iMovie Error -49 When Exporting

If you're getting an error code -49 when exporting a movie from iMovie, turn off Time Machine temporarily.

Correct me where I'm wrong. There's a strong biological component to homosexuality in human beings. Nature (or "choice") plays a small role. There's no one "gay gene" or anything, but human sexuality is a complex mix of things, but genetics and biology play an incredibly large role in determining someone's hetero- or homo-sexuality.

What to Do When Xcode Beachballs: Shift+Ctrl+Alt+Cmd+Period Love it!

At first glance you might think "gee, I need to get some of those shoes!" But in reality, I'm again reminded of a study where people jumped from various heights onto a bed of cushioning below. The cushioning was the same, but when told the cushioning was firmer, they'd land more softly, and when told […]

A good article: Designing the Packaging-Free Future | Wired Design | Wired.com. What has impressed me about Apple for the past ten years is that they're relentlessly reducing packaging while almost simultaneously improving (or at least maintaining) the "unboxing experience." I don't know of another company that can say the same thing, or is even […]

Bobby Bonilla apparently knows this. SAN JUAN, P.R.—One year from today*, the Mets will add to their payroll a 47-year-old, past-his-prime power hitter who has a reputation as a malcontent—a player who has been retired from professional baseball for nine years and won't play another game again.

What are the best ways to score the least expensive airline tickets? For example, if I fly to San Diego from Erie, PA on April 11 and want to return on April 15, when should I buy the tickets? What day, using what methods? I know to spoof a Windows browser. I've heard that. How […]

Much more is written about this here, but basically: Regulation Time Win: 3 Points Overtime/Shootout Win: 2 Points Overtime/Shootout Loss: 1 Point Regulation Time Loss: 0 Points DO IT! 🙂

Master Pickpocket at Work

Holy cow. This makes Parker on Leverage look small time.

Pebbles are Shipping

Pebbles are shipping! And here's the review from The Verge. I don't know when my two will ship (I have an arctic white and a jet black coming), but I hope they ship soon. 🙂

Alternative Browsers

BTW, since I mentioned Safari yesterday, I've looked at other browsers that still exist for Mac OS X. I'm hoping the comments can fill with others. Of course, many people know about OmniWeb. Camino is still around, as is, oddly, iCab. Those are the first three that sprang to mind, but I imagine there are […]

Don Melton on Safari

I've been enjoying Don Melton's posts lately. For example: Keeping Safari a secret and Safari is released to the world. Good gosh Safari is old. I'm old. Wow.
