Missing your Facebook contacts in Adium?

casper — Fri, 26 Nov 2010 23:19:03 +0000

There is a problem with the protocol Adium used to implement the Facebook Chat, which means that some people have problems seeing their contact (they are not there…).

As of Adium 1.4.2 this will be fixed as Adium is moving to the new protocol – or they say they are.

Control Firefox memory consumption

casper — Sun, 23 May 2010 09:43:39 +0000

Firefox has become a memory hog, it will do it best to use all the memory available, or so it seams. I sometimes see that Firefox uses more than 1GB Ram, which will grind my computer to halt, or make everything else very slow.

According to this, there is a simple way to [...]

MacHeist

One of the nice things about MacHeist is that you pay a small amount of money and you get a fair select of Software.

The last bundle (as they call it) included â€˜MacJournalâ€™ which Iâ€™m using to write this – I always like offline tools to online tools (not depending on an internet connection).

I’ve been learning something new this week (which happens on a regular basic), but this time it was very official, I actually went to a training.

I’m using Google Reader for my rss feeds (that way I can read them everywhere), and now they (well been able to for a while), allow you to share things on a public page.

When you see items you would like other people to see (actually people can also subscribe to it) you can share [...]

“The end of the Mac road”???

casper — Sun, 13 May 2007 00:23:22 +0000

I was reading this entry on Ian Betteridge blog, where he talks about his switch from OSX to Gnu/Linux (Ubunto), not that I have any specfic issues with that.

But one thing which stands out was this sentence: “First up, letâ€™s look at what this move is not: Itâ€™s not a [...]

Buggy QuickTime 7.1.5 update (update)

casper — Mon, 07 May 2007 11:59:57 +0000

I commented on the QuickTime 7.1.5 update, and how it broke VLC (and maybe other things).

Well it turned out that part of the problem was partly 40cm from the keyboard – deleting the VLC settings (program is provided in the DMG), solved the problem with VLC. And last week Apple released an
