  • 1. iPhone 3.0 spotlight searching
    I don't usually get x.0 versions of OSes but I thought what the hell. After the upgrade I checked out a few things I'd been wondering about, one of them being spotlight. I typed in a topic and it pulled up emails (among other things)... but these were emails that I had tossed off the iPhone already. I was wondering how they pulled this trick, I didn't particularly like the idea, when I toss something I want it gone. I disconnected the cable to the Mac. A few minutes later I tried another search... I then tried the same search I'd done previously and it came up with much less data... the spotlight search from the iPhone encompassed searching my Mac as well. I thought this was a nice touch by Apple.
  • 2. New Apple Macbooks Still Have 8x DVD Writer
    What is wrong with Apple? They are putting out new Macbooks and didn't even take the time to upgrade the DVD burner. It's still the 8x "Superdrive". No Blu-Ray and no faster speed for burning DVDs. What the hell is so "super" about a three-year-old DVD burner? That's just pathetic. John

Taking Socialogy 4570 at FAU. It's called Technology and Socialogy. We are
going to study what would cause people to post over 8,400 posts of nothing
but personal attacks in the span of one month!  People in my class including
the professor though I was lying about the sheer amount of posts, the
stubborness, the futility, and the abounding ridiculousness of it. Until, I
pulled up OE and showed them comp.sys.mac.advocacy.  Funny thing was at
first when they heard they it was a Mac group the class was like, "nevermind
you are talking about Mac users." But alas the professor, and older gent,
thought it would make a perfect case study.

Congrats you lab rats. I knew something good would come out of this group. A
case study on the instability of Mac users!!! At least that's how I hope to
spin it into an "A".

Though those are some angry posts the sheer quantity needed is not there.
Even I can get pissed and some say shit in anger. You did an exhaustive
search on me and found what three posts to try and prove a point. Now do a
search on you, snit, mackay, and carroll.  You should get similar results to
mine. Over 8,400 posts by three people in ONE MONTH. 8,400 posts with NO
substance. Now that's something to study. Just the amount of time involved
to make that many posts would qualify someone as borderline pychotic.

No, you're not. 

* Socialogy is spelled '"sociology", even at Florida Atlantic 
University. ( http://www.**--****.com/ ) 
* A senior-level college student should be able to spell "sociology". 
(How many years have you been a senior in college?) 
* From your behavior here you have not demonstrated the "Interests and 
Aptitudes/Qualities ... associated with or needed for success" in the 
subject. ( http://www.**--****.com/ ) 


No, he didn't. What you claim you did is unethical and would not pass 
any board of review. Except perhaps at FAU, where the entire Sociology 
Department seems to be under construction. 
 http://www.**--****.com/ 



If you're going to claim to be a college senior, you should at least be 
able to write like one. That sentence requires a comma after the{*filter*}
word, you illiterate. 



Thank you for your endor{*filter*}t of Florida Atlantic University. If I ever 
run across a resume from someone at this school, I will think twice and 
file it away.

It was by no means an "exhaustive" search. Two were picked at random and 
third was a post that some of us like to point out to you from time to 
time.

You miss the point of the study. It doesn't baffle your mind that SNIT, and
CAROLL can go back and forth spending 12-13 hours DAILY posting back and
forth but accomplishing nothing? 8400 posts in ONE MONTH!!!!  Imagine what
the effort could do if that monumental amount of energy went into something
constructive. I'm just fascinated because I don't understand what could
drive a guy to that.

Your "study" is flawed.


What sort of search parameters were you using?

I just did

author:snit OR author:carroll group:comp.sys.mac.advocacy

over the last month and had "only" 1300 posts. I know not all the posts
were directed solely at each other. How did you come up with 8400?


You're mistaken. You better rethink your project.


At least you've learned how to stop top-posting! Why's that?

Here's some more data on your "muahman" handle:

An Google Group search on these parameters returns:

author:muahman returns 4210 hits

author:muahman shit OR {*filter*} OR {*filter*}ing OR {*filter*}head OR {*filter*} OR {*filter*}
OR{*filter*} OR ass OR damn returns 1330 hits

It's limited to only 10 search parameters, otherwise I'm sure I could
add more cuss words and get more hits.

The correct spelling is "psychotic." Again, I corrected it for you. And
you forgot to capitalize "Snit," "MacKay," and "Carroll."

1.How to Killfile Snit, Carroll, Krinkle, Sandman, MacKay

I've rarely kill filed Authors over the years but today I cleared out:

Snit
Steve Carroll
Krinkle Frys
Sandman
Steve Mackay

and for a Bonus I did Gactimus

If you are using MT-Newswatcher:

Select offending Author, example Snit...

Go to the Filters Menu, Choose "Kill this Author"

Click "OK"

Then Repeat with each annoying Author of your choice.

Then to see your work...

Choose the Filter Menu again,

Then "Refilter Articles"...

Bam! No more boring, pointless bickering about nothing.

Enjoy!!!!!

2.Thank you, Steve Carroll and Steve Mackay

3.Steve Mackay thinks the world revolves around Snit

Steve stated recently:

"Do I think it was right for Steve C. to post a quote that you didn't make?
No."

Why, Steve M., do you think that the other Steve should only post quotes
from me?

There is more to the world than me.  Sometimes other people make quotes...
and it is OK to quote them.
