FYI, i have used Aurora/DevEdition almost exclusively (outside of testing) on at least a dozen different Windows and OS X machines ever since the Aurora channel was created and i have never once had a serious problem. Occasionally i fi

How are you going to cite a study disproving the inherently subjective and hyperbolic definition of 'everywhere'? There is literally nothing in the universe that is 'everywhere'. Can you link an academic paper establishi

I agree with you. I work in software development and have followed Mozilla's bug tracker for over 5 years, and i STILL don't really understand how to use Bugzilla. On the dozen or two occasions that i've filed a ticket, proba

I was really really into the GameShark during the PSX days. The original one was nice, but the best thing was the GameShark Pro, which allowed you to (amongst other things) generate your own codes via a rudimentary hex editor/comparison too

I have always felt that this is an issue, as i have personally had many problems when interpreting road signage. For example, i once pissed off some builders by following a truck into their work zone (they were working on a highway lane). T

If you had simply decried the site's 'sexism' i would not have taken issue with your post. What you'd said was that it was an 'insane double standard'. The definition of a double-standard is 'the application of different sets of principles

In ~/.ssh/config there is a directive called LocalCommand that you can use to do an rsync (or anything else you want) just prior to making the connection. This way you can have it automatically update remote hosts with your shell scripts ea

Late to this, but... > these is no way to remap system wide either, you need to do it on a per app basis That isn't true. OS X actually has a very powerful and easy-to-use (but NOT easy-to-discover) method of controlling key bindings, a

This looks fairly promising, but it's not there yet. For example, try drawing a capital sigma ( Σ ); if you don't get your top and bottom bars perfectly parallel there's a strong chance you'll get gibberish back. Or try pi ( π or Π ); a 1°

Unrelated to anything but: Your terminal colours seem a bit brighter than the standard ones in Snow Leopard. Are Terminal's colour capabilities improved in Lion, or are you using that SIMBL plug-in, or...?

First of all i don't think Apple has done that bad with backwards-compatibility. The jump from OS 9 to OS X was extremely easy thanks to Classic and Carbon support, and then the jump from PPC to Intel was easy because of Rosetta. But admitt

My problems with VLC go beyond the interface, but its hideous UI is a major reason why i don't use it (i'm on OS X). I have seen many many people online try to work around this problem, at least aesthetically, by skinning or editing NIBs or
