@Kol .. :] that, partially, might have been the purpose.... I don't know it exactly either. :] .. was I reflecting on a cat under the fax, and that it is hard to fax that way ... /?:] ... "underfaxing at its worst" .. - Petr Buben

Try rolling the cat through a press first. Flat cats fit into the fax easier. - Bob Blunk

Fax, Petr. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

even a flat cat... faxes just can't handle the hair. You'd have to shave the cat first, else the hair will burn and stick to the drum... a mess! (I am extrapolating from transparencies, mind, i don't have access to a cat to test) - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)

Am I the only one who saw this and their first thought was - My goodness did someone break that cats neck? It still freaks me out a little - Steve C

Steve, it does look a little out of place, but cats are pretty bendy. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

They fax much better if you flatten them first. What? - Kevin Pedraja

LOL, Kevin. - Kol Tregaskes

i can also imagine the cat going there cause it is snug and warm - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)

Ey, it would be a tad warm on there, especially after a long working day. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

@Caroline a lot of smokers hate it and they want to stop, but have no idea how - i on the other side always enjoyed the smoking, like a glass of good wine, really enjoyed it. and my hands were busy. when i stopped at first i had no idea what to with my hands in public. ;-) as for hulu, i live in the wrong part of the world for that.... lol - denise

I wonder if Pixar would have done a Monsters sequel (or any sequels for that matter) if they hadn't been acquired by Disney. - Jess Lee

Yay! Boo! - ♥patricia♥

I <3 Boo! ^_^ What a cutie! By the way, will she be in the sequel? Curious to know what the story will be and which characters will return. - April Buchheit

Jess - they did Toy Story 2 before being acquired. They've always said they weren't averse to sequels if they had a really great story to tell. And finally, Disney may have purchased Pixar but it seemed to me that it was so that Pixar could "take over" Disney animation and not the other way around.

invariant - I sort of vaguely thought that they did Toy Story 2 because it was Disney's IP and Disney was going to do a sequel (straight to video) with or without Pixar. - Andrew C

@Andrew C - That's how I read it in the book "The Pixar Touch". It was sort of a threat that Disney was going to do it by themselves and Lasseter came back and took over. - Andrew Smith

I really hope this is done in Pixar's soon-to-be Vancouver studio and I have *anything* to do with it. - Andrew Smith

Canon's 50mm f/1.2 lens is a piece of crap. I kick myself almost every day for spending so much money on this lens. How can such an expensive lens suck so badly at something as simple as autofocus?

yeah too expensive to be failing like that... my 1.8 also sucks at autofocus but its a 70 dollars one. hehehe - Oscar Juarez

So which 50mm do you recommend? the f/1.4? - Alex Scoble

Try this for serious lens review: http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews... - Pierre

I was considering getting the f/1.4 it is better at autofocus then the 1.8? - Mark Groves

Yeah, I was much happier with my f/1.4 for a helluva less amount of money. I'm using the f/1.2 on a 5d. What use is buying a fast expensive lens to shoot in low light if it's too dark to manual focus in low light and the thing can't autofocus for crap. This lens is my biggest regret of any photographic purchase I've ever made. - Thomas Hawk

I didn't know anyone even made a f/1.2 autofocus lens. It seems technically very, very difficult. - Kevin Fox

And that's saying a lot...because as far as I know you've made a lot of photographic purchases...well you sure saved me some money for whenever I get a Rebel. - Alex Scoble

That sucks big time. The AF on my Nikkor 1.8 is also meh, but like Oscar said both of us paid about a fifth of what you did for the 1.2. - Josh

Thomas do you have the same problems with your 1.2 in normal lighting conditions or just low-light? If it is only low-light it might not be just the lens. Just a thought. - Kenton

1.2 is a quick lens, and should kick ass in low light. maybe defective? - Morgan Haley

was it an 'L' lens? - Morgan Haley

Low light autofocus sucks the most, but even in more reasonable light I've still been unhappy. I might not bitch so much if I only paid a couple hundred bucks or so, but when you pay $1,600 for L Series glass you really should get more than the performance that I've gotten out of this lens. - Thomas Hawk

I'll agree that it does suck at focusing in low light, but the back focus issues some have hasn't been a problem for me. I do love the lens for normal use. I used to have the 50 1.4 too it was a great lens, far and away better than the 1.8 (some asked in this thread). I just got my 5DMII, so I'll be re-evaluating it on that body shortly... - Ryan

Right. The jump from the f/1.8 to the f/1.4 represents great value. But the jump from the f/1.4 to the f/1.2 does not. A big part of the appeal of f/1.2 is to shoot in low light in my opinion and for the money I give the f/1.2 a fail in this regard. Will be interested in how it handles with your m2 - as well as mine if I can ever get one. - Thomas Hawk

