Skien, project and iPhone
Friday, 18. September 2009, 21:00:05
We are in Skien for the weekend. The car trip here went amazingly well, and Elea slept almost the entire trip. The weather was nice, and even though the traffic was incredibly packed for the first hour and a half, it wasn't exhausting at all.
The past two days we have been doing the finalizing of a Human-Computer Interaction project we have at school. We were to go to a public office and analyse the queuing system. To be honest, I don't understand how the foreigners were able to use the system. It was localized in Norwegian, English and Polish. The English was incredibly poor, with words such as “queuenumber”, which I believe won't make any sense for one that has English as their mother tongue. By “queuenumber”, they meant the ticket with the given number. We gave them a jumbo grade in the end, but put it in quite a nice way. Let's hope the teacher agrees.
At Tuesday I noticed that my iPhone's outline didn't work. That is, I cannot listen through my headset. The treble and the bass is gone and all that's left is a garbled midtone that sounds like it lacks bit rate direly. I tried blowing hard in the outline opening, but it didn't help. Neither did hitting it or trying to twist the headphone. Anyone have suggestions? I have an insurance, but I don't know if it's applicable for this kind of damage. At worst case scenario I'll just have to find the hammer...

It actually worked when changing earphones. Weird, since I've experienced the same before using different earphones and the problem vanished blowing in the input. Well, easier than to get it changed at least
