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

Adobe to release a thin-tipped, pressure-sensitive tablet stylus.

A couple of things to try to diagnose your Finder problem:

  • Create a new account on the machine and see if it happens when logged into that account.

  • Boot off an external drive and see if it happens then.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Has anyone installed iOS 7 yet? Or the new iTunes?

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

yes. I am running Ios 7 now on the iphone Some tech people have complained about ios 7 on the ipad, so I have not updated yet.

I haven't had time to really play with it yet, but I like the UI quite a bit.

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

Rob--it fails in the former case too, and for the latter, that requires a trip to the Apple store, because I don't have any external drive to boot from. And it will be tedious for them, but hey. APPLE CARE.

Anyone used Aqua Mail on Android? Is it worth paying for the full version? K9 didn't really work out for me, then I drifted back to the default, but I really would prefer one client for all addresses, and one widget--the native gmail widget can't display multiple addresses! The client itself looks tightly integrated, but one of the big reasons I'm in Android is the damned widgety functionality.

Aquamail has a "smart folder" that it lets you display in a widget, but the criteria for that are a bit blurry.

I had a recommendation of ArtFlow as an Android stylus application and I'm barely even started and I love it. I've barely started exploring, and it's been a lot of fun: [link] -- so much more to learn.
