Smoke Gets In Your Imac: Smoking Near Apple Computers Creates Biohazard, Voids Warranty
Unless you’ve recently arrived in 2009 on a time machine, you know that smoking isn’t good for you. Did you know, however, that smoking isn’t good for your computer, either? It’s true, at least according to Apple. Two readers in different parts of the country claim that their Applecare warranties were voided due to second hand smoke. Both readers appealed their cases up to the office of God Steve Jobs himself. Both lost.

Frankly, I’m with Apple on this one. I used to repair computers in an industrial environment and the machines off the factory floor were nothing compared to the smokers machines I have seen. You computer has a fan in it to ventilate the heat. This means that it sucks in the air around it and blows that air over the delicate electronics inside. With smokers, this coats everything with smoke tar. Opening one of these computers is like putting your face in an ashtray and blowing.

Google’s Chrome OS revealed — with video! — Engadget
Google had a low-key event today to preview Chrome OS, its new operating system based on Linux and the Chrome browser. Things are still pretty early — it’s not even in beta yet, let alone on shipping products — but that’s the first official screen shot right there
via Google’s Chrome OS revealed — with video! — Engadget.
Somewhat disappointed it wont run on anything with a standard hard disk, but as it’s open source, it’s only a matter of time.

what to do when a friend asks your opinion of his crappy art
“Panic will soon give way to powerful feelings of disgust, confusion, and anger. If the artist persists in drawing your attention to the bad art, and asking for your honest opinion, you are likely to experience psychosomatic physical symptoms such as nausea, dizziness, tightness in the throat, dry heaves and vomiting, inflamed sinuses, epileptic seizure, dry-mouth, a red scaly rash that covers your entire body, halitosis, sometimes called bad breath, auditory and visual hallucinations, a burning sensation while urinating, hot flashes, cold sores, catatonic stupor, coma and death.
You may become angry at God, cursing his name, challenging his authority, blaming him for a world where the innocent must suffer the agony of seeing and responding to bad art. You may condemn the unfairness of a universe where some are born so talented that their indifferent doodles make everyone want to sing, while others labor all their lives at creative efforts which elicit only horrified cringing. Stranded and alone in the vast, empty black void of your socially awkward situation, you may find yourself rejecting God’s alleged cosmic love as a ridiculous anthropomorphic sham.”
