The FTC just appointed Ed Felten as its Chief Technologist. That’s holy-shit awesome.
This is the Princeton CS professor Ed Felten. The guy who helped show SDMI was useless, discovered flaws in voting machines and analyzed the Sony rootkit.
Hey may give Ray LaHood a run for his money as my favourite administration appointment.
Sometimes you launch Photoshop and get this error:
One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necessary for running Photoshop, are missing. Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop.
This is the dialog of four lies:
Lie #1: A file is missing.
Lie #2. The file is missing from the Application Support folder.
Lie #3: The file is necessary to run Photoshop.
Lie #4: You need to re-install Photoshop to file the problem.
The problem is that /Library/ScriptingAdditions/Adobe Unit Types.osax isn’t loading. It’s possible the file is actually missing, but it’s more likely that you’ve upgraded to Snow Leopard.
Snow Leopard requires 64-bit versions of every plug-in, including OSAXes. The version of Adobe Unit Types that shipped with CS3 and CS4 is 32-bit.
To fix this, download the 64-bit version of Adobe Unit Types, drag it to your ScriptingAdditions folder and launch Photoshop. Problem solved.
Anyone have a vector version of this?
I hope you rot in CAN-SPAM hell.
At least you included an unsubscribe link this time (but no physical address).
I never signed up for your stupid list, and have been trying to unsubscribe for WEEKS, including calling your customer service phone number, where the woman who answered swore up and down I would be removed — two weeks ago.
May your power be cut off on the coldest day of winter, just before a long weekend. May your dog run away. I hope your boyfriend dumps you, your mom calls you and tells you she’s embarrassed by your behaviour, the barista gets your order wrong, the waiter serves your food stale and cold and your boss fires your stupid, good-for-nothing law-violating ass.
All before noon.
