So-called Christian claims kidney

Morons.org printed this morning an article of A woman who gave a kidney to a 20-year-old College student wants her kidney back because the recipient decided to drop her Christian Faith. More on the topic in LarkNews

African watersupply

This is a great incentive for communities with poor water-supply to make merry-go-rounds. Kids run waterpumps by playing! Good stuff! I'm not to certain about a water-wheel, though. I imagine it hurts backs and is incredibly uncomfortable. But then again I haven't tried a two-digit number kilos of water on my head either. Thanks to aWholeLotANothing for pointing me to them

Blog up

I needed to post this somewhere, so I made a blog. Home blog. Hooray... better than my old html-page with weblog-like-contents. Anyways, reason I couldn't use my old roller blog was that I needed a TrackBack. But hey, the blog I wanted to refer has no trackback-support either. Argh! 5 minutes wasted. ;-) Anyways, this Apple-blog told me version 10.3.4 of OS X is out. Good stuff. It's just general blah-blah, but this is what I'm hoping for:
improved disc burning and recording functionality, DVD+R(W) coming? My drive is really a DVD+/-RW but is locked to DVD-R only. Way to go Apple. ;-)
additional FireWire audio and USB device compatibility, can I now finally hook up my Nomad Jukebox 3? I was happy when I read Apple supported it with iTunes, only to find out that they only supported version 1.0. Now I'm hoping. :) (update installing)

D\'oh

Nope, didn't work. However, Creative Labs sais it should work. It's funny, because so do most stores selling it too. I guess just we customers don't understand how to use it with iTunes, because lots of people have asked questions how to, and no good answers

Update again

Burning the midnight oil here. Seems Creative has an unsupported plugin that not too many know about. It's an iTunes plugin for the Nomad Jukeboxes. If someone had given this to me ages ago, I'd already been very happy for ages. Anyways, I'm very happy now. Thanks to the guys at NomadNess for helping out on this

That worked

Now, that seems to have worked. But, Mozilla Firebird under Fedora seems not to understand much of the CSS on my page, leaving the header standing over my image instead on top of. Oh well...

Blog revival

Right, if you've been following my blog you might have been a little discouraged getting the 500 HTTP-error for about a month. Well, short story shorter: I wrote a velocity macro that had an error that brought Roller down. Removing the macro hard from the db didn't work, so it wasn't until today I could be bothered starting it from scratch. Oh well... I might put back a bit of the old content. We'll see... :)

Mobile phone for the blind

My daily RSS feed brought me an article on a mobile phone for the blind, which I thought was neat. I'd love to hear how these things work in reality as I figured voice would always be to much hassle and it would interface with the user through something they could read
