On some ads (Google?) you can click an X button to select a reason for not wanting to see that ad anymore. If I recall correctly one of the options is that you've already purchased that item. It actually worked in my case, but guess

I tried using the spacial feature of Nautilus, a file manager for Linux. What's your usage of a spatial file manager? I couldn't see it being beneficial to my file browsing in any way. Just curious.

I've never used OS X, but isn't it confusing for the windows to not have titles? To find the window you need, don't you need to look at it's contents - something that sounds clunky to me? It's one of the things I ha

Didn't know it's that popular, especially among "hackers". At work the Coca Cola crate gets empty faster than the Club Mate crate.
