Fix for Google Music support in omPlayer

June 25, 2013

Support for Google Music in omPlayer has been fixed. Please reload GM page twice in omPlayer giving it some time between reloads to download updated script.

If that doesn’t work, you may need to close omPlayer, remove folder ~/Library/Caches/com.mifki.omplayer and try again. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Also, it seems that at least GM All Access now requires Flash being installed and enabled. If you see a message that you need to update Flash Player, go to omPlayer preferences, Advanced tab and check Enable Flash for Google Music.

Regarding recent WikiPlaces problems

February 28, 2013
Wikimapia.org is having problems with their API server (and seems with the website as well) once again, so WikiPlaces doesn’t show any places on the map. Please do not report this as a WikiPlaces bug in your reviews - I can not do anything. I hope Wikimapia.org team will fix this problem soon. UPD 28 Feb: Seems Wikimapia.org finished moving to new servers and so WikiPlaces app works again.

“Лиц ищущих работу”

December 19, 2011

Электродепо “Печатники” Московского Метрополитена приглашает “лиц ищущих работу” на обучение по профессии…

Да-да, именно так, “лиц ищущих работу” - в кавычках и без запятой. Ну как вообще должен работать мозг, чтобы рождать такой стыд? Кому в метрополитене поручают писать тексты, что они всегда настолько ужасны?

December 9, 2011
Finally I made an adapter to mount Sonnar 180 on Hasselblads with focal plane shutter. Focuses to infinity of course. Biometar 120 can be mounted too, not sure about wider lenses.

November 13, 2011
Ради интереса добавился в приложение для перевода интерфейса Фейсбука. Думаю, переведу что-нибудь на досуге. Поражает, какое количество туда добавляется откровенно “PROMPTовских” переводов. Зачем люди лезут что-то переводить, раз совершенно не понимают языка? И, кстати, хотя сам процесс технически организован неплохо, но хороший перевод таким образом сделать проблематично. Даются отдельные фразы, часто вырванные из контекста, нет возможности посмотреть, где как эта фраза реально используется, а главное, сложно узнать, как подобная фраза уже переведена в другом месте сайта.
