Great tips, Chad. You speak from a lot of experience too, it’s easy to tell.

Haha, I got some Sparkfun swag for Christmas and that sticker had the same results on me. 🙂

Yeah that could have worked too. But I don’t have one, and do have tons of LEDs and lead acid batteries. 🙂

That’s great to hear about your much deserved down time Jimmy. Your job history has been very diverse. Kudos to you. 🙂

Haha, I like your new moniker. 🙂

Ooo, you got me there.

Oh thanks, man. Took me about a month to learn a bunch of PHP. But so fun.

One more thought: I want a Krull reboot. Wouldn’t that be sweet?!

I think you’re on to something there, Bruce. 🙂

Oh man, do I ever remember Krull! Wow, that remains one of my favorite fantasy films of all time. Great, great memories with you, Jimmy!
I own Avatar and convinced Sarah to watch it with me. She liked it a lot too!

That would have been fun, Had.

No problem! It was a fun fix. One caveat I should have mentioned though: if she uses a serial cable to connect the phone to a computer, that might not work. Some of those pads are missing on the connector, some of which might be for serial communication!

Automagically create annual month folders
Well that spoils the fun!

Thanks man.

Well, you could short the fuse but the board could smoke later.
I listed the part numbers in the post. You can find them on Digi-Key.

Hmm, bummer. Yeah, I’ve got some of my displays that were still dead after doing the fix. On some of those, I suspect that the power supplies were bad too.

Hi, Jinshin. Though it might appear otherwise, I’m not a design firm. I’m just a dude with a soldering iron. And time enough to spare on adequate documentation.

Heck no, IKEA gets enough credit for all our home decor. I’m taking the credit for this one.

And I should add that Iris only gets to watch Elmo about once or twice a week! 🙂
» Posted By Rob On October 11, 2011 @ 7:41 am
Hmm, I’ll have to check my old MX Revolution mouse to verify. Props to them for good design as well.
» Posted By Rob On April 28, 2011 @ 10:33 am
Ah thanks. Glad it made sense.

You’re just jealous that the Android platform (and open source community at large) is more splintered and inconsistent.
» Posted By Rob On April 19, 2011 @ 5:25 am
Spoken like a true competitor. 🙂

btw, I like you’re new gravatar. 😉

hello spammer, all your link are belong to us!

Tis the season to hack your address book…
How about that?! I’m glad this hack continues to help others, Daryl. It’s definitely strange how big software companies loose site of these details.

Whoa, nice work-around, Eli. Thanks for contributing to this annual discussion! 😉
» Posted By Rob On December 14, 2017 @ 7:37 am
Nicely done, Darryl! I’ve switched away from Apple products (https://www.electrolund.com/2015/11/platform-interchange/), but I’m glad that this post is still helpful this time of year.

«« Back To Stats PageHmm, no I haven’t tried it yet this year. Bummer, as I’m on Yosemite now too.
However, I’ve moved over to Google services for my address book. So, I don’t know that I’ll have to revisit this again this year.
