what is not yet) http://bit.ly/aZCRh

via Echofon

@CaliLewis you gotta back up your
claim: photos!

via Echofon in reply to CaliLewis

@ryanblock the ooh factor of the shiny display in the store doesn’t equate to the real world use…

via Echofon in reply to ryan

@alexkingorg you picked a toasty humid day here in the DC-Baltimore area… Supposed to top 100 F in some spots.

via Echofon in reply to alexkingorg

@neilhimself Quick! Grab Neal’s name as a Twitter login! :-P

via Echofon in reply to neilhimself

@majornelson time for MSFT to launch their own service or buy mine. ;-)

via Echofon in reply to majornelson

@natalidelconte Both of you overpacked? Is there really such a thing as “overpacking”? Isn’t it just being a good boy/girl scout?

via web in reply to natalimorris

Unfortunately, there is a considerable sluggishness to the JS in the text box…

via web

Finally launched Camino on the Mac Pro the other day, and I like how it works for some sites… I decided to install it onto the MacBook…

via web

@majornelson Quieter Internet? Hmm… But MORE time to play on CoD:WaW’s Map Pack 3 maps!

via web in reply to majornelson

@majornelson this has happened to me a lot: the answer is either after 4pm or when everybody else is eating dinner.

via Echofon in reply to majornelson

@neilhimself Always wonder about that. Ever try asking about the crazy construction going on in Mumbai?

via Echofon in reply to neilhimself

@ryanblock isn’t that the service that Cali Lewis pitches in her podcasts?

via Echofon in reply to ryan

@CaliLewis make any snap decisions yet on a new smartphone?

via Echofon in reply to CaliLewis

@natalidelconte Sometimes I have to transition back onto coffee if I’ve been w/o for a few days.
