True Geolocation Publishing Freaks People Out
It’s all well and good when it’s just you, your wife, and friends (real friends, not those 457 Facebook friends). But let me tap into people’s fears with this one: what if it’s an ex, The Hamburglar, or–gasp!–a Socialist?

My job requires that I know the region and format (PAL or NTSC) of a large collection of DVDs. Most come with the information, but there are a few that don’t, and a few with the wrong information altogether. Searching for a way to automatically determine this information yielded results for bypassing copy protection or region restrictions, but I wasn’t interested in that. I finally learned that OS X’s DVD player provides that info through the File -> Get Disc Info menu option (or Command
+i). The “Info” tab shows the format under the “Video” panel, and the “Regions” tab displays the disc’s region.

It was short notice, but M was sent to Japan for business and I was lucky enough to go along. No photos up yet, but I’m trying to squeeze some editing in when I have a little free time.

People want and can use your location data.

Seems a bit dated, but good for some basic information.
I certainly learned a few things by reading it.
