I think this will add another feather in the hat of Apple Safari success. This feature works great for the browsers. Go Apple

To answer my own question:

It’s “has_many_friends” and not “has_many :friends”

Doh!

I get “uninitialized constant User::Friend” when I try @user.friends

What am I doing wrong?

Hey,

I dont know how it happened to only me but when I request_friendship_with a user, it adds two rows to the database and then it gives 500 Internal Server Error.

In the development log I see that rails goes into a infinite loop then mysel breaks up the connection. the infinite loop is: [4;36;1mUser Load (0.004551)[0m [0;1mSELECT * FROM `users` WHERE (`users`.`id` = 3) [0m [4;35;1mUser Load (0.004514)[0m [0mSELECT * FROM `users` WHERE (`users`.`id` = 3) [0m [4;36;1mUser Load (0.004434)[0m [0;1mSELECT * FROM `users` WHERE (`users`.`id` = 3) [0m [4;35;1mUser Load (0.004719)[0m [0mSELECT * FROM `users` WHERE (`users`.`id` = 3) [0m ..

then, Mysql::Error: Lost connection to MySQL server during query: SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE (`users`.`id` = 3) [0m /!\ FAILSAFE /!\ Sat May 31 17:40:55 +0300 2008 Status: 500 Internal Server Error

I dont know the reason but I use rails 2.0.2 thanks!

You can enter first person of another player (and yourself) as long as they played on your console. Otherwise you can only view third person. It doesn’t matter if its on XboxLIVE or system link. Just FYI.

And if you ever read the Weekly Updates on Bungie.net, you would know why the melee system is still flawed. I think that it is a lot more fair, in terms of catering to the public as a whole and not the relative few who don’t like it at all. You just can’t please everyone.

swapnil,

If you use the generator (as described in the readme), it creates the model for you. All you do the is add the has_many_friends to the User.rb file and you’re sorted.

Brilliant plugin – was just about to write all this and happened to stumble upon it. Saved me hours, cheers!

I searched for weeks, posted to the RSPEC list and could not solve this problem at all. Thanks so much for fixing this annoying problem!

Comment on 'My Personal AT&T U-Verse Review' by not a fan of Uverse

2008-05-09T02:03:45Z

I am not very impressed with Uverse at all. At first, I was having issues with Comcast. My cable and internet seems to go down a lot last month. Then the next thing I remember, it was completely out. Then I noticed this weird looking grey box on my neighbor’s property. It looked like an AC unit, but it was marked with an ATT logo.

Last week, I decided to cut my cable and go with ATT Uverse. They installed my service the next day. The installation for 3 services took 8 hours to complete, and I had to take a full day off from work.

The internet was fine. I wasn’t surprised with the speed because it’s almost the same as Comcast internet. The digital tv service from Uverse was not that great at all. The HD channels and regular cable were fuzzy and sometime cutting in and out. I called ATT to send someone over the next day to fix this issue and they told me that no one will be able to fix it until 2 weeks later.

This was not what I had expected from Uverse. I asked my neighbor who also had Uverse if they had issues with their high definition channel. They too were also having issues with the picture quality. It was basically a joke compared to Comcast’s HD channels.

I called Comcast to reconnect my service and the rep was very helpful. She told me that all she had to do was restart my service with no extra fees. I don’t know how they did it so quick but my cable was on right away and it wasn’t Uverse. The rep also told me that they were experiencing outages in my area because of the unsightly ATT box. I guess this Uverse box was disrupting my cable service. Ugh! What a disaster.

I called ATT and told them to pick up the box they left here and they told me that I have to mail it. My experience with Uverse was infuriating. They false advertise that it’s better than cable. It’s a total BS. Never going to use ATT again ever!

@macuser. Hah. Ya. Luckily they were smart enough to keep Windows XP has the OS. I didn’t see any OSX on the commercial. So these people were dual booting their macs into a Windows XP system that keeps crashing and runs slow just to check their email. You’d think they would just use OSX for that. Silly people.

I just recently saw that commercial, they seem to be airing it mostly on ESPN. The most troubling thing that I found with the commercial besides the Macs having viruses and spyware would be when the mac user gets a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death). I went to their website to check what they had for mac users, only to find a cheap alternative to the built in system preferences. HA.

Hey Steve

Are you planning on making a release of the skittlish theme for trac 0.11? That would be really cool :)?
