Why is there a licence agreement for the daylight saving time update in OS X?! (Don't even get me started on the DST fuckery. You think my feminist is made of fiery rage?! Just start fucking with my morning sunshine, and you'll see a whole new world of fiery rage! >_<)

I just watched Perhaps Love. It was beautifully shot, reminiscent for the glory days of the Hollywood musical. (In the tradition of those glory days, the plot was less of a consideration than music and cinematography. Two good men, both in love with one poisonous woman. Ah well, suspension of disbelief — I find it a lot easier when it's loudly sung and in a foreign tongue.) Oh good, now I've got that stuck in my head. *cry*

It's nice to know that although my inner feminist has grown fierce and fiery, the romantique in me isn't entirely quashed.

(In other news, I'm having a problem with mplayer - at various points, it stops playing and says something about unexpected end of file (yes I know, I should write down the error message). At first, I thought it was something wrong with the files rejoined by hjsplit, but then it happened with files that were downloaded all in one piece. Anyone?)

You should be happy that a license agreement is all you have to consider for the new DST.

Every time I've got an unexpected end of file in mplayer, it's been just that--the file was incomplete or badly corrupt.

I'm sorry - I missed something: when I go back & re-open the file (mplayer stays open), it plays fine. *grumble* It also plays fine in VLC, which unfortunately doesn't handle softsubs as nicely as mplayer.
