That's not so much tricking the client, but rather a feature that Google added to GMail a few years ago. If you put a slash in a label name it makes nested folders in IMAP, and also if you go into the Labs settings in GMail, there's a "Nested Labels" lab you can enable to get it in the web interface.

Yes and no. They have a new Google branded and unlocked phone called the Nexus S, but instead of selling it directly themselves, they've partnered with Best Buy so people can actually touch it and try it out before buying. The theory being that by having it sold in a brick and mortar store it will sell better than the Nexus One, where people just had to buy just on Google's good name, basically sight unseen.

Yeah, well, he was also the script editor for the tail-end of season 16 and all of season 17 (1979). In modern terms would be called the show runner, ike Russell T. Davies for new Who seasons 1-4.5 or Stephen Moffat currently.

Netflix is a (somewhat) special problem. Microsoft won't license the Silverlight DRM library to Novell for implementation in Moonlight. Novell is still trying to convince them, but no luck yet.

But Google is also offering (or is in the process of offering) all YouTube videos as WebM, and the next versions of Firefox and Opera will have WebM support, and the dev channel of Chrome already has it. They really want to switch to HMTL5. I'm sure at this point they'd prefer IE and Safari to support WebM as well, but obviously they have the storage to keep every video as H.264 and WebM.

I just recently set up the wireless at work to use WPA2 Enterprise with an Airport base station and Mac OS X Server 10.5. With Mac laptops you just enter your username and password and click "continue" when it complains about a self-singed cert. And done. I've also connected with XP and 7, and they both have different multi-step with multi-sub-step procedures for connecting the first time. I suspect that if we were a MS shop, it would Just Work (as the steps are mostly undoing stuff relating to it trying to authenticate with your Windows domain credentials), but since we're primarily Apple, it's a huge PITA.

It's not LIKE a point release, it IS a point release. It literally is Windows 6.1 to Vista's 6.0, whether I will it or not.

I'm guessing "lament" was the target word.

You should be able to find an x86_64 Linux version of the current flash. I'm running Debian Testing/Unstable and the current version of flashplugin-nonfree gets the 64bit Flash 10 plugin.

If you just want a tarball of it, you can download it from Adobe Labs.

You can also set it up on the newer ones (that have no obvious button) so that a click on the right side of bottom part of the touchpad (which actually is also a button that clicks and everything) is a right click. A middle click still requires command+click, but two zones is still good.

And through the Up-to-Date program, it's only $10 for an upgrade copy if you bought a Mac after June 8th .

And also of House Minority Leader John Boehner. Or Wayne Newton's song Danke Shoen.

It seems to be American English standard for German names that have an o-umlaut or oe (which is the same thing; the umlaut started out as a small e laying on it's side on top of another vowel) to pronounce it like "ay", instead of like the German sound English lacks or even "ur", which is more like how I think most English speakers hear o-umlaut.

p.s. Curse /. and their lack of support for non-ascii characters.

The biggest problem it causes is that you can't just stick one video inside a <video> tag and know it will work with all browsers. You can specify several videos of different formats and browsers will play the first one that they can (and right now you also have to put a flash based player or something in for IE, but that's a separate problem), but you still have to at least generate an h264 and a Theora video.

If you want an explicit Microsoft DRM video example, Netflix uses Silverlight DRM for their PC and Mac based player. It's basically the only part of Silverlight they haven't licensed to Novell for Moonlight. So, no Netflix for Linux, even once Moonlight 2 and 3 are ready.

The Mono package for MacOS X comes with IronPython. I haven't really tested it, but it does at least start. I don't see why it wouldn't work essentially the same as on Windows, except maybe with GUI stuff, if there's some Windows.Forms classes that Mono hasn't implemented yet.
