@zenimpulse I believe it was "Sammich".

YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW MAN, THERE'S SO MANY ROMS.
-
@zenimpulse @stevelyb I don't get heated.
-
@stevelyb Again, not defending him. What he did was wrong. Just stating one semi-positive outcome of ignorance turning to quasi-awareness.
-
@stevelyb and I'm talking just in general. not about any one issue in particular.
-
@stevelyb not defending him at all, that's just the way it is. people are now aware who weren't before.
-
@stevelyb my point is that people who didn't care at all before are now curious. that's important.
-
@stevelyb ehhh. I mean there ARE issues. Whether or not he meant to lie or not I think is irrelevant. It DID make people ask questions.
-
Gosh, I love Airfoil.
-
How many household things does one have to repair unassisted before being dubbed 'handy'? Because I'm at 1 and feeling preeettay good.
-
@marcoarment I'm in love with the sepia feature. By some chance, is there any way I could have that all the time?
-
@shawnblanc @BenjaminBrooks one of you dudes had your Skype chat blip sounds coming through your mic I think, just FYI.

@johnwinter love Dropzone! Any way to show a location's name in Circles? I have 3 folders that all look the same, and it'd help to see text.2 months ago from web | Reply, Retweet, Favorite

@bjmcgeever I was forced into it by your bad habits!
-
@bjmcgeever haha, I just noticed you were using Grab! And i figured I'd give you a hard time.
-
@troymess haha, same here!

@stevelyb Pizza!

Does *anyone* actually still think that Gizmodo is anything but a collector of link-bait articles? Tech journalism is so 2009, apparently.
-
@danbenjamin so when do we get a full tour of the 5by5 setup? i'd love to see it.
-
Oh, also, one more thing…#stangetz

This. You want to hear this. http://t.co/53OPkeqb #stangetz

-
@therealprotonk Fucking grandpas.
-
@zenimpulse what'd you go with?
-
You clean your records to unwind, too, right?
-
@zenimpulse ah ok. well personally, I'd go with the Sonys, but if the M50s don't need an adapter, you might want those.
-
@zenimpulse Can you test them at all? I'd just go with whichever suit your taste more.
-
@zenimpulse good phone, but I thought you were going for good-looking?
-
@zenimpulse Shure's are generally good. I haven't heard these ones, but the reviews seem good.
-
@zenimpulse haha, that's ok. also, I'm not sure how to tell on my end if they ship to canada or not.
-
@zenimpulse these are a tad flimsy, but sound good: http://t.co/mYNy5Qi1
-
@zenimpulse I've heard these, and they sound good for the price range, plus they fold up: http://t.co/2iC57s2G

@zenimpulse No question: http://t.co/Py1dLlpD
-
@zenimpulse budget?
-
2 classes, 1 web-app, and 1 unknown project to go until I graduate in December. Guess I better get to work on the ol' resume.
-
Go to 59:09 to hear @smarterbits' reward for holding his tongue.
-
@therealprotonk haha. And that's what I almost say every week.
-
@smarterbits and be rewarded for it!
-
Episode 9 of @theimpromptu is out now! http://t.co/6AWkVYCe
-
@stevelyb @zenimpulse boom.
-
The simple fact of the matter is that Karen Carpenter's voice was complete gold.
-
@therealprotonk true. just some people taking it too far.
-
Several writers in my rss feed are giving credence to the idea that many apple fans are elitist jerks.
-
If you're an apple writer, there's a 90% chance I'm sick of reading your mind-numbing BS. Stop writing about why other companies suck.
-
I made a new blog post thing: http://t.co/ypDaevoW
-
@stevelyb @cmartucci @zenimpulse @therealprotonk @smarterbits nope, just saw all of them now, hahaha. I edited that of my own accord.
-
Writing a post in Markdown for the first time. Actually liking it a lot. Thanx @gruber. Can I call you Grubes? Well, I was going to anyway.
-
I think I have a blog just so I can redesign it more often than I post on it.
-

Since @stevelyb did a redesign and i'm a copycat, I did one too. http://t.co/ypDaevoW
-
@futurepaul are they somewhere in that huge thread? maybe you left them there?
-
@smarterbits I'm into it. Looks real good the iPhone.
-
@zenimpulse @stevelyb it downloads as well, but streaming works quite well on 3G most of the time.
-
@zenimpulse @stevelyb Yes it does. I've been streaming since I got it.
-
Ha. I hope this was intentional. http://t.co/B1hRTtVy
-
@shawnblanc me too. What's the new way? Duplicate and then Save... ?
-
@stevelyb @cmartucci bingo.
-
@cmartucci Right now i'm on 3500K. Occasionally if I have a headache i'll take down further to 3000K. How about you?
-
@cmartucci good to see someone else using Flux. Love that thing. Coding late at night kills my eyes without it.
-
@cmartucci Exactly the reason I moved my own gf's blog to WP. Everything about it is awful.
-

