#SPAM often hawks "Cheap Adobe Microsoft S0ftware !!11", but today it was "Welcome! - Free Software Foundation". They're upping their game!

@brews AFAIK the default media player doesn't support Vorbis, Theora, or FLAC. And unlike MP3 & AAC, there's no DSP/hardware-acceleration.

@bigbrovar I applaud Nokia for pushing to upstream. I just wish that they hadn't blocked Ogg formats from HTML5...
-
@windsurfer Oh sure, you can _put_ software on the !n900 to play Ogg, but without DSP support, it takes 2x the battery as MP3.

I started in Portland, OR today & took an unexpected detour to Portland, ME. If I must be inconvenienced, it's nice when it brings symmetry.

I find a tin of Lyle's Golden Syrup at home. No bar code, no price, no year. I worry. It's dark, like molasses. I dip a spoon in. Mmm, sugar

#Christmas was excellent! Spoils included a nifty winter hat, a new dress shirt, and lots of tangerines and walnuts (from my stocking).

Honey Bucket ? It's a port-a-potty! Who chose that name -- a 3-month-old baby who ate honey, got botulism, & now has a grudge against honey?

Phew! Holiday card design done! A small idea became a huge project...just like every project. New-years resolution: do smaller projects!
