Accept an Invitation in Seamonkey / Lightning / Google Calendar and store it in a calendar of own choice...?
Hi there, i run Seamonkey 2.32, Lightning 3.7, Provider for Google Calendar 1.0.3 Lightbird 0.3.3. following request: I get an invitation to a meeting to my regular e-mail-address (x...@gmx.com). I can accept this invitation and it will be stored in a *LOCAL* calendar (moz-storage-calendar://) that its linked to my regular e-mail-address. But however - my REGULAR calendar is stored on Google and assigned to another address (x...@gmail.com). So the meeting should be stored in the Google calendar, that is connected via the Provider. If I copy the invitation to the google calendar, an additional invitations to all attendees will be sent, so that I can't use this workaround. Additional a simply forwarding of the invitation mail to my google address won't work also - and I am not able to add an attendee (my gmail address) to the once accepted meeting in the local calendar. Any ideas how to deal with tat request?? Best would be a popup while accepting the invitation, that gives me a choice of the calendar to use... Thaks i advance! ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

In the PrefBar settings, make sure you drag the User Agent setting into Enabled Items section. Then double-click on the User Agent, and you'll get a dialog box that allows you to choose whatever spoofs you want. One minor annoyance is that the defaults offered are several years old, and you'll need to update to settings that are relatively current. The useragentstring.com reference is definitely helpful.

Disadvantage where so much operation code is burned in It is difficult and or impossible add new features without creating a New Chip with new code burned in. Ahh, the topic of many long battles. The argument for RISC is: - if you analyze compiled code, most of it uses a small subset of a CISC instruction set, so why waste the silicon - optimize for blinding fast speed on the reduced instruction set and you come out ahead - I expect it's easier to do things like preemptive look ahead and pre-fetch with a simpler instruction set The argument for CISC is: - do it faster in hardware - write compilers that take advantage of the breadth of the instruction set There are certainly examples of very successful CPUs in both families - e.g. SPARC for RISC, Intel's entire line for CISC. I can also recall a couple of cases where very specific CISC instruction sets made a lot of difference: - the old DG Nova's macro-instructions looked very much like micro-instructions, with the ability to do multiple instructions in parallel (e.g., rotate, shift, and compare in one macro-instruction cycle) -- very useful for things like optical character recognition - at one firm, I personally helped develop a set of instructions specialized to high-speed bit twiddling in a radar processing system (back in the days when 4MIPS was blindingly fast, it was pretty much impossible to manipulate nanosecond pulse trains without specialized hardware) But I digress Miles Fidelman -- In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice.

How many desktop choices do you have for that Windows PC you buy? Best user for KDE: Windows users who want the easiest transition from XP or 7 but prefer the traditional desktop metaphor over the modern look and feel. Must be why I chose KDE when I built my first Linux PC using Red Hat, then Fedora, now openSUSE operating system. I have also used Gnome and XFCE, but I like KDE the best. -- Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/38.0a1 ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Also, the toolbar button for Adblock Plus disappears, and it is impossible to get to the interface for the filter lists. Somebody finally gave me the solution (on a web forum). The setting: dom.indexedDB.enabled has to be set to true now in order for Adblock Plus to work with SeaMonkey.

Re: OT: RISC vs. CISC [was: SeaMonkey 2.32 released]

System Code has to tell it practically everything Therefor size is large and Clunky and slow to load even with tons of system Ram But advantage is if you want add features without changing processors, you can. CISC - Complex Instruction Set Computing Most code to do everything is built into chip. System is small Compact and loads very fast even on slow systems. Disadvantage where so much operation code is burned in It is difficult and or impossible add new features without creating a New Chip with new code burned in. Ahh, the topic of many long battles. The argument for RISC is: - if you analyze compiled code, most of it uses a small subset of a CISC instruction set, so why waste the silicon - optimize for blinding fast speed on the reduced instruction set and you come out ahead - I expect it's easier to do things like preemptive look ahead and pre-fetch with a simpler instruction set The argument for CISC is: - do it faster in hardware - write compilers that take advantage of the breadth of the instruction set There are certainly examples of very successful CPUs in both families - e.g. SPARC for RISC, Intel's entire line for CISC. I can also recall a couple of cases where very specific CISC instruction sets made a lot of difference: - the old DG Nova's macro-instructions looked very much like micro-instructions, with the ability to do multiple instructions in parallel (e.g., rotate, shift, and compare in one macro-instruction cycle) -- very useful for things I think most modern CPU architectures these days support SIMD in one form or other. like optical character recognition - at one firm, I personally helped develop a set of instructions specialized to high-speed bit twiddling in a radar processing system (back in the days when 4MIPS was blindingly fast, it was pretty much impossible to manipulate nanosecond pulse trains without specialized hardware) All major CISC cpu families these days are internally RISC (e.g. x64-AMD from Intel and AMD) with a translation layer for CISC to RISC conversion. So in a sense RISC has won. Normally you can't access the underlying RISC core but at least one manufacturer (I think Taiwan or China based) made a x86 CPU chip where you could switch to the internal (and very different) RISC instruction set).
