Eliminate Blind Spots
Posted in Ramblings on July 24th, 2009 by Richard YooHow to eliminate driving blind spots by readjusting your mirror:
For years, we’d been setting our side-view mirrors so that they gave us a view of the back corner of our cars. This is the way it’s been done for generations – from grandfather, to father, to us! But we finally discovered something very interesting. The back corner of the car never moves. It always stays in the same exact place. So there’s really no reason to keep an eye on it.
By moving the side mirrors farther out, you can line up all three of your mirrors so they have minimal overlap — and you can see everything behind you and beside you.

Veyron vs F1
Posted in Ramblings on July 5th, 2009 by Richard YooYou may know I’m a car nut… with that said, you may find it odd that I want to own neither of these cars… The F1 doesn’t have enough tech in it, and the Veyron I find boring despite its amazing stats. [shrug]
Regardless, this is a great video.

How to fix freezing Flash video
Posted in Ramblings on July 2nd, 2009 by Richard Yoo
I’ve been having issues with Flash videos (youtube, etc) freezing off and on for awhile… this only happens in Firefox (Internet Explorer works fine).
After doing some research, I found that this problem happens in all versions of firefox including the Linux version. The quick fix that seems to work is to disable Java by going to Tools -> Options -> Content -> Disable Java. This method appears to work.
Further research revealed that upgrade to the new Flash 10 engine should also fix the problem and you can leave Java enabled… so I tried this and it works!
Here’s the link to the new Flash 10 package: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
