Menu Unlock Doesn't Work

If I can't unlock using the menu anymore, why bother having the "Unlock" button/selection?



Clicking Unlock will send you this dialog:

Alarm Menu Is Not Intuitive

Why the menu is defaulted to "Copy" after I change the time? Shouldn't it be "Close"?

Installed JL_Cmder To Capture BB Screen Shot

Downloaded JL_Cmder from blackberryfreaks.com, and using it to capture the screen shots on the BB. There are others commands such as deviceinfo, eventlog, wipe and resettofactory (hopefully I wouldn't use the last two).

I will write more of this utility once I figure out more.

The Flaw Of Twitter Private Message Workflow

Interesting, the problem, I encountered, is due to me following a fellow, so he could send me a private message. But, since he didn't follow me, I couldn't reply to his private message.

Screwed up workflow - me think.

Wrong Again

Took a wrong train again, instead of going to LAUS, I was being taken to San Bernardino. Luckily, I wised up and jumped off at Corona.

I could have arrived home at 6:30 instead of 8, damn.

Going Home Early

Someone took down the DB to the app that I am testing and conducted maintenance for 10 hours. I am going home.

Twit Error

wth? This is achieved by replying to direct message.

Sign Up With Twitter

Alright, I will sign up with Twitter. It doesn't really matter much since I have already treated this blog like micro-blog.

Atomichelix Notify! For BlackBerry Works

Read about it from BerryReview.com and I like the functionality, it is better to have some email saved to your Notes application instead of on the saved folder. It starts working after I upgrade to OS4.2.

Installed OS4.2.1.110 On BB8703e

We'll see how it works, if I am not saying anything: then things are working fine. If not, expect tons of complaints in this channel.

Sad Day For America: Senate Passed H.R. 6304: FISA Amendments Act of 2008

The law, roll call, and notes from media (all mentioned retroactive immunity):

Wired's Threat Level: Senate Approves Telecom Amnesty, Expands Domestic Spying Powers

/.: Senate Passes Telecom Immunity Bill

NPR:
Senate OKs FISA Bill, Immunity For Telecom Firms
Senate Approves Hotly Contested FISA Bill

NYTimes: Senate Approves Bill to Broaden Wiretap Powers

At least Krugman saw glass half full, and like the fact that Medicare funding is cut: Kennedy’s Big Day.

Notes:
  1. Obama voted yea, as highlighted by Boing2 Gadget: FISA passes providing immunity to wiretapping telcos, although he had sworn to filibuster it.
  2. McCain didn't bother to show up: clever.
  3. Wired's Threat Level pointed out the sinister side of the swing vote: Telecom Amnesty Flip-Floppers Got More Telecom Dollars

It is now counting 900 against Ruby (1159) and PHP (1218). It is very good growth considering it is half that of Ruby two months ago.

Bounced Back

Alright - I feel a lot better tonight. Hopefully, it is not the false feeling from the codeine.
