im quite suprised at the battery life. when mine arrived i charged it for an hour, well i say charge more like filling it. i took it off charge and played around with it, and its still going 2 days later (i use it at least 3 hours a day), the battery is 25% full... i still need to do a full charge but the battery life is amazing.
i was messing around on the baby before trying to kill the battery (playing Music Quiz amongst others) but it was having none of it... didnt even drop a pixel.
the 18(apple)-26(ipod lounge) hour battery life is completely feasable.

Hi,
I'm trying to get a grip with who is using my osx server. Not that I think it is abused but there are some things I cannot clarify.
My understanding is that connections should be counted by "service", and the serveradmin/overview only gives a cryptical information of "connected users" and a number (in my case 2).
Then I look in serveradmin/access I see my users as well as 2 mysterious users called something like "474311CA-E4E0-4C2A-9E9F-xxxx".
So I googled "connected users" and the best detailed listing of connected users was using "serveradmin command afp:command = getConnectedUsers" in terminal.
But this is still confusing. Is there a way to find out
1. who is connected to what service
2. what those mysterious users are doing in the server

I have a 2007 MacBook and I've noticed how much crap I have under the keybaord. One of the keys has also become a bit weird. It feels like it won't press down properly.
Is there anything I can buy to safely clean it?

Thanks for the quick reply, but think im even more confused. lol
Not very great with computers !
So i have to download something to rip it , then something else to encode it . Is it easy or a pain in the ass ??
Handbrake is a free download
So is VLC
With VLC installed you can run directly from Handbrake in one step to encode from a DVD
I just prefer to rip with another program first

I always liked the name Showtime. It was suggested when Apple announced movies on iTunes.
Nero already has an app called Nero Showtime so that's not gonna work

Actually, if you use the official music videos (if available) and choose the high quality option on the converter sites, the quality is perfect.Well the official videos come from the studios themselves so why are they complaining?

You need to put a colon before "Category", for example:

Exactly what I needed to know. Thanks.

A more conservative high end would be 933 MHz, but I think that a gig is quite possible. I can't really think of anything else. Bluetooth is a possibility, but I only think when digital device comes out that can utilize it. I don't mean an iPhone or iWalk neccesairly, but maybe a bluetooth adapter to the iPod just for contacts and calender that way you don't have to plug it in. Maybe with a push for the bluetooth phone that ericson or phillips did or a push for bluetooth enabled printers.

Excerpt: Weibo
Someone recommended that there should be a "Don't buy salt" campaign on the microblogosphere. I think that the salt buyers are those who don't use the Internet and lack accurate information. That is why traditional media such as television, radio and newspapers should be used to bring more accurate information to these people. [Comment: The people on this side of the information gap are obliged to communicate their knowledge to the people on the other side. They should do so by getting away from the computer and talk to others directly. The more people they speak to the better. The total number of conversions may be small, but this is doing a good deed.]
The government is being blamed for lack of public trust in this salt-buying mass panic. I think that the answer is the lack of commonsense. People say that commonsense requires the government to provide education. But the government is never omnipotent and omniscient. If we have to rely on the government to give you commonsense, then how could we complain that the government has too much power? How could we complain that the government is depriving our civil rights by saying that we are not good enough? The people who need commonsense education are those in government.
There is even a rush on salt in Sichuan. In Sichuan, the salt comes from the salt mines! Even if the ocean is contaminated, it won't affect Sichuan. My friend called to say that he ran out of salt and went to buy salt. He was stunned to see the empty shelf at the supermarket. He had to go and fetch a spoonful from his grandmother ... everybody is talking about salt ... it is rumored that Sichuan will be sending its salt to the eastern coastal region.
Do not be deceived by these crooked businessmen. Stop buying salt. Most of the salt comes from salt mines anyway, not from the Pacific Ocean. So they have nothing to do with any nuclear radiation. Besides, radioactive elements are quickly diluted by the sea water. Eating salt won't ward off radiation. But you can end up with edema if you eat too much salt and have hypertension. The crooked businessmen are jacking up the price, so why do you want to be a sucker? The salt-buying spree shows that people are ignorant. They have become the global butts of the jokes. A grand nation may have risen, but the wisdom of its people is lagging far behind.

