I'm one of the people that does that. While I assume it's less efficient than using shift, once you get really used to it I would argue that there isn't a big difference, and that it's not as inefficient as you think. At

I use it primarily because quicken on mac is completely useless when you have multiple accounts with different currencies. They even list your totals wrong like "100 USD + 100 GBP = 200 EUR" last time I tried it. And there aren&#x

I'm from a European, but not an EU member country, and I got offered a senior software developer job in Germany. I applied for a 12 month work visa, even signed a statement that I will return when it expires, and it got denied. So yes

As far as I remember this is an opt-in feature for developers who host their projects on sourceforge that makes the installer offer additional software, by 3rd parties, to be installed. That additional software may be malicious.

Well they do have money, while they may not have members that possess the necessary knowledge I'm sure they could finance such attacks. That being said, they do not look to me like a group that would be using, and generally be interest

It's not everywhere, it has no video chat, and nobody uses it. If it somehow manages to "kill" anything it definitely won't be Skype.

I've had quite the opposite experience. Chrome will use significantly more memory for me. Unfortunately, everything else works better in chrome so I'm sticking with it for now. In the past I had same experience as you, however thi

That one seems to be targeted more at periodical backups than what dropbox does, which is more closer to syncing and backing up at the same time. Anyway, no I did not try it. From the website "It works with Amazon S3, Windows Live SkyD

I did, and then I reinstalled it when I saw that it's the only thing that works. Alternatives aren't as good as dropbox. Google drive is a close second, but without official linux client it's borderline useless to me - also t

I don't see how this is different and/or better than trakt.tv. And what the hell does "automatically track what you're watching" mean. 3rd party software? Like xbmc+trakt plugin? I also don't like how wherever
