I always have hardtime understanding the logic behind a "portable app" "installer". Why cannot they provide a simple zip file containing what is needed to run the damn thing?
If someone wants to provide a menu application that is fine but however an installer does not make life easier. I think that the best way would be a menu builder that scans the pointed drive for exe, bat, jar etc then it creates the menu based on those apps on a drive or in folders.-kartal (April 20, 2009, 12:33 AM)
I'm sorry, ill share. It is not doable with google talk or notifier. I wanted gmail to act as default e-mail program, so when a program or my keyboard sent the command to open mail, gmail will be opened.-Coeluh (April 17, 2009, 10:50 AM)
Folks, the main point of my post was retention......
One thing about Evernote 2... ...that is not documented is its ability to save in real time.
I have never lost any keystroke when the screen went the BSOD-ish shade of blue!So, if one needs to have the assurance that what is being typed will not be lost, then Evernote 2 is the ticket.

Unfortunately, the Evernote 3 client lost this very valuable capability. In my trials of E3 if there was a BSOD or in random testing of cutting power manually and my assistant dropping the battery at an unannounced moment while I was typing E3 did not retain the keystrokes after the Return/Save.
For whatever reason, I am unable to retain my train of thought while typing since I think fast and type slow. In cases where I was typing away and the PC glitched, I was unable to rebuild the scenario. Most frustrating.
Evernote 2 kept every keystroke regardless of the reason for the PC calamity. This significantly lowered the stress level and I never had to worry about AutoSave either.
To me this is the singular, albeit, "undocumented" feature that makes Evernote 2 stand taller than the rest.
If there is a chance to lose what you write, what good is any editor, note-taker, word-processor, etc.?-CodeTRUCKER (April 17, 2009, 12:49 AM)
Slysoft should have created a new product AnyHD that cannot do DVD at all, and then package with every license of AnyHD a free license to AnyDVD so that its users can do DVDs as well.-CWuestefeld (April 16, 2009, 01:24 PM)
Why should a user of AnyHD have to suffer for the sake of mindset? Suffer how you ask? To have to open separate applications just so people's 'mindset' would be in a certain way. It's sort of like regular versions vs pro versions- the pro version has more features than the regular version, but both are built into the same application. What's wrong with that?-wraith808 (April 16, 2009, 02:10 PM)
It is not a "separate app"; it simply adds the ability to strip the copy protection from HD-DVD and BRD. People open the exact same application that they always have. It just has more capabilities.
Slysoft was the first to break the copy protection for the HD-DVD and BRD, and then when a newer, supposedly better copy protection was introduced, Slysoft broke it again. Don't you think they deserve to earn a little more revenue for that?-J-Mac (April 16, 2009, 02:27 PM)

Because Slysoft screwed up, that's why.-CWuestefeld (April 16, 2009, 02:17 PM)

Both machines are probably on the same WAN IP, though? That's not the case with p3lb0x and I-f0dder (April 13, 2009, 09:53 AM)
)As for the general topic of buying games online, I prefer it to traditional physical box retail sales. I use Steam, Direct2Drive, Impulse, and GOG.-tinjaw (April 13, 2009, 08:25 AM)
While complaining about Steam, why is it that buying the physical and presumably more costly boxed game in a local store is easily about half the price you'd pay online?
This whole Steam business is the biggest swindle being forced on us by capitalists in a long time. There is no competition so games are being 'rented' to us at prices far in excess of anything we were paying before.-Eóin (April 10, 2009, 06:31 AM)
There are two ways you can develop for the iPhone. One approach is to write web pages for mobile Safari, using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and your favorite dynamic language. The other is to write native applications to run directly on the iPhone, using Objective-C and the iPhone SDK.
We strongly believe that each programming method has its own place, and that you should always ensure you’re using the correct one before you get started with any iPhone project.
