I have a very serious problem. When I grind my coffee beans in the morning the grounds fly all around by what I think are electrostatic forces. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Set it to a super coarse grind. :P

Yes I have. I have a cusiniart burr grinder that creates a lot of static electricity.

It's ironic that messaging apps have become the new command line interface. You can do everything inline without a GUI interface.

So my screensaver just stopped working on Yosemite/iMac. How does that happen?
Now I get my pictures on google docs. All there is is some useless filename. And given the flat namespace of google docs there's now even more pollution of the name space so I can't find anything. Not well thought out.

My problem with http://www.frenf.it/ is that from the westcoast it us just very slow. Not a nock on it, just what I experience.
Slow in terms of page loading or activity?
- John (bird whisperer)
It used to be more real-time, but with the importing, they've had to slow things down. I think it is difficult to judge what it will actually look like at the moment, while there's a timeline to import people's old posts.
- Jennifer Dittrich
Slow to access. It takes very long time to load and display thereafter. My suggestion is not to import FF if it impacts performance. Favor the new over the old.

In the future when an AI tries to recreate a virtual you from your vast data footprint, the loss of FriendFeed will create a big hole in your virtual personality. I think FF catches a side of people that isn't made manifest in other mediums.
And I may archive my posts, but a lot of my interaction here has been through comments that will disappear.
- Stephen Mack
I hope my virtual self has a chance to see what your virtual self becomes. I'm sure it will say something if it's not a right. Though since this comment will be lost, perhaps not.

"Now serious readers of Nietzsche, or those simply curious about his musicianship, can hear most of those compositions in a Spotify playlist above. Performed by Canadian musicians Lauretta Altman, Wolfgang Bottenberg, and the Montreal Orpheus Singers, the music ranges from sprightly to pensive, romantic to mournful, and some of it seems to come right out of the Protestant hymnals he grew up with as the son of a Lutheran minister. Nietzsche composed music throughout his life—a complete chronology spans the years 1854, when he was only ten, to 1887. See The Nietzsche Channel for a thorough list of published Nietzsche recordings and sheet music. To listen to the music here, you will need to download and register for Spotify."

"Just as some of us are getting used to the idea of the multiverse, along comes MIT physicist Max Tegmark telling us we’re not thinking big enough. According to Max, there are actually multiple multiverses, containing endless copies of and variations on the “pocket universe” we’ve quaintly come to think of as everything. Lest you think he’s tripping, Max assures us that he’s only high on mathematics and logic. And if the conclusions sound farfetched, well, progress in physics has often meant taking leave of our senses, ditching everyday intuition and trusting the science instead."

"Although Google originally sought to demote all comparison shopping websites, after Google raters provided negative feedback to such a widespread demotion, Google implemented the current iteration of its so-called “diversity”algorithm …. Google claimed the goal of this algorithm was to “increase the diversity of Google’s search results for product related queries.”"
