I <3 Tiger, and I’ve only had it installed half an hour. It’s quick, it’s powerful… My poor Mac mini can’t display a lot of the beautiful Core Image effects, but hey. It’s still sweet!
We shall see if my PowerBook can handle CI this weekend. It’s slower and has less RAM, but in theory has [...]

I’m a geek. I’m in the Apple Store Bullring queue, waiting for the grand opening/Tiger launch, leeching from their network. Here’s a photo to prove it!

Got bored. Made banners/buttons/whatever. Also changed the php of the site to display links without the little » symbols - a non-trivial alteration, as they say Anyway, if anyone wants to use these new banners (either link to them or outright pinch them), I don’t mind. Would be nice if you let me know [...]

Well, I just read (I lie, I’m still reading it) one of the most fascinating articles I’ve ever come across. It’s a review of OS X 10.4 on arstechnica by John Siracusa. It’s very long, it’s very detailed; it’s also very interesting and even very funny. I highly recommend it.

Well, I made a link banner. Yay. If you want to link to my site (although heaven knows why), you can use this code:
<a href="http://www.phantomgorilla.com/" title="It sneaks up through the long grass, then suddenly - BAM!">
<img src="http://images.phantomgorilla.com/banners/phantom_88×31.gif">
</a>
This creates a banner which looks like the one below.

Well, I’m back from my trip away for work. They accidentally paid for a full breakfast for me, so I was up at 8 to take advantage of free bacon, eggs and mushrooms. I was going to go back to sleep… but then thought, what the hell. So 3 hours later, I’m home again.
Now for [...]

The words, “Can I ask you a personal question?” always give me a sense of foreboding.
Tonight was no exception. They were uttered by a waitress in the hotel restaurant - a cute, though slightly dumpy lass. She looked nervous, but not nervous enough for it to be anything that she was personally concerned in. I [...]

I’m a terrible n00b when it comes to IRC. I downloaded Colloquy, because Sam bullied me into trying to poke one of the messagestyles. (We had some success, but have a weird repeating-message bug with the latest nightly build). So, to test it I had to enter a channel. I joined #adium, of course.
Within 5 [...]

Spotlight 1.4 follows Shadowrunner 2 onto Adium X(tras). Smooth scrolling is fixed, thanks to Zaudragon getting the updated code.
