Can you elaborate on your benchmark method? And the speed-improvement (percentage) you found?

General Software Discussion / Re: Windows Updates
« Last post by Ath on June 02, 2013, 04:37 AM »
If you have ever needed to uninstall a windows update, then don't delete the last month of updates, so you can still revert them if needed. In all other cases just remove all of it. In the early days of windows updates the updates where sometimes flawed, so an uninstall was needed quite regularly, but I havent needed to uninstall any updates (from XP to W7) for many years. Unfortunately since Vista, the stored updates/uninstallers can't be (safely) deleted, but they do seem to use less diskspace.

They stay there so you can uninstall them (yeah, right :down:), or until you delete them manually. My first line of defense in recovering harddisk space on a Windows XP system 8)

Developer's Corner / Opinions wanted: Best SVN client for use on a Mac
« Last post by Ath on May 09, 2013, 04:36 AM »
Hey guys and gals,

I'd better ask your opinion on this matter:
Background info
We're a development shop, that uses mostly Windows to develop software (client- and server-side), written in Java, C#, Cobol, Progress, C++, html5/Javascript, Delphi and Modula (most projects only use a subset of these ;)) and deploy that on Windows, HP-UX and Redhat Linux.
We use several SVN repositories for source storage and versioning.
For some of these applications we also develop apps for iOS, that need to be developed on a Mac, and for Andoid, that can nicely be developed on Windows.
On Windows we use the 'native' IDE's for the development languages named above, that all come with integrated/plug-in SVN support, like Eclipse, NetBeans and Visual Studio, or use TortoiseSVN from Windows Explorer for update/commit/merge/diff.

The dilemma
The (small) department that develops using the Mac now asked my department (Software Engineering) for a (single) license of SmartSVN to be able to update/commit directly from the Mac to the SVN repositories. Knowing nearly nothing about development on Mac I did some research to find that this tool requires a recurring licensing cost that we'd like to avoid, I suggested them to try and use Eclipse with the Subversive plug-in, as is our default choice on Windows/Eclipse.

Your advice requested
Who has experience with development on Mac, using SVN as a source repository, and can give some advice in this matter?
I have 2 goals here: 1) We'd prefer to have an open source/free solution, but if there is some edge in using SmartSVN (the team is pushing in that direction, because 'it was investigated and found to be good'), I'd be very interested to hear from you. And 2) We'd like to use one of the already known/familiar tools so switching developers will be as smooth/easy as possible.

Tools/solutions I've found so far:

TIA!

service termination timeout is out of admissable values
-HankFriedman (May 09, 2013, 12:12 AM)
This sounds like the crap advise you'd expect from hoax-systemscanners.
I'd get a second opinion, by using one of the other, reputable, on-line scanners.

Might be easier just to get/buy a new keyboard.

+1
Just buy a good quality keyboard, or get a cheap model and replace that every 1 or 2 year...
Would graphite powder be advisable?

Nope, it's going to get worse with that, as the carbon will short-circuit the leads in the switches...