-
Good luck, Curiosity. Plz send HD picz of cool rocks and dirt.
-
so…much…code…can't…see…whats…happening…
-
@cmartucci @stevelyb oh ok. yeah i feel ya. I spent a good month Libby's.
-
@cmartucci @stevelyb if i may interject, it's incredibly easy to import posts and comments from Blogger to Wordpress.
-
Also, big disappointment: no Rizzo the Rat. Dang. #muppets
-
Muppets was quality, but Amy Adams's performance was pretty weak. Main theme is awesome. Great classic comedy.
-
I want chocolate chip cookies, yet they are still in production in the kitchen. It is for this reason the good lord invented cookie dough.
-
Stopped at Walmart to see the sights. Hundreds of people, parking lot completely full. People are insane.
-
If aliens came to earth and asked me what they should eat first, I would definitely say "mashed potatoes".
-
@reckless they're all terrible. "crazy lady on speed crying about black friday" is the new "creepy Palm lady".
-
New Chrysler commercial has great typography.
-
@stevelyb Agreed. Most of my friends are in different cities or across the country. Of course local places wouldnt be so popular. Good post.
-
@zenimpulse I was mostly kidding, anyway. ha.
-
@zenimpulse I want an app that does the opposite of stamp something so the world can know I don't approve.
-
How do I Non-Stamp Instacast HD?
-
@zenimpulse I can't imagine a time when I would listen to podcasts on my iPad anyway, but paying twice sucks. Poor at best.
-
Sorry, not forking over money for the iPad version of an app I already paid for. I'm looking at you, Instacast. Pretty weak.
-
Stamped: Time In. “Best album cover ever. Great jazz record from some authentic dudes.” http://t.co/TZRaVwn6
-
If you like classical-style piano even just a little, you gotta listen to this record on @Rdio. http://t.co/6Ryr90bL
-
It kind of throws me off guard when something I code works on the first try.
-
@codyfink I don't understand why it doesn't give a link to whatever someone stamped. Sort of defeats the purpose.
-
@Seeds0215 aw yeah. bring that thing in tomorrow.
-
@stevelyb @zenimpulse well, not too many yet, just technical recording and editing notes for me so far.
-
@stevelyb @zenimpulse the podcast, i mean.
-
@stevelyb @zenimpulse got a NV note dedicated to it already.
-
@stevelyb haha, i can completely understand. we need a "people offend me" podcast.
-
@stevelyb people's ignorance regularly stuns me.
-
I'm your only friend, I'm not your only friend but I'm a little glowing friend but really I'm not actually your friend, but I am. #tmbg
-
@stevelyb man, you should hear the kids on campus here whine and complain about bandwidth. it's kind of pathetic.
-
@stevelyb dude, that's sweet.
-
@codyfink just any talk like that in general annoys me. people can have their opinions, but I don't want to subject to it at their will.
-
@codyfink Part of me likes knowing who is posting this crap though, so I remember to not like them in real life.
-
I like cleaning things up. So you can imagine my pleasure in de-friending/de-following people who rant about politics. One more down.
-
@stevelyb I really want to jump ship already. I wish they'd tell us how far the final release is out.
-
@stevelyb I just don't understand whats taking so long. If wunderlist had perfect sync their first release, why doesn't Things after years?
-
@stevelyb ...after the beta. I don't have the iOS beta, just the Mac beta. So it's absolutely worthless to me still. Grr.
-
@stevelyb the whole thing sucks. For Mac, you have to download a separate "beta" Things.app that you won't be able to access data from...
-
Textastic for iPad looks awesome. Figuring out ways to not buy it. Can't think of many. Must. Save. Money.
-
@MelissaLupole easy! just root against your most hated teams! Almost as much fun.
-
@stevelyb yes, and conveniently, all the content too!
-

