At the risk of looking like a complete idiot

Here’s a bit of DOS batch-file scripting.

@ECHO OFF
ECHO. FOR loop test
for /L %%N in (0,1,12) do call :test %%N
goto End
 
:test
echo %1
 
goto :eof
:End
Echo.Reached End
pause

Today I finally decided to try this HDR thing I’ve heard so much about. It was actually quite easy. I may not be getting optimal results, but I think what I got is pretty cool for messing around for 15 minutes. I just set up AEB on my Rebel XSi, then took the resultant 3 images and threw them into Photomatix. The leftmost picture is the HDR-process result, and the other 3 are the -3, 0 and +3.

Hey Apple, YOU’RE holding it wrong

So yesterday, the iPhone 4 was released in the US, the UK and many other countries other than Canada. And the Internet is all abuzz over the problems with reception on the iPhone 4. Basically, the problem is that human hands are conductive, and when holding the bottom left corner of the phone, skin creates a bridge between the HSPA and Bluetooth/Wifi antennae (antennas?) and causes the phone to drop connections as seen here:

An iPhone 4 user sent an e-mail to Mr. Jobs regarding the problem and received a curt reply:

So, according to Steve, we all need to adjust the way we hold our phones. Not a huge deal I suppose, but as a clever user pointed out, I think we learned by example.

Resetting Adium to use user account icon

By Matthieu, June 1, 2010 9:47 pm

A clean Adium profile wiill by default use your Mac’s user icon as the “display picture” for your IM accounts. Changing your DP once breaks this association.

To fix : Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Adium 2.0/Users/Default/Account Status.plist and delete the “User Icon” Data value.

That’s it!
