Why? Because I don't have one. And I don't see the point as a self-hosted user. But Apple keeps releasing things that can only be used with DotMac - and most programs only have rudimentary export features without DotMac implemented. I can understand that they also want to make money - but DotMac is just too limited for me, I can implement most of it myself much better. So give me a simple SFTP upload option and that's it ...
Efficient Editing With vim - Jonathan McPherson - nice reference for more advanced key commands in vi. I don't even use all of them - I should get used to one or the other.
I already had this image on hugoesk.de (the site no longer exists), but I converted it with Lightroom. The uploaded image (just click on the image itself, then it appears) is a 90% JPEG from the RAW image with simple post-processing using Lightsource.
Gnash is a GNU project to implement a Flash client under GPL. Very interesting thing - especially interesting will be how the reaction from Adobe will look like. I wouldn't mind a bit of diversity in that area, even if I'm not usually such a Flash fan.
... but it's only half as bad. The new Core Duo Mac is an iMac, not a Mac Mini. Who cares about the power-hungry display with built-in computer, I'm into energy-saving cookie tins. Phew. Dodged a bullet there, I thought my standard problem - I buy something and shortly thereafter it's better, faster or cheaper to get - has struck again.
The MacBook with Core Duo sounds really good, by the way.
... why do I always have the urgent need to try out any GUI editors for websites? I mean, that's highly stupid - I program content management systems. I build portal systems. I earn my damn money with such stuff. And yet - when something like SandVox or iWeb shows up, I want to try it out. Naturally, I then fail because I don't think in a GUI-compatible way and feel stupid.
You would think that by almost 40 years old, I should have realized by now that I have no clue about design and layout and always fail with GUI editors for content. So I could just stop downloading and trying out every piece of junk. But no, what's running in the background? The SandVox download ...
Well, at least I don't have the problem of Karelia, who apparently got run over by the Apple steamroller for the second time with their latest product.
open sword - pixen - found at kniebes.net: Pixel-pushing software. Looks quite nice.
