I'm not a ST3 user, so I'm curious in which way it renders fonts differently than other applications (and on which platforms)? Emacs and Chromium are the applications that I spend most of my time at the computer in, and both of th

It uses the harddrive's motion sensor to figure out if the computer is being smacked on one side, and then switches to the next virtual screen in the opposite direction. (that's what I gathered from the video at least)

P2P adds some overhead and is already not used in our mobile apps and the webplayer which we serve fully from our servers. This only affects the desktop client and is basically a cleanup of unneeded functionality.

My accept-language header only has en_GB and en in it. Google still randomly serves me pages in Swedish and German (which are both languages I speak, but which I both explicitly disabled in my Google account settings). The best case of this
