I was at a presentation yesterday evening about google drive, and tried it out on my OI environment today. It seems that not having Chrome on OI, or the special Google Drive software GDrive, limits the experience significantly.. Lots of Drive Apps require Chrome and those that do sort of work

That all might be the case but I happen to like a lot of the google services! And their integration too. If you differ, use other services ;) Sent from my BlackBerry® smartphone ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org

Chrome/Chromium is a better browser than Firefox in essentially every single way. Promoting a better browser is not shameful, it's good customer service. Chromium is fully open source. The difference is that Google Chrome is a customized Chromium build. The same as the build on Ubuntu is

Yeah, my bad. I was only referring to the within Chrome part, rather than their actual dropping of supported platforms. They've dropped support for all mobile everything as well. But, they're not updating the Linux version in Chrome either. It's not that Adobe is only updating for Chrome,

I have both the sparsebundle size and the ZFS FS set. So the FS was created with a quota of 300GB and the sparsebundle then created in there with 300GB. Unless you're backing up multiple Macs, don't use dedup, the performance hit you'll take will be huge after a few months unless you've got an

That IS unfortunate, but sensible. Things are shitty now. You need to not trust people. I don't trust code I either can't see, or in the case of Windows, know that they have more to lose than they have to gain by fucking me over. On Aug 15, 2012 10:02 PM, Jerry Kemp sun.mail.lis...@oryx.cc wrote:
