the alt-pg up/dwn feature to adjust brightness is pretty great. the fact that it rolls back in the morning is pretty clever, i always found myself having to fidget with settings on my monitor.

i wish more devices, like tvs, had flux baked in.

currently you cannot (according to their docs), however it sounds like that will be possible in the future.

that's a clever way of sticking it to them, jrock. i feel sorry for my neighbors already.

this brings up an interesting point. how difficult would it be to automate scraping off of one of these services?

incredible. i never really thought how jarring and jerky flapping wings would be...

i tried offering my help, mostly for web and icon work, but the developers never responded. i'm sure i'm not the first.

they got the name out, and are disconnected from christoforo. this is what i'd call a cheap slam dunk.

more clever working coming from you, hakim. love that the elements are still usable.

blueharvest is a pay mac os app that does this: http://www.zeroonetwenty.com/blueharvest4/

don't get me wrong, i think this needs to be fixed at a higher level to really squash the trails mac leaves on other servers (just browsing a network share leaves these behinds).

awesome. i'm going to have some fun with this and my hmd-z1 (right click > 3d mode on) when it comes in!

it's really staggering the amount of work and data google is offering up here.

Re:App.net on Thursday July 14, 2011 @08:08PM (#2765738)
this might sound lazy, but why don't you scrape the content (description, icon, screens) when i add my app?
it's better than people are making it out to be. if you enjoyed the first, you'll enjoy the nostalgia. it's a little uneven in terms of fun and pacing (as such a frakenstein'ish project with multiple hands and such a long development cycle will lead to), but i think it's worth playing.

Re:New Mobile Safari stuff in iOS5 on Tuesday June 07, 2011 @04:32PM (#2630735)
while i use icab 99% of the time, i've hit a few limits. first off, not being able to set it as a default browser is frustrating. secondly, i've found a few rendering differences between it and safari: onswipe (the tablet theme powering wordpress.com blogs) and google font api being the two biggest ones i've ran into recently.
Re:Google to offer for-pay Translate API on Friday June 03, 2011 @11:58PM (#2618842)
people (non-hackers) are searching for content (and people) on facebook. pages alone host a considerable amount of fresh content from businesses, institutions and organizations.

you do have to consider many of those searches as looking for stuff already in their social graph (friends, pages, etc). i know i use their search to navigate all the time.

when htc improves their battery life (as far as the manufacturer can do) they'll be tops in my book.

Re:Techniques To Simplify Sign-Ups and Log-Ins on Thursday May 05, 2011 @12:49PM (#2518020)
to counter this, i prefer using my email. it's always unique and i don't need to make something up if my goto username is already taken.
i'm able to still use netflix after getting 2 login failures on my end... it's a hassle but it's not blocking me from using it entirely.
