A: Sorry dude, that's a hardware problem.
A man walks into a bar with a haddock under his arm and asks "Do you sell fish cakes?".
"Sorry but no", comes the reply.
"That's a shame", says he, "It's his birthday".

Old joke but funny (and about the only clean one i know !)
A guy walks in to a bar, grabs a stool and orders a drink. He takes a few sips when suddenly he hears a small voice say "thats a nice shirt", he looks round but theres nobody sitting by him, so he thinks nothing of it and starts drinking again, a few minutes later he hears "oh what a great tie" again he turns but again there's no one about, the barman sees him looking about and asks "problem sir ?" the guy tells the barman he keeps hearing a voice, the barman smiles and says "don't worry mate its just the complimentary nuts"

How do I change a lightbulb?

You forgot the 6 that complain about the cost of changing a light bulb and want it done for free for them. And the 4 that tell the complainers "If you don't like the cost, then live in the dark."

...and the 287 that wait until the lightbulb has been changed and then ask when the next lightbulb will be fitted

Addicted...
You know you are addicted to the Internet when...
You kiss your girlfriend's home page.
Your bookmark takes 15 minutes to scroll from top to bottom.
Your eyeglasses have a web site burned in on them.
All your daydreaming is preoccupied with getting a faster connection to the net: 28.8...ISDN...cable modem...T1...T3.
And even your night dreams are in HTML.
You turn off your modem and get this awful empty feeling, like you just pulled the plug on a loved one.
You refer to going to the bathroom as downloading.
You start introducing yourself as "Jim at I-I-Net dot net dot au
Your heart races faster and beats irregularly each time you see a new WWW site address in print or on TV, even though you've never had heart problems before.
You step out of your room and realize that your parents have moved and you don't have a clue when it happened.
You turn on your intercom when leaving the room so you can hear if new e-mail arrives.
Your wife drapes a blond wig over your monitor to remind you of what she looks like.
All of your friends have an @ in their names.
When looking at a pageful of someone else's links, you notice all of them are already highlighted in purple.
Your dog has its own home page.
You can't call your mother...she doesn't have a modem.
You check your mail. It says "no new messages." So you check it again.
Your phone bill comes to your doorstep in a box.
You code your homework in HTML and give your instructor the URL.
You don't know the sex of three of your closest friends, because they have neutral nicknames and you never bothered to ask.
Your husband tells you he's had the beard for 2 months.
You wake up at 3 a.m. to go to the bathroom and stop and check your e-mail on the way back to bed.
You tell the kids they can't use the computer because "Daddy's got work to do" and you don't even have a job.
You buy a Captain Kirk chair with a built-in keyboard and mouse.
Your wife makes a new rule: "The computer cannot come to bed."
You get a tatoo that says "This body best viewed with Netscape 2.01 or higher."
You never have to deal with busy signals when calling your ISP...because you never log off.
The last girl you picked up was only a jpeg.
You ask a plumber how much it would cost to replace the chair in front of your computer with a toilet.
Your wife says communication is important in a marriage...so you buy another computer and install a second phone line so the two of you can chat.
As your car crashes through the guardrail on a mountain road, your first instinct is to search for the "back" button.

Then there's a good chance that you also have the following symptoms...
You can't sit through an entire movie without having at least one device on your body beep or buzz.
You think of the gadgets in your office as "friends", but you forget to send your father a birthday card.
In computer shops, you eavesdrop on a salesman talking with customers, butt in to correct him and spend 20 minutes answering the customers' questions, while the salesman stands by silently, nodding his head.
You back up your data every day.
On holiday, you read a computer manual and turn the pages faster than those who read John Grisham novels.
You go to trade shows and map out your path of the exhibit hall in advance. But you can't give someone directions to your house without looking up street names.
You would rather get more dots per inch than miles per gallon.
You are so knowledgeable about technology that you feel secure enough to say "I don't know" when someone asks you a technology question instead of feeling compelled to make something up.
You understand all these jokes.
If so, technology has taken over your life. We suggest you go lie under a tree and write a book.... and don't use a laptop!!
….I myself have a few of the above mentioned symptoms and it’s nothing to cause feelings of unworthiness, in fact I’m actually damn proud of it because that is what sets us apart from the human race, we’re part a breed with unique minds that surpasses those of normal beings and that makes our way of living much more advanced…. The end.

