Unix tricks 13 years ago

Unfortunately OSX uses a badly outdated openssh version just like many other unix tools and it doesn't support the -W option. You could try upgrading openssh using homebrew if you want.

newrelic ruby agent is unusable on ruby 2.0 yet anyway. It breaks the whole app. Pretty much everything else works for me though!

Long time android owner and Galaxy Nexus owner here:

I... Love... This... Phone...

It takes beautiful pictures at an amazing speed, I get absolutely 0 crashes using multiple different applications, battery ALWAYS lasts at least the whole day no matter how hard I use it, and I love every single features ICS has to offer. I am in no way jealous of anything my iPhone friends can do with their phone and I will gladly buy another Nexus device when I'll decide to change phone.

I just wanted to offer the different experience I've had...

If you are an IOS user, whether a poweruser or not, you will get the latest upgrade and a range of new features by default.

If you're an IOS user, you're paying the comparable price of the latest nexus phone. If you buy the nexus instead of an iPhone, you WILL get the latest upgrade and range of new features by default. Let's keep a similar comparison please.

Running ubuntu as my main OS on my 2011 MBP for a while. Everything works and is stable except for the wireless driver, which you have to compile yourself and only supports wireless G. Things may have changed in the last months though. I don't know about the 2009 MBP hardware.

I've been working on a MBP for the last 5 month and like it. I recently installed Ubuntu 11.10 on a desktop PC I had at home. I setup everything for my needed dev environment, and unlike many other articles/posts I read, I loved it.

The computer specs are not the same, but unity is overall MUCH faster and smooth than my OSX MBP. The interface just works very smoothly and intuitively for me. I do most of my work in the terminal so I don't get to do every operations using the interface though. I'm even thinking about trading my MBP for a system76 ubuntu machine.

Unity is also quite new and I expect it to get better with every releases. Am I the only one in this situation?

I'm not hating, I just think it's weird that everyone you know have iPhones, when Android devices are outselling iPhones 2:1 and have now a bigger market share than iOS. Yet it's still possible. I'm just impressed.
