My experience is that chrome works great with intranet addresses if you fully type them out. "gerrit.gps" searches for the string "gerrit.gps". I have to fully type out " http://gerrit.gps" to get to

I enjoy how readable tmux conf files are. My screenrc is barely legible without the manual open in another shell. I mean, I guess it doesn't matter too much once you've got it working. But I never open my tmux.conf and ask myself

I do expect a reboot to require somehow reloading my settings via xmodmap. More troubling is during an X session with Unity, my settings would be reverted, and I'd have to reload with xmodmap. Other desktop environments didn't hav

Last time I was using Ubuntu+Unity as my main desktop (11.xx), I used `xmodmap` to swap my keys, and found that every so often it'd be reverted. Have you experienced similar problems with this technique?

You're saying Kinkos was acting as a dumb copy service and was sued for copy right infringement. But your linked case explicitly says this is wrong. Rather, they lost because: Kinko's has periodically asserted that it acted