Tech Support...
The tech support problem dates back to long before the industrial revolution, when primitive tribesmen beat out a rhythm on drums to communicate:
This fire help. Me Groog
Me Lorto. Help. Fire not work.
You have flint and stone?
Ugh
You hit them together?
Ugh
What happen?
Fire not work.
Make spark?
No spark, no fire, me confused.
Fire work yesterday.
You change rock?
I change nothing
You sure?
Me make one change.
Stone hot so me soak in stream so stone not burn Lorto hand. Small change, shouldn't keep Lorto from make fire.
*Grabs club and goes to Lorto's cave*

Your thoughts on my short film

Hey guys, I would love to hear your opinions on my short film that i've made. This is my 2nd short film including my student short film from last year.
We spent about $300 for the whole short film, pre-production to completion. We didn't have much money to make the movie to begin with, so we went in and hoped for the best. The crew was very small too, but I guess we have to start somewhere
I encountered many problems, which you'd expect for such a low budget short film (especially actors), but I've learnt from those mistakes as I begin writing my next short film and hope for a much better output for the next one.
We got busted by the police for the traffic light scene with helicopters and all, but they were nice enough to let us go.
enjoy and let me know what you think

Sounds like you had some fun doing that! I would watch it, but I have to watch my download use for the rest of January... 10 days and we have used up 3/5 of our quota... and the movie file size is about 350mb I think it says, so tomorrow morning (off-peak ;D). Looks rather professional in the very first part!

It was very challenging, especially shooting the whole film guerrilla style with no permission from the council, but I guess that's half the fun

Well, firstly, you have a great camera-man! Those panning shots were smooth and I didn't see much if any shuddering etc. The focus is great, works especially well with the lights in the night, gives it some visual depth.
Music was soft and helpful for meaning in some scenes, and that keychain/locket was a good symbol for realising which car it was.
The actors weren't that bad in my opinion, way better than anything I could ever do Like others have said, it's more professional than I was expecting! The storyline was a bit confusing at times (or maybe it was me...) but I guess there's only so much you can fit into 16 minutes, so well done there.
Great job overall, keep up the good work! 'Liked' Maybe you should consider entering it somewhere, I'm not sure what's on in Sydney but it's worth a shot.
Just one thing though, why were you busted for the traffic light scene? Were you there for a while or something? I guess we only saw a tiny bit...

pur·ga·to·ry (pûrˈgə-tôrˌē, -tōrˌē)
noun pl. purgatories pur·ga·to·ries
A place or condition of suffering, expiation, or remorse: a purgatory of drug abuse.
purgatory; mental anguish or suffering
It's related to his past and the continued mental suffering he had every night. Especially the hallucinations caused by the pills he took to calm his anxiety attacks, which he didn't know were caused by the pills and was always stuck in this loop of events that haunted him, which is why the ending when Sandra's mother takes the pills from him, he is now able to deal with the past better because of the truth but also because the pills aren't there to bring back those hallucinations anymore to play with his mind again.

Haha, I would've loved to see that!!
The one other thing I have to mention about this movie was the fact that the main character didn't know how to drive a car properly, he was very very bad actually. 'Smoke and mirrors' made him look like a very good driver in the end.

