WTF. Mail App keeps opening up no matter how many damn times I quit the thing.
- chrisofspades
What version of OS X are you running - Lion or older? You can fix this, but the how-to varies a little depending on whether Lion or no.
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
Either way, I'm annoyed at whatever techs fixed your machine. They couldn't have cleaned up your system and repaired your damn permissions? Which I'm now going to suggest you do, Lion or no.
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
I'm on 10.5.8.
- chrisofspades
Except more politely. The damn was for them. So, to rephrase: one thing you should probably do is launch Disk Utility and repair permissions, then restart.
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
Okay doing it now. Slowly.
- chrisofspades
Good. Then after the restart you want to get into your Library. In Lion they've hidden it, which is why I asked if you're on it. Imma take pills and head upstairs but I'll check on you in about ten mins. Say something so I know you saw this.
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
Ah. Just saw your OS. We can actually get to your library the old-fashioned way. (now reporting in from PLEP Mac support HQ, btw ... ;-) i.e., upstairs) - it's in your home folder.
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
Okay reboot complete. What am I doing in the Library?
- chrisofspades
In the Library, you want to do two things: first, open the Caches folder and look for any cache files connected to Mail. I'm pretty sure the follow the syntax com.apple.mail ... ; there might also be an Apple Mail folder. Take a look to make sure they're really just cache files - I'm pretty sure your mailboxes are in Application Support, which we're not touching, (and which prolly don't...
more...
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
Are you seeing the thing about the cache files? I'm checking in because I'm using the iPhone version and it doesn't automatically refresh, and I was still posting when you asked - so I want to make sure we're still together.
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
There's a folder ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.mail, with a Cache.db inside. Delete the whole folder?
- chrisofspades
(And yes, I had removed all my accounts from Mail hoping that would stop the chaos. It did not.)
- chrisofspades
After you do the cache files, we're gonna trash some .plist files in the Preferences folder.
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
I just trashed Cache.db
- chrisofspades
They'll have very similar names to the cache files, except for the extension, which is - surprise! - .plist. So: com.apple.mail.plist, com.apple.mail.settings.plist (maybe) ans so on.
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
Since you're not using Apple Mail I think that's smart. You may need to restart before you can actually empty the trash. The system might claim the cache.db is still in use.
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
Okay .plist files have been trashed.
- chrisofspades
Excellent. This should solve it, though we are dealing with software so I'll hedge and say I hope we've solved it. But this process is what I generally do anytime an app goes nuts on me. I also use it when're an Adobe Creative Suite app crashes, on the theory that I don't want whatever took photoshop or whatever down once to do it a second time. ;-)
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
Let me know how it goes and what else I can do.
- Auntie Buttinsky Botts
Mail hasn't opened automatically since I restarted. Thanks so much.

I used to shower with my dad and brothers. I think that stopped when I became 5 or 6.
- Spidra Webster
I think it's also interesting to discuss this the other way around - at what age is it inappropriate for a child to see their parent/s naked?
- Melly Botts
12ish maybe?
- Stephen Mack
5 or 6, Spidra? Did you start grabbing their appendages and make elephant sounds? :P
- Bubba Botts
Probably, Bubba. It was right at face level. I honestly don't remember exactly what age I was when I stopped showering with the rest of them. It may have been earlier. I know it was no later than that, though.
- Spidra Webster
Melly, I stopped letting my daughter see me naked at about 3 or 4. I'm sure this is different for mothers of daughters and fathers of sons.
- chrisofspades
Hahahaaaaaaa, my Mum likes to tell the story of me going to use the toilet when I was a toddler, walking past Dad in the shower, and grabbing his tackle with freezing cold hands.
- Melly Botts
Josiah is 5, he sees both of us naked on a daily basis, and he showers with one or the other of us at least once a week. At this stage we still very rarely shut the bathroom door. Every now and then Josiah will ask for privacy and close the door, but most of the time he's the kind of kid who likes to do a lap of the house naked before he gets in the shower, yelling out "LOOK AT MY NUDIE BUM!"

