does anybody know how to map these keys to open an application without installing ikeys or any other 3rd party software? preliminary research suggests it may be possible by editting a pref panel file directly but I have yet to find an answer. ?

According to the Associated Press, Jay-Z has teamed up with the New York Yankees to create co-branded clothing. The apparel, which will include shirts and caps and will be sold exclusively at Yankee Stadium starting next week, will feature logos from both the Yanks and Jay.

I guess somebody was listening when he said “I made the Yankee hat more famous than a Yankee can.”

Yes. Please.

hmm when is the next I will be in NY…

So my magic mouse has now gone through two sets of batteries since may(when I got it). It has got me thinking… I really want a new way to interact with my computer. Where is my minority report style interaction?

Worst part about being a Geek

Wed, 25 Aug 2010 22:14:50 -0400

I always wish I had stuff that doesn’t exist. I want that cool new piece of hardware /software that isn’t available. I can’t count the hours I have spent trolling the internet looking for the coolest gadgets available. Nothing I find ever seems to satisfy my craving for gadgets. I try to use every gadget I get to it’s maximum potential including repurposing it for things it may not have been intended for. As new technology is released I am impressed by it’s seemingly endless capabilities at first but then inevitably after some time I find it to be limiting or not living up to the hype. I think this is one of the reasons I am so engrossed in the idea of Artificial Intelligence. There seems to be a holy grail within the idea of creating something that can independently interact with me.

staff:

Today, Tumblr passed one BILLION posts!

I never imagined we would make it this far so quickly, and apparently neither did Jacob when he designed the About page.

The things you do with Tumblr continue to blow our minds. :)

Thanks for the shout out, TC!

WHO HAD THE BILLIONTH POST?!?!
