  1. Jiggle on Apple May Remove the Home Button On the Next IPad · · Score: 2

    FWIW, there's no way (afaik) to stop icons from jiggling when you're done rearranging them, other than pressing the home button. I guess they'll have to fix that one.

  2. Re:I love the idea, on The Pirate Bay Co-Founder Starting P2P-DNS · · Score: 2

    in the next revision even in the main OS is going to have iTunes being the main source of software

    The Mac App Store is not a part of iTunes.

  3. Re:Proof that Google has fanboys too. on Survey Says Most iPhone Users Love AT&T · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The iPhone meanwhile does not have a standard screen resolution (retina display, hello!),

    From a developer's point of view (which is really what matters here), the screen does have the same amount of points. It's just that on the iPhone 4, 1 pt = 2 px. Thus, apps designed for earlier iPhones behave well on the new display.

  4. Re:Expensive on Updated Mac Mini Aims For the Living Room · · Score: 1

    Not sure what "CS" is, but Macs play MKV just fine in VLC.

  5. Re:What about Flash games and other stuff? on Adobe Not Worried About the Future of Flash · · Score: 1

    it still lacks functions which have existed in Flash for what seems like eons, such as dynamic bitrates (connection quality goes down, the amount of data sent to you goes down to compensate), and real-time seeking (ever want to skip around in a long video before the whole thing has loaded?).

    Just wanted to mention there's Live HTTP Streaming: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Live_Streaming , which does both of those things.

    It only works on OS X Snow Leopard and iPhone so far, but it's a start. :-)

  6. Re:Not just for jailbreakers on Apple Bans Jailbreakers From the App Store · · Score: 1

    Thank you for the pointer! My account now works properly again.

  7. Not just for jailbreakers on Apple Bans Jailbreakers From the App Store · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I got the exact same message a couple of weeks ago when I tried to log in to ADC. Here's a screenshot: http://tomasf.se/other/appleid.jpg

    I'm not a jailbreaker, though, so either Apple made a mistake in my case, or this has nothing to do with jailbreaking. Now to figure out how to resolve this... :-/

  8. Re:Location of the definitions on Report That OS X Snow Leopard May Include Antivirus · · Score: 1

    I have no idea why that got modded Funny. I'm serious - the definitions are in that file. :-)

  9. Location of the definitions on Report That OS X Snow Leopard May Include Antivirus · · Score: 2, Funny

    FWIW, the file containing virus definitions is located at: /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources/XProtect.plist
