   I am really interested in this too, however I could not find any indication of it in "man 5 resolver" :( You can do this with dnsmasq by using the --server option where you can pass individual upstream servers for different domain

   I've been on the Aurora channel for some time now and it's been a pretty smooth ride for me. You should give it a try to see how it works out for you.

   I don't remember when this has last happened to me. If this is the major reason, I, most definitely, prefer the current Firefox approach: much less memory utilization and the chance that I have to restart the browser once in a blue moo

    I do not consider Firefox inferior to Chrome because of this, instead I consider Firefox superior to Chrome for this very reason. With 6 tabs open, Chromium is using 1.6GB of RAM, while I can browse forever in Firefox until it reaches that

    Congrats to the Ajenti team! Been waiting for something like this for a long time. I hope it works as advertised. Is there a plan to monetize this tool?

    I don't think I would like a 30" iphone/ipad interface. Would you?

    I would downvote you if I could. I'm pretty tired of seeing snark like this and thinking how many people get discouraged of trying something new and bold for fear it would be met with an attitude like yours. Piss off.

    You don't get a full desktop OS (Mac OS X) when you dock the iPhone. I assume that's what you mean, your comment was a little unclear.

    Just yesterday I was wandering if GWT is still being maintained since I was evaluating it for a customer project. It seems to be stagnating, perhaps the devs need to focus on other things or have moved on. I don't get the impression th

    There may be sound reasons for them insisting on your signing an NDA or it just might be unfounded fear (especially if they are new in the business). I would not sign an NDA if it would cause me to become uneasy and lose sleep over it. One

    For certain videos in chromium I would get "This video is not currently available" in the flash player but the same url would work if opened in private browsing window. I fixed it by clearing the cache and cookies.

    I understand the need for indemnification, however the scope of elance's terms seems too broad (it covers even alleged infringement) -- which I, personally, find questionable. Do you have other freelancing sites to recommend, with, per
