I think one of the appeals of TM1 was that it WAS a native Mac app and felt like one. Qt apps never 'feel' completely native, so if you went down that path you'd end up with an awkward, substandard, non-native text…
Depending on the configuration, it can be accessed from a remote computer. In this case, it was configured for localhost access, however it is entirely possible that it could be world-accessible.
You probably didn't need to copy and paste the entire error message. You can easily access the webpage through Google's cache if you're having problems – http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?hl=en&outpu...
A lot of EA's stuff is ported to Mac with Cider/TransGaming. From memory The Sims 3 is done that way.
To be fair, it's pretty horrid on OS X as well - several of these issues apply cross-platform (iTunes WiFi sync error messages are presented to me on a daily basis running Lion, for example.)
I'm just the messenger – by no means am I in any way associated with HN.
You'll probably need to start a new account, unfortunately – there doesn't appear to be any protocol for being 'unhellbanned'.
pferreir, just a heads-up - you've been hellbanned. This means all of your comments are automatically marked as [dead], but you can't see this.
What on earth was so inappropriate?
I'm missing a whole bunch of keys – I previously had about 4 keys registered, now it's just one.

Thanks very much – I am indeed trying from Australia. Seems insane that they're breaking URLs in an attempt to serve us 'local' content.
The two linked popsci.com pages are both giving 404 errors for me – are you able to find a working link? They look interesting! (Technically speaking, the web server is returning 200 OK, but it's 'Page Not Found')
Haha, hi there! Perhaps I was a little harsh in my comment - I really do like your site.
They're certainly not bad (and what I subscribe to in RSS) when one considers the field. A lot of it is very US-centric and some of the 'rumours' aren't very news-worthy (the numerous stories on dock connectors for the…
The problem is that making a change like requiring authorisation (à la Core Location) for Address Book would cause backwards compatibility hell.
I find the layout irritating as well. While The Noun Project is good for common nouns, if you're looking for something slightly out of the norm, you'll have to scroll through endless pages to find something that will…
It works best with GitHub repositories, but you can use it for basic git commands with any git repository. I'm not sure that it supports pushing to/pulling from anything except GitHub, so you might still need…
Apple has to comply with its contract just as the developers do. I did just check the agreement and either party can terminate with 30 days' notice for any or no reason, so they could theoretically terminate. Given this…
It's a compelling argument, but if there wasn't "at-will" firing, this sort of underhanded "give us our shares back or we'll fire you" stuff that Zynga is purportedly doing couldn't happen without nasty court cases.
Yeah, of course. You might be required to give 2 weeks' notice or something and if you're contracted you might be liable for breach of contract but nobody's going to force you to work.
I may be wrong, but I think that was wound back as part of WorkChoices being repealed.
Compact cameras are still terrible in that regard; you can only get that 'off to photo taken in 0.3 seconds' with SLRs today. It's thus not really a valid argument for compact digital cameras still having relevance.
Chrome beta does prefetch URLs: download the latest version, go to a Wikipedia page, wait a few seconds then click the first link – it should appear (almost) instantly. I don't know if it prefetches links in webmail,…
Those are both really interesting, thanks. I'm really embarrassed to admit I have very little understanding of what happens below Objective-C. Looks like it's time for me to start reading…
