Now pointlessly enhanced with AI
I have been having a hard time posting to my WordPress account using Chrome Browser. I’m using Chrome Dev Version 10.0.612.3 and it keeps crashing WordPress Page. It has been consistent.
I’ll take a look at the log and figure out what’s really going on.
I am considering buying Canon EOS 60D instead of Canon EOS 7D. There are a few things about EOS 60D that I like over EOS 7D.
To be honest, the tilt-swivel LCD is great for shooting videos with EOS 60D.
I need more informations before I buy a new DSLR Camera Body. Then again, Canon might announce new DSLR camera at Winter CES 2011. Well, I’ll wait for another week.
Happy New Year!
2011 is the new 2010.
By the way it is pretty cold in Southern California. It is only 35 degree Fahrenheit.
UPDATE:
FiOS service is back to normal around 1:00 AM.
I’m having such a hard time accessing the Series of Tubes tonight. I have been enjoying Verizon FiOS service for a few years now. I was working on a MacBook Pro and was going to download Mac OS X 10.6.5 Combo Update. I then noticed that the download speed was so horrible so I checked if the problem was with Apple’s server or my Internet service. After numbers of tests, it was apparent that the FiOS service was having issues. I tested the Internet speed using SpeedTest.net and found out the download speed was significantly lower than usual. It was down to 1.5 Mb/s in a few tests. At one point the result from SpeedTest.net was really amusing.
6.66 Mb/s
I must be easily amused.
Words from the Skype people about new version of Skype for iPhone now supports video calls.
From Skype Blogs:

The new app is compatible with the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, and iPod touch 4th generation with i0S 4.0 or above. You can also receive video calls on the iPod touch 3rd generation and iPad.
iPhone 4 owners can now use the front-facing camera with app other than FaceTime.
P.S. Skype is inviting everyone to Skype’s New Year’s Eve video celebration.

Well, one MacBook Pro MagSafe Power Adapter of mine bites the dust. I was in the middle of using the 15-inch MacBook Pro Core Duo which I bought back in 2006 when I noticed the screen was automatically dimmed. There was no change in the ambient lighting. I noticed the MagSafe connector was no longer lit-up then I heard a loud popping noise coming from the power adapter. I immediately unplugged and inspected the power adapter. I could smell a burning electric component coming from the power adapter. I guess I’d have to head out and get a replacement in the morning. It would be $80 plus sales tax at the Apple Store. I could also buy the 85-Watt MagSafe Power Adapter from Amazon and have it delivered on Friday. Either way, I’d have to spend the money. I do have one that I always leave at home.
Family Guy: It’s A Trap! is now officially released despite of some early leaks somewhere on the inter-tubes. Prior to the release of the DVD, a person who definitely did not attend the meeting between Seth McFarlane and John Jacobs informed us about a little joke within the movie. Similar to Futurama: Bender’s Big Score with mentions of ILoveBender.com, Family Guy: It’s A Trap! mentions hanjobs.org as part of a joke. Twentieth Century Fox registered the domain name hanjobs.org in advance of the release of the DVD.
Upon watching the actual movie, I found three other domain names within the jokes. They are:
Twentieth Century Fox for sure secured the domain names before the release of the DVD, didn’t they?
Unfortunately Twentieth Century fox missed one domain name, getrichquicker.org record was created back in November 18th, 2009 by somebody else.
Ah well, I’m going to watch the special features from Futurama Volume 5 DVD.