-
@troymess sure man! I'll send a mix today when I get a chance.
-
@chrisbowler Do you mean the actual PHP developers or just dudes like me and you? I just use it to denote an array i.e. $_array
-
On a related note, Harold and Maude was awesome.
-
Heard Cat Stevens Father and Son for the first time. Immediately knew the Flaming Lips ripped him off- even before I saw the lawsuit. Yikes
-
@stevelyb they said at the cast reunion at the new Yorker festival said it would be filming this summer.
-
@stevelyb Its painful. I've only been a Things user for a few months, yet it's been too long without cloud sync. Can't imagine waiting years
-
@jasemorrissey @zenimpulse looks awesome, but the name is…well…not good.
-
@hotdogsladies good morning! how are you?
-
Just recorded my first song in about 2.5 years. Weird.
-
@hotdogsladies MmmmBOLK bag.
-
Math is hard.
-
@faitherina As a straight male, I can still support this.
-
Watch that extra $row, kids, it'll getcha.
-
@codyfink I was thinking about going barebones and doing just html and body tags too. Looks like they beat me to it. Dang
-
I guess I should have figured that mentioning appletv, iOS and Mac in the same tweet would trigger the spambots.
-
@ttscoff sounds like a good star trek episode. Only one person to blame. Q.
-
Navigating a large iCloud library on an Apple TV with the remote is the worst. Might as well just AirPlay from iOS or Mac.
-
@wilw behold, the magic of photoshop: http://t.co/U0pT2ayu

Is there a PHP module for inserting semicolons where I've been missing them for the last 3 hours? Also, one that can read my thoughts?
-
Semicolons are the cause of most of my stress in the last month or two.
-
So, I guess we can add Microsoft Socl to the list of social networks I won't be on.
-

-
@stevelyb @smarterbits man, I wish. I don't do any cocoa/obj-c stuff. Mostly PHP/JS/HTML/CSS.
-
@viticci somebody missed the little red dotted line.
-
@zenimpulse well if anyone could make them do it...
-
@zenimpulse Yeah, I can understand for sure. We know they'll change stuff if enough people complain so perhaps others will feel the same way
-
@zenimpulse If I was on 3G for example, I'd like to only see what's on the phone so I can't stream anything and use data.
-
@zenimpulse Sometimes I just want to get rid of clutter. A switch at the top of Music.app to toggle it rather than jumping to settings.app.
-
@zenimpulse but what I matched w/iTM doesn't show up under Purchased, that's only what I actually bought through the iTunes store.
-
@zenimpulse w/iTM, it shows up like this, and to see only whats on the phone, you have to go to settings. http://t.co/u4f1RV9J
-
I should clarify, I meant "switch quickly between on the phone/on iCloud". cc/ @zenimpulse
-
There has to be a better way to view only music on the phone than going into settings. #itunesmatch
-
Awesome singer/songwriter @mybandowen does one his best in a wig shop. Good stuff. http://t.co/xEvzPXVx

@cmartucci that's crazy! I'd be all "gimme admin access, yo!"
-
I wonder if I'm the only one on campus that tweaks the desktop picture, finder prefs, and dock items on every lab Mac I use.
-
@codyfink Yeah. It says you get three months for free when the beta ends. And they'll delete everything once it's done.
-
@viticci It's a beta still: http://t.co/ntoNUtWm

Hey @CBS. Here's the thing. There are too many TV timeouts. Too many commercials. It makes football less fun to watch. End of story.
-
Just saw the most desperate "please use the post office" commercial ever. Hilarious.
-
@troymess holy crap dude. that album you did is amazing.
-
@shawnblanc I see what you did there.
-
@smarterbits "We Are the Tide" get it!
-
@smarterbits absolutely. Have you heard their new one?
-
@smarterbits Anything by these bands: Dawes, Blind Pilot, Phoenix, Fleet Foxes, Bon Iver, Maritime, The Tallest Man On Earth.
-
@smarterbits what kind of music?
-
@zenimpulse get a mophie?

Also, so cool that I can't type.

I'm so cool that using friday night to learn javascript. Yep, that cool.

@danbenjamin it's ok man, next year the 5.0 comes out with beta versions of both of those!

-
Good Track: ♫ Listening to "Blue Skies" by Noah and the Whale on @Rdio: http://t.co/vcGPw6Zm
-
@zenimpulse Ha, well yours are real issues, so I feel for you. Notice I said "2 full days."
-
iOS update did nothing for my battery issues. Still getting only 2 full days out of one charge.
-
@BenjaminBrooks Agreed. Did it last night and was kind of blown away by the whole thing. Tap Time Capsule, tap update, done.
-
Holy crap. Wilson Ramos was kidnapped??
-
@cmartucci Still totally awesome though, obviously.
-
@cmartucci Strange to me that this is making the rounds now. I saw this very picture (I think) when I was a kid.

Going to stats class intentionally late so I don't get accosted by the professor because i didn't do the homework. Smart? Oh yes.

Oh snap. Prof just called her out on it. I feel vindicated.

Seriously people, I'm not being dramatic, STOP putting every word you say on your slides. Worst. Thing. Ever.

