Yeah that's the one.

I remember reading the original concept for the series in early 2003, describing their desire to communicate the feel of watching the action from hand-held cameras in the ships themselves. They really delivered on it.

I've seen all 13 eps now, so I'll have to wait a while to find out how the story continues... :/

Logitech F-Lock Key Eliminator [via]

UPDATE: the most reliable solution is to plug the keyboard into a USB port (after removing the PS/2 adapter), that should make the F-Lock key light up automatically after reboot.

1. posted by Milo at 13:45 on January 14, 2005

Sweet, now I no longer have to press the F-Lock key to activate the functions keys on my Logitech Multimedia keyboard.

2. posted by Milo at 14:44 on February 03, 2005

One limitation: the function keys still won't work in Explorer or Internet Explorer. Guess I'll still have to leave the F-Lock light on after all...

3. posted by Chad at 20:29 on September 22, 2005

Or you can just do what I did. In the iTouch configuration screen, simply map each key as "Transparent Pass-Through" The quickest way to do this from the config screen is just double-click the key, hit "T" then hit enter. It's fast than clicking the menu and "Transparent Pass-Through" is the first item in the list when you hit "T."

4. posted by Chad at 20:31 on September 22, 2005

Or you could always just map it to "keystroke" and hit the key. I think this is a more reliable method.

5. posted by Milo at 20:58 on September 22, 2005

Yeah but then I'd have to run iTouch... I'd much rather just press the F-Lock every day than run any branded driver overlay / tray hogger crapware.

6. posted by Chad at 22:15 on September 22, 2005

If you don't use iTouch, then download the fix at http://www.ben.pope.name/logitech.html
It basically flips the F-lock key values, so that the F-keys act normally when it's off and stupidly when it's on.

7. posted by Chad at 22:16 on September 22, 2005

Sadly, I like the media player control functionality provided by iTouch, so I'm still looking for a solution. The Pass-though and keystroke methods are both spotty at best, sometimes working, sometimes not.

8. posted by Chad at 22:25 on September 22, 2005

I just found the best fix for it. If you plug the keyboard into the USB port (remove the PS/2 adapter), it does as Logitech states in the FAQ and turns on the F-lock key by default :-)

9. posted by Milo at 23:04 on September 22, 2005

Wahey! It took a couple of reboots to kick in, but the USB port solution did the trick. How beautiful to see that F-Lock light turn on automatically at boot time. Thanks for your insightful comments, Chad.

By the way, my media control buttons function fine without iTouch (at least for any program where I can specify custom global keyboard shortcuts, such as Winamp or Foobar2000).

10. posted by Chad at 23:57 on September 22, 2005

I'm glad to help. Maybe you should add that to the top of this entry since this blog is the second result when you search google for "Logitech F-lock"

I hadn't thought about using global hotkeys. I used to have them with fb2k just because iTouch couldn't detect it, but perhaps it wouldn't be a bad thing to get rid of the old iTouch. I essentially only use Winamp for playback anyway.

11. posted by l_p_4_7 at 19:16 on September 30, 2005

I don't get it...my Logitech keyboard is already plugged into a usb port and the F-Lock key is off by default. Do I need to install a registry fix?

How exactly should this process be done?

16. posted by Ken at 17:27 on November 10, 2005

The Key Trick is awesome thanks guys!

Set each Function key to "Keystroke".
Set each Function key's keystroke by pressing its own function key. Change the name to a single space; this hides the onscreen notification when the function key is depressed.

I'm using in PS/2 mode and it works great!

17. posted by Ken at 17:29 on November 10, 2005

Followup to above post.

when you press the <Fn> key to set your keystorkes you MUST have the F-lock key on at that time.

@Chris: It's about trying to get a keyboard to work the way it should.

Followup to my above posts:
<Ctrl>+<Fn> key combinations do not work with Keystroke technique in:
• Outlook Express.
• Internet Explorer.
• Windows Explorer.

But follwing the 80/20 rule, Keystroke permits most normal Function Key operations, forcing you to only press F-lock to enable proper <Ctrl> + <Fn> sequence operation when required.

An option that works for me is taping they F-Lock key down. I know it sounds dumb but it works, as nothing else works for me. It may not work on your computer due to how many times your computer checks for a keyboard durring boot and the same for windows. To test this, just hold the button down and restart your computer. once windows is loaded, see if the lights on.

22. posted by Mandy at 03:08 on November 29, 2006

Okay so I'm not quite sure if this relevant to this topic but my keyboard isn't working, meaning like typing letters and numbers, and I think it has something to do with my F-Lock Key because there's a volume scroller on my keyboard but that works. And, for some strange and idiotic reason, there aren't any lights on my keyboard to tell whether my Num Lock's on, or Caps Lock's on so therefore, I don't know if my F-Lock key is on or off. Anyone know how to fix my problem whether using the F-Lock key or not?

How to display <ul> elements as a flat comma-separated list (now in effect in the main menu and links list in the left-hand column):
ul.links { list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; }
ul.links li { display: inline; }
ul.links li:after { content: ","; } 
ul.links li:last-child:after { content: ""; }

The advantage of this is that changing the default separator from a comma to | or - or whatever now means only having to change one character in the stylesheet.

Note: Internet Explorer doesn't support the css content attribute or :after and :last-child pseudo-classes, so the commas won't appear in IE.

1. posted by Low at 23:06 on January 12, 2005

This seems to be working in Firefox (that is to say, I just checked it with edit-css ^_^):

ul.links li:after { content: ","; }
ul.links li:last-child:after { content: ""; }

Now the commas aren't part of the hyperlink, which I prefer. :)

2. posted by Milo at 23:09 on January 12, 2005

Good point! That's what I was going for actually :)
I've updated the code sample (and my stylesheet).

