Thank you LEM - WAS::: Re: Google Reader going away, now what?

Its often difficult to impossible to understand the reasoning behind a move like this from the outside, and since I do not provide support to LEM first hand, I realize exactly where my opinion weighs. I would ask that some form of a mailing list, such as Mailman, or something similar be retain

thanks for the advice, however it did not solve the problem. It is still dead. Absolutely nothing happens when I push the power button. Battery still indicates full charge. Any other advice? Thanks! On Thursday, March 14, 2013 10:48:03 AM UTC-7, spilrules wrote: > > I was copying a very large ba

Can't connect to TVGuide.com

As of yesterday I cannot connect to this site (204.153.26.245) using Safari 5.0.6, OS X 10.5.8, over Verizon's DSL. I cannot ping the site (10 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss). Traceroute ends at my router IP address. This is the only site I apparently cannot cont

What killed the G4 Powerbook, i.e. is it really dead?

I was copying a very large backup file from an external USB HD device and walked away from the computer. Upon returning a couple hours later, it was not running and I tried to remember if I had shut it off or not, pretty sure I had not. I pushed the start button and nothing happened, completely

Re: Google Reader going away, now what?

Understood. Yes, I read it like mail on one computer only. I can see how that's not ideal for many people. On Thursday, March 14, 2013 11:05:48 AM UTC-4, a1 wrote: > > I am not a real fan of the Thunderbird interface, either, and like > NetNewsWire, it is tethered to one computer, isn't it? >

I am not a real fan of the Thunderbird interface, either, and like NetNewsWire, it is tethered to one computer, isn't it? Here is a good article discussing the situation. Man is Google messing up. http://web.appstorm.net/roundups/rssfeeds/google-reader-is-dead-heres-what-you-need-to-replace-googl

Re: New Forums

I think the site move is great if it keeps the LEM info alive and is easier to manage. But the move to a forum is horrible! I also prefer to get all my emails in my email program, on my computer. I can filter, sort, delete and file to my hearts content. And easily find them again. With a forum, I

Google Reader going away, now what?

http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9237592/Google_Reader_several_other_services_axed Google Reader is probably my most used web app of all. Why would they do this? And what to do now with a PPC/Leopard setup? I don't really like NetNewsWire for a variety of reasons. I don't like the little ads
