The suckage that is Dell Tech Support
As you may know, I bought a Dell Inspiron mini 9-Inch
to hackint0sh it. I got it running Mac OS X with only a little difficulty (mainly around trying to shoehorn OS X onto a tiny SSD). Then the Wi-Fi card went out. Now, I'm stuck in Tech Support Hell.
Star Trek boldly went where no one had gone before: good
There are a gazillion reviews for the latest Star Trek movie out there. Here's mine.
The place they went that no one had gone before? They made a good prequel. Virtually all revisits of classic things (c.f., the Transformers, George Lucas' revisits to Star Wars and E.T., Batman) are terrible. This one is the best in a long, long line of movies and TV shows.
Entourage Rule to Filter Russian Spam
I'm starting to get a lot of Russian spam now. The good news is that I don't understand it, so I can't possibly fall for it. The bad news is that my junk email filters and even Postini are not catching it. I created a rule in Entourage that handles them.
See and Look
In English, "see" and "look" have very similar meanings, while "oversee" and "overlook" have almost opposite meanings. I find this amusing. It's even more amusing when it shows up on a resume like the one I saw today:
I overlooked a team of five doing blah, blah, blah...
So, did this person fail to notice a team of five that was doing a lot of important work? Or did he actually mean that he "oversaw" them? 
I also notice that we can have an insight, but not an outsight. We can have an outlook, but not an inlook. We can oversee and overlook, but we can't undersee or underlook, unless we are perhaps undersea.
Poker Copilot: The only poker helper for Mac users?
I've done a bunch of work in online poker lately (for Cigital), and so it's important for me to improve my game to where I'm not just one of the fish. I was keen to try some of the software that's out there, but I'm a Mac user. I'm not going to use Windows just to play poker, especially when both PokerStars and FullTilt Poker offer Mac native clients. That's where Poker Copilot comes in. I tried a couple others, but they seemed too limited, too "beta," for my purposes.
