Some good stuff in this thread. I found this post by Mike Galbraith (patch author) explaining why it's needed especially interesting: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=128991621119292&w...

What sort of tasks? FWIW, I had a similar configuration to yours (just an older MBP) and installing an SSD helped immensely . I can hit 200% CPU load and not even realize it until the fans kick in…

That's great for now, but phone manufacturers seem to be trying to close down holes as fast as they can - see the Droid X and G2. (Not that people won't figure out ways around them, but if Android were truly open to users you wouldn't need

This looks like it might be very similar to something that's been bouncing around in my head for quite a while - I greatly look forward to trying it out! Any chance you'd consider working with the Mailplane[1] author to get it integrated?

I haven't been to the Computer History Museum (it's been years since I've been in the Bay area), but I did stop by the American Computer Museum in Bozeman, Montana once on a cross-country drive. For something literally stumbled across in a

Indeed. PDF is a great experience on OS X, and a decent one on iOS. (While its main UI is rather cluttered, I feel GoodReader does a better job with PDF than iBooks, solely for the margin cropping and table of contents support.)

FWIW, I think a majority of Mac users don't actually install Adobe Reader, since Preview handles them natively and fantastically for nearly all purposes.

I sincerely apologize for not getting back to you sooner, my week was a bit crazy towards the end of last week and I took a four day weekend this past week. My very, very initial impression is that it's an app I'm initially interested in, b

Slideshare also has an iPad viewer. EDIT: Also, blip.tv appears to work just fine.

I've had a similar transition here - I've pruned almost all high-volume blogs from my Google Reader, and focused more on people whose opinion I value very highly, Twitter, or social news sites (HN/Reddit/etc.) So far it's worked very well.

Wow, this is literally the first time I've ever heard of Dropbox actively losing data. Not that this is especially helpful, but were the files at least available inside the Dropbox web UI? For what it's worth, I've been using the 0.7x serie

Their customer service for Premier amounts to "only call us if we're down", and "e-mail us if you have problems administering your domain". For problems like "mailboxes are slow" or features being buggy, they direct you to the same Google H

E-mail support is only for "select administrative issues", and phone support is only for reporting "a service unusable issue caused by a Google server error"[1]. It doesn't sound like the GP's issue would fall into either of those categorie

If you're on a Mac and use Gmail/Google Apps, I'd recommend Mailplane - it's essentially an SSB tuned precisely to Gmail, and providing some interesting OS integration features. It also handles multiple accounts relatively well. http://mai

Froyo looks like a great update, but I'm not clear on why it's the game-changer/straw that breaks the iPhone's back that everybody seems to think it is. Is there something I'm missing here?

I thought this was particularly interesting: With regard to patents, VP8 copies way too much from H.264 for anyone sane to be comfortable with it, no matter whose word is behind the claim of being patent-free. Google isn't indemnifying th
