I thought I remembered having 512 megs in there but I’d forgotten that the first Mac mini revisions werewas actually designed to handle OS 7. No wonder it’s slow. Hopefully I’ll receive my power supply soon enough — and it will indeed solve my iMac’s problems — that I don’t get tempted to spend 100 € (which I don’t really have right now) on a 1GB stick for a computer I hardly ever use.

One more round of Leopard screenshots (in case the other series had been CoD-ed before you clicked the links), some of which are a bit interesting. Exposé in Spaces (more like Exposé Squared) is pretty nice — Spaces might be the first virtual desktop manager that actually feels like you do have several screens connected to your computer.

Windows Live Writer: it’s free (duh), it works with most major blog systems (what?!), and it seems not to suck at all (gasp!).

YouTube HTML easter eggs. You’d think if I were a true webmaster I’d be sprinkling my sites with stuff like this.

London cabbies reject satellite navigation. Funny that you just can’t see a taxi in Paris without that little glowing screen on the dashboard.

Are London cabbies independent workers, though? Because most French taxis are part of big networks, and that could account for the difference.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
