Comment Re: Why aim for shrinking Market share. (Score 1) 381

Yeah. You can identify as a desktop, but that means it wouldn't affect the tablet metric at all (while it might skew the desktop browser metric). Some other browser like Dolphin let you identify as an iPad or iPhone, which IMO is far more useful since many sites assume wrongly that android supports flash. iPads and iPhones tend to get served pure html5 video. This is a global setting in Dolphin, not a per-page thing. Now that would affect the tablet market measurements, but comparatively few people use that browser (or one like it) and even fewer use that option.

Well. I'm on the latest stable release. It has something very similar to "mission control" where you get your virtual desktops, windows "exposé"-style, and your dock all on one screen. It also has something similar to the notifications center on the bottom. Personally I like it. One hot corner and I get an overview of everything, which is what "mission control" was designed to do. It's search function (on the same screen) is also very similar in form to the iPad's universal search. It's function is similar as well.

I have a DVDO Edge which can do this. You set the output resolution to something fixed and set the scaling (and other settings) for each input individually. You could presumably get the exact scale you're looking for with a test pattern and tweaking. I don't recall if there is a shortcut to what you want but I wouldn't be surprised.

Supposedly Wind Waker HD is going to load the whole world-map into memory. I hope it's either not a lot of data (most of it is ocean) or is loaded piece by piece. Otherwise there is gonna be a problem. I'll get it in either case, but it would be a shame if it was slower than the GC version.
