last.fm playlists now limited to 200 songs, so I tried "play library". Now I'm getting exclusively Spanish music, some good. Bug?

Has anyone written a killfile for iTunes podcast RSS? Maybe time for Yahoo Pipes or something.
Having to double SSH tunnel thanks to useless security paranoia. OpenSSH error messages when forwarding fails are so helpful. Not.
My first Spanish language telemarketer. Joy.
You have to group a Numbers chart with something else if you don't want its aspect ratio to mysteriously reset when you copy it. Grr.
Finally wrote some vaguely linear introductory text. Interview for GAship tomorrow. Nearly cleared email backlog. Hope springs eternal.
Been finding more uses for Hazel (http://www.noodlesoft.com/h...) every day. If you have files accumulating anywhere, you need it.
Emacs and OS X fight: I hit M-q for fill-paragraph. In the interim an installer package finishes downloading and opens. ⌘Q: Installer quits. ...
Good idea: riding my bike home from practice on a cool summer evening. Bad idea: coming home to apartment where the A/C still isn't fixed.

Good to see sysinstall's handling of broken servers hasn't improved in the past 10 years. Sigh.
In some ways Apple I BASIC was more user-friendly than Applesoft. Digging the AUTO command. And POKE but no PEEK, weird.
@uliwitness Time Machine to AFP mounted volume from my iMac works fine for me.
@boredzo My guess is because OS X's font rendering is old, crufty, fragile and only halfway through its rewrite.
China blocks openjdk.java.net. Umm...
Also, apparently no number of "force quits" will actually work on Leopard Java GUI apps. Whee.
