I have Cooler Master Storm Rapid I mechanical backlit keyboard. It's pretty compact as it doesn't have numerical keyboard. It has nice light effects as it pretty configurable. I am not really impressed with this keyboard - I make

good news. I hope that new sync feature will work seamlessly and efficiently - I disabled sync about a year ago because browser became sluggish with large number of bookmarks.

but you could buy software once and use it for several years, skipping a few versions before upgrade. There are lots of users that don't need latest bells and whistles.

This might be workable for some people, I tried DDG and results aren't on the same level. DDG is getting better every day, until then my temporary solution is using "Google proxy" (anonymised Google search) like https:/

I have lots of websites hosted on S3 - you can have up to 100 buckets per account and every bucket can be a website. I use different setup - s3sync for syncing and AutoIt script for static blog generation (~100 lines of code).

it's useful to have extension if you want to disable it and temporarily see ads; also it's easy to whitelist ads on particular sites/pages - there are non intrusive and useful ads.

I hope Digg Reader will be simple and usable product, because there aren't many quality replacements for Google Reader. I have to say that I transitioned successfully from Reader to Gwene (RSS/Atom to Usenet News gateway) so I can

Firefox on Windows doesn't have this issue. You can fix this issue for classic Opera ( http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=437971&... ), but it seems that config manager for Opera Next doesn't work like old version (or mayb

Yup, this is currently the best and quickest way to fix problems with Firefox. If you set up sync, you can reset browser and reload context (extensions, settings, history, passwords, ...) in a few minutes.

I have experienced similar behavior with Firefox on Windows 7 recently. A lot of freezing and slowing down. Then I solved it by removing bookmarks from sync. I have a lot of bookmarks and it seems that syncing them is cause of freezing. If

I really like the idea behind this website, there are few interesting topics. One suggestion: in "Select viewport" section add number of upvotes for each viewport (so you don't have to click on every viewport to see number of upvotes).

Because it's easy? I have 100 static websites on S3. After initial setup of buckets, it's trivial to update/sync all of these sites using command line tool (I use S3 Sync) with one click on a batch file. And hosting on S3 is cheap.

Diet is the most important: cut out anything with flour and sugar in it. Exercise: skip endurance exercises - they waste muscle. Do some weight exercises 3 times a week, or chins/dips/pushups if you prefer bodyweight exercises. Keep workout

Eat natural fats - butter, coconut oil, animal fat (lard) and natural food with high fat content - bacon, eggs... You won't have energy ups-downs and you will feel strong and satisfied (drop sugar and flour).
