- For fun, it seems like there are a bunch of people here huddled around the lone Windows XP box, trying to make a movie. It’s amusing when you find bugs like these: Movie Maker 2 Stops Responding when you try to save a large movie file. iMovieHD seemed to have a better chance. What are our good Linux tools?
- To annoy me today (its been happening fairly regularly), OS X will give me a spinning beach ball everytime I move networks and have a share mounted. Here’s my situation: samba share running some ancient RHL version, mounted via the Networks panel. I am on WiFi at home, and when I go out, sometimes I turn the WiFi off (say I’m in a “lousy” cafe, or a “silly” airport), and if my share was mounted, it will just go ape shit on me. Restarting the machine seems to be the only way out. Point to remember is that Safari (which I occasionally use) doesn’t even have a save all these tabs feature on next reload. Who said Linux wasn’t more feature-ful? Never happened on Linux this has (sure df will hang, as will mount, but a quick sudo umount will solve it for me).
- Thunderbird: anyone use this and realise that for IMAP accounts, the filters seem to disappear sometimes? I can’t quite reproduce this well, but its getting significantly annoying to find my Inbox grow.
- Otherwise, caught Flightplan, and the 40 year old virgin. Former was an excellent show, latter was, err, bleh.
