Import Google Reader Feeds into Mail.app

while Apple is not the fan of OPML

folks still crave for doing everything on Mac

I am in love with Google and Apple at the same time

Here's how I live with them peacefully

1. Export an OPML file from Google Reader

2. Save it to desktop

3. Run the following command in Terminal( in Utilities): perl -lne 'print $1 if /"(http.*?)"/' Desktop/google-reader-subscriptions.xml | pbcopy

4. Open Mail

5. Go to File » Add RSS Feeds...

6. Choose the Specify a custom feed URL radio button

7. Click in the entry box and hit Command-V to paste the feed URLs

8. Click the Add button

9. ALL SET

IF YOUR HAD SUBSCRIBED HUNDREDS FEEDS, THAT MIGHT TAKE A WHILE TO IMPORT...

JUST BE PATIENT

set drag n' drop output size in aperture

while you are using Aperture, it's quite convenient to just drag your photos(previews in Aperture's term) to anywhere your mac or any upload apps like Flickr Uploadr.
However, after few times of exporting to flickr like drag n' drop, i realize i wasnt exporting the real size i wanted to. Like i shot with 10 mega pixel and wanted exact same size to be stored on Flickr. I found it's always half or less than I expected.
Here I came to google and apple-support and I am not the only plant on this planet lol
Solutions as followed that:

1. the picture you drag from the aperture would be the "preview" in Aperture.
2. go ⌘ + , to preferences.
3. set previews size to no limit or any other you prefer.
   

now you are almost there, yet.
the previews wont be updated til you do that.
that requires you to delete the old ones and generate/update new previews then you can get whole library a no-limit drag and drop output size.

Amit telling something not that straight

彩虹

作詞：陳鎮川 作曲：阿弟仔

你整齊潔白的床 是我傾訴的地方
抱你哭著到天亮
你等待幸福的廚房 那次情人節晚餐
卻是我陪著你嘗

衣櫃不算太寬 藏著你的天堂 依然歡迎我分享
我們的愛很像 都因男人而受傷 卻又繼續碰撞

當天空昏暗 當氣溫失常 你用巨大的堅強 總能抵擋
當尖銳眼光 當刺耳聲響 你用彩虹的浪漫 溫柔包裝

衣櫃不算太寬 藏著你的天堂 依然歡迎我分享
我們的愛很像 都因男人而受傷 卻又繼續碰撞

當天空昏暗 當氣溫失常 你用巨大的堅強 總能抵擋
當尖銳眼光 當刺耳聲響 你用彩虹的浪漫 溫柔包裝

看我丟掉他的西裝 比我先紅了眼眶
笑我傻 陪我慌
當我找到幸福去向 幫我快樂的化妝
陪我傻 笑我慌

當天空昏暗 當氣溫失常 你用巨大的堅強 總能抵擋
當尖銳眼光 當刺耳聲響 你用彩虹的浪漫 溫柔包裝
HEY YEAH
HEY YEAH HEY YEAH

Convert .daa file on Mac

"因緣際會" 之下，電腦裡出現一些檔案，附檔名是daa
啥鬼？ 聽都沒聽過！
一查，知道在pc上透過一個PowerISO軟體做出來的映像檔。
Mac 上沒有這樣的軟體
但是有些先賢達人搞了非圖形介面的解法
我一看就放棄了

持續谷歌之後，發現了此一符合蘋果精神的好物
我們要圖形介面、而且美觀的圖形介面
我們要拖、放、完成
(我自己再加一個，我要免費！！！)

來吧～ 就在這兒
請享用～

Where's aXXo gone

今年三月之後，你就消失了
我訂閱你，但已經很久沒有更新
網路上大家都在問
但沒有人有答案

有人說你只是想休息一陣子
有人說你被抓了
也有人說，只是最近沒有好片發佈

你到底去哪裡了？
難道樹大招風嗎？
如果在搜尋引擎逐漸key入： where's aXXo
會發現竟然這世界上有這麼多嗷嗷待哺的鄉民
多到會進入Google Suggestions

快回來啊～

iPhone 也能逛PTT ！！？？

哈～ 好吧
我承認這標題太聳動
但我之前找了一些telnet的程式都無法解決
於是山不轉路轉
利用ptt發佈rss的功能
再利用google reader訂閱

tala~




記得rss address 是

版名大小寫有差喔
這是我定了好幾次Beauty版失敗的心得 XD

避免BOA收你服務費

從今年四月一日起
BOA將針對某些特定條件的帳戶收取服務費

• MyAccess® Checking
  

  Effective with statement periods beginning on or after June 5, 2009, the monthly service charge changes to: $8.95

• 避免之道
  

  Effective with statement periods beginning on or after June 5, 2009, meet one of the following requirements during each statement period:

• Have at least one qualifying direct deposit made to your account each statement period.
• Maintain an average daily balance of $1,500 or more in your account.

• Regular Savings- Monthly Charge $5.00
  

• Meet one of the following requirements during each statement period:
• Have a monthly automatic transfer of $25 or more from your Bank of America checking account to your savings account.
• Maintain a minimum balance of $300 or more in your account.

• Keep the Change® Savings Service

  When you enroll in our Keep the Change savings service, we round up the amount of any Bank of America Check Card purchase made by you or a joint owner of your checking account to the next whole dollar amount, and transfer the amount in excess of the purchase price to your savings account.

  We aggregate the round-up from purchases that post to your checking account each business day and make a single transfer (the "Keep the Change" transfer) at the end of the business day. If on a business day you do not have sufficient available funds in your checking account, or if any transaction has overdrawn your checking account, we do not round-up purchases posted on that business day and we cancel the Keep the Change transfer for that day.

  If your Check Card purchase is subsequently cancelled or reversed, the corresponding Keep the Change transfer will remain in the savings account. We may cancel the Keep the Change service at any time.

Pretending to Work: Microsoft Office for Mac

iPhone crashed and frozed

You can do anything, just can't see the display changing.

You can sync to your Mac, you can answer the call. But the screen just stay put.

Now, Press Home Button and Top Button at the same time.

(remember the "Ctrl + Del + Alt" thing?)

Good luck~

Why I switched from Firefox to Chrome | Webware - CNET

Why I switched from Firefox to Chrome | Webware - CNET:
"Chrome starts way faster than Firefox. Web pages load faster when I type in an address or click a link.
The Omnibox--Chrome's combination location bar and search box--often gets me where I want to go at least a keystroke faster, and I'm not terribly worried about sending Web navigation and search data to Google."

It is really faster.
And I'v subscribe to Mac version.
Just can't wait to come.

Note: More specifically, the report notes that the Mac version has reached the "test shell" stage, able to display websites but not much else.
