Re: TinyGrab 2.0: The Road Ahead

Sounds great! However, do users who've paid for v1.0 also have to pay for v2.0 again? Some software companies tend to re-charge people (Yes, I'm also looking at you Apple) with every mayor update.

Re: Facebook’s Major Redesign Emphasizes Search and So Much More

The new layout is horrible. The hover action on the icons works like shit, the shortcuts are no longer "shortcuts" (as they take extra time to find) and the layout isn't aligned properly.

I can haz youtube ?

Anyways, I agree. A lot of blogs that are related to inspiration (or whatever they're doing) tend to use the list-way of blogging. "10 Awesome....", "Amazing....". Instead of articles that actually matter.

Not so sure about the preview of the new design, the current one is much better :)

Re: Apple Is The Best And Microsoft Sucks

Apple won't sue you for running Mac on a windows based computer. They can, but they won't since it's not worth it.

Hm....Can't edit it :|

I actually wrote the article :] And thanks for the comment, completely missed it.

That's probably one of the advantages of working as a freelancer, you don't have to deal with shit like this :)

Re: Winning In A Competitively Staffed IT Environment

Kinda reminds me of a project I had to do for my computer science exam. I ended up making about 90% of the entire system, though this wasn't because I didn't want to work as a team, the others just didn't do anything :|

Re: Dying For A Job?

Many people forget that moving their butt is more important than being skinny and eating fat free food. Another thing that also worries me is the way people live these days, they don't even bother going out.

"Why should I, I have Google Earth !".

First comment when I read his article ? "WTF!?!?" Sure there's a reason for it, but the reason is very, very stupid :|

Re: $1 Blank CD Could Lead To 10-year Prison Term

Absolutely ridiculous that the punishment of stealing a CD is higher than selling private information. Wonder how stupid the judges are...

Re: Why I Don’t Buy An i

YorickPeterse — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 05:28:41 -0000

My dad used to have a Mac, which I've been using since about 2000. So yes, Leopard is the only Apple thing I ever brought home.

And about that on Smashing magazine, I just found the article was dumb. Switching back to a certain OS because of an text editor or Rocketdock is a joke.

You'd better put on your flame suit :P
Anyways, I agree with you. The only 'Apple' thing I ever brought home was Mac OS X leopard, hackintosh that is. Still, I'm actually preparing to install Mint, but that's a different story.

I've seen a lot of friends showing off with their iPhone, thinking they're awesome now they've experienced Apple.

"Apple is so awesome, YEAH !"

Common things you'll hear. There was a day nobody knew about Apple, other than those who used it (I've been using it since I could poop), but these days youre considered an outcast if you aren't a Mac fanboy.

Re: Dear Safari…

YorickPeterse — Sun, 07 Jun 2009 07:01:27 -0000

No, I gave up on Safari all together, not only was their tab behaviour weird, it also didn't support a feature to block adds (unless you used a plugin).

Re: HOWTO Install Cherokee, MySQL, PHP and WordPress on Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope

YorickPeterse — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 19:25:33 -0000

Great! I was looking for a way to install Cherokee on Ubuntu server using Parallels (and soon perhaps my own server) but it didn't make that much sense to me. Atleast this tutorial gives me the proper commands :P

Haha, yes. Simply breathing in and out is a great way to relax yourself :)

Re: Birth of the Mobile Brats

YorickPeterse — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 11:54:24 -0000

Luckily I'm not that addicted to my mobile phone, I just don't need all the nifty features. The thing you can do while waiting is simply breathing in and out slowly, a bit like yoga :)

Re: Cherokee Web Server To The Rescue!

I probably will in a week or so, first need to find myself a cheap and decent machine that I can use as a server.

Hm..Interesting. I took a look at their site and the benchmark results are pretty interesting.
