Quill is a web content editor, and Squire is an email editor. They are very similar, but slightly different - e.g. Squire supports quoting and changing quote levels, and knows how to handle attachments.

Yes, I saw their price rise - they warned about this a few weeks ago in their newsletter, and they blamed this on supply constraints on IPv4 addresses. The price rise did not effect existing VPSs, and will not effect those who go IPv6 only,

I've not had any issues, so I have no first-hand experience, but they seem pretty active on forums such as Whirlpool. In doing my research there were good reports of them on various hosting forums too.

The Australian equivalent of Digital Ocean, Binary Lane[1] has "BYO ISO" support for FreeBSD VMs - it is not in the list of easy installs, but there is detailed documentation[2] in their support area on how to install it, and they

Thanks for expanding on that - it is disappointing how Apple are releasing less and less with each iteration.

My understanding (which may be out of date) is that this is the complete OS but without the GUI layer - it is the kernel, init system, shell, and user-space CLI utilities. It does not include the GUI shell (Aqua), the GUI libraries (Framewo

Command line is definitely best for scriptability and repeatability. The thing I like about ImageOptim is that it runs multiple strategies (for PNG and JPEG at least) and picks the best one. Plus its ease of use for one-off compressions can

If you want a good list of command-line tools to do this sort of thing, have a look at the ImageOptim website ( http://imageoptim.com/ ), which lists all of the command-line tools it combines together.

The two clients I have used (Dropbox and Bittorrent Sync) work on a selective basis - you can download a file on an one-off basis, or keep selected files synced, rather than the whole repository.

I have a friend who says pluralising "octopus" as "octopi" shows ignorance of three languages - English, Latin, and Greek. "Octopus" is of Greek origin and the Greek plural is "octopodes". The Latin p

No it is not. It is a woman for a rolemodel, not a woman for my one and only and forever rolemodel. Having a woman for a rolemodel does not exclude also having a man as a rolemodel.

So why do you use screen rather than tmux for long running tasks, if you use tmux for everything else?

I think they meant that they neither found evidence that he was a lunatic, nor any guns (i.e. not only did he not have the mental state for carrying out a shooting, he did not even have the means). I think either in his speech or during edi

Nice - but don't you mean Atomic Number, not Atomic Mass? The atomic numbers (i.e. the count of protons in the nucleus) are the nice non-overlapping integers 1-118, whereas the masses are all over the shop, and has overlap with isotope

It looks fine in Firefox 24.0 on a Mac. I notice also that the back of the 'b' is broken and the dot is missing from the 'i' in your screenshot.
