For those of you who have been using Moji in previous versions of FireFox, but have been disappointed to find that it is unavailable in FF3, here’s a quick solution that worked for me.  The fix lies in the fact that FF now requires extensions to use ’secure updates.’  If you want Moji to work again (pending release of a new version), you’ll have to disable these.  Here’s how I did it:

1. Enter about:config in the address bar.
2. Add a new boolean option called extensions.checkUpdateSecurity and set it to false.
3. Restart FF and hope for the best.

Caveat Emptor: I am not responsible for you screwing up your FF config.  You break it, you buy it.

Not much to say this morning. Had a bit of a rough time sleeping.

Up next: Shower, food, Akihabara, Sensoji. If I can get myself back to Shibuya and Shinjuku, I still have more shopping to accomplish. My travelmates’ feet are gonna hate me.

Here’s my Flickr photoset of the previous day’s frivolity. Enjoy. (And please try not to break anything, OK?)

I’m going to shamelessly steal something from Einstein and contort it to serve my own self-aggrandizing purposes.  Since he’s dead, I don’t think he’ll mind.  Even if he weren’t dead… I think I could still kick his ass.

You see, the internets is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles.  This is how you get ones and zeros.  Squeeze/meow = one.  No squeeze/no meow = zero.  Do you understand this?   And WiFi operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat.

That is all.
