Safari 1.0 background-repeat CSS bug…

September 8, 2003

I’ve been fighting with CSS all afternoon at work trying to get background-repeat to render properly. Turns out Safari 1.0 is broken.

Final Cut Pro 3 – Managing Timecode Breaks

September 3, 2003

When filming video with MiniDV cameras are you the type of person who immediately rewinds and watches the most recent clip just to make sure the pervious shot was perfect? If so, you may inadvertently introduce timecode breaks to your source video. A timecode break happens when the tape is not perfectly cued for the […]

DRM license transfer…

Let’s see what Apple has to say about reselling music from the iTunes Music Store on eBay. I wonder how long the auction will last before it gets canceled.

More email archive madness…

After my initial question to Ask Slashdot was rejected, I started doing research on possible search engines and mail archivers. Fortunately, a very similar question was posed to Ask Slashdot yesterday that covers some of the basics of my task.

  • When counting calories watch out for reporting loops in your Apps.
    Weight loss isn’t magic. Simply eat less calories than you burn. Easy peasy. That is unless you inadvertently sabotage yourself by getting too geeky and try to use too many nutrition and weight loss Apps to track and manage your progress. I found out the hard way that it’s best to Keep it Simple (Stupid). […]
  • Trunkmonkey Racing Ghetto Wheel Truing using Zipties
    After 10 miles of rough trail riding on the old 1992 GT Karakoram Full Rigid my slightly out-of-true wheel became a significantly out-of-true wheel with a bent spoke; it was rubbing brake pad in four locations. I guess my fat ass bombing a downhill full of fist-sized loose rocks and small boulders was a bad […]
