only time i'm going to post that offer :mad:

Your signature keeps saying you left, left again, left again again, yet you keep posting and getting mad at people.

Try Holy Water, or better still, restoring it.

Maybe he'll get a permanent segment on Jimmy Fallon's show.

Watching the Engadget Show and when he's on Jimmy Fallon, he does seem to do well in front of the camera.

shame to see him go. he is one of the better tech writers out there in my opinion. makes me wonder what engadget will be like without him.

I'll record however is best, I think the 4gb would be ideal, it's either that or applecare at initial purchase, but if i can wait for applecare I will

That's a promotion that apple runs during the summer and ends in September.

If you have an external drive I recommend time machine. You can back up your entire system and then restore after your clean installation. That includes apps and files.

You could also use something like Carbon Copy Cloner to make a full image of your disk.

Failing that all you can do is back up your files to another location or disk and re-install your applications after the clean install.

I have a Mid 2007 (white) MacBook, but the "pins 3 and 9" they referred to did work on mine: they're the pins where the keyboard connects to the motherboard (the pins you're looking for are actually on the motherboard, in a little rectangular connector). In the case of mine, they're the pins on the very left side of it, looking from the top. Hope this helps!

Based on personal experience, it's reliable (as in, I've never lost a file). I've even reformatted my Mac and restored it perfectly with a Time Machine backup. It's really only a pain when you make changes to a file quite often (in that you have to search through several different versions to find the one you want).

As you've said, you've got an offsite backup. Which means you've essentially got three copies of your system around (the mac, the time machine backup, the offsite backup). That's about as safe a system as you can ask for.

Hello,

I have to head south to Windsor, I was going to hit up a store in Toronto.

Ah well.. goodies is goodies.

The same company also makes iStat Menus (http://bjango.com/mac/istatmenus/). Might be what you are looking for.

I have a PDF file that was created from MS Word 2008 using the usual File->Print->PDF->Save as PDF routine. It renders fine in Preview and Adobe Reader, but apparently gets mangled by other applications that try to extract text from it.

I think this is due to the "/Filter /FlateDecode" compression, so I'd like to make a version of the document without compression that should be easier to extract plan text from.

I found an article on what seems to be the opposite, i.e. compressing a PDF using quartz filters in Preview. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/9021.html

Is there something I could do to undo this?

Thanks!

I would suggest not saying that you want an unlocked one. It's very easy to do yourself. Since most people seem to think that unlocking it adds $150-250 extra to the price, I would steer clear of having someone else press the "unlock" button for you.

I couldn't stop laughing these prank e-mails are hilarious.

thanks for all the offers. I have bought a copy from nintendude, paid today. Thanks

No it's not for VzW

If you are using FCP you should have QT Pro which means you can encode to an h.264 mov and and many other things.

If you don't have QT Pro you can purchase as a standalone upgrade from QT for $30. All you do is buy a Serial Number from Apples Website, and open QT's preferences and enter it. You're DONE. Not QT-X this is a newer version of quicktime but doesn't have a pro version yet.

Now fore people that are stuck PC's. And instead of creating some type of h.264 encoded video.

Get Flip4Mac. This is a plugin for QT Pro that adds another option for encoding to Windows Media. That way there is no problems viewing on a PC.

Also you can export right from FCP using QT conversion exporting and choose Windows Media option and adjust settings that fits you.

I've just run your CV through my parser and it's extracted the raw text fine. It has broken up the text into individual words rather than flowed properly into whole sentences, this is common though with PDFs. Any device which interprets PDFs will always encounter this problem, some deal with it by intelligently reflowing the text after conversion.

It may be this which is causing some online parsers to reject it?

Can't see anything specifically wrong with the file, all the fonts are embedded properly.

Yeah, you save petrol by using your AC, but that's only at higher speeds. At lower speeds, say under 60-70kph, or around 40 mph, it doesn't really matter if you use your AC or just open your windows. Don't bother opening your windows on the highway, though.

It's always good to view things with a critical eye. Once the science is thoroughly proven, however, it's time to move on. Let's move on to solutions.

PS. I have a chicken coop in the backyard for rent to any Mexican or Floridian who can get his ass up here.

I don't understand why they'd be worried about miners "isolating" themselves. I mean, isn't it good to have distractions, so that fights don't break out?

Week 1: Read Python; familiarize self with scripting language semantics/syntax
Week 2-4: Learn PHP; obviously begin with what you learned from Python and build from there. Start to look at object-oriented PHP materials.
Week 5: Begin SQL query writing; queries aren't so difficult if you know your PHP material well. The better at coding you are, the better your query writing will be.

Eventually, you'll want to get into content management systems and MVC frameworks - this, outside of object oriented programming, is the biggest mountain to climb, but it is well worth it in the long run as all of your hard work will pay off. These two things will take a long time to learn so don't fret if you don't understand it all from the very beginning.

Also, like someone else said, make sure your design is consistent across different browsers. Since you are learning, you're probably looking at a lot of divs and what not. Divs are nifty, but browsers don't agree with them 90% of the time. This means grabbing a copy of Windows, downloading Internet Explorer 6, 7, 8, and 9 to make sure everything looks correct. This is one of every designer/developers biggest complaints and why Internet Explorer is hated beyond words.
