Mac OS X Bug, HOT again, & Hypotheticallly...
OS
Bug Locating Champion of the world
If there’s a sound bug in an OS, trust me, I’m sure to find it.
Today I had an appointment at the local Apple Store Genius Bar, to show them a problem I’d hoped they had seen/fixed before. Namely, my PowerBook randomly loses its system sounds upon wake from sleep, and only a restart can cure it. It’s not every time, it’s quite random and intermittent, and I have not been able to detect a ‘trigger’ for it.
And, apparently, neither can they.
Funny thing is, I found a similar problem with a PowerMac Tower I used to have. On that one, if you used the digital out port, say playing a DVD or something, after you used the digital out port, you couldn’t get system sounds to play. Only a restart would cure it.
How do I hate Southern California? Let me COUNT the ways…
95. 95 of them. Late April, and it was 95º.
Yeah, I’m looking forward to wearing a jacket. Hell, I’m looking forward to wearing something other than shorts and flip-flops. It’s too hot right now for anything else, and if you think otherwise, um, think again. Try once more.
How to tell if you’re boyfriend is smart
OK, so hypothetically, let’s say you’re a girl (unless you really are, in which case…. Are you sure?). Let’s say you’re driving to work, and you call your lovely, handsome, tall, well-muscled, genius of a fiancé (that’d be someone like me, say, hypothetical me) to inform him that you think you need an alignment because your truck seems to be pulling real hard to the right all of a sudden. Say – hypothetically of course – that he tells you to check your tires, one of them is probably going flat. Hypothetically. Now, say that you continue to talk about how bad the alignment is, and how it turns really hard one direction, and not so hard the other. Say your boyfriend tells you to check your tires, over the phone, 20 miles away, because one of them is probably going flat.
Now, hypothetically, say you get to work and say goodbye. How does your smart, highly-intelligent, well-muscled, handsome boyfriend know when his phone rings 30 seconds later, that it’s you, calling to say “MY TIRE IS FLAT”?
Let’s say he had a hunch. Let’s just say. Hypothetically, of course. Yeah. Hypothetically.
Peace.
