split nose to navel!
Well, seems all it does is split a bit down the length as the frozen bits expand. A frozen egg, it is worth noting, is rock fucking solid!
I left it to defrost for a bit then cracked it. The white was back to normal, but it seems the yolk and that weird thingy stuck to it take longer to thaw, as they was still frozen. After another hour the yolk was no longer frozen, but about the consistency it goes when it’s hard-boiled. Why the fuck is that, anybody?
These days I’m mostly camped out in the kitchen, scanning the horizon for the delivery guy who will sure bring my new phone. I’m actually obsessing a bit over it, and have been reading up on what it can do (which I really should have done before I decided to get it, but hey).
It seems the handsfree kit is easily modified to accept any standard headphones. And, despite Windows’ problems, a K750i will happily mount its memory stick on your Mac over USB, allowing one to drag and drop files and even playlists onto it straight from iTunes (in theory). All it needs now is for the music player’s UI not to suck massive, sweaty donkey balls (though I fear it will) and I’m one memory-stick-purchase away from retiring my iPod.
Also, there’s a free Salling Clicker lite kind of thingy here that makes use of the phone’s odd-yet-welcome bluetooth HID profile. Neat!
OK, it seems that Salling “remote basics” is simply a bunch of HID templates for the phone that use the Mac’s built-in (since 10.3.5) bluetooth HID profiles.
See, the templates tell the phone which keyboard command to send for a given press of its own keypad. They also include a graphic for the phone’s display which lets you know which buttons are doing what.
So, basically, it’s nothing at all compared to Salling Clicker. Of course, it doesn’t require a 3rd party helper app running on your mac (I’m always deeply suspicious of those) and is totally free. Also, Clicker doesn’t seem to support the K750 yet, so it’s all I got
So what’s tomorrow’s experiment? What happens if I put an egg in the oven?
It hatches and flies away. Durrrr.
but I’d be stuck in the oven so just turn into dinner…
You’re stuck in the oven? Sam, quick!
Shit. I should really check these comments more often! Now I have to clean the damn oven out.
