4GB SD card in a Nikon D50 does not work
"THIS CARD CANNOT BE USED"
I cursed the card that I picked up cheap at instead of my camera
apologies to Taiwan... the 4GB SD card (Secure Digital High Capacity Memory Card) from Taiwan, and more recently Abacus 24-7 didn't work 'cause the Nikon D50 only accepts up to 2GB. Blast.

Network question.
Agaric wants Eclipse to flag the entire file prominently, not just a line, when it has a parse error
Agaric wants a plugin or something for eclipse that will make it very clear around the document that a fatal parse error has been identified somewhere in it— not just a mark on the side of the line with the problem. Too easy to miss.

Getting trained by Eclipse PDT: Opening an existing folder of files as a project
So you have a directory structure of a project, say it's a giant site you're taking over, and you want to open it as a project in Eclipse PHP Development Tools (PDT) to be able to use the project-wide search and other cool tools.

Macbook batter not charging. Scared to unplug at 86%
MacBook model A1181, battery A1185.
Plugged in it won't discharge the battery any more, but it won't charge either.
This is new.
And not good.
Research:
macbook battery stops charging at 98%, is it dying already?

Get Linux running on your Linksys Router
Recently my router was giving me some problems, the worst type, dropped signal!
After hours of searching around in forums and such, I concluded that it must (hopefully) have something to do with Linksys's generally bad router software, you know, the page you goto to make all your settings and stuff... usually found at 192.168.1.1
On to the good stuff...
It's all actually quite simple, and I've taken the liberty to get all you need and make it available for you right here... so, feel free to send me some beer money, or better yet, BEER! (keep in mind, I only drink quality micro and craft brews...)
Automatically making connections
Just a quick post to note that the Facebook functionality where when you type in a URL it instantly finds if there's a Facebook group with that web site is pretty cool.
It puts a little too much information about the group right embedded in your post, but still a very cool connection-maker (or re-enforcer).