We got busted by the cops because we had one car sit in the middle of the road high beaming the main characters car (when his face lights up as the other car speeds up towards him). This was around 11pm and the neighbours probably thought were doing something illegal like preparing for a drag race (we were beaming each other for 10 minutes) All of a sudden the ground illuminates and we look up and see a helicopter shining a light towards us, a minute later police arrive :\
The story was confusing at times but I made it so you essentially had to look back at even the subtle stuff he did, such as taking the pills then immediately after seeing the ghost car and girl to get a drift of the story.
To ease the confusion a bit for everyone, he was chasing himself. I left it open in one of the sections when Sandra reveals her name. In the story the character say's he doesn't know her however if the pills were causing only hallucinations, then how does he know he name. I left this part open for the audience to think for themselves. Did he know her name because of her death being mentioned at school but had completely forgotten about her until that night when he finally chases his own car and meets the girl or was she really a ghost who came down to tell him the truth about her actions.
The story was too complex for a short film but I think it was only after seeing so many simple linear short films that I wanted to take a different approach.
About entering it into festivals. I'm worried that the film isn't "good enough" yet to be shown at film festivals because of the small problems here and there. I'm trying to create a short film that really stands out at the film festivals and I personally don't believe this film is there yet.
Glad you liked it

Yeah I noticed that, but I couldn't do anything about it because by the time the other car turns left, it doesn't leave much room to fit in that shot and to give it the same kind of impact. I wanted to cut on the action of the main character turning left to the motion of the car but unfortunately the street lights caused a shadow. In the end, it was a very small problem that I couldn't to cut out because the content of the material was more important than the shadow appearing.

I thought the pills may have had something to do with it! But I was still tired when I was watching it, so it didn't click then But when you say it like that, it does fall into place, so maybe it's a better plot than I thought

Believe it or not, that single traffic light scene was the hardest part of the whole film. We were running against the time especially having to deal with a public road and waiting for the road to clear on both sides for the other car to drive straight through... oh my goodness, what a nightmare hehe.

Thanks hehe, yeah the plot appears to jump here and there but hopefully if the viewers pay attention to the small stuff that happen, then maybe the bigger picture makes more sense.

What things you see that make you think Android?

This semi doesn't compliy with the rules of this section....because it somewhat is phone related (however does not fit any of the other sub forums?)
Ok, well a bit of background. I am a Cartographer and Web mapping developer (geographic information systems analyst) and I couldn't help but notice something I was doing today that kept reminding me of Android.
Attached is a screenshot of a scanned map of an area within the Gold Coast Planning Scheme which I have been making amendments to recently…it's not hard to tell why it makes someone (like me and maybe like you?) think "OMG android has taken over the city!" haha not really, but I certainly see the resemblances that’s for sure!
By the way this area is actually the precint area for a very reputable (around the world) university, Bond University.
As a side note it has me wondering if there was some "foolery" going on by one of the urban planners?
I can attach another aerial planning scheme screen shot that is ummm…."not so appropriate" that supports why I would suspect foolery (as its not the first time this kind of funny business has occurred) however I think this is not the time or the place and would take away from the rules that I am about to impose on this thread
So…here is a whacky thread for geeks like me to post pics up of things that aren't android related that make you think android.
Rules: Has to be pics, and no stories unless accompanied by a pic to support your story.
Does not have to be a pic of an android alien just a pic of something that instantly makes you (or others) think android!
For instance it could be an ice cream sandwich or gingerbread man or something (btw what the hell does a froyo look like? We either don't have them in Australia or I have never eaten one or they are called something else here lol)…and I know what a cupcake looks likes too, I am not supid hehe. It doesn't have to be a pic of any thing mentioned so far in particular, just anything that makes you think android.
Alright go! Pics only and/or response to pics (so long as it is not a personal story with no accompanying picture).

Froyo=frozen yogurt=ice cream
No pics for now, but yours is awesome.
Every time I hear an android device name it makes me think of the phone. This includes words like incredible

@Archer bahahaha watched it lastnight! Heard it and thought it. Good work on the pic
@mtmerrick thanks for the update. And thanks to you also; I am going to look at the tub of my frozen yoghurt (that i eat every day) in a totally different way lol.

jaszek, Image Hosted by Tripod? ok haha
Either your service is out of bandwidth or you ARE actually suggesting Tripod reminds you of Android? hmmm

Weird. The image shows for me. And I just found it online. I don't keep a stash of pictures on my computer to post online.

