Is there an OSX version?


You might like to try Outline in the Mac App Store - It now allows you to edit OneNote notebooks and syncs via Skydrive, Box, Dropbox etc.


It isn't. You can run it in virtualization though...


While may not be the best, but with no moving parts Alix boards are quite nice. http://www.pcengines.ch/alix2d3.htm


I used to do fresh installs (due to a general fear of incremental upgrades failing) until I tried using their upgrade guides. I've never looked back. http://www.openbsd.org/faq/upgrade54.html


I do upgrades on some machines, but for some servers (firewall, dns, print server), it just takes a lot less time to do a fresh install. I keep the configs, keys, etc. under source control and can put it all back faster than doing the upgrade.

It is also pretty good practice for anytime those servers go bad. It helps to be able to put temporary replacements in service from whatever I have lying around. I can save the hot spares for machines that have user data on them (e-mail, file servers).


I seem to recall someone (Theo, I believe) say that in order for an OpenBSD to maintain library compatibility with existing applications, you had to do an "Upgrade in Place" - and not do a fresh install.

I.E. The default approach, incremental upgrade, is the only way to ensure your OpenBSD system doesn't fail.


For the servers I'm talking about, blowing the whole thing away and installing any packages from the new disc is just fine and keeps away the clutter.

I look at it this way, if all I'm really doing is adding some flags or configuration files, I would rather just blow it away and do the reinstall. Last couple of times I did that with my firewall, it was a 20 minute install.


Completely agree with you - and it's what I've done in almost every case. The Library thing is an OpenBSD issue that people who are upgrading need to take note of though.


Soma FM's Groove Salad http://somafm.com/groovesalad/


Groove Salad is very good, but sometimes it reminds me of porno music. I've been rotating between Space Station Soma and the Dubstep channel (which actually plays quality Dubstep (if such a thing exists)).

Soma.fm is one of the websites I like giving money too, I only wish they had cooler things in their store (I've got the mug, and the hoodies/t-shirts aren't too appealing to me).


Great choice. I was getting quite sick of listening to the same albums over and over until I found this and 'The Trip' Soma.fm channel.


The entire rendering engine behind terminology supports TrueType. See http://i.imgur.com/8Xga6K4.jpg


nice, that was one of the reasons I couldn't use eterm.


Terminology doesn't share any code with eterm.


To counter all the neutral to negative feedback, I want to chime in and say I was very impressed. The execution speed with the aesthetics excite me. The gazillon-terminal-window- opens junkie in me always looking for a better terminal emulator -- especially with reasonable Unicode support. Keep up it the great work EFL team!


I recently signed up with Digital Ocean and I'm now happier I did due to responses like this.


The most bare bones is: 'perl -de 0' CPAN has a few others


Yes. I was surprised I couldn't find any network file systems that could notify the client of changes.


Nothing revolutionary, it was fun learning Go and scratching an itch.
