Richard's Notes

I don’t use Apple Mail very much. That’s only because it doesn’t have native support for GPG/PGP encryption. When will Apple add support for GPG/PGP encryption? S/MIME certificates are not nearly as convenient as GPG/PGP.

Anyway. Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve been adding pictures to various contacts in my Address Book.

Imagine my surprise when Apple Mail displays the picture of the person who has sent me an e-mail. I know it’s eye candy, but it’s pretty neat party trick.

Why is it so hard to find a WordPress theme?

I’ve spent a few hours tonight searching for the perfect theme. I’m starting to think that there’s no such thing as the perfect theme. I’ve downloaded a number of minimialist themes and this theme has attracted my attention. This theme is Barthelme 4.6.1 by Scott Allan Wallick.

It’ll be interesting to see how I feel about this theme in a few days.

Today was Remembrance Day here in Australia.

Yesterday, the Cenotaph in Martin Place (Sydney) was being prepared for today’s memorial service at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month (11:00am on 11th November).

Wikipedia has an article describing the tradition of Remembrance Day.

Yippee!

Today on Super User, one of my answers was chosen as the “accepted” answer.

Tonight, I upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.2.

As expected, the automatic upgrade occurred without error.

I don’t know, but the upgrade makes my Mac Mini seem a little bit snappier. Of course, my observation is purely subjective, but Eye TV seems to be running a bit more smoothly than it has in the past. Then again, I might just be imagining things.
