It's up and running. Huzzah! Smoothest upgrade ever.

N.B. STATUS UPDATED.

"Create a Ghostly Portrait of Someone Who Is Participating in ds106"
He roams the Scottish woods and casts glitchiness your way when you are not looking.
Started with the lovely photo taken by John Johnston

and my own photo of John when we walked together at Loch Katrine

In Photoshop I did some filters- maybe Chrome, Find Edges, then doubled the layer and used 2 different layer styles.
I then opened the forest image in BBEdit and just chnaged a few characters and it became a chromatic mess, so I took the whole glitch, overlaid it, and subtracted out similar colors and the left section on a jagged selection.
DON'T LOOK INTO HIS EYES!
This is a follow up photo from my 2008 photo here www.flickr.com/photos/wtl/2699091494/.

As you can now see, I now have an UpDesk, which I love.
Here's a quick gear tour;
Sony MDR-V150 headphones, Flex Mic, Two Dell 24" Ultrasharps, MacBook Pro, Mac Pro, Three x Thermaltake BlacX Duets, ScanSnap S1500 scanner, three Drobos (1x5 bay, 2x4 bay), and the FTTN modem.
There's a six-port power bar screwed into the back right of the desk to help deduce the number of cables that I'd have to zip-strap together.
Artwork includes box-fronts from F-15 Strike Eagle (1991), UFO: Enemy Unknown (1994), Frontier: Elite 2 (1993), a Cthulhu print, two prints by David Alexander Risk, and a Firefly cast piece by Katie Cook.
There are 22 powered-up hard drives in this photo. ;-)
Currently running 10.10.3, FCPX, Motion, Avid MC, Pixelmator, Transmit, Textmate & bbEdit.
Anyone who knows me knows that I am a life-long Apple fan, but even if you're not, you'd have a hard time denying the Mac operating system can handle multiple open programs at once with ease. When I first saw a glimpse of Mac OS X back in 2001, I knew the dock and I would become fast friends—and we did when my broke ass finally got around to upgrading to Jaguar in 2002. Some people set their docks to disappear and reappear automatically, but I could never do that. I like it in plain sight at all times.
On a daily basis, for approximately 8-10 hours, I have a minimum of eight programs running at the same time. Every day when I come in to work and log into my computer, I start up the following programs right away: Thunderbird, iChat, Firefox, Safari, iTunes, Tweetie (or Nambu) and Evernote.
On a daily basis (but not always right away), I also use Word, Preview, Skitch, Text Edit, BBEdit and iCal.
I use Fetch, Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Parallels (to check my web development in IE and FF on Windows) and Acrobat Professional on a more-than-weekly-but-not-always-daily basis.
The rest of the programs on the dock I use at least weekly.
There is a method to the way that these icons are organized in the dock, though I don't know that I could explain it in a way that would make sense to anyone who's not me. Let's just say that they are grouped partially by how often they are used and partially by the type of program they are.
So what about you—what's on your dock?
Icons from left to right: Finder, Dashboard, iChat, Thunderbird, Firefox, Safari, iTunes, Word, InDesign, Photoshop, Preview, Skitch, Tweetie, Evernote, BBEdit, Text Edit, iCal, Fetch, Dreamweaver, Parallels, Stickies, Extensis Suitcase, System Preferences, Activity Monitor, Adobe Acrobat Professional. Shortcut icons: iGoogle, downloads, pictures folder, my personal folder on one of our servers, trash.
I, along with my co-host Maggie McFee do a weekly podcast called "Ruining It For Everyone" at ruiningitforeveryone.tv . Each week we tackle some subject that is near and dear to our geek hearts. We've talked about fan-edits of the Star Wars Trilogy (original of course), Apple, Makerbots, CES, and visual effects/post production for video and film.
This week's show is about the new iBooks, and its impact in and out of K12/university education

The completely non-scientific experiment everyone tries.
This is a screenshot of my Dock showing running applications, and also Activity Monitor's CPU monitor window and memory usage chart.
The CPU monitor window shows 8 bars (this is a mid-2011 27" 3.4 GHz i7 quad-core iMac, with hyperthreading), of which four have a single mark visible at the bottom of the bar; i.e. only a handful of percentage activity on those cores.
Memory usage indicates 10.45 GB free, of 16 GB total RAM.
Running apps are: Finder, Safari, Twitter, Adium, Linkinus, Mail, Terminal, BBEdit, TextEdit, Preview, iCal, iTunes, App Store, Photoshop CS5, Illustrator CS5, Aperture, GarageBand, iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, Keynote, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Chrome, iMovie and of course Activity Monitor.
Does anybody understand this error message?
I just can't.
I just tried some buit-in scripts when no window is open.
If there were a hospice for 90s geek t-shirts, this one would be there now, living out its days in comfort and ease.
Screw it. I'm riding this one into the ground. Mad will just have to deal.
Previously in this space:
BBEdit bigwig Rich Siegel saw my lamentation on my old BBEdit shirt and sent me two non-pit-stained shirts and a bunch of stickers. Overnight. Damn.
These shirts have not only been cleared of the Pit Stain Fatwa, but they’ve received Madeline’s official okey-dokey. Which is nice.
Thanks a million, Rich.
In celebration of the just launched wolfenstein.com I've saved my color preferences as a BBcolors file and made it available for download. While working on Wolf, I used these colors to truly become immersed in the code.

Color scheme file is for use with Daring Fireballs BBedit (and TextWrangler) tool titled "BBcolors"

I like to keep it minimal.
I have my dock shrunk down as small as it will go, and take out all the items (apart from TextEdit and BBEdit) that are not running.
This is a screen shot of my Mac with 1001 running. (In the background is BBEdit with a passel of Flickr source documents I have been working on.)