Thomas, I've found that on a 5D, the 50mm f/1.2 only focuses reliably when using the center AF point (i.e. the sole cross-type AF sensor). This speaks more to the AF system in the 5D than the lens, methinks. FWIW, I've generally been happy with the sharpness of the low-light photos I've taken at f/1.2: http://bit.ly/50mm-f1... - Jason Chen

if it's the L lens, Canon should replace or fix it for you because it sounds like it's not working as it was designed to work. i'm sure you have looked into this deeper than anyone, but just wanted to make sure you weren't forgetting that the lens is supposed to kick all ass. when it fails to do so, i'd tell Canon. the 'L' lens mystique is something like like to maintain. if that doesn't work, i'll buy it from you for $50 bucks. - Morgan Haley

TH - don't chuck it in until you pay with the low light on the 5d'II ;) - Phill Price

The 50 f1.4 on the 5DMkII is awesome - I used it on my 350D until I received the 5DMkII yesterday - cheez I love Full-Frame! - meckimac

I have been shooting the 50 f1.2 on my RED. genius stuff. - mikehedge

Good to know, then I'll make sure to get the 1.4 - THANKS! - Richard G

Totally forgot to mention, when I do my weekly (or so) review, I'm using Hao Chen's GreaseMonkey Script. It's a life saver! http://userscripts.org/scripts... - Just updated the post to include the link as well. - Justin Korn

Solid advice. I really like the part about looking into their stream and analyzing what associated services mean what about which users. I'm relatively new so preventing noisy feeds is good. However, you should give a nod to the hide feature which lets me hide services from some users. I am a huge fan of that since it lets me get down to the really good bits of content being shared. - Derick Valadao from twhirl

Useful primer. - kamla bhatt

@Derick: Glad you found my post useful. As for the "Hide" function, I use it all the time, but I did not want to dig into how to deal with the noise issue. My main point was to inform users how I deal with my subscriptions in order to ensure my feed is relevant to me and my interest. In the long run, this is the best noise reducer there is (IMO). - Justin Korn

@Justin: Maybe it would make a suitable topic for a follow-up. I know the hide feature has been documented in many places but it would be really helpful to have a recent, well-written reference on how to filter out the noise within feeds you would normally find interesting. - Derick Valadao from twhirl

@Derick: I agree, it would be a great follow-up, however, I think Louis Gray's article hits home on covering how to use hide (http://www.louisgray.com/live...). If you haven't read it, give it a whirl and let me know if you still think another write-up is needed :) - Justin Korn

@Justin: ah yes. I remember reading that article. It did to a pretty good job. Thanks for reminding me. I did use some of his hints and it did a pretty decent job of keeping the talking points in focus. Maybe you are better to just link to the article in case others haven't read it :) - Derick Valadao from twhirl

@Derick: Chris Baskind also started this thread (http://friendfeed.com/e...) which has some good tips. I'm guessing he is thinking up a post on this very topic as we speak/write. - Justin Korn

@Justin: Wow is that ever an expansive list. I think your suspicions are well placed. - Derick Valadao from twhirl

When I picked up my iPhone this morning, the salesman was trying fairly hard to get me to sign up for MobileMe but I kept on pushing him off, saying that I wanted to mess with the trial a little more before I committed. Very, very glad I did that. - Akiva Moskovitz

I use MobileMe and so far, no issues. knock-on-wood - Rom Feria

Been using MobileMe since it was called iTools and free with very few issues ever. It keeps my contacts and my calendars and my mail settings synced between 3 Macs. - Adam Turetzky

Is there a known set of circumstances in which this occurs, or are the circumstances fairly random? - Ontario Emperor from fftogo

No reason, no idea why it happened? I understand it's bad news for you, and could be for others, but couldn't this be a random incident? Isn't it a little hasty to go telling everyone MobileMe is a disaster? - Tim Hoeck from NoiseRiver

Thanks Robert. Signed up for MobileMe, but have yet to investigate. Looks like you saved me the trouble! - Bill Sanders

Tim: lots of other people I trust are having troubles with it too. It could be a random incident, but I'd rather have my readers be very careful with this. I've never seen this behavior before. No idea why it happened and since it's taken me more than two hours of resynching with Google Calendar to try to get it back I'm not very likely to try it again. Uninstall. - Robert Scoble

Walt Mossberg says not to go for Mobile Me either. What is his headline? "Apple's Mobileme is far too flawed to be reliable.": http://ptech.allthingsd.com/2008072... - Robert Scoble

I gave MobileMe a rather rigorous testing for a week, and found it to be just one aggravating issue after the next. http://tinyurl.com/6lnzg6 if you care to read. - Evan Sims

Is this just an Outlook problem? Or can it affect iCal too? - John

John: I don't know. I'm using Mobile Me on a Windows Vista computer with Outlook 2007. - Robert Scoble

