Re: Using Yahoo! Pipes: Steam Achievements in Friendfeed

Skit — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 22:40:41 -0000

Team Fortress 2 stats don't show up in the Pipe. I assume this would be because of the acheivements tab. :(

I guess another step in to ipe would be need to check if it's the TF2 game and then append ?tab=achievements to the url before parsing the page?

Sorry, don't know why I didn't think to include it in the first comment.

Haven't looked at the page source, hopefully the actual achievements list is structured the same. :)

Thanks Carlo!

The Lifestream plugin dev is going to make sure it now works in the wordpress lifestream plugin. He apparently copied your pipe to make sure it was always available for his plugin.

Hi!

Just wondering if your still using PearBudget? Finding it useful?

Not enough time. We ended up having lunch etc at Shan's place. So no time to really take in the area on the way home.

But definately want to head up that way again with more time to spare.

Re: New DVD - Space

Skit — Mon, 06 Sep 2004 07:14:51 -0000

Was it the actual DVD that was scratched or just the case? Mine was actually wrapped in the security plastic, so it was okay.

I don't mind if products end up getting sent from another place. If it's easier for them and means I get the product quicker, no problem.

But the problem is if that is the case I expect a brief note somewhere to say where to expect it from and adequate packaging.

I never did contact EzyDVD regarding it as mine was not damaged. If your going to contact them regarding it let me know and I'll fire an email to them aswell. Power in Numbers. :)

Re: Portable SSH using puTTY

Skit — Tue, 10 May 2005 04:51:27 -0000

USB Flash drives, from what I've read, have around 1mil read/writes.
Saying that I know of people how have been using their USB Flash drives for 12months+ with no issue.
After 12months it might be time to 'upgrade' as the physical integrity of the product may be questionable from the daily use.

Also another alternative, but more expensive, would be perhaps a USB Laptop HDD. Still mostly pocket sized and plenty more storage. Just depends on what you need to carry with you.

Re: Serenity DVD

Skit — Tue, 20 Dec 2005 21:02:59 -0000

Hi OldCyborg,

No other pictures of the covers were released when I posted this story. However, ExyDVD has since listed the Serenity DVD with Tin Cover for preorder. The Tin Cover can be seen here.

There is no reason why any missing characters cannot come back in another movie. 'Flashbacks' are always an option, just hopefully not used in a tacky way.

There is a WikiPedia entry with the same info but it has been disputed, citing lack of sources. Nothing appears on Snopes. Is there any official press on this?

I've been keeping an eye out, but I haven't found anything just yet.

Hey Stephen,

No idea why the thread was closed. Perhaps there were some post later on they could have possible legal ramifications...

Who knows. :/

Hi Munnday,

Have caught up on the post regarding DC on 4WM. Will keep an eye on it and post an update here in the coming days. Hopefully drumming up some more support.

Re: Mobile Call Back Spam

Glad to see this post is helping. :)

Pretty sure this type of scam hit the news recently. I think it may have been TodayTonight?

Re: Mobile Call Back Spam

Skit — Fri, 07 Apr 2006 07:55:29 -0000

Time to step up the crusade a bit perhaps? We at 4WM have been considering taking what we’ve dug up to the media for a while, but we honestly don’t know if it’s enough to really peak their intrest :-\

Could be considering the new no call list...

Re: Mobile Call Back Spam

Thanks Oscar, have added the number to the list.

Got pranked by another new number last Sat night, 02 8404 2213. :/

Re: Mobile Call Back Spam

I've noticed it's not listed for some numbers, but is listed well for both of our sites on others.

Hi guys, we have set up a forum for this as well, please visit http://www.4wisemonkeys.com/community/ (skit we would love you to join and also help us on future scams)

Done!

Just a quick FYI. Will have this site redesigned tonight. Was only recently informed that it's not displaying properly in Firefox. :/

Re: Upgrade and Theme Change

Skit — Sun, 21 May 2006 20:24:13 -0000

By the way, over at LJ, did you make the comments block at the top of your post, or was it a plugin? I think the Live+Press plugin doesn’t work with 2.0?