chris, last I remember hearing about Ellis and the Warriors (I'm more a casual fan than a diehard) was a couple of years ago, when he was tearing it up in the playoffs. What happened since then?
- Andrew C (✓)
Monta Ellis and Curry are still young so won't provide much mentoring besides working by example. Monta was still recovering from his knee injury a few years ago. This whole organization is work in progress at point. I hope the new owner and management will turn things around.
- Rodfather
...if the front office (new ownership) sets the right tone, it could be a good place for young player, but generally, if Nelly is still the coach, it will be tough, as that coach doesn't have a positive history with developing players

Yep, Nellie doesn't like to play young guys. I was hoping Nellie would be gone by the beginning of the season. He's going to have to play him since he's the backup PG though.

Andrew, there was the moped incident, the negative comments he made after the W's drafted Curry, the injury problems, etc. I think he's still a bit immature to be tabbed a leader, but that could still change because as Rod mentioned, he's still young.

Women to Facebook: Stop banning our breast-feeding pics | Technically Incorrect - CNET News - http://news.cnet.com/8301-17...
Kelli H., NotdaBOTTurlokin4, Yvonne and 6 other people liked this
I have nothing against breast feeding or breast feeding pictures. My question for women, though, is why would you even want to be photographed while breast feeding? I always thought it was private, intimate moment between mother and child. I wouldn't want those types of pics out in the public.
- chrisofspades
from Bookmarklet
Some women feel far more open about it, and resent the inconvenience of having to hide something they consider beautifully natural because others are made uncomfortable thanks to culturally ingrained prudishness. Honestly, we should not have the least concern over a woman breast-feeding her child. Babies need sustenance, and breast-feeding is the way they normally get it.
- Moody (Sweet FA 4 Life)
Some people like it. I find some breastfeeding images are beautiful. Actually, it's the only time I like seeing boobs :)
- Starmama
from FFHound(roid)!
But as a woman, how would you feel if someone stuck a camera in your face while you were breast feeding?
- chrisofspades
How would you feel if someone did it to you, regardless? Intrusiveness is intrusiveness.
- Moody (Sweet FA 4 Life)
You've been interrupted while breast feeding, Moody? ;)
- chrisofspades
As an analogy, photographs of my infant sons sleeping on my (clothed or bare) chest are every bit as important to me as other moments. 'Intimate', 'private', and 'public' intersect in a variety of ways.
- Micah
I covered up when I nursed my babies in public because there are others who will stare or intrude my privacy. I don't mind images of nursing babies, they're lovely and sweet. But anyone who is a photographer should ask first before taking a photo. I mean, that's just common courtesy.
- Zulema ⋅ spicy cocoa tart
Would either of you take a "merightnow" type of picture while breast feeding?
- chrisofspades
LOL@Chris: You know what I mean. I mean that anyone coming up to you and snapping pictures without your consent is intruding rudely. The breast-feeding aspect is secondary.
- Moody (Sweet FA 4 Life)
Chris, honestly, no.
- Zulema ⋅ spicy cocoa tart
I guess my aversion to cameras is really showing here. I wouldn't want that picture taken, but if taken, certainly wouldn't want it posted to Facebook. But if the mother has no problems with it, then it's no business of mine.
- chrisofspades
I don't know how these women are breast feeding but when I did it, I just pulled my shirt up a bit and popped the baby on. I showed no skin. I'd have no problem taking or showing pictures of that. I imagine that the removed photos show bare breasts and/or nipple though. But that is not a typical breast feeding photo, in my opinion.

None at all. I wouldn't want that picture taken either though.

I have been asked several times to take breastfeeding photos. Some people share them and some don't. Art has often celebrated the human body and intimate moments. It's a bonding moment for mothers that many want to look back on. As for sharing on facebook, some images sharing makes sense and some it doesn't (to me), but I think their point is more one of freedom and not censorship. It's...

