住宿舍的時候，很少看電視，要看任何電影或是影集都是在電腦上看。
兩三年前要在電腦上面看影集的時候，如果不想從iTunes花錢買的話，你大概都得去BT下載影集，BT的影集好處是，他們都把廣告剪掉，然後畫質還不錯，但是呢，缺點是，在最新的影集在電視上播完以後，你得等上好幾天才有得看。
現在幾乎都不用了。

很多電子書格式是.chm，可是這樣要印的時候很麻煩。之前找了很久要把.chm轉換成pdf的格式，有不少是在windows上面的程式。今天從MetaFilter的討論串裡面發現，有個叫Chimp的軟體。似乎能夠達到想要的功能 — 把 chm 的頁面全部匯成一個 pdf(你可以在這個俄國mirror站下載）。
唯一的缺點是，這是一個shareware，但是這個軟體的首頁好像不見了，也找不到作者的網站，所以我不太確定你付了錢會不會拿到序號。不過，我想跟大家分享，某名稱是K開頭w結尾的大補帖裡面有這個程式的patch，朋友說某序號盒子裡面也可以找到。
另外，轉換出來的pdf，配著Yep!的全螢幕看，實在很舒服。

小護士軟膏，有人叫它「曼秀雷敦」或是「mentholatum」(請用日文還是台語發音)，但是我都叫它「面速力達姆」。
一開始用網路上找到的照片來直接瞄，但是效果都很差，不是顏色不對就是，角度距離沒弄準。後來從這個香港的網頁找到乾淨的黑白圖檔來加工。在flickr裡也意外發現，原來除了已經看過罐身是綠色的，還有彩色版這種東西。

i usually *hate* people who let the paper jam sit there and don’t fix it. and today i got paper jammed with this printer i was not familiar with. i was almost going to be that idiot who just let paper jam sat there. ….. luckily the paper jam code of conduct emerges to my head.
- don’t panic when you cause the paper jam
- don’t open up the machine right away no matter how simple or complicated it looks like
- go to lookup the model number and search for the printer manual
- read off the error message and look up in the manual
- if that all of the above don’t work, just wait for your colleagues or IT support (i know, but you don’t want to make things worse and they will hate you forever)
- if you try to do duplex print to save your company’s paper, that’s great. but if you keep getting paper jam because of that. forget it. you’d rather stay with one sided print. or try to print two pages in one. give up double sided. I am warning you.
this works for copy machine too. they should put this near all of the public printers in the office.
oh yes, i did clear up up that paper jam.
update: the problem is fixed within a few hours after i send an email to customer service. but they didn’t reply to me what is the cause of the problem. lt is faster than i expected. not bad

很早以前就已經把flickr和yahoo id結合起來了吧，一直以來也跟flickr相安無事。結果今天要login的時候，flickr居然跟我給了我個那個binding page again, 問我要不要新的flickr帳號或著是輸入舊flickr id。不太確定舊的密碼，request以後，它跟我說「你的帳號已經跟yahoo id結合了呀」…..-_- 很想罵人
搞甚麼東西，馬上來寫信去客服問 WTF
騙子flickr，騙子yahoo
“Skulls are really about mindfulness. mindfulness is about being where you are. not where you’ve been. and not where you’re going. and recognizing all thing will pass meaning that joy will pass, sadness will pass, and your life will pass. and embracing that mortality and being in that mindful place. just enjoy that experience, don’t think about too much about the future or worry the mistakes from the past, knowing every experiences, good and bad, painful and joyful is adding up to you and being in your life, and that’s good.”
Teri Hatcher – Inside the Actor’s Studio
