Transmit

Cbx322 commented on 29 Apr 2010

Not working with 64-bit kernel!

see: http://www.panic.com/transmit/support.html

Why doesn't Transmit Disk work with a 64-bit kernel?
It's complicated. But in the meantime, unless you're on Snow Leopard Server, we'd bet donuts that you do not need to be booting a 64-bit kernel. 64-bit applications do not require a 64-bit kernel. Even on a 32-bit kernel, lots of apps, including Transmit 4, and almost all of Mac OS X, will be running 64-bit, with all the advantages. That's why 32-bit kernel is the default. Switch back for an instant fix.

Firefox

cbx322 reviewed on 04 Jul 2009

Slower than Safari, acid3 test scores only at 93/100, Safari: 100/100. Not usable in multilingual environments, each language requires a different application.

ST00P!D M0NK3Y:

Don't be personal!

It is my personal rating I have my reasons for.

Firefox is unusable in our computer network since we run educational language services offered to students speaking different languages. It is impossible to install Firefox for all languages in our computer network, at least I did not find a solution. Btw, this rules against Apple's programming guide lines. Unfortunately, I have been waiting since version 1 for a fully localized version and 3.5 still comes as "one app one language" which makes me to give the worst rating possible.

Yrs ago, they closed the bugreport with closed, won't fix. So they simply won't do it.

Come on, one star for something that's even not usuable? One star for being against Apple's programming guidlines? Why isn't it possible to give minus-points?

Sure, but I have been waiting for yrs to get multilingual support, opened bugreports, talked to devs. And now it is time to make my opinion public. How nice would that be, a single version which contains all languages? One install and everyone could switch their useraccount to their spoken language and Firefox will automatically show up in the chosen language.

PPC is still officially supported and there a still several PPC machines out there, think of Quad Core with 16 GB of RAM ... or even Xserve. It's very silly to drop PPC support since still not all Mac-software is Intel compatible.

If you'd like to run into expiration dates and be forced to update and to wait for a new version which is not available...

It's a no go.

1Password

cbx322 commented on 05 Feb 2008

Just keep in mind, that important passwords, i.e. banking accounts should never be stored on a computer.

Also you must trust the developer not to phish your passwords, since the source is not opensource, but that would just add another trustworthy company to the list of Apple Computer Inc...

Image Tricks Lite

The installer is dumb. You can only install as administrator. You can choose an install-location in the installer, but it does not let you choose your homefolder, i.e. ~/Applications. This is not the way of Apple-Guide-Lines. There is no reason why a local user shouldn't be able to install this app into their homefolder only.
