Using the built-in iSight in my MacBook, some insomnia, one of Stffn’s socks (that he forgot last he visited), some spare time, a little patience and iMovie – I managed to make a video for Deteriocrat. It’s nothing big or fancy — in fact, it’s not even good, really… And here it is!
(Update (11:27): Now also on Google Videos, should you prefer that over YouTube.)
I just saw an article on politiken.dk (a Danish newspaper) about a Valentine’s Day virus [da] apparently circulating. That, in itself, is nothing new — nor even unexpected, but along with the article they showed a picture of an old 12″ iBook. I guess the writers/editors just didn’t really think it all through, but the virus doesn’t run on OS X, but people will subconsciously make an association between a virus warning and the white Mac. And as a brand spanking new Mac-user, I’m against that.
I know it’s just a little thing and that it probably doesn’t really matter, but I do, none the less, think it’s a bit inconsiderate of Politiken.
Update (Sun, Feb. 18, 2007 15:49): As I said in the comments I actually mailed the author to mention it (not to whine or bitch about it) and today she sent me a nice and friendly reply and told me she wasn’t aware and that she’d try to keep such things in mind in the future. Apparently she’d had the same reaction from a lot of other readers. I guess the proper heading for this entry should have been Accidental FUD. Anyhow, it’s nice to know that you’re being taken seriously even though it was really just a silly little thing. :)
