I don't understand the desire or the utility in creating two terms for the same type of relationship, in both the functional and the legal sense, on the basis of the genders involved in the relationship. The only use I can think of is that it woul…

I've watched my brother-in-law hold his breath for 5 minutes. Everyone in the room was screaming at him to stop holding his breath, because he started to turn blue. It was actually quite freaky to watch. I'm pretty good at video games. When My…

Just for curiousity sake, for those of you that are so upset over Janet's bare breast being shown during the halftime show, what do you think the rational is behind it being OK for men to walk around bare chested, but inappropriate when a woman flas…

Mac OS X caches everything it can in RAM so it inevitably uses most of your RAM. This improves performance when Mac OS X can just use the RAM cache to grab data instead of accessing the hard disk which is a lot slower than RAM. I have 1.25 GB …

Are you talking about Panther? I suppose you are. The trash isn't on the desktop for any of my Panther installs, perhaps you have done something with a haxie to make the trash appear on the desktop. Best of luck.

I was hoping that it would have been released for Canada today, as well. Oh well, I guess we have some more waiting to do. I just really wish they would hurry up, or at least give us some info about when they expect to have it in Canada, if at all.

Wow! Luckily I have never had to do this on a regular basis, so I haven't noticed this problem myself. But I just did a similar test with moving 315 PDFs from one folder to another and it took about 20-30 seconds. The weird thing is the Finde…

When you get these slow speeds does it matter if you are connecting from 9 to X, or from X to 9. Traditionally I have found that OS 9 sucks for file-serving and can be "slow". Where as OS X is speedy at file-serving, and just as much so when you a…

That's right. The same rendering engine as in Safari. Maccentral says that, "OmniWeb 4.5 is planned as a free upgrade for OmniWeb 4.x owners, and should be available later this quarter, according to The Omni Group." If OW 4.5 is based on Safa…
