My wife has purchased a new mp3 player, the Samsung YP-P2 8gb. It’s a cool little gadget (native A2DP Bluetooth, mp4 video capable, pictures, touch screen, etc, etc). Unfortunately, out of the box it only speaks MTP. My lovely wife’s PC boots a Debian GNOME desktop, which only groks UMS. What’s a bald hacker to do?
I own an actual iPod, created by the magic elves in the Apple factory and invested with the magic that makes it work with the iTunes store. At least, it was… Then, I found iPodHackers.net.
Well, it’ll be December 2010 before another total Lunar eclipse happens again. Unfortunately, we had a cold-front push a bunch of nasty, drizzling clouds into my sky. So, I couldn’t watch the dragon consume the Moon.
No wonder it took so long for people to notice this stuff in pre-history; weather could occlude anyone knowing eclipses were happening!
Ah well, here’s to the next chance in 2010.
I’m going to try getting back onto just a single blog instead of scattering all the stuff around the internet. Don’t know why my opinion on this changes to often, but I guess it’ll be something to try for a while.
