Apparently now I can send MMS messages on my iPhone. Now all I need to do is figure out why I would ever do that instead of using email.
Dangit iTunes, I said DO NOT AUTODELETE.
Glad to see I’m not the only one having trouble with iTunes Connect. I knew that twitter search box would be useful one day.
RT: @hotdogsladies Just for reference: every time you type “RT,” I yell “BOK!” then read the rest in a super-annoying squeaky parrot voice.
Just got a vaguely menacing email from Apple telling me it was my last chance to buy their “Protection Plan.”
This woman is the mayor of Wellford, a town a couple of miles west of where I live. Glad I don’t live there. http://icanhaz.com/crazymayor
Just finished The Colour of Magic. And you say there are more than 30 of these Discworld novels? *Excellent.*
Chan alerted me to this diabolical plot in IRC: http://images.salon.com/comics/boll/2009/09/17/boll/story.jpg
Just got back from my little brother’s party. I made six pizzas from scratch. Next time, I want a second oven.
I give up. You win today, source code, but tomorrow I’m gonna come and kick your ass.
The Torians—the galaxy’s most prolific breeders-just surrendered to me. The new taxpayers reversed my deficit. Now making buckets of money.
Hey, you know that problem I mentioned yesterday? Found a trivially easy fix for it today! Sleep is awesome.
Woohoo! New version of FoodPad is complete and submitted to the App Store. Now, to wait for them to OK it and send it out to the world.
Made peace with the Torians; must stop the vastly more powerful Thalan Empire from ascending to godhood. #galciv2
Also, the United Planets can die in a fire. Limiting evil civilizations to just one trade route… grumblegrumble. #galciv2
Geez. I either need a job or for Apple to actually start *paying* me for my iPhone app. Or both.
Russia declares Programmer Day, the 256th day of the year. Cool! http://icanhaz.com/programmerday
Don’t forget: This saturday is Pretend to Be a Time Traveler Day. http://icanhaz.com/timetravel
Sorry about Joe Wilson you guys. SC sucks at picking politicians. And at educating kids. And at running businesses. We have a few problems.
“Christ, we’ve become a nation of magpies.” http://icanhaz.com/magpies -MeFi user on Joe “Liar” Wilson’s derailing the health care debate.
This is neat: Highlight a congressman’s name, click the button, and get info on them (like who gave them money). http://icanhaz.com/ktc
On the other hand, my town is setting up a 20,000 square foot art co-op in an old church, which is cool. http://icanhaz.com/artcoop
Ooh, cool! Threadless T-Shirts are all $9 today!
Watching “Love’s Abiding Joy” with family. Possibly the worst movie I’ve ever seen.
My brother and sister-in-law adopted an adorable little puppy! http://yfrog.com/0270zj
Just got the I Don’t Know What I’m Doing album from @bradsucks. Man, his music is all awesome. His newer CD is amazing too.
Snow Leopard finally catches up to Windows on one key feature: There is now a “put back” button for things in the trash for easy undeleting.
*STILL* no “sort by date deleted” feature in Snow Leopard’s Trash though. Come on Apple, when are you gonna catch up?
Also, the old default font in XCode was Monaco if you want to switch it back. I find that Menlo just hurts my eyes.
iPhone Developers & Snow Leopard: Install BOTH XCode 3.2 from the DVD & the new iPhone SDK or you will get hundreds of strange errors.
