Re: How to Create a Bluetooth Shortcut in Windows 10

Thank you – worked perfectly (Windows 10)!

I find myself opening the Bluetooth settings a lot, mostly to turn it on & off when switching back‑and‑forth to being connected to either my ThinkPad & mobile device for my headphones. It gets annoying expanding the system tray trying to find it and sometimes the little icon disappears inexplicably even when Bluetooth winds‑up being on already, and so have to take an even longer route to the control panel setting – very frustrating, especially when in a rush. → Much better now. 👍
Plus, I’m a big fan of hotkeys → 𐌎+2’s way easier!

Re: How to Get a Certified True Copy of Your Canadian Passport from Passport Canada

Confirmed by Passport Canada: There is now a $45 administrative fee for this service.

@Riley Haas: Is this the form you completed to get the certified copy of your passport? » Form PPTC 516E, R6 [link] → The form [dated Oct., 2013 at the bottom] says that it costs $45, as does the Passport Canada website where I’m looking [last updated Mar. 28 /14]. The IRS agent I spoke with on the phone who recommended I get a certified copy said it would be free though, as does a section on an international tax accountant’s website that came-up in a Google search, along with what you said above. I too got a notice concerning my ITIN application. Mine didn’t say rejected though; it was requesting further documentation by July 20 or else it would be. Now I am freaking, trying to decide whether to chance receiving a certified copy in-time to mail-out and still make the July 20 receipt deadline, or to send my actual original passport and risk not being able to cross the border for a good friend’s wedding come September. Do I have the right form? I want to have it completed for if I decide to catch a ride into the city tomorrow, where the passport office is.

Yes, Brain Gravy is on the forefront of media creation. Aren’t we? :)
You guys need to make an audiobyte outta the clip of Leo saying that and play it over & over on your show. I always thought SIDT wasn’t morning radio-showy enough! :D

Wow.
ME: Diplomacy = 100% accurate. Also, I DO prefer the British Office. The no-doubt highly scientific methods you are using are superior to all others & whatever you’re getting paid, it needs to be more.

Re: Facebook Usernames are LIVE: 200,000 Usernames in 3 Minutes

JJJENNNNN — Sat, 13 Jun 2009 00:46:55 -0000

Grr... What does it mean if the usernames I am going for are "not available", yet the pages don't seem to exist yet? Does that mean they're reserved? If so, how do I go about using them? The fan pages are the official ones for the brandnames I can't seem to get, so I don't see how they could be reserved for anyone else.

May I ask which url shortener you were using?

Re: MTV Movie Awards: Live and Illegal

JJJENNNNN — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 00:00:13 -0000

Yeah I watched it online (Ustream then switched to Justin.tv) ...on account of me residing in Canada.
I expected it to be on Much Music, but I guess MTV pulled the plug on that at some point too.
Licensing restrictions aren't just not going away, they seem to be getting tighter and tighter. It's frustrating. Bless the hearts of those who put it out there for us non-Americans.

Sarah,

In case I'm not able to get around to it later, I dropped 3 mp4 clips: 1 line from the existing video, 1 original line, and 1 of me saying my name.

If any of those'll work, go ahead and use them. Otherwise, lemme know what you need.

Wouldn't it be cooler if we came up with new statements and facts to say for this version?

If not, I choose to play the part of Wil Wheaton.