3. posted by Low at 23:16 on January 12, 2005

I'd even consider using...

ul.links li:last-child:after { content: "."; }

...because of all the commas. I think it looks better with a full-stop at the end. But hey, that's just me.

4. posted by Anne at 08:02 on January 13, 2005

In that case you could even make it more fancy, work with ::before and add a & just before the end or 'and'.

5. posted by Milo at 09:02 on January 13, 2005

Hmm, I don't think either a '.' or an 'and' are fitting here, since this is not really a sentence, just a listing. I mean, "experiments and random", whazat??

6. posted by Milo at 11:17 on January 13, 2005

By the way Anne, to make your idea work, won't I need some sort of :second-to-last selector to prevent the comma appearing before the "and"? (note the 'Related categories' list, I just tried it there)

7. posted by Arve at 12:07 on January 13, 2005

ul.links li::before { content: ","; }
ul.links li:first-child:before { content: ""; }
ul.links li:last-child::before { content: " and "; }

Example output:

One, two, three and four

8. posted by Milo at 12:15 on January 13, 2005

I considered that, but it actually results in

One ,two ,three and four

which is not quite the same.

9. posted by Frenzie at 13:13 on January 13, 2005

It wouldn't appear as

One ,two

but as

One,two

which would be easy to solve by

content: ", "

10. posted by Milo at 13:58 on January 13, 2005

It'll always look like "One, two" or "One ,two" unless I remove all whitespace from between the <li>-elements (which I don't intend to do), or "white-space-collapse: discard;" was actually possible. http://fantasai.inkedblade.net/style/specs/css3-text/scratchpad

11. posted by Low at 14:04 on January 13, 2005

> unless I remove all whitespace

I was gonna say that; you beat me to it. Anyway, if you _would_ remove the whitespace or if the css3 rule would work, my vote would go out to:

ul.links li:before { content: ", "; }
ul.links li:first-child { text-transform: capitalize; }
ul.links li:first-child:before { content: ""; }
ul.links li:last-child:before { content: " and last but not least: "; }
ul.links li:last-child:after { content: "."; }

I was going for something like "ul.links li:first-child:first-letter { text-transform: uppercase; }", but that didn't work.

:)

12. posted by Milo at 14:12 on January 13, 2005

Strange, trying to make your last example work, I thought

ul.links li:first-child a:first-letter { text-transform: uppercase; }

*would* work, but it also doesn't.

I miss some characters. If I mark the working characters by * and the missing ones by /, I get :

* / / / * / * / * / * / / / / * * * * * * * * * / * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /

and

Hmm, that might be because I have some more asian character sets installed than you. Guess it's not so wise to depend on these to appear to all users, then.

Off-topic:
You just totally reminded me of http://www.iotic.com/ 's moiré animations... :)

I always click through all characters:

The Milo interface for easy browsing probably is punycode subdomains, e.g. http://xn--wkr.drunkmenworkhere.org/

One neat thing is the automatic Wikipedia definition lookup of certain words you type in a message window. Hover over a word with dotted underline and the definition appears in a tooltip.

I might give it a try, although I'm quite happy with Miranda IM lately.

I don't like it. I use two different MSN accounts, for work and for personal use. When you switch from one account to another, it automatically adds the contacts from the first to the second account... which I so painstakingly kept separated.
Ah well.

*barf*

Trillian... Miranda... MSN?! I'm sensing a decidedly Windows centric overtone here.

You guys ever heard of GAIM? http://gaim.sf.net

Also, the best anime series I saw in 2004:
  1. Planetes
  2. Last Exile
  3. Now And Then, Here And There
  4. Kino's Travels
  5. R.O.D. The TV
A lot easier to rank than the movies below, so this gets an <ol> instead of <ul>... ^_^

1. posted by jaga at 04:33 on January 03, 2005

Planetes is based on the manga by Yukimura Makoto, and it's available in English. I recommend you give it a try. If you like the anime, you will probably like the manga.

Very true, the manga is great. You can buy them from amazon.co.uk if you're interested. That's where iI bought them.

3. posted by Milo at 11:15 on January 04, 2005

I am indeed interested! Thanks guys.

I finally got to see R.O.D. the other day on Adult Swim. It has to be one of the better animes I've seen in a very long time, that and Abenobashi.

An attempt at listing my favourites of all the movies I saw in 2004 (not necessarily released in 2004), roughly ordered from really great to great:

Ummm...many Japanese movies entries..I've not seen them still...

2. posted by Milo at 11:27 on January 03, 2005

Yeah I still think you should see Bright Future (アカルイミライ), lots of 'palla-style' city scenes in there. :)

3. posted by Martijn at 17:18 on January 03, 2005

Is / will there be an international release of Simon? If so, this great movie can (soon) be enjoyed by many!

4. posted by Ruben at 23:08 on January 03, 2005

Wow, what an obscure list :-)

5. posted by Milo at 23:40 on January 03, 2005

Heh, I know... I hope you appreciate the hour I spent trying to find the most informative link for each of these movies.

I found myself making a big shift in my movie viewing habits this year, avoiding the latest Hollywood stuff and diving more and more into the rich world that is South-Korean and Japanese cinema, thanks to sites like http://koreanfilm.org/ and http://midnighteye.com/ .

green tea? ugh!

Thanks for distilling this cinema-segment I know so little about. Added them to my to-see-list.

8. posted by Brian at 10:07 on January 14, 2005

Yeah, I like that you include Korean and Japanese movies in your list, emphasis on Korean (gee, one could wonder why).
