My MacBook Pro’s trackpad and keyboard freezes for three seconds after I plug in any USB device
It’s been happening for a while and I’m so over it. The solution is so simple. Apparently what causes this problem is this application called Android File Transfer. It must’ve installed something to do with USB on to your machine.
All you need to do is remove it entirely from your Mac. Done. Hello to responsive keyboard and mouse.
Fucking Android.
Pick your perfect home movie theater: futuristic, vintage, modern, or Mario.
Very tough to pick. Collect them all?
Obviously the 2nd and the third one is the best! But the last is definitely something no one can just ignore :p
Laggy scrolling on Chrome or Safari on Retina MacBook Pros? Problem Solved!
A lot of people have been complaining about one of the drawbacks of being an early adopter of Retina display laptops: laggy scrolling on many of many of the apps especially on Webkit-based web browsers such as Chrome and Safari.
I have noticed that both of the browsers have gradually been performing better and better since they first supported the Retina display MacBook Pros but when browsing some image heavy websites, they still exhibit very noticeable lag when you scroll. You don’t notice it? Try browsing TheVerge.com or your Facebook News Feed.
Luckily I found a solution. Download WebKit Nightly (link) and use it to browse these problematic websites. You will see that the lag is completely gone.
This does not only tell you that the problem is not about the hardware, it also confirms that software optimization is still required by developers. And it is not likely that developers are going to pay attention to this until they at least own one of these machines or the Retina laptops become mainstream.
But at the very least, these sites are running fast again. Perhaps faster than the normal non-Retina display computers. Although you still have to deal with it quitting itself every now and then.
Speaking English kills
Found this on a friend’s wall. Awesome.
The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or the Americans».
«On the other hand, the French eat a lot of fat and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or the Americans».
«The Japanese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or the Americans».
«The Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or the Americans».
Conclusion: «Eat and drink whatever you like. It’s speaking English that kills you».
Note to self: Get this before the next flight!
Saw this post (The most comfortable man in the world) on Reddit and I am already sold. Will have to get it as soon as I can.
Edit: Ordered it. Although some comments on Reddit say this turns a man into a walking vaginahead.
Video game music is beautiful
Something those who were born before the mid-80s will probably never understand. Video games will be part of us Gen Y forever. Regardless of how old we’ve become we will still play video games.
(As aggressively and obsessively, but—more subtle)
