When you open a franchise
be the first in Oregon and do it in the rain, when people are fed up and want to get outside. We have a Sonic Burger now, first one in oregon, so Elizabeth and I went by last night. They have drive in stalls, like the 50s. Two rows of cars backed up, the parking… Continue reading When you open a franchise

Apple wants to fix your Mac

Hacking the Vote
Interesting HBO documentary on the insecurity innate in the Diebold voting machines. It doesn’t matter who abuses these systems, the fact it is so easy to abuse them is horrific, considering people are dying today for our right to a democracy and to vote. Watch
Vote flipping reported in early voting
Read Draw your own conclusions. As much as I am a geek, these closed system e-voting machines are pretty scary. It would be very easy to affect this election with the crappy system these people have developed.
Aperture trial

Resulting Aperture library is about 1gb larger than the iPhoto library. If you’re into photography and especially if you shoot… Continue reading Aperture trial

Happy Birthday, iPod!
Apple’s iPod turns 5 today. Amazing. 5 years ago Apple was slowly growing again, there were no legal ways to buy online music that were worth a damn and we had cruddy, large, horrible to use hardware to choose from. Thank you, Apple!
Why I feel the iPod will survive the Microsoft Zune
Look at Microsoft’s software for interfacing with the Zune: Look Jeez, this company couldn’t even masturbate without having visited a Cupertino bathroom first. Apple continues to prove that while it innovates, Microsoft does CMD-A CMD-C CMD-P.
Another fantastic Olberman commentary
