I did this a few months ago. Went to firefox with TreeStyleTabs, which is not a bad combination. I miss Opera Link (Firefox has similar but it's not as good), but otherwise most things have worked ok.
The 1 really annoying thing that there doesn't seem to be a plugin for, is that if a website in the background does a javascript.alert(), firefox will change to that tab. In (old) Opera, it would just make it flash on the tab bar, but leave it in the background. And there's a site I have open in the background (yucata.de) that does this a lot:(
What do you need 4G for, anyway? H+ Is pretty fast, and the university will have wifi everywhere I should think. A Galaxy S2 will be perfectly adequate.
So yes - those blinky ones are great for spotting in periphery vision, but terrible for tracking the movement of the cyclist. You really MUST have a solid rear light if cycling in the dark. A blinky one as well is good, but the solid makes all the difference.
Rip to single-track flac with (embedded) cuesheet, and build individual-track mp3s from that however you like. That's what I do (well, I use wavpack and ogg, but the same applies)
Yes you can kind of make Tofu tasty with some work (though personally I've never had tofu elevated beyond "edible"), but you have to do nothing to a chicken breast to make it tasty other than cook it.
Well, for me it's the exact opposite way round. I'll eat Tofu uncooked out of the packet and I like it, but I've found Chicken to be no better than "edible" when cooked in a curry, and unpleasant the rest of the time.
I would love a Leaf for daily use - but what would I do for those roughly once-a-fortnight long trips that are well out of its range? Owning 2 cars just isn't worth it.
"You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn’t it be much worse if life *were* fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe."
Yep, I've been using this for a couple of years to upload to a SMB share on a raspberry pi server. Works flawlessly. I can then take the files off the pi as I sort them into folders and stuff, and it all stays in sync fine.
If I made a movie in 1989, I wouldn't care about you copying it to watch it.
But I would care about: 1. Someone else charging you for a copy. 2. Someone else remixing the crap out of it to make something shitty that's still associated with my name.
I don't think PD is the answer - perhaps things could go Creative Commons after 25 years instead?
No, the Nissan Leaf is the "still rich enough to spend a huge chunk of money on a low-range toy" man's Tesla. There is no poor man's electric car, or even a lower-middle-class man's electric car.
Of course we still have cheques. Unlike the GP, we seem to have to write them for quite a lot of after-school clubs and things. It does seem very last century to me.
Still like that in the UK, apart from the interest rates. In fact it's got better here since the 80s. But you do need solid ID to get a bank account for some reason.
I wanted to trademark the work "drivethru" in the UK, to stop McDonald's using it and make them spell it the proper, British, way. But I couldn't be arsed.

This was a uk study - we get phone, unlimited fibre and unlimited calls for about $60/m. Why would I pay more to avoid the adverts I already block?
Precisely. How long have we had Python 3.x now? And almost everyone is still using 2.x
20 minutes? How about 0 to 1,320 MW in 12 seconds - http://www.electricmountain.co...
I look forward to when this hits version 1 and has a windows binary build.

If you travel with them, you can drink with them before they're 21! 18 in the UK, lower in some other European countries.
What is this "nook" you speak of? Never got out of the USA, I believe, whereas Kindle is pretty worldwide.

Better get into bitcoin now, this could drive the price high. Or low. Who knows?

I don't need a menu bar, just a normal window title bar will do me, like every other app on my computer.
Grr.
Which is also wrong. Live audience all the way, baby :)

CDs ARE Digital Music. And there's nothing stopping the files on my PC being a perfect audio copy of the CD.
That is not cheap - in the UK you can get a phone deal that's £20 (~$30) upfront for 300 mins / 300 texts / 500Mb data each month for life.
Yes - £20 ONCE, that allowance ongoing for every month thereafter for FREE.
Sure, you have to buy a handset. And they inject a few ads in the internet browsing.

Miles and yards would do, but I agree miles and feet (or miles and 0.1 miles) is just irritating.
