Behold, here comes the iPhone app all retards have been waiting for:
Actually, i think it’s kinda funny, although i guess some people won’t get the joke.
Edit:
Oh and by the way, it seems, you’re never alone as the iPhone keeps iphoning ihome.
ipuke, iguess.
Once again, a quick reminder for myself: Howto display the internet traffic on your Sony Ericsson C702:
Menü, #, 4th Tab, 5
(On a german phone: “Einstellungen / Anrufe / Zeit und Kosten”)
I guess that works with other SEs like K800i and K850i.
I remember an old SE that i had which always displayed the traffic after ending an internet session, i wonder why they changed it.
This post is an update to Make Gimp.app usable on a mac:
The “Click through” property on both Apples X11 and the X11 provided by XQuartz is not set. This leads to the fact, that you have to click on each X11 window twice: First activating it, 2nd pushing a button or whatever else. I hate this, i really do.
With Apples X11, open a terminal and enter:
defaults write com.apple.X11 wm_click_through -bool true |
With XQuartz X11 enter:
defaults write org.x.X11 wm_click_through -bool true |
This will help you with all X11 apps, like Gimp, Inkscape, Open Office and the likes.
This post over there at TUAW.com boils down to one thing: Turn your expensive phony toy off to save battery. Yeah, that’s great!
The way i organize my data has changed a lot over the last years.
Way back in the last millennium i had folders for everything. A folder within a folder within folders. And somewhere buried deep within that, my applications, music, pictures, email and whatnot.
Although Apple does the best a company can going from great to suck, it’s their OS and applications that changed my mind a lot.
I refuse to browse my music by folders. I like it by artist, album or some other arbitrary tag. The same and more for my email. I was used to have a folder structure
Spotlight was the first desktop search i used and after it was stable and performed well after the first view release, it is great. I roughly “arrange” data by themes (i.e. images, programming, music) and put programs in one big directory and i’m done. Oh, remembering my old Windows 95 box with a folder “dos_app” for well… DOS programs and games and a second “win_app” for gui thingies… Hell!
I certainly heard about Windows Future Storage a.k.a. WinFS back in 2003, a relational filesystem by Microsoft which should have been available in Vista but has never made it that far. Today, i read somewhat more and I’m really putting my head against the wall. This thing could have been huge! It’s pity that the problems releasing Vista must have been that big that they (Microsoft) cut their plans of an intelligent file system once again.
After all that Java and Ruby stuff here, i am a database guy, i like the maths behind relations and the power within. Furthermore, this video called IWish Concept Video must be one of the few cool ad videos Microsoft has ever made. Great stuff and i think absolutely possible with all the great ideas in WinFS.
