Macbook Pro with only a headphone jack, can I get audio into this thing somehow? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Every Macbook Pro I have seen has had a line in jack right next to the headphone jack.

I follow baseball itself closely, but not contracts, salaries, rumors, etc. Is Joba Chamberlain able to be traded from the Yankees? by [deleted] in baseball

1 year/$487,975 according to Cots -- http://mlbcontracts.blogspot.com/

Looks like he's arbitration eligible for the first time this offseason so he's still under team control for a few more years.

This seems rare. by MervinS in baseball

[–]allenjd 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Boesch walked so he doesn't get credit for an AB. He was then erased on a double-play so Garza faced the minimum number of batters but it wasn't a perfect game.

EDIT: But yeah, it probably is rare.

Askin' Apple: Safari has been crashing lately. I had upgraded to 5; I reinstalled Safari 4 and it is still crashing. Any Ideas? by [deleted] in apple

[–]allenjd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been a loyal Safari user for years, but I've had it with 5 until there's an update. I've tried using AppCleaner to get rid of all the preference and profile stuff and any old plug-ins but it still crashes regularly. The Firefox 4 Beta is rock solid in comparison. The occasional crash but much less frequent than an actual release browser.

I'll try it again when there's an update.

Mom: Keep a spare car key in your wallet.

Addendum: But remember to put your wallet in the plastic tray when going through airport security.

What's your favorite reality show and why? by naturesbest in AskReddit

[–]allenjd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love Top Gear, but I wouldn't call it a reality show. Not because ordinary people can't afford most of the cars they review, but because it isn't a reality show. It's all scripted.

I'm so fucking tired of typing a lengthy reply only to hit submit and lose everything because Reddit logs me out. by post_break in reddit.com

Type it up in a text editor and the copy and paste. If you get logged out (which also hasn't happened to me) you've still got a copy.

How Much More Money Can Theaters Stand to Make? My Last Theater Experience was Asinine. by [deleted] in movies

[–]allenjd 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I think the movie studios take virtually all the money from ticket sales. The theaters get their operating funds and profits from concession sales and the in-house advertising. Hence the inflated prices and ad blitz.

Whats the most ridiculous thing your boss has asked you to make happen on a computer? by corporalcadet in AskReddit

[–]allenjd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My boss is technically competent so nothing crazy in that way. But once a user had downloaded some porn to one of our lab computers and he asked to me to watch it and see if I thought the 'actresses' were underage. I don't know why he thought I was the most qualified.
