David Ellefson Returns To Megadeth Line-Up. February 8, 2010

Posted by 37prime in : Announcement, Entertainment, Media, Music, News, Resources , add a comment

It’s a surprise and somewhat predictable. David Ellefson rejoins Dave Mustaine and Megadeth per the announcement on Monday February 8th, 2010. Megadeth is set to embark on “Rust In Peace 20th Anniversary Tour” starting March 2010 and at this point in time are busy rehearsing every single song from the seminal record.

The return of Ellefson into Megadeth ranks means a departure for James LoMenzo who recorded “United Abominations” and “Endgame” in 2007 and 2009 respectively. So far there has been no explanation what really happened within Megadeth with regards to LoMenzo.

iPhone OS 3.1.3 still doesn’t know the proper spelling of iPad. February 7, 2010

Many thought that iPhone OS 3.1.3 includes the correct spelling for iPad. Even Leo Laporte thought so.

Nope!

It suggests “uPas” whenever you’re trying to type “iPad” on the iPhone and iPod touch.

Adobe Responds to Flash Crash Bug. February 6, 2010

As we have previously discovered, Flash 10.1 beta is not affected by the crash-inducing bug. Matthew Dempsky has been pressing this issue for quite a while. The news hits front page of Hacker News earlier this week and garnered more attentions.

Adobe has now officially responded to this bug. The fix will beincluded in Flash 10.1 that will be released sometimes in 2010. Considering the nature of this bug, Adobe should have included the fix sooner in the 10.0.x release.

I have been using ClickToFlash for a while to weed out those pesky Flash-based ads. In addition to that I have not been missing Flash on the iPhone and iPod touch at all. In a way I’m glad that the iPad won’t be supporting Flash plugin.

Seriously, I don’t really depend on Flash when surfing the web.

Note to Darren Carter, you need to dump the stupid Flash-based site of yours. Get a real webmaster!

Found via Hacker News.

If you have even an up-to-date Flash plugin installed, it most likely will crash your browsers. It seems that this bug has been fixed in Flash 10.1 beta.

I have ClickToFlash installed, so I could actually read what this page says without having Safari crashed.

No wonder Steve Jobs won’t allow Flash on the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.

Apple releases iPhone OS 3.1.3 (7E18) to address a few issues including the accuracy of battery level in iPhone 3GS, third party apps compatibilities and crashes related to Japanese keyboard.

No, this is not the iPhone OS 3.2 as in the iPad, let alone the rumored iPhone OS 4.0 that will be an A+ upgrade just like what Steve Jobs allegedly said.

iPhone OS 3.1.3

As usual, if you had jailbroken your iPhone, please refrain yourself from updating to iPhone OS 3.1.3 until it’s safe to do so.

It is not my Unibody MacBook Pro but I can feel the pain as if it was mine. Other than the chip and the dent, The MacBook Pro is fine.
