  • waxpancake: Shortest SF trip ever! Coffee with @torrez, spoke at Venables Bell, mojitos with Flickr, and back to SFO. (Too short. I miss this city.)

  • waxpancake: @KG6BGJ People back projects in exchange for goods or services. It's patronage and commerce, not investment.

  • waxpancake: Well, that's about a billion times better: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kickstarter (thx @StevenWalling)

    11:07:31 pm on April 29, 2010 |

     

  • waxpancake: Any bets on when Kickstarter will get a proper Wikipedia entry? Right now it redirects to me, for some reason: http://bit.ly/cuoQZo

  • waxpancake: @gruber California law seems clear. Warrants can't be issued for material collected in the process of newsgathering. No "stolen" exception.

  • waxpancake: Machinarium for Mac, available free today only: http://bit.ly/b3FZsQ Brilliant wordless game about robots in love, highly recommended.

  • waxpancake: @wilsonminer I was behind the controls for the final level. The difficulty curve spikes through the roof.

  • waxpancake: @jzy Thanks! Forgot to link that yesterday.

  • waxpancake: Just finished playing through Psychonauts with Eliot. Best platformer ever made, though Dr. Loboto's brain sneezing powder freaked him out.

  • waxpancake: Aww, Eliot made me an electronic birthday card. My little circuit-bender! http://www.flickr.com/photos/waxpancake/4543968710/

  • waxpancake: To everyone asking, if you modify the Chrome URL selection at all, the "http://" isn't appended to the clipboard. http://bit.ly/b0egOg

    10:04:32 pm on April 21, 2010 |

     

  • waxpancake: @quidquid @coreyh The clipboard modification only happens if you select the entire URL, not part of it. (Removing qs params, for instance.)

    09:49:31 pm on April 21, 2010 |

     

  • waxpancake: Growing tired of typing "http://" back onto links. I'm hoping for a Chrome extension that reverts the behavior.

  • waxpancake: @fimoculous The higher the score, the more likely they are to give you money. Take a look at Justin Bieber's account.

  • waxpancake: When using a poster image on an HTML5 video with multiple encodings, the iPad hides the video controls entirely. Anyone know a fix?

  • waxpancake: Chrome dev purged "http://" from the address bar. So long, old friend. (Secure sites still show "https://" and copy/paste still works.)

    06:33:06 pm on April 14, 2010 |

     

  • waxpancake: @ChrisLepine_AG The updates in my article allude to it. I was asked by my source to remove my copy of the archive, which I did.
