Thanks for the suggestion. I've looked into Mono+Linux as a solution but I (unfortunately) need the server to host an Umbraco CMS instance which apparently doesn't work well with Mono.
I've been looking into switching from Sprint to prepaid since our contract is up. From the looks of it, Straight Talk has the best coverage for the price. Anyone recommend other MVNOs over ST?
Checked out the homepage on FF 11.0 and the gray text under "Pure jQuery Mobile" shows up as an unreadable light gray (vs. Chrome where it shows up fine). Might want to check that out.
Don't forget to work on flexibility too: "the key to youth". I actually picked up a foam roller a few weeks ago to use on my recovery days and it's been a great supplement to weight training. Helps with recovery, prevents injury, increases mobility... the list of benefits is huge and it's really an investment in your future health. After all, who wants to sit be old and sit around when you could be out running a marathon, hiking, or something extreme?
Yep, I remember back when I tried to surf the web on a PSP or PS3: too inefficient. Along the lines of efficient web browsing, a friend introduced me to Vimperator for FireFox and I can't imagine surfing without it. Check it out if you guys want to add some vim love to your everyday browsing :)
IMO boot time isn't a big selling point anymore with SSDs in the market (albeit not exactly affordable). A MacBook Air can boot up within seconds and that's plenty fast for me.
Agreed. Back when I had Arch installed as my main OS I'd run updates every now and then only to find out after that FireFox or some other program broke. Of course, it's nice to know how your OS works and how to fix things, but considering all the other OSs out there, it's nice to have something that "just works" with as little downtime as possible.
In hindsight, the learning phase of having to set everything up taught me a lot about using Linux, bash, etc. Switching to a tiling WM (dwm rocked) was a great experience when I had been using Windows all my life.
I'm guessing these guys have several years internship experience and a load of side projects coming out of school? I know a few guys who came out with just a degree and 0 exp starting at around the mid $50k range.
