Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm mostly following the keynote via John Scalzi's Twitter feed, and it's hilarious.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Does anyone know of webmail hosting services? If I have a domain that I'd like to just use email on and provide email addresses to other people, is there anything optimised for that? Or would it just be the lowest traditional tier of hosting and introduce people to the joys of SquirrelMail or Round Cube or whatever?

It means I don't have to pay an extra $40.00 for 1Password on OS X and iOS.

I have never considered that, due to ignorance on my part. Let me go read up on it. Could be perfect!

ita,

if you have questions that I can answer (some of your questions are so far above my head I think I'd need to call a sherpa), I'm happy to. I don't still use it because I no longer need it, but it worked really well for me for the 1-2 years I did.

iTunes: keeps crashing on me/becomes unresponsive about every two days or so. Is this a deliberate bug because I refuse the updates to it or to my iPhone whenever I charge via laptop? (Because, seriously, the updates are ridiculous).

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

you need to update itunes if your machine can handle it. it is a PITA, but you should do it.

same with your iphone. You can do updates OTA with the phone.
