05/11/2004 02:57 PMAdobe has released a
Ph
otoshop CS update that fixes two bugs which occur when the
application is used in Mac OS X v.10.2.4 or higher on Macs with
multiple processors. One problem caused image corruption when rotating
bitmap images while the other issued a program error when using the
Magic Wand tool. Both are now fixed with this update, which is a free
download from the Adobe Web site for registered users (an Adobe ID is
required). The company notes that it won't have an effect on Macs with
configurations other than the one cited.

Adobe Photoshop CS2 and Adobe Bridge
Adobe Photoshop CS2 and Adobe Bridge
06/17/2005 07:13 PMFor most graphic artists, Adobe's applications are their bread and
butter. Adobe Creative Suite 2 recently hit the streets, but is it
worth paying the price to upgrade? We have a comprehensive look at
Photoshop CS2 along with Bridge, an image browser which "connects" the
Creative Suite 2 applications.
In Photoshop 7, Adobe added a file browser to Photoshop
and let it chill for two versions seeing if it would get better with
age (it didn't). It was a good idea but weird in Photoshop, a really
document-centric program. Now, they've taken it out of Photoshop, made
it an independent program to act as a connector between apps much like
say, a concrete passageway or a road above water.
It makes a lot more sense this way since it was really out of place
as a floating window inside the Photoshop interface. Adobe has added a
favorites and collections pane in addition to the basic file system
browsing, chocked it full of features to interact with other Adobe
apps and added an interactive thumbnail zoom that works much like
iPhoto's.
Of course, there are plenty of other apps on both Windows and Mac
OS X that perform the same function (GraphicConverter represent!). Is
the combination of some spiffy new features in Photoshop CS2 and the
new Bridge enough to make an upgrade worthwhile? There's only one way
to find out...

Conferences with Macs
Conferences with Macs
04/09/2004 04:08 PMThree reasons Macs make excellent companions to geek-centric
conferences:
- iChat and Rendezvous. iChat uses Rendezvous
(aka zero configuration networking) to automatically display a list of
all other iChat users on the same network as you. In a conference
setting this can be a great way of seeing who's around - I met a
couple of people at SxSW who I'd been hoping to run in to by
co-ordinating a metting via iChat. A few panelists even used iChat to
take questions during their panels. Here's a
screenshot of iChat Rendezvous taken during SxSW.
- SubEthaEdit, which really has to be seen to be believed. I made a half hearted
attempt to get a SubEthaEdit session going at SxSW but failed to
achieve critical mass. Ted Leung at PyCon seems to have got it sussed.
- EtherPEG.
This isn't as essential as the other two but can be a lot of fun -
it's an ethical (as in it doesn't steal anything important) network
sniffer which displays a selection of images currently being
transferred across the network. It provides an often surreal insight
in to the browsing habits of other conference goers.
I remember hearing Mac owners complain of being treated like
second-class citizens. I haven't felt like that once in nearly three
months of owning a Mac.

It could also be mistaken for a 1950's-era toaster. Somebody ought
to fill Alienware in on the fact that good design costs no more than
bad design. And producing professional looking hardware — like

09/20/2004 02:53 AMMy wife and I went to a work related party last night which turned
out to be pretty boring. So much for the $70.00 spent on tickets. We
left early and knew that the sitter was good to go decided to drop in
on a friend of hers.
We get to her house and I am admiring her house and see a big
Master Degree in Education hanging over her computer. I was surprised
to see it actually as we have known her for a while and she had never
mentioned it. Anyway to make a long story short she says hey my PC is
having problems can you look at it.
You guessed it 2 hours later and much under breath cursing I give
up and tell her I need to take it home or we can just pull the restore
disk out and start from scratch. I get this deer in the headlights
look when I explain that her computer has been hijacked and is
infected with nearly every piece of spyware known to man.
1. Virus Definitions 2 years old
2. She had never run Windows Update.
3. Systems is plugged directly into cable modem
4. No Spyware detection software
5. No Firewall
Remember now she has a Masters Degree in Education. She commented I
should open a business and fix peoples computers like hers. I guess my
21+ years working with advanced electronics now makes me qualified to
fix computers. I suppose I could charge her $750.00 for a days worth
of work. All I could do was smile and say drop it by the house and I
will get it fixed for you...
All my wife could say when we left was sorry. I hate stupid
educated people. Sometimes being a geek sucks.

