Ramblings, v.2 » nasa http://www.mudman.us/ross v.2, even though this is my third (and a half) go at a blog Mon, 21 Sep 2009 18:47:17 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 en hourly 1 Tint today! …plus 2 bummers http://www.mudman.us/ross/archives/161 http://www.mudman.us/ross/archives/161#comments Mon, 13 Jul 2009 11:42:33 +0000 ross http://www.mudman.us/ross/?p=161 I get my car’s windows tinted today! Can’t wait. Appointment is at 1pm. Florida’s max is 28% front sides and 15% rear sides & rear window. I’ve been searching around to see what the various levels look like, and I think I’m going to get as close to 28% all over. I don’t like the stepped look that’s common on vehicles around here, and I don’t need to be pulled over for illegal tint, considering my employer.

In other news, I was one of the thousands of people who lined up in Titusville, FL to see Endeavor off last night. Fail. *sigh*

iPhone Push Notifications need fixing. I have 3 apps that receive push notifications – AIM, Star Defense, and Prowl. I got them in that order. After each one, I noticed that my battery seemed to drain just a bit faster. Now it’s to the point that my phone won’t even last a day with light actual usage. Example: 10% drop in a half hour. Fail. [For those playing the home game, that's 2 - count them - 2 fails for the price of one post!] Turned off Push, and I’m back to reasonable battery usage. Apple: please light a fire under your developers’ & testers’ asses and get 3.1 out (but only if it fixes battery usage with Push).
