Developing on a jailbroken iPhone 3G.
Or, how developing on a jailbroken iPhone 3G isn't possible. Because of the patching nessicary to get unsigned code working for the jailbreak, XCode is unwilling to install applications on the device. That sucks.
Interesting times in Dawson Creek.
Well, Dawson Creek has been an experience. A panic attack, fainting, shrooms and a wedding round out the week.
Fucking Racoons
Racoons are cute, fuzzy, have great ancestry, are equipped with neat human-like hands, steal doormats, and like climbing up trees, but have difficulty climbing down.
Aaw, cancer sticks.
I haven't posted in a very long time. You can pick one of the following possible reasons: a. I have nothing interesting to write, b. I have nothing new happening in my life, c. I have died (not likely unless you believe in spirits sending e-mail), or d. I have nothing new happening in my life. Hint: there's not much going on 'round here.
Photography Courses
With the exception of medium- and large-format photography, analog processes appear to be dead. Nikon and Canon have stopped producing new models of 35mm film cameras—Nikon in early 2006 and Canon in 2004—and these companies have also stopped production on a number of film-related technologies, like enlarging lenses. Nikon has even stated in a press release that they have stopped manufacturing new film technologies, and will cease sale when stock runs out. If this is the case, why do college and university courses continue to teach analog film development and other film-related courses?
29GB of Flash
I have 29GB of flash memory laying around. Holy crap.
Photojournalist?
It seems I've turned into a bit of a photojournalist. I went to a presentation about Deep Integration, otherwise known as the North American Union, or the Security and Prosperity Partnership, hosted by the NDP and Council of Canadians, to fully describe the problem and attempt to explore what we can do about it.
Comment of the Day
Today's comment is possibly fraudulent, but I must admit it had me giggling for quite some time.
A Quick Comparison
When I first purchased my PS3 I compared the costs of the box and the XBox 360. After upgrades to bring the machines to parity (equal features) they cost the same. It's been quite some time since then and I decided to do another comparison of prices. All prices listed in USD.
Comment of the Day
I think I'll start posting a Comment of the Day feature-ette. It will showcase the best comment I've run across during my daily blogging and digging. Today's features an update to the Great Format War.

花鳥風月

We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;

For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man person perish, yet the inward man person is renewed day by day.

For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;

While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

— 2 Corinthians 4