Aurora Borealis Time Lapse - The song of the Sun

So, when I am not tinkering with my Note, I shoot pictures. A year back, I got into Time Lapses. And then a month back I shot the Aurora. To do justice to this time lapse, I figured I had to go with the non linear editing flow, so with help from videohelp forums, I learnt some Aegisub and Avisynth. And this is the end result.
Hope you like it! Watch in 1080P. I wish I had a laptop which could handle 4K. That would have been lovely. But 1080p is what I have to manage.

That's really beautiful man. Stunning actually! Where in Norway were you and what equipment were you using?

I was in North Norway Troms area (Locations mentioned in Video title credits)
For Aurora Chasing we drove to Finland (Kilpisjarvi).
The star trails sequence is from west norway(Luster)
ITs shot with a D7000 and Tokina 11-16 F2.8

You've done a great job. Do you have any ideas for your next project yet?
I often browse Vimeo looking for great timelapse photography. Do you have a channel there?

Nope, only youtube channel (tsk1979).
I have made some cloud scapes earlier.
Just recently got into time lapses.
My next project(if I get clear skies in the mountains) will be stars, where I will mark all the constellations as the stars rotate around the north.

Going up into the mountains would be great. Not only can you get clear sky action looking up, but if you're high enough, on the right day you can also get great footage of the clouds rolling in like a tide below you!

Hello

First a bit about why I am here.
I have a specific problem with my phone - Moto G10 (which I will search for and perhaps make a post).
I hope I will also be able to help others but I have been very complacent with regard to how things work these days (I last had a good rummage around software a good 10 years ago) so may not be of much use.
Second I shall explain my user name SatansMother (tldnr - he was our cat).
Many years ago, we adopted a beautiful black cat around Halloween and were searching for an appropriate name. We didn't want anything too obvious and thought a Halloween themed name would be more appropriate. My daughter suggested Satan and it seemed so right. He was a gorgeous, loving cat who not only tolerated, but actually liked our rescue dog too! Then, I was signing up to a music forum and wanted a name that suggested my great age - so I wanted something with mum or mother to show I had children. That's when I realized that SatansMother was sufficiently rock and roll to fit into the music forum and so SatansMother was born!! (I know there should be an apostrophe in the name, but it was not allowed in the user name at that time.)
I look forward to seeing you on the boards

Welcome to XDA
My one cat is nicknamed Devilcat
More what the other cats think though as he will charge then leap over them never touching them (or they him). They're like WTF?

Haha! What are they like?! He sounds brilliant!
Our current cat, Genghis, I'm sure is part cat part elephant. We keep our bedroom window open all night and he comes in at very unsavoury hours and deliberately lands very heavily on my husband before landing very heavily on me! I think of the Thundercats theme tune every time he comes down the stairs.

Welcome to XDA!
I enjoyed the backstry behind your username.

Thank you for the welcome (and of course the welcome from blackhawk above)
Glad you liked the back story - you caught me in writing mode today.

He's pretty funny. Fast and light on his feet. He'll run by and leave out a reowl.
The two other cats are brawlers but Devilcat never bites or scratches, but gets them with the quickness. He'll chase after bouncing superballs too.
He was abandoned as a very small kitten and he bonded to me. Those make for the coolest pets.

Oh now I'm jealous! I bought our Genghis a couple of bouncy balls and he just watches them, then looks at me as if to say "why did you throw that away?"

He's sort grown out of that but he would go after a dodge ball too. Ping pong balls were the rage for a bit.
Then insects. There are no mice here... now.
The one older cat, Lucy, who is jealous actually forgot her dignity with age and started emulating his toy behavior. Guess you can teach old cats new tricks. Now it's Lucy that plays with the toys... my disfunction cats.
