I wrote this like a year ago. I’m posting it now.


Almost a year ago I bought a shiny new MacBook. 13.3 in and tricked out to the maxx. That’s right 2 x’s. This is the closest thing I’ll ever do to a published review of OS X.

loof: Pretty seriously, I’ve had about as many problems with my Mac as Windows.

Adam: you’ve got the first aluminum one
I wonder if that’s what it is
is it mostly hardware?

loof: Dunno

Adam: or what were your other ones

loof: iTunes, random beachballing , the sleep crash

Adam: what happened with itunes?

loof: it stops playing and locks up

Adam: the sleep crash I can’t recreate–you should take it in, seriously
(with that power adapter)

loof: I’m thinking about it

Adam: really?!
you didn’t buy all that apple care for nothing

loof: yeah, it’s happened a few times
other random annoying crashes too.
and finder is slow as shit
click a folder…wait wait wait….ok here are your files!
Don’t get me wrong, I’m super happy with it. The UI is nice and there is a lot of polish in the OS (well maybe not Snow Leopard so much) but I don’t feel like it’s fundamentally better than Windows.

Adam: over christmas, use mine and see if you’ve got all the same problems
I haven’t had any of those
well, for me, but for you

loof: A lot of it started after SL really
Maybe I should follow your lead and not update. Perhaps that’s the Mac way?
It just works! (So don’t fuck with it okay?)

I usually don’t get involved with this type of thing but I thought this one was neat.

1.  Go to Wikipedia. Hit “random” or click here
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2. Go to Quotations Page and select “random quotations” : here
The last four or five words of the very last quote on the page is the title of your first album.

3. Go to Flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”: here
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4. Use Photoshop or something similar to put it all together. (I recommend Paint.Net)

Theme Awesomeness

The good news is that the latest WordPress update decided to hose my entire theme. I suppose that’s what I get for not changing the directory from default. I’ve got a backup somewhere but I’m too lazy to find it right now.

I suppose it is about time for an update anyway.

*Update*

The theme is mostly fixed now. My wordpress backup plugin doesn’t includes themes for some reason so I had to grab an older backup and lost a few changes in the process.
