It’s great when someone has such a large online presence that, if they have a problem with a huge company like Google, the company ends up fixing it just for the PR. I doubt they’d respond the same way to an average person.

I enjoy using the Arc browser, but after receiving an email from the company about being acquired - where they said “Arc and Arc Search will continue to exist; we’ll share a long-term plan soon”. To me, that sounds like they don’t have a plan and the browser will be shut down. I guess it’s time to start considering alternatives.

try iPhone app RTM - it is almost as simple as text file. It has more features, but I use it only as simple list of TODOs

I didn’t know that Dvořák is famous outside Czechia and even outside Europe.

New comment by kraag22 in "Booking.com is moving its customer service staff to an outsourcing company"

kraag22 — Fri, 11 Feb 2022 09:32:34 +0000

Exactly. I have been using booking for years without single issue. Dozens of stays in many countries.

Why it should be a problem to move some employees to different company? This is happening often...

My english is not good enough to translate this. Even with dictionary I have no chance. What is meaning of this - for example? "She was a descript person, a woman in a state of total array." I understand every word, but don't get meaning at all.

3*10000 hours is 10 years of full time job 365 days 8 hours per day. Do you really think, that somebody did that? Before he created mobile game in 3 months?

I totaly agree. It is really great, when you need to click on link in the footer of the page, that keep running out.

I just don't read news on April 1. Sometimes is really hard to decide what is joke and what is true.

kraag22 — Sat, 08 Feb 2014 11:41:35 +0000

I tried hubiC and it exactly same as dropbox, but worse services and better prices. So it is useless. I need cloud storage which I could use "unsynchronized". If I had 10TB hardrive in my MAC, I would use it. But I have only 100 GB so it is useless