Happiness is being able to buy salt
How to dispel the rumors? There is no salt to find anywhere from large supermarkets to small corner stores. Meanwhile the salt industry representatives say that there is a sufficient supply of salt in store. So why not move the stored salt into the stores? Isn't this the best way to dispel rumors. The more you talk without doing anything, the more suspicious people become. Just shut up!
At the supermarket, everybody was clamoring to buy salt except for one old lady who was shopping for other items while scoring at the other people. When asked why she didn't want to buy salt, she said: "I haven't even finished using the salt that I bought during the SARS period ..."
Caixin: We started a debate this morning: "There are salt buying sprees in many places in China. What is your view? What would you do?" At this time, 359 people said that this was stupid; 51 people said that they would go and buy salt; 19 people were neutral.
At Hong Kong supermarkets, people were buying rice and salt. This shows that Hong Kong people still lack commonsense. The salt supply is basically inexhaustible. The rice comes mostly from Thailand and is not affected by radiation.
At a time when people have such poor scientific knowledge, it seems premature to discuss freedom. It is a luxury. Rebuttal: What has scientific knowledge got to do with freedom?
The reason for the salt buying spree is due to the sense of insecurity and the distrust of the government. "I don't understand what your experts are saying and I am not willing to listen to them. I don't trust the authorities. I can only depend on myself."
Japan had a magnitude 9 earthquake and they held up. But we fell apart over salt! We can see how the Chinese are psychologically vulnerable and how they cannot distinguish rumors from facts! When the government hears the word "jasmine," they fall apart! When the people hear the word "salt," they fall apart! We don't need any earthquake, tsunami or volcano -- all it takes is a rumor for China to collapse!
The worst thing in the world -- I have been forwarding salt-related items on my microblog all day but when I got home, there was no salt.
With respect to all these compatriots who are said to be buying salt, I can only say: "Please line up and stay in order -- everybody will get their share." This reminds me of the panic buying of honeysuckle during the SARS period -- the price went from 10 yuan per kilogram to 600 yuan per kilogram in a matter of days. Many people who bought were sorry later on. Eight years have passed, but people have not gotten any better. [Comment: Can such 'people' build a democracy? I have my doubts. If they really build a democracy, it would be a tofu-residue construction project which will topple at the sign of a breeze.]
The most awesome and richest city in all of China right now is Yancheng (Jiangsu province) [Explanation: The literal translation is "Salt City."]
China was not stricken by any disaster, but there is a nationwide salt-buying panic spree. Meanwhile the Japanese are holding steady in the face of earthquakes, tsunamis and nuclear radiation leakages. What does this say? Which society is more stable? Apart from the troublesome Tokyo Electric Power Company, how is Japan worse than us? Apart from our fearless People's Liberation Army soldiers, what can be do better than Japan?
Frankly, the various microblog posts that make fun of the panicky salt-buying spree seems to indicate that everybody has superior wisdom. On the microblogsphere, have you seen anyone saying that they lined up to buy salt in order to ward off radiation? Frankly, I have not seen anyone yet. This is how microblogs are successful as media because the rumors have been filtered out.
In Foshan, the police came out and restricted citizens to 2 packs of salt per person. One citizen somehow came out smiling with ten packs in hand.
To summarize Chinese reactions to the Japan earthquake: hoard salt, create rumors, scare themselves.
My understanding is that the Chinese people are in a prisoner's dilemma situation. We are all living in black boxes and we assume the worst about other people. What is they are stupid? When everybody else is buying up salt, you would think: "Maybe I won't have any salt." So you buy salt not because you are stupid, but because you are worried that other people may be stupid. If I hadn't just purchased a pack of salt, I would have gone downstairs and gotten into line to buy a pack ...
Salt is all sold out in Shenzhen. Many people are rushing over to Hong Kong to buy salt. Very soon, the foreign media will be printing large numbers of reports about the salt-buying panic and we will lose face around the world.
They have panic salt-buying in Ningxia, Inner Mongolia and even Xinjiang. For the sake of harmony, I ask: Are they buying up salt in Lhasa yet?
