Martin Slaatto is weird…

» 24 October 2007 » In Uncategorized » No Comments

…and really loads of fun!

Went to see Martin Slaatto´s new show/installation/act at Maridalen Skytebane in Oslo. It was one 1h of strange experience. A man dressed in a red track suite, jumping around, climbing trees, flying a remote controlled helicoptre and suddenly reciting Hamlet. Everything without irony, but not without humour! 1hour fun with free coffee and rolls for 100kr. Well recommended!

Check out his website: http://www.slaattosloyfa.no

Here is a review of the show: Slaattos lek på alvor (its in Norwegian)

Changing a XP folder’s name text colour

» 28 August 2007 » In Uncategorized » 1 Comment

One day I came to work and suddenly all my folder texts were in ugly blue, rather than black. Being intolerant to changes (that I have not done on purpose), I eventually figured out how to fix the problem:

You can then set your folder view to display compressed folders in blue (Tools, Folder Option, View, Show encrypted or compressed NTFS files in colour)

It will only slow things down a little as the operating system has to decompress the data when accessing it. Never seen it corrupt data.

Thanks to toms hardware for making me sleep better at night.. :)

Easily download YouTube movies via Safari (osx)

» 16 August 2007 » In Uncategorized » No Comments

YouTube is great for finding all sorts of video clips, but wouldnt it be nice having them on your computer? And when I say computer, I mean Mac (it might even work on PCs, now that Safari is available on Windows too). So after some googling, I found the following tip at MacOSXhints.com:

If you’re using Safari, there’s an easy way to download YouTube videos. Open the page with the movie and press Command-Option-A (or Window – Activity), which shows the Activity window. If you’re also loading other sites, you’ll see a list of them: scroll until you find the YouTube page and click on the arrow to show details about what is being loaded.

You will certainly notice an element whose size is over 0.5MB (most of the time, over 5MB). Double-click on it (even if it is still loading), and Safari will download it. When the download is over, navigate to the file in the Finder (which will probably be called get_video) and add the extension .flv to its name. Now you can play it with VLC or with QuickTime (only if you have Perian installed).

Fantastic!
