  1. Cool, I guess, but... on Listening Robot Senses Snipers · · Score: 1

    ...if I were the kind of person that has to worry about sinpers, I'd rather know where they are before they take that headshot.

    I guess that's on the feature list for 2.0?

  2. Re:No on Apple's Illuminous (Aqua v2) to Compete with Aero · · Score: 1

    This is the company that brought us "Think Different" and introduced CamelCase to the marketing world. Don't kid yourself, if Steve-o thinks "Illuminous" has a great ring to it, then Illuminous it will be.

    I bet 10.5 wouldn't even mark it as a misspelling.

  3. Pine was great, until... on Patches For Pine Going Away · · Score: 1

    I used pine quite a lot at the beginning of my email career, and it certainly does do nearly all of what you'd need an email client to do, and has an interface that is significantly better than it might seem at first blush.

    But one thing it doesn't do--or at least, requires so much kludging to achieve that it might as well be impossible--is handle multibyte characters and alternative encodings. If I can't read and write email in Japanese, then I flat-out cannot use whatever client it is that lacks the feature.

    So I guess I'll survive, insofar as I've been surviving for coming on a decade now.