I've seen some breastfeeding photos that seem to be mostly about boobs and oh, they happen to have a baby in them too. Facebook needs to have a line and as much as I don't care about where that line is, once it's in place they have to enforce it. Plus, FB doesn't go around looking for these photos, people point them out. So stop sharing photos with people who might report them.

I fell in love with swype - I didn't think I'd like it, and it took adjusting, but I did. The one thing I don't like about it at all is that you can typo a word (teh for the, for example) and it ends up in the dictionary. Every so often I clear the settings, because on my phone it's a PITA to select a word and delete it from the dictionary - easier to just clear them all, and teach it the words it doesn't have that I use a lot.

Actually, there are lots of free (legitimately) typefaces available, at Font Squirrel and elsewhere. And you can probably still buy cheap collections of knockoff typefaces (also legal). The program *should* find a semi-reasonable substitute for the missing typeface. (I'll never give up on this one: A font is one size and style of a typeface, e.g. 11pt. bold Garamond. Garamond itself is a typeface.)
- Walt Crawford
Here's the link, noting that this is a relatively small collection because all of these are licensed for commercial use (at no cost): http://www.fontsquirrel.com/
- Walt Crawford
Depends on what I'm doing. If I'm trying to open someone else's file that has a font I don't have, then I'd ask the person to supply it to me. Otherwise, I'd just pick another one.

I hate that its so much colder in my house than it is outside. I had to take a walk just now to thaw myself out.

Yes. It's nice and warm outside. Inside, I need a coat and gloves.

What the hell is that about, Anika?
- chrisofspades
I have no idea! Must be the insulation, because at night it's been hotter in the house than outside.
- Anika
It's annoying.
- chrisofspades
Sounds like an insulation problem to me, too.

Also, my windows are all mostly east/west, so only the bedrooms are getting sun right now because they face south. Those rooms are HOT. The rest of the house is BRRRRRRR.

Our alarm clock has 2 different alarms you can set on it, so when the twins (high school) are home, my wife uses an alarm set for 5 a.m. When it's just the little one (elementary school), she uses an alarm set for 6:01 (I accidentally went past 6:00, and didn't feel like changing it). On days when I commute into work, I use the 6:01 alarm. On days when I telecommute, I have my phone set to go off at 7:45. On weekends, we usually don't use an alarm.

The traditional way to eat Filipino food is with your bare hands. There is no bread to keep your hands clean, either. You're supposed to lick your fingers.

LOL. At least with Filipino food, you can usually eat it with one hand.
- Victor Ganata

The other traditional way to eat Filipino food is to use a fork and spoon. You use the fork to put meat and/or veggies and rice onto the spoon, and then eat from the spoon. I still remember the look of utter incredulity on my oldest friend's face when he saw me eating like this.

But eating with your bare hands sure does make eating ant larvae and locust adobo more adventurous than it already is.

Victor, that fork + spoon method got a kid in trouble in a Montreal school, but he and his family eventually won out: http://www.philippinereporter.com/2010...
- Andrew C (✓)
I aped the fork and spoon eating method. Can't eat rice without a spoon now.
- chrisofspades
I gotta try that.
- Rodfather
I think other cultures in Southeast Asia do the fork and spoon thing, too. Maybe it developed as a compromise: they could use utensils so that they didn't look like savages to their colonial overlords, but it would still give you the same proportion of rice and meat/vegetable with each bite that you would achieve with eating with your bare hands. (I have absolutely no evidence for this.)
- Victor Ganata
That Montreal case is awful. What would have they done to him if he had used his hands?
- Victor Ganata
Are you kidding me? I'm so glad that kid won. Such b.s. Wow. My mom still used her hand when she eats. It's a skill trying to scoop the rice and be neat.
- Anna Lynn M.
I seldomly eat with my bare hand anymore. But I grew up with that as a norm.
