So, these days I'm using (as a user) XP, OSX, Android, iOS, Windows 7, and Ubuntu. I've just successfully done an NFS mount in Ubuntu (which required finding and downloading some packages), so I'm well on my way to being a Linux fanboi.
More resistance to iOS subscription model. Their solution illustrates a path for some developers: fuck doing an app, just use http.
some funny animation parodies on
the simpsons last night.
Using handbrake (open source media encoder app which uses open source x264 encoder) to encode some HD. Turned the knobs up to 11 on the "advanced" settings page for max quality. It's been cranking on a two minute clip for 15 minutes, and it's about halfway through. My Core2 Duo laptop is going to burst into flames any moment now.

Starting today, there are more than 150 of our most important films online on the
Hulu Plus* subscription service. Over the coming months, that number will swell to more than 800 films. For the true cinephile, this should be a dream come true. On Hulu Plus, you’ll find everything in our library, from Academy Award winners to many of the most famous films by art-house superstars like Ingmar Bergman, Akira Kurosawa, and Federico Fellini to films so rare that they have never been seen in the U.S. in any medium. Some of these lost gems have been so hard to see that even most of the Criterion staff will see them for the first time only when they go live on Hulu Plus! Each month, we’ll be highlighting a mix of programs, centered on themes, directors, actors, and other creative artists, as well as celebrity picks, and mixing them with deep cuts from the catalog that will be unknown to all but the most prominent cinephiles in the world.