I've actually changed to lj-crossposter. Alot neater than Live+Press and works with WP2. :) Only downside is it very simply in design and only cross posts all enteries based on cats. But hey it works. :D

Re: Mobile Call Back Spam

Skit — Tue, 23 May 2006 04:20:25 -0000

Thanks to those last few posters listing new numbers. Have called them just be sure and I was able to verfiy both 02 8404 2215 and 02 8404 2296. I wasn't able to verfiy 02 8404 2298, it sounded as if I wasn't able to connect to that number.

The first two numbers have now been added to the list. :)

Re: Upgrade and Theme Change

Skit — Tue, 23 May 2006 04:22:04 -0000

Only downside is it very simply in design and only cross posts all enteries based on cats. But hey it works.

I tell a lie, just stupid me getting used to the WP2 layout. There is actually a new option block when posted for Livejournal with a simple toggle option between Crosspost and Do not crosspost. ;)

Re: Mobile Call Back Spam

Skit — Sun, 28 May 2006 05:28:47 -0000

Only problem is my phone cannot put so many numbers under one contact (ie. Spam). Sony Ericsson K500i. Any ideas?

Good point John. My only suggestion would be to create multiple contacts in the phone, eg. Spam01, Spam02 etc. Thus you can spread the numbers over the multiple contacts.

Another option would be to only include numbers that you may be bombarded with calls from.

Re: Mobile Call Back Spam

Skit — Sun, 11 Jun 2006 20:49:20 -0000

Whirlpool forum doesn’t keep threads running forever due to the high load on the servers. They also have a huge amount of posts per day. I doubt if its to do with any legal requirements, just a server load reduction (searches etc.)

Garry,
I very much doubt that was the reason as it was removed only a few days after the original posting. :) That and the guys behind this are rather annoying with 4WM at the moment.
Not a problem with sending a link to friends, I will make an update to this list during this week to include any new numbers mentioned on this page.

Anyone got any ideas as to why I would be getting these calls - is there somewhere like on a prank call website that someone might have listed my number?? Any other ideas? Thanks.

Jim,
I'm not aware of any such list, but it could be that you number has been incorrectly printed on a flyer or something.. But usually you would find that out pretty quick hen people ring and ask about the advertised product/service. Rather odd...

Philo: Hi Administrator - why won’t you post my reply to simon? I’ve submitted twice - but its not being displayed?

Apologies Philo, your comments had been caught in the spam filter which I only check every week or so. Have been cleaned out and posted above. :)

Re: Mobile Call Back Spam

Skit — Mon, 19 Jun 2006 22:41:24 -0000

Just to point on one item in your reply Philo.

Up to you whether you send a mobile number - but if you called back by mistake, they will have already confirmed your mobile.

I fail to see how that is technically possible given that the same number is used for multiple mobile calls and there is no verfification in the actaully spam answering message.

Re: Mobile Call Back Spam

The other great thing was racing around in Mario Kart on the Nintendo Wireless linkup. Racing people around the world, on the new and old race tracks from GBA/N64/SNES. I was rather excited to see the original Mario Circuit from the SNES on there in all it's low graphics glory. :D

Hi Christina,

Would love to grab it on DVD too, great event and the TV coverage was perfect.
But for this Christmas I think we'll be out of luck. The 2005 DVD was only released 06 November 2006. So I doubt we'll see the 2006 DVD for at least 6months... :(

Hi Paul,

Not a problem! If you need me again there is a Contact Page. Just not so obvious on this theme with the small icon to the left... :/

Now regarding Trisexuality. I don't think I'll be able to help you there... I seem to recall having to go back to Jark (author) to try and figure something out and never really got anywhere...

What I will suggest thou is if you have modified his theme install a clean copy (rename the folder) just to make sure it wasn't something we did. I can't recall if the bug was there in the original version or not.

Hope that helps!

Rob

You know I'm not sure... I've only just started to use a Windows Mobile device with Vista myself and haven't found the option yet. A quick search isn't that helpful either.

Will let you know if I find something. :)

Re: Day 12: RSS and Atom

Skit — Fri, 06 May 2005 04:16:28 -0000

Tip: If you are only using M2 for RSS, I have two more suggestions to make. First, click on “Received” under “All Messages” and then over in the right hand window click on the View icon (eyeglasses), then choose “Show” and make sure that “Show Newsfeeds” is checked.

Isn't this the same as clicking 'Read Feeds' under the 'Feeds' menu?
