For Thunderbird, have you tried messing with the Synchronization and Storage section in the account's settings? There's a setting right at the top for controlling messages. Also make sure you have "allow windows search to search messages" unchecked in preferences or Thunderbird will create a...

JujuEdit will work way better on big files.

In the source of the message, what's it show for the content-type, content-disposition and content-transfer-encoding headers for the attachment.

Thunderbird has the same problem of course. The 64-bit windows version is slower and less stable. Also, Enigmail extension doesn't work on 64-bit because there's no 64-bit Gpg4win (or a wrapper to wrap the 32-bit one), so no reason to make a 64-bit version of the extension. (The extension isn't...

http://makemkv.com/ is super simple. You get an MKV file that you can play. If you ever need an ISO, you can search for an MKV -> ISO converter. Another option is RipIt4Me + DVD Decrypter + DVDShrink + FixVTS will work for most too. You can choose to end up with a folder of files or an ISO...

Opera (including its built-in mail client, which is amazing).

A few things to note about Opera: 12.00 was tested. With 12.02 that was just released, for the 32-bit version, Opera reverted from out-of-process plug-in handling back to in-process plug-in handling due to lots of users experiencing performance and stability problems. The 64-bit version still...

With IMAP, a delete action means to add the \Deleted flag to the message. Clients show messages marked as \Deleted in different ways. In Outlook and Outlook Express, they're crossed out. Same for Thunderbird. In Opera's built-in mail client, they're hidden from view and shown in "All...

Don't know. I just use it.

In addition, install the latest trunk x64 build from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/ and let Firefox update all the time. Then, you have the latest and greatest. And, if you have any problems with a nightly build, you can just load the stable Firefox for a bit...

Used to use eac with lame. But, I just use foobar with lame now. Both eac and foobar can lookup the cd database to automatically name (and tag when you convert) your tracks for a CD. In foobar, you just select all the tracks you want in the list, right-click the selection, goto tagging and...

Above the message list in Thunderbird (15.0a1, latest trunk at least) is a Quick Filter button. When you click it, it drops down a little bar (that stays there unless you click the Quick Filter button again) where you can type in a search field. You do not have to press enter in it. It's...

Firefox supports it. Chrome supports it. (See chrome://flags for extra acceleration stuff you can turn on. Chrome doesn't accelerate everything by default as some of it is buggy.) IE supports it. Opera 12 supports it. Hardware acceleration is used to accelerate the whole UI and everything...

The input port must have an autoclave mode then.

I use Opera as my main browser but for Firefox, I always use the latest trunk builds and just let it constantly update for each new build. I absolute love it. I get the latest and greatest. Firefox trunk builds don't break that much surprisingly. They just pretty much work. For Chrome, I do...

Really nothing to admire (not a lot of messages anyway). Just pointing out that I get a lot of use out of email.

I use email constantly. Absolutely love it. I check all of my account's with Opera's built-in mail client. I have ~100,000 messages atm. But, that's a tiny amount compared to a lot of users. I pull in all kinds of feeds and messages from mailing lists too. I just wish more people would learn...

You want this done without the program decoding to wav, fixing the audio, re-encoding it as mp3, all while not losing any quality? All that's usually done on the wav file before it's encoded as an mp3. For volume normalization (well not normalization exactly, but leveling), there are...

Associate PDF files with a batch file or something that redirects to the pdf app of your choice. You could then keep the batch file open in a text editor and change a variable and save whenever you want to switch apps. Creating a shortcut to: %windir%\explorer.exe...

In Opera, it goes by the mime type it gets from the server (or extension for local files). In "Ctrl + F12 -> advanced -> downloads", you can configure the handler for each mime type (the default application is gotten from the registry). You can also add extensions to a mime type's list. So...

It's just web dot latest and greatest. No versions anymore. You just use the newest and coolest stuff you want to/can use and degrade gracefully. Or, progressively enhance to the latest and greatest. Some stuff: http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/cors/raw-file/tip/Overview.html...

On a side, Opera now has an experimental 64bit version for Windows and Mac (there have been 64bit versions for linux and bsd for a while). Plug-ins load out-of-process with 64bit and 32bit plug-in wrappers. Plug-ins can crash without crashing Opera. This also means you can use 32bit plug-ins...

Besides some technical bonuses that have been discussed to death, the real reason is it just makes you feel all tingly. And, for many, that's good enough.:)

Or, use goto if that's not considered too loopy.

In Opera, goto "Ctrl + F12 -> Advanced -> Content -> Manage Site Preferences -> add" and add a site preference for the domain in question (or, right-click on the page and choose "edit site preference". Just take note that when doing it this way, if the page is on a sub-domain, the site...

I was able to build fastformat for Mingw no problem and created a few demo programs that used it. So, it's not hard to set up at least.

Looks cool.

So then you're just assuming it doesn't work.

Does something about it not work in Opera? Alps/Synaptic Drivers at least have behavior lists where they specify how each program should behave. The problem is, they often specify the wrong behavior for some programs like Opera. This can cause the mouse to fire the wrong events and therefore...

But note that it doesn't replace CSS. It uses some new stuff in CSS (in a way that can still be parsed by current CSS parsers, Support for the new types just needs to be added as far as parsing goes.) I've tried the build at < http://labs.opera.com/news/2011/10/19/ >. It's pretty cool. You...

In many cases, yes. But, there are a lot of demos that are just plain slow in Opera without hwa.

In the latest 12.00 snapshot, Opera supports Hardware acceleration and WebGL. HWA is only done with OpenGL so far, but DirectX (on WinXP even) will also be supported. The acceleration is still a little buggy and needs optimization, but they're working on it. Further, Opera's HWA will...

In Opera, you can disable the scrollbars via "Ctrl + F12 -&gt; Advanced -&gt; Browser". For Right-to-left pages, the scrollbar automatically switches to the the left side. But, you can disable that by going to "opera:config#RTL%20Flips%20UI".

Readability is about the same between using a string and a stringstream. With stringstream (you can use just ostringstream in your case as you only have to shove stuff into it), you have all the data in the stream and then you have to use .str() which creates a copy of that data as a string...

With: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title></title> <style> div { width: 300px; height: 300px; border: 1px solid #000; background-color: #ccc...

I just use notepad++. In "settings -&gt; preferences", see the "backup/auto-completion" and "misc" tabs for "auto-indent", "smart highlighting", "highlight matching tags" and "function auto-complete". It doesn't have any HTML5 stuff. But, if you use the macro recording and type HTML5 markup...

The document.implementation.createDocument method that was in my example creates an XML document from scratch.

Hmm, the example I posted works the same in IE9, Chrome, Opera, Firefox and Safari except for the serializeToString() difference in Opera with the implicit xml declaration. For XHR, the following works in Opera, Safari, Chrome and Firefox: var req = new XMLHttpRequest()...
