Bethune Hall

Bethune Hall is an old building on Main near Hertel. I did a couple years of art school there, back in 89-91 when it was part of UB.

It's for sale, so I called the number. 1.5 mill. It would probably cost that much to fix it, as it's pretty messed up. Still, it would be an awesome set of art studios.

Why google sucks

It seems that google is just a spam farm. If you click the first result in google, 99% of the time, it's spam. Maybe this is the way a new search engine will overtake google-by providing relevant results. Digg does this to some extent; if I'm looking for a site with decent css templates, google=spam but digg=relevance, with humans backing it up.

Wifi lunch update

I was going to Cafe Aroma on Elmwood for a wifi getaway, but today I hit Safari Grill across the street and they pick up the same signal! I prolly shouldn't be posting this because someone will read this who works there, but hey Safari Grill has lots of outlets, plenty of seats and so far pretty good food.

Email clients

I installed Thunderbird on my new mac 6 months ago and haven't transitioned to mail yet. I like how Tbird separates all my accounts. Maybe mail can do this, but I don't have time to figure it out.

One thing I hate about tbird is the way it doesn't soft-wrap replies; i.e., if I reply to someone's email the quoted email scrolls sideways.

wireless woes

I just went to Spot on Elmwood for lunch and a surefire wireless signal; I mean, they ARE the biggest cafe in Buffalo, right?

Like an idiot I ordered lunch before asking the worker. His answer was "you can go up by the windows and try to piggyback on someone else's signal". Yeah... bad Karma but they were all locked up anyway.

There should be a list of local eateries/hotspot status somewhere...if not, anyone wanna help me build one?

What color is the past?

I have to design a computer icon for "Undo". I'm making an arrow facing left, since in western culture (if that even exists any more), we think of things that face that way as looking backward. But what color? Red is no good; it just means stop; or alert, or something. Blue is mysterious but it doesn't signify time in any way. Green is good because it means go forward, and technically, red is the opposite of green, but as said above red is no good.
Arggh! Yellow?

itunes madness

Remind me to never buy another song off itunes. I have an endless loop of "you must authorize this computer to play this song" and "you have auhorized on more than 5 computers".

I bought the fucking song, let me listen to it whenever and however I want.