Monroe County Family Court Judge Marilyn O'Connor ruled March 31
that two parents "should not have yet another child which must
be cared for at public expense." Unconstitutional?
Maybe. But not sufficiently so for the
NY
ACLU to say
much anything about it.
Maybe the Judge could have recommended the same sex-ed scheme that
shows, in parts of England and Wales where it [called A Pause] was
trialled in 104 schools, sexual intercourse among 16-year-olds fell by
up to 20 per cent.
Now that may mean we have to have
more
discussion of oral and manual, with less genital-genital emphasis.
Anything that promotes the right to say 'no' amongst vulnerable young
folks is alright by me.
Why JSP Sucks So Hard
Why JSP Sucks So Hard
12/19/2002 11:43 PMonce again my UI engineers will be taking perfectly good HTML
written in Dreamweaver and tearing it apart, throwing out some of it
and rewriting other parts of it, just to make it work with the JSP
they're writing. Once they're done, the HTML author will have
absolutely no clue what the page does any more, and will have no
desire or ability to edit it. When we insist that no really we need
this redesigned, we'll spend twice as long doing it (doubling our
costs, negative ROI, bad technology choice, yadda yadda yadda) since
the HTML author will need that long to write in sample data and then
have the JSP author tear it out again. -- Marc Hedlund

want to use the hot corners (I already have them overloaded with
Exposé and I want to have the top left corner free so I don't have to
worry about counting pixels when I try and access the Apple menu), but
so far the best way to lock the Powerbook is to go and turn the lid
down and then back up again. which turns on the screen saver (and
stops iTunes, BTW, since the computer goes to sleep for a second).
I know there are Mac people reading me, so please: tell me which key
combination I have to use, or which freeware application I have to
install to just be able to press Apple-F12 to lock the computer! I've
been trying to find the info from Google, but apparently I haven't
been able to figure out the right keywords.
Frustrated now!
(Sorry for the headline, just wanted to grab your attention there. My
Mac Powerbook does NOT suck, it is a wonderful little machine and I
grow more attached to it every day. It is by far the best computer
I've ever owned. I just need this one thing to make it perfect.

Passym sucks
Passym sucks
01/22/2004 03:17 AMTonight is my second night in an Embassy Suites with Passym
Wireless internet access, and I have to say that Passym really
sucks.
Connectivity is just horrible. I don't know why the service sucks
so badly... it might be because I'm in a corner room (they're larger
at the Embassy Suites) or it might be because I'm using a Macintosh,
but neither of those two things should be reasons that the
connectivity sucks so badly...
Maybe there are too many people using the service to keep up with
what I want to do, but that shouldn't be a problem. I've normally
stayed in Wyndham and Marriot hotels with Wayport access, and even
though most of the time those hotels only provide wired access, they
always worked just fine. I could connect to my office's VPN at the
most complicated end of connectivity issues, and I could definitely
send email through my own servers, but with this silly Passym service,
I can't connect to the VPN and I can't even send email through my own
service... and the speeds are terribly slow compared to what I expect
them to be... especially at $10/day.
The worst part is that to get technical support, I'm supposed to
email their support@ email address... no one here at the hotel knows
anything about the service from a technical/troubleshooting
stand-point, and I can't get email out through my email client. Good
thing I have a webmail client set up on my server...
So, next time I stay in a hotel, I'll ask them if they have
internet access, and I'll ask who the provider is. If it's Passym,
I'll choose a different hotel if internet connectivity will be a
need.