Just @'d @arnettwill with an arrested development quote, only to look through his stream to see 2 billion others. #wittyfail

@arnettwill sure, the guy in the $5,000 dollar suit is telling me what to watch on television.
-
@danbenjamin worse than inside sunglasses!
-
@BenjaminBrooks little red bar, black/grey header thing, then nothing but white. guess it's just not my favorite.
-
@BenjaminBrooks truly, i'm not just hating on the change. this is my big qualm: http://t.co/Y0zE3beK
-
@stevelyb @cmartucci @BenjaminBrooks also, that header overall just isn't consistent with the rest of the site. gets too much visual weight.
-
@stevelyb @cmartucci @BenjaminBrooks Everything up until Recent Posts is kind of unbalanced. Not into the gray bar for most recent article.
-
@zenimpulse but seriously that's awesome too, haha.
-
@codyfink @zenimpulse oh shit, there was something besides a space in that last tweet? just showed up as empty on twitterrific!
-
@zenimpulse man, that's deep.
-
Wow, Mac App Store, how you've changed: http://t.co/iZnxAaE4
-
@ttscoff gotcha. that being said, what's your primary reason for sticking with droplr? any advantages?
-
@ttscoff I use CloudApp like crazy. Do you use both together? What does Droplr do that CloudApp doesn't?
-
@zenimpulse sounds like the best we can do without Flash, I guess...
-
@zenimpulse "STUNNING HTML 5 video, awesome CSS3 support. Only on the nation's largest wireless network."
-
Adobe killed mobile Flash for Android? But what will phone makers put on the stat sheets now??

All the clocks on campus sync to a time server. The time server is down/was down over the weekend. All the clocks on campus are wrong. Yay.
-
Obj-C's syntax and frameworks and stuff are daunting for a beginner.
-
@cmartucci If you're just starting out, I'd recommend something a little bit simpler to nail down the concepts. JS/PHP would be good ones.
-
@cmartucci …and by "it" I mean the language, not the book.

@MelissaLupole Well it's definitely mechanical failure. I don't know that i've ever seen a drive die from a virus, but who knows.

@MelissaLupole Yeah I know, sucks.

And of course, in the last week, I've diagnosed 6 HDD failures on student computers on campus. Sorry, kids.

Hard drive prices are insane right now. $85 for a 250GB hard drive. that's a 100% jump in price in just over a week.

Girl behind counter at the cafe asked if I wanted to try something different for lunch today. My response? "Why would I want to do that?"
-
@zenimpulse eh, different teams probably. I would assume the Do A Barrel Roll division worked on that one.
-
@codyfink See, the rest of their stuff is definitely "chicky". However, I think the fact that it's Hall & Oats scales it back a bit.
-
@codyfink dude, it's really good. that girl's voice is like, so dreamy.

@smarterbits yes. although the product comparisons and "story stream" features are pretty cool too.

@smarterbits I was at first, but the design is mostly what i'm talking about. some very talented people obviously involved there.

@torybriggs dang! sorry i couldn't help more. good luck!
-
@torybriggs have you tried a reboot/repair permissions/reindex?
-
@torybriggs the 'd' at the end means it's the daemon that controls the indexer. check this article: http://t.co/SMdgGtIY
-
@torybriggs could also be spotlight- i think it's usually associated with indexing. I had a runaway mds related to time machine though.
-
@torybriggs I believe that is Time Machine.
-
@zenimpulse I use Reeder on my machine, but there are two machines at school I use, and on those, I use(d) HelvetiReader. Heartbreaking.

@cmartucci It's a shame. Your pageviews must be taking a huge hit.

-
@codyfink exactly what i wanted to know. thanks man!
-
@codyfink So i can use the app to send audio to the headphones? Or the multitasking tray controls to do so?
-
@therealprotonk that's true, but I still forget every time!
-
Does anyone know how Bluetooth headphones connect to an iOS device? Can AirPlay be used with them?
-
Never ceases to bug me how apple put the volume controls and mute switch on the iPad on the opposite side as on the iPhone.

@stevelyb the strange thing is, I typed mint dot com (with the dot) in Tweetbot, and that's what got posted.
-
@verge TextEdit!

By which I mean Mint dot Com app updated with iPad version!

@therealprotonk Yikes! Don't know how that happened!

@stevelyb doesn't work in Canada, amirite? Eh?

@stevelyb YES.

My iPhone lost 10% of its battery overnight. That's 10% gone while the phone was on standby for 7.5 hours. Time to investigate, methinks.

@stevelyb Yeah, that's a big reason why I love Things. It's really great-looking. That cloud sync thing is taking an eternity though.

@stevelyb got applecare?

@stevelyb slowdowns and lockups on a fresh build would definitely lend itself to a hard drive problem. I'd take it to an Apple store.
-
@stevelyb If so, it sounds like a hard drive issue.
-
@stevelyb did you do a format and install? like, truly fresh install?

@marcoarment because, man, like, you know, 5 bucks is like, way too much money man.
