I have to disagree with the Calendar part. Having exactly the same problem with it, endless login loop and no Calendar sync. The Mail app I don't even use anymore as it's absolutely shameful how bad it is by anyone's standards, let alone Apple's.

Too busy. A single one of those white circles on a deep blue background would be more than enough.

"“Another one was 30 muscle-ups. And if you can’t do muscle-ups, do 120 pull-ups and 120 dips. It’s just random; it makes no sense"

Did you read the documentation? It makes sense, it's generally prescribed that a muscle-up on olympic rings can be substituted by 4 pullups and 4 dips. So, if you can't do 30 muscle-ups, do 120 pull-ups and 120 dips. Makes perfect sense... if you take the time to read the documentation, the journal, the forums and so on.

Being informed goes a long way for making your article writing more credible.

BTW, the experience of reading tiny text over an orange background is quite an unpleasant one. Just saying.

Certo. Claro que a boca da Bimby é de graça, até me parecia mal não a fazer.

Passei a tarde inteira a fazer channa masala. Sem Bimby, claro. Levo para almoçar amanhã, se quiseres provar, considera-te convidado.

This is the stuff legendary #fails are made of. If WinPhone fails to sell, this is going to be ever remembered as the utterly ridiculous show it actually was.

Esta é provavelmente a feature mais killer do Meo este ano. Eu puxava por isto na publicidade como sugere o Torgal.

Eu contei com algumas festas por ano, mas confesso que na altura não pensei nas festas que duram vários dias, mas apenas naquelas que ocorrem algumas noites por ano, tipo 25 de Abril, 1º de Maio, etc.

E eu que vou viver para perto da S. João Baptista... já sei o que me espera e estou a imaginar que vale a pena pela casa que comprei, mas no fundo, sei que me vou passar com essas merdas.

Considering season 3 is boring as hell and season 4 can be described as "Baltar giving mass", forget it anyway.

But... it's a cover. It makes it *not* plagiarism.

Is it a crime to cover?

What do you mean, great research? It's taken from wikipedia! Which is what the author of this post should have done.

Some songs are covers and duly credited, others are adaptations and/or quotes/winks at the original songs.

Everybody knows this and yet you act as if you discovered something. Get real.

Re: The Tao of Mac - Foxes on fire, and other entertainment

How come? I use Firefox everyday and Opera on my mobile. They always work I never have problems...

How can people continue to compare a browser download to a plug-in download? FFS!

I support Firefox because I think we need as many successful browsers out there, as possible, that aren't made by the Destroyers of the Web, Microsoft.

I believe Firefox to be important and it's a shame that there's a lot of geeks out there now creating a dumb Safari vs. Firefox discussion when, clearly, we just need an everyone vs. Internet Exploder movement to be as strong as possible.

As always, people who should be uniting to fight bad web browsers, bad standards implementations and corporate control over what should be free (and I don't mean gratis), are dividing into stupid little fan-boy groups.

Support Firefox and Safari and Opera and Camino and all the others. Support them, because we need their ideals.
