Lynx!

Monday, October 2nd, 2006

Lynx is an awesome, command line based text browser. You can download and play with it here.

Press G to type in a URL. Use the up and down arrow keys to navigate from link to link. Use PageUp and PageDown to scroll. It’s so much fun, and unneccesary!

iTunes 7 Fix

Sunday, October 1st, 2006

Everyone I know that has upgraded to iTunes 7 have experienced awful skipping and distortion effects during playback, especially while playing games. I found a fix that appears to have solved the problems I was experiencing. It turns out that it wasn’t iTunes, but it was QuickTime that was causing the problems, and reverting to an earlier version of a particular file can fix the distortion and skipping problems.

Here’s a link to the forum post:

Download the files there and stick them in the QTSystem folder of your QuickTime install directory and you’ll be good to go!