Thanks. I just backed up my iCal just in case. Apple needs to get their sh!t together. First iPhone 2.0 and then of course the MobileMe disaster. - John

Thank god, this is one of the few mishaps of MobileMe that didn't happen to me, yet. Woke up to deleted contacts on my iPhone one morning. Thank god, they were "only" deleted on the phone, so nothing was lost. But it just makes you remember: "When was the last backup?" - Holger Eilhard

I don't like to rant about Apple, but don't they test this stuff. what about 2.0 firmware for iPod touch and iPhones that is really unstable with the appstore? I know they can't test every config, but atleast try to work out the bugs. Everyday I here of another mobileMe disasters.. I'm happy I still have old treo, which is buggy too, but at least it won't automatically delete my contacts and appointments for me... - Sebastiaan van den Akker

I don't have my calendar on MobileMe, but I know it screwed up my address book. - Francine Hardaway

While there's probably a unique circumstance in which this happens, the fact it is possible at all is scary to say the least. - Sam Law

I have found that redundacy is a good thing. Which is why I keep more then one calendar. - Paul from twhirl

Are there any free and/or open source products which fulfill the same features as MobileMe? Preferably open source so anyone can just up and install as required. - Scott Jarkoff

Before making such proclamations, you might want to do a little homework. Did you even talk to MobileMe tech support? http://www.apple.com/support.... There might have been a simple fix had you checked. I've been using MobileMe since July 18th; I sync three Macs and my iPhone and haven't had any major issues. I'm adding an XP laptop next; I don't expect any problems with that either. - Albert Willis

Albert: a simple fix? Google Calendar has been going for six hours recreating my calendar so far. This was a problem with Outlook. I have 8,400+ calendar entries. It's only recreated 2,400 of them so far. Sigh. Macs don't even have Outlook so, of course you haven't had problems yet. Hope nothing bad happens on your XP machine. I'd back up just in case. At least my calendar will be back tomorrow cause I had a backup. - Robert Scoble

That is, there could have been something Apple could have done to restore your calendar entries, assuming you synced your calendars to MobileMe. That would have been worth a shot. Again, we don't know the culprit here, between Outlook, Vista, MobileMe and whatever else is installed on your machine. I've done enough tech support to know we don't have the complete story here. - Albert Willis

Albert: no, once the calendar entries were deleted, you needed to move them over from somewhere else. There was no way in hell I was going to let it touch my calendars anymore after that. I know Google Calendar will work. My trust in this is shot. - Robert Scoble

I know it's not as critical a failure as calendar but you should try the gallery...I struggled with using it and sharing it for a week before giving up and going back to flickr... - Kamath (नमः)

I didn't have any problems with calendars on MobileMe, but it decided one morning to delete all of my contacts bar three. That was the point at which I decided I'd move back to using Exchange, which Just Works on the iPhone, and (via Entourage) on my Mac. And amazingly, I had people trying to tell me it wasn't Apple's fault, despite it being Apple technology, running Apple software, on an Apple machine! - Ian Betteridge

people love to piss on apple these days, ain't that right? Exchange deletes calendars as well as google calendar. It just happens. Ask an exchange admin how much fun it is to run that b*tch ;) - muzo

muzo: I dare you to come up with any Fortune 1,000 CTO who says that Exchange deleted a calendar like this with a recent version of Exchange. - Robert Scoble

yeah, but from the user end it WORKS. get it? Exchange == most worthwhile product MS produces. Period. I'm going to bed. - Andrew Feinberg

Andrew: right. And anyway, Apple is the beneficiary of more free good PR than any other tech company around. - Robert Scoble

It's a version 1 Apple product - that means "early beta" in anyone else's language. - Andrew Garrett

With every post I get happier that I did not waste my $100 on mobile fail. - Bob Blunk

I'm incredibly sad to hear that this implementation is failing so badly. It's a utopian feature we all benefit from. If Robert ditches this and convinces other to, Apple will really miss out of good feedback from the community. Anyone found out if Apple responded to this major setback? - Mark Aitken

Not worth the very limited utility given the fact that it won't sync up with Google Calendar, either. I got MobileMe through my brother's family plan, and still had to buy Spanning Sync to do that. And I have to keep the intermediary computer on (my home iMac) because it doesn't sync OTA. There's got to be something better than this... - Jason Menayan

Had the initial trouble with MobleMe during the .Mac switch and have stopped using it - even though I paid good money for the service. On the flip side, I'm finding Live Mesh to be surprisingly more useful and it's a free "Tech Preview." Go figure. - Paul Dain

For those who would like to uninstall Movile Me: http://tinyurl.com/6q37oo Talks you through the process. - Paul

I had some initial problems with the service but it's quite stable for me, so far. - John Staton
