Speaking of cunt-pus shitware[0], we have textmate. I fucking hate textmate.
Obviously, a text editor that can’t be used[1] to type text in the main languages I use is useless[2].
Well, boo fucking hoo and cry me a river right? Lots of things[3] are useless; there’s no need waste energy hating on them, though, right?
Generally, that is [...]
Arq encrypts and backs up data from your Mac to Amazon S3. It’s exactly as simple as it can be, and it fucking works perfectly.
I use various other backup software to completely backup my main workstation[1], but use Arq to assign peace-of-mind to certain applications on certain workstations and servers.
Example: we manage paper documents at [...]

The bummer is that The Community has to build it, which is always a slightly dubious prospect. But once in a while, that [...]
There is no easy way to tell Microsoft’s IME what kind of keyboard you are using to input Japanese. In various circumstances Windows will just decide that since you are typing in Japanese, you must be using a Japanese keyboard layout[1]. Often that is not the case, but there’s no GUI to change it. You [...]
Although there are many Japanese dictionary/tool apps on iPhone, including at least one fairly decent free one, the $20 Japanese.app is not only the best fucking Japanese reference app on iPhone, but also the best Japanese reference app I have ever used on any platform, including all the weird proprietary platforms developed solely for providing [...]
