This is only temporary until I can get a nice wireless logitech keyboard, the only thing I hate about it is that some of the characters are in other places, or not there at all. Brackets are not marked on the keys for instance.

Anybody know a good lightweight font viewer? I'm playing around in several applications and having a quick program to boot up to easily view a font would be very useful.

This IPv6 talk is amazing. "IPv6 is the proved answer. It is already sitting there, in your laptop. If you're running a Linux derivitive, you already have IPv6. If you're running OS X, you already have IPv6. If you're running most Windows variants, you have IPv6 and what are you doing here?" And then the crowd laughs their asses off.

Just remembered a funny thing out of the blue: I was passing through a gamestop to see if they had a copy of a free gamin magazine (they didn't, Crap) and i saw that thay had a 3DS in a plastic box I walked over to see how the 3D was since i had not tried one before. I stood there for a little while and didn't notice anything. So looked at the 3D slider and saw that it was turned fully off Explain to me the fact of having a large stand loudly proclaiming advanced hand held 3d Tech, and having that tech turned of, Essentially turning it into a normal DS

Oh man have I had a day worth telling you about. It was basically a constant stream of near-content. Let's start with the class. I have "Storyboarding for Animation" on Tuesdays/Thursdays, which has both a very, VERY bad teacher and a very bad name. It's basically "How to Use Flash 101". Seriously, we've never done an actual storyboard, and the last day of class is Thursday. So I was working on my final project, which I've been working at for a few days already. Had so many problems: 1) Flash runs like crap. I had a very simple 2-keyframe tweened animation that lasted about 8 minutes (I was going to go back in and add detail later). Except that made Flash run impossibly slowly - I'm talking "click something, wait 30 seconds, continue". So Adobe seems like content, right? Well, on a hunch, I redo it using Motion tweens instead of the Classic tweens my instructor taught us to use, and it works just fine. So who's content here - Adobe, for keeping a feature that badly-implemented around, or the teacher, for telling us to use it? 2) After spending about 3 hours on the project (did about 5 hours over the past week, too) I realize I've done about 2 minutes of a 10-minute movie, and half of that was the title sequence, and I can't draw worth shit for the rest. So, after a short panic, I figure I'll make a game instead. Sure, the teacher never taught us any Actionscript besides "gotoAndPlay()", but how hard can it be? 2 hours later, I've got a relatively playable Galaga-type game, and I'll have 5 hours on Thursday to polish it up. Really need to tighten up the graphics on level 3 :D So, does that make me content, for trying to make an epic-length movie without the skills, or does it make me awesome for learning a programming language and writing a full game in 2 hours? 3) After class, I had a Network Security Club meeting. We'll be running a small LAN party soon (UT99!), so we were trying to set up all that, when we hear what sounds like a stampede upstairs. Then I noticed the ground was shaking. Yep, earthquake. Got everybody under a door frame for a minute. Only damage was 1) the front panel on one of the servers fell off and 2) the monitor precariously balanced on top of the servers was no longer precariously balanced. That's not the content. The content was all the East Coast morons panicking over a 5.9 earthquake. I heard stuff like "So when is the building going to fall down?" (the glass windows didn't even break) and "Where should we hide from the tidal wave?" (we're about 100 miles from the ocean). Now, while definitely content, that wasn't computer-related content. So it doesn't count. 4) After the meeting, I had an interview scheduled for an internship. Google Maps showed a simple route that would take 20 minutes, and hit no toll roads. I didn't feel like printing it out, so I just plugged it into my GPS (I borrowed my parent's for a day) in the car instead. Well, it sent me down 2 toll roads, took half an hour, and sent me to the wrong place (E Main Street instead of W Main Street). While going between the two, it sent me down a toll road for half a mile, sent me down a closed road (fair enough), mispronounced "Byrd Street" as "Brid Street", and, finally, tried to send me down a pedestrian-only road. I eventually parked and just walked the last two blocks, because it refused to recalculate the route. Total time: 65 minutes. I believe that's the first example in this thread of "Illiterate computer that thinks it knows things". 5) I get to the place, and talk to the manager. It's a double-business thing - there's a small computer repair shop (lot of iPhones being fixed), and there's a small web-dev place. I would be interning at the web side, doing SEO stuff (or so I was told), but the manager only did the repair side. So he called the owner, who handles the websites, and I do a phone interview. I drove a fucking hour for a phone call! Maybe not content, but that's a real WTF. 6) Anyways, the "interview" ended up being just a job description. From what I gathered, the owner includes social marketing as "Search Engine Optimization" - I'll be updating clients' Facebook pages and whatnot. Not exactly the best use of my technical skills, but hey, the guy said normal working hours are midnight to 4, and that I'll mostly be working from home. The extent of the "interview" was "Yes, I have good spelling and grammar." Still, I have strong suspicions the job may produce content, since I've never before heard "tweeting about company site" referred to as Search Engine Optimization. I checked their website out (not linking it yet, don't know if new boss will find out), and it doesn't seem too content-worthy, besides the terrible filter-rape mousovers. And they even mention Linux support. HTML is pretty well-formed - other than some messed up quoting (<span style=&quot;display:inline;&quot;>) and some weird attributes (<meta name="Revisit-After" content="" 5="" days="" />). Uses CSS and <div> properly, not a <table> in sight. Anyways, how was your day?
