Turtle Tattoo Designs

Ahhhh.

I'm tempted to buy one just because of it's design/uniqueness and relatively low price.

"Music to my Ears" would be a good engraving, but I don't think I'd get an engraving just in case I wanted to sell it?

For this id use the 3rd party plug-in Melodyne, but that cost over $500.
There could be cheaper plug-ins, search for autotune or something.

Or i suppose you could copy the notes you need to change to a separate track and change the pitch of the track... now thats thinking outside the box ey..

I've been a very satisfied customer of .Mac since its inception. I receive zero spam e-mails and I am delighted with the ability to create aliases. On top of that there is no advertising at all. I also have a couple of other web-mail accounts and they get zillions of spam messages even with their respective anti-spam filters turned on. I think that this update adds a little bit more polish on an already decent offering. I do agree with a previous poster that the iCal integration needs some work.

That's true, I have received VERY little spam, and what i do receive gets put right into junk mail. I have 2 to 3 email addresses forwarded to my .mac account (those 2 to 3 do receive spam) but i still get very little in my Mail.app or webmail. good point, because if anyone has ever used hotmail, that crap gets annoying fast.

In the world of print, there are two ways to receive newspapers and magazines: single copies on the newsstand, or via subscription delivery. Subscription delivery is traditionally a lot cheaper than via the newsstand. The main reason for that is because the publisher knows demographic information about you, and they use that information to attract advertisers to the publication. They don't get that value from the anonymous newsstand purchaser, so prices are accordingly higher. Each issue of the publication is subsidized by the advertisers. (It costs a fortune to put together a world-class publication, paying writers and editors and designers and running the company.)

These publishers want to continue to encourage people to subscribe to their electronic version by offering a lower price... they can only afford to do this by continuing to collect demographic user information that they can use to attract advertisers who will subsidize the cost of the publication. They will probably offer single issues online (or maybe even subscriptions online) at higher prices than the normal subscription to people who don't share their information. Your information is worth money, they know that and their advertisers know that, and you should know that too. If you withhold your information, you are holding back money, and thus asking for something for less. (Will you get it? How nicely are you asking?)

All this talk about selling email addresses to third parties is speculation and red herrings. This is about subsidizing subscriptions and paying for content. It's the business of the subscription publishing industry, and Apple wants to change it. Change isn't inherently good or bad, but in this case change would mean either reduced content/quality or higher prices.

:d

Is it possible to inject a new or replace a existing resource file inside a signed package using packagemaker? if so could some one help me how that can be done?

Using this one right now, pumped for the movie and can't find any of my Christmas themed wallpapers right now.

I have a couple of thoughts here:

1) Apple developers are forgetting about their own UI guidelines. Rather than using a button like "Upgrade" or "Open MobileMe Preferences", they use the generic OK label that could mean anything.

2) They are being lazy during development, and the wording will be changed before the official release.

If Apple wasn't doing something creepy for advertising purposes, they were at least thinking about it.

Google's slogan is what, "Don't be evil?" They don't always succeed. I'd suggest one thing to Apple "Don't be Google."

Well, it looks like it wasn't a bug after all. It was coded as per the patent application. :D

I have a pair of the apple II 5.25" disk drives in excellent condition. They both have the rainbow cable, not the gray one.

Any idea on what the value would be.

Thank you.

I'm about to replace the hard drive in a 17" iMac G4 800. When I take the old one out (80 GB Ultra ATA 100), will it be able to work in a Power Mac G4 "Sawtooth" (AGP)?

Just not sure about the technicalities of HD backward compatibility. I think the drive in the first drive bay is an ATA/66.

Only issue I want fixed is wifi. Disconnects a lot.

other than the regular router issues between devices of different manufacturers, there is an old wifi bug that dates back to the first ipad. when it goes to sleep it doesn't release the IP after the half life of the lease like it's supposed to according to open standards. the router ends up assigning it to another device

Wasn't this supposed to have push notifications?

Strangely enough you can get push from the people you follow but not @'s and direct messages.

ok I bought T2 and can't find how to see conversational views. Simplytweet is very ease to see conversational views. How do I access this in tweetie 2?

I do like the look

Go to tweet and click "in reply to" button.

"meh" is the word that comes to mind.

Simple and clean, how I'd like my mind to be lately

Where can I get this...?

I actually would consider buying it.. if the price was right. the iCade I mean

Haha! Pawnage. Don't agree with your politics but that's some funny shite right there.

As for the poll, it's a shame it didn't include the option "No, because it's really tragic looking"

On my personal work laptop, which luckily I really do not need much more than ARD and Windows 7:

Overpriced. These games are ancient and most of them don't offer much gameplay at all. Plus it cost atari essentially nothing to put this app out. If they made it $0.99 for the hundred pack then it'd be no-brainer, we'd buy it just for the nostalgia alone. I could conceivably see paying up to $4.99 for the hundred pack for the very small handful of games that are actually worth playing. But $14.99 for these junky games? No way.

p.s., I'm not saying all old games are bad, quite the contrary, there are a lot of fantastic old games that still hold up well, but the atari era of games were especially crappy.

randy, are you concluding this is false advertising?

No, the post I responded to talked about false advertising. I'm concluding two things:
1) Just because something isn't criminal doesn't mean it isn't illegal.
2) You don't necessarily need a grand jury to bring a criminal charge.

These conclusions have nothing to do with the ebay listing. The poster I responded to said something about a grand jury and false advertising.

Edit: As an "armchair lawyer," I would probably just sue for restitution. For the other armchair lawyers: Yes, restitution is a cause of action.

Apple already has its own database. It dropped Google's location services with release of iOS 4.

Take out your iPhone. Open up maps. Look at a map. Look in the lower left-hand side of the screen. What does it say riiiiight above the compass arrow button?

No... that would kind of defeat the purpose of the installer being signed...

Why not? The USA for example has only 4 million miles of roads. A car with driver + passenger + some decent equipment should be able to map say 10 miles per hour, at a cost of $50 per hour. 200 cars for a year, that's 20 million dollars. And then you have a database that you can sell, and that you can use everywhere. Then write an iPhone app that lets users make corrections, lets businesses add their locations etc. and you are ready.

As a driver in North America, rather than just the US, let's make that an extra million miles to include Canada and Mexico. Canada seems well served by most map services but Mexico is not. Most map services seem to leave out gas stations in Mexico, a rather basic need.

According to differnet regions, I think.

Doubtful since their warranty does not transfer to a second hand buyer. If I were to buy an iPod and then sell it on ebay a few weeks later the new owner would not be covered.
Is this specific to iPad and iPod? The standard warranty most certainly transfers, since I have bought a Powerbook long ago on CraigsList and used the warranty to get repairs.
