Now that’s a pan! | Metafilter This has been picked up on some other blogs, but I had to post it here - MeFi has picked up on the New Yorker’s less-than-stellar review of Phantom of the Opera and the comments thread has some links to other reviews that had me laughing out loud.

Linux for the iPod…

Posted on December 29th, 2004 in Unfiled by stickyc || 1 Comment

Main Page - WikiPodLinux

This page provides the details of an open source venture into porting Linux onto the iPod (http://www.apple.com/ipod/). So far, we have successfully ported a customized uClinux (http://www.uclinux.org) kernel to the iPod, and written a simple user interface for it dubbed podzilla. Many additional Applications have been written, adding many capabilities not found in Apple’s firmware.
Very slick. I was under the impression from Adam Currey’s podcast that they’d implemented high-bitrate recording, but I must have mis-heard it. That it runs uCLinux apps is excellent.

How to fix Mom’s computer [Scribbling.net] Alas, I found this just a few days too late, but still an excellent step-by-step on cleaning up a horribly crippled machine. Like most folks, at least a couple of hours of my Christmas day was spent doing tech support on the family machines. And on that subject, a pox on the house of HP for having such miserable USB printer support!

Journey Through Inner Space Tribute Site

Posted on December 18th, 2004 in Unfiled by stickyc || No Comment

This site features the sights, sound and flash animation of Disney’s much missed attraction in Disneyland California’s Tomorrowland (now replaced with Star Tours). I have created this site from my own collection of media from auctions on ebay to my own personal ATIS material. Adventure Thru Inner Space web site was in the making for over the span of 8 years.
