https://github.com/blucz/Vector is a project that uses Hershey fonts to emulate a vector display terminal.

This is not fast. It uses less texture memory but it is not faster than 2 triangles per character. This is why no one really uses this technique in a production system right now.

The article says he is not coming with.

10.10 required, lame. This is most useful on Mavericks, where the sidebar doesn't already have widgets.

Founder here... we just launched.

History of the HiFi product this was built up from here: http://blog.roonlabs.com/what-a-journey/

I always wanted to post our product on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7629177 "My Quest to Build the Ultimate Music Player" We solve almost every concern posted, especially about music metadata organization.

Any questions? We want to hear your issues with music software.

I want to see some (or a lot of?) chat history offline, and then send msgs while offline. I don't want it to scan the network, delay loads, or blow up in any way just because the network is down. Think about the Whatsapp or Telegram experience, as opposed to Slack or Facebook Messenger. If you are in and out of the subway, or in elevators, or just where there are spotty networks, the mobile experience blows for anything but the super popular and consumery chat services.

Unlike the people who can't figure out why this is better than IRC, I find a ton of value in your project. After leaving Campfire, moving to Kato, and then settling with Slack, I am really unhappy with the Slack mobile experience.

lacks offline mobile support :-(

The owner of the github repo and myself worked on this for a while: https://github.com/blucz/Vector

It does what you said. We never took this anywhere, but it does work, and on retina displays, it's really pretty.

this is not vim, this is some incomplete bindings implementation.

I would buy this as an epub.

Launch the Flash simulation, click on Tychonian, and trace a planet. Venus is unexpected.

It feels like this project is like 2 guys at Samsung and Intel and 2 PR departments just wanting to generate press releases.

Hrm.. I did the same thing last week.

OXO Good Grips Brushed Stainless Steel Ladle Sold by Amazon.com LLC (Amazon.com) $9.99

I love that they are getting bigger. I had a big issue with the Galaxy Note vs Galaxy Nexus. The Note's 5"+ screen sold me, but the button configuration was last generation (android 2.x), and no ICS, and not the pure Google experience.

HP, ignoring the disaster that they are, really were headed down the right path. A tiny phone, a large phone, and a tablet. Over the years, you could totally see that large phone getting larger and the tiny phone getting even smaller. Great for both me and you. Too bad they went and screwed everything up.

For a plate you will remove a few times in the life of the phone, it's a strange reason for killing the deal.

I agree, it is very cheap feeling, but it also feels thin and snug because it is a useless piece of shell.

You know, ideally, it'd be paper thin, but just as effective as holding in the battery/sim.

Official? You mean you WANT a carrier to sell you a phone?

The GSM model overseas is Google-official, it's just not here now and who knows when it will be. I got mine from Expansys, it came with English everything as well as a US plug.

You are correct. I only looked at the price at Best Buy, which is $799. Wirefly is $709.

You need MTP stuff -- mtp-tools. The newest Amarok or Rhythmbox w/ plugin should work fine.

The Nexus unified the filesystem, and therefore cant give USB block-level access. MTP was the only way to go unless you want to have a separate partition, which leads to the terrible 'is the app on local or on sd?' situation.

Here is the situation described: http://www.electronista.com/articles/11/11/19/galaxy.nexus.f...

For mac users, you want this tool: http://www.android.com/filetransfer/

After having the Galaxy Nexus for 2 weeks, the phone no longer feels large in my hands, but the Nexus S it replaced looks ancient and pathetically tiny/low-resolution.

Google is really letting Verizon screw this up. First no Wallet, then Verizon apps on phone, and now that the LTE model is released, we find that the GSM model is cheaper to import than the Verizon LTE model is to buy without contract.

The GSM model also happens to be pentaband 3g, so it works with TMobile and AT&T in the US. I've been using mine on TMobile for 2 weeks now, bought for about $730 from Expansys.

And yes, it is awesome. Just make sure you unlock the bootloader immediately, so you dont have to wipe it later if you choose to unlock then.
