anyone know how i can compress jpg's down to <100 kb?
imagoldfish:
In iPhoto, when you export, you can shrink it down somewhat in size, which sometimes will do the trick. Especially if you crop it first. Other than that, I dunno. I've asked this question, in the Mac group even, and received no reply. It's like, if you don't have Photoshop, we don't give a fuck.

i am not in a good mood today, and i dont know why. well, i kind of know why, but i dont really understand whats going on. all things considered, this is a good day to be in this kind of mood, bc i need to spend the day studying anyway, and i can effectively do that and avoid other people without them being suspicious...

rip ernst mayr.

i wonder if he say this one coming...

those of you who are not familiar with mayr's theory of emergence are likely to not understand this bitingly clever and breathlessly funny line. this is truly a shame. it is for you, then, that i include the following quote:

"new properties emerge at each higher level of organization that could not have been...

rip philip johnson.
dunx:
Yeah, totally, I trust doctors. Though I might make you give me lots of medical supplies in return. Like sutures and sterile instruments, not vicodin or shit.
imagoldfish:
Oh, so you'll do stuff to dunx, who is unwilling, and here i am practically begging you to poke around in my leg or whatever, so long as i can watch, and no, no.

goddamnit, my school fucking blows.

imagoldfish:
Ha! My professor got snowed in in Philly. No school for me either!
