I don't rock!

Tanya got me Guitar Hero III for wii for chrissie!

While I love playing it it goes to show that:
  • I'm monodextrous
  • I lack rhythm
  • I have zero hand-eye co-ordination
But none of that stops me playing until the world feels like its moving upward when I look away from the screen. (anyone who's ever played it for an hour or two will know what I mean)

Thunderbird Exchange IMAP Workaround

Just wanted to document somewhere the workaround for corrupted
attachments from Exchange IMAP servers.

Details are at:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92111

  • Go to Tools->Options or Edit->Preferences
  • Go to 'Advanced' Tab
  • Click 'Config Editor' button
  • Enter 'mail.server.server' as the filter
  • Browse through your servers until you find the one that is your Exchange
  • IMAP server. eg in my case it was 'server3'
  • Right-click in the table and add 'New->Boolean'
  • Enter the name mail.server.server<number>.fetch_by_chunks, and set it to
    'false' (eg i have mail.server.server3.fetch_by_chunks=false).

Done
