Yes, entrepreneurs may be threatening to large companies, but they are not at all threatening to political leaders. Entrepreneurs are not youth culture, they're businessmen, they work within the capitalist system, not opposed to it or trying to change it, like previous youth cultures

Lion is the first OSX version I've used, and it's really hard for me to understand these complaints.

1) Removed? It's still in there for office and photoshop

2) Never really need to minimize, use mission control

3) Have no use for that green button, use full screen apps

4) Coming from Windows, learned reverse scrolling in 15 minutes, now the other way feels strange

5) Can't really address this, this macbook air is by far the fastest computer I've used

6,7) Haven't noticed these

>In OSX you can only resize a window in the bottom right corner, in Ubuntu I can resize from any corner, or I can hold Alt and middle click anywhere near a corner of a window to start resizing it. No more hunting for the resize sweetspot.

In Lion it's possible to resize from any window border.

I don't know what these other complaints are. Personally, coming from Windows & Ubuntu, I just fell in love with the way everything just works in OSX. I guess I'm not a "power user" though.

I imported 19 000 songs and started playing a song while still importing and playback only paused once for maybe a second and then everything was smooth. Impressive really.

Yes, Airfoil works with this app fantastically. I use it for Spotify and VLC also.

Please don't write anarchy when you mean chaos.

...or that's his excuse for staying in the U.S.

What is this based on? For someone living in Finland, this seems very far from the truth.

Agreed. Seeing how shallow most of the articles on Jobs' life have been, this makes me feel a strange tingle of pride for being a sociology student.

Seriously though, that article is beautifully written. I wish my writings would be half as coherent.

Your comment has the first mention of beard that I saw in this thread. Let's not derail this discussion.

I have the same problem. Everything is very tiny. I just end up pinch zooming most web pages. I'm thinking of buying a desktop monitor and hooking it up with the MBA.

In all honesty I think I have to go see an optometrist also. It's long due. I'm getting these headaches staring at the MBA screen, never used to get them before.

It is written like an alien studying human interaction. Some of what was written is decent advice but it comes off as off-putting.

Yes, listen to this man. If you are prone to depression/anxiety/paranoia/negativity do not try hallucinogenics.

Otherwise, it can be a positively life altering experience.

Yes, definitely go through your first trip with a knowledgeable supervisor. Someone who can guide you and talk you out if you seem to be heading into a bad trip. One can always be talked out of a bad trip.

I did the same thing. Delete everything. Although, some actions you can only "hide", like comments on other people's walls and such. At least that's my understanding.

Yes, in many markets it is fairly easy. But in most it is not. In fact, anywhere you are, it's quite a hassle to find a good tenant, find new ones when the previous occupier leaves, fix the house etc...

Yes, you're special because your home is in an area where people want to rent it. Every home-owner certainly does not have this advantage. In your case it makes more sense to buy than in others.

A person renting simply needs to invest the money that he would otherwise be spending on a loan, in something else, like stocks etc.

This is a Finnish company and there has been some discussion about this in Finland. Basically it's bullshit, the next Power Balance.

There's no credible research to back their claims. Only one study that didn't include a control group.

I couldn't find any english sources but here is a Finnish one from a science magazine, run it through google translate: http://www.tiede.fi/blog/2010/11/09/korvavalo-aprillipila-va...

I think they are refreshing this fast to include Thunderbolt in everything.

AppleInsider says Thursday.

"This article compares services that provide access to interactive, on-demand, and complete music playback, whether paid or free. So services like Pandora, Last.fm's radio, iTunes music store, etc, are not considered because they technically do not satisfy the criteria."

While I agree that last.fm is pretty great, there's a reason it was not included in this list.

I often wonder why the thought of moving somewhere far away is appealing to people. Leaving all this shit behind etc.

I've been there. Traveled for many years around asia and south america, worked (fulfilling?) volunteer jobs etc.

Then I returned home. Fixed all the shit I left hanging here and started to live a decent life right here.

The answer I've found is that only people who haven't been travelling, dream of travelling. Those of us who've been there, know that it's not very appealing if your mind is troubled. Your life won't magically change if you move to another country.
