  • Apple could buy Dell outright

    I laughed!

  • iPhone Crashlogs

    This one, I’ve taken from the Brightkite iPhone beta Google Group. This should help several people who aren’t yet privy to this information. Your iPhone or iPod Touch’s iTunes backup process (the thing that some people tend to skip) dumps your device’s crash logs to a folder in your home directory. Here’s how to get…

  • wget for Mac OS X

  • Create Bootcamp partition

    Today I had to reinstall Bootcamp, and thus create a new Windows partition.

Add the following lines (using a terminal text editor) to a text file (“.rsync” for example, hidden files under Unix-like systems), and chmod +x $file. rsync –archive…

  • Console Hamachi

    I wrote before, that the console version of Hamachi didn’t seem to generate tun/tap driver errors. But after rebooting my Mac I was no longer able to start Hamachi.
