IP 4.5 (Mac OS X)

"4.5" is an overstatement  

It takes up too much space in the menubar, 'WAN ip' is not great usage ('external ip' is better). Of course, whatismyip.com = 216.51.232.100 = ns100.fastdnsservers.com, so it's exactly the same as using curl. It somehow also looks up google.com (ipv4 and ipv6), which is, at least, suspect. My hostname and lo0 address shouldn't be displayed either. And it doesn't say the ip I usually want, which is my upstream ip (ifconfig is better for this) to determine how much I'm lagging.

I also don't think the version number should be above 1.5. [alert admin]

SafariCookieCutter 1.3 (Mac OS X)

Cookie Whitelist  

I'm just looking for a cookie manager that will allow me to whitelist some cookies so I don't have to look at them again. I *wish* safari could sort by "date created", which would make this easier (so I can scroll past the ones I've allowed and just look at the rest). [alert admin]

FireStarter FX 1.0b6 (Mac OS X)

Hum.  

This is the only app for OSX which has a feature to make raw images, yet when I try to rip with the checkbox checked, it crashes. On further investigation, cdrdao gives "Msf.cc:36: failed assertion `sec >= 0 && sec < 60'" when I try to use --read-raw [alert admin]

eMail Verifier 1.3 (Mac OS 9)

qmail  

qmail will not work, since the qmail-smtpd doesn't know anything about the users that exist on the machine, so can't tell you anything about if the user exists or not. I consider this a bug in qmail, since bounces will be much messier (since the bounce needs to come out of my computer, instead of upstream server/malicious user). [alert admin]

SubRosaSoft GlobalTraceRoute 1.1 (Mac OS X)

Wrong addresses  

It gives the wrong addresses for 203.215.248.255, 202.153.102.193,202.84.143.213 (all milton in NSW, though milton appears to be in queensland anyway). I don't see where canberra and mclean, virginia come from, since the next addy is owned by hong kong again. [alert admin]

piX 1.0 (Mac OS X)

Slow.  

and pi_css5 does 131072 digits in under 5 seconds (and 2.89 of cpu time). You do not need to sacrifice that much cpu time to keep the UI responding. It would also be nice to see if not different algorithms, different ways to format output (so you can, say, group decimal places into 10s). [alert admin]

MacRoman  

The character set used is MacRoman, as ASCII is only defined between 0 and 127. Displaying 30 characters at a time also misses the point, as ASCII is nicely defined into four chunks of 32. And character sets are 0-based, even if 0 is only NUL. It should show what the characters mean if they don't print, even, perhaps, for space. And then, if it supports MacRoman, it should support other character sets (iso-latin-1 and windows-whatever, perhaps). It's also horribly slow, nothing I couldn't have in a text file, and I use 'man ascii' anyway. [alert admin]

Hacker Translator 1.01 (Mac OS X)

1: ASCII, like…  

a real hacker (this means no dagger, yen, or flipped !). 2: Option for 'strictness' (strictly letters-to-numbers). 3: A font that shows zero properly. 4: elite -> leet -> 1337, //, /, |2, and stuff like that if you're desperate. [alert admin]

MacMP3Gain 1.4 (Mac OS X)

It's much safer…  

(for your ears) to keep everything maxed so that, say, websites playing random noise can't blast your ears off. It's also a lot better if your computer's volume is capped, so that you get less noise after the amp. The next thing I need to do is find where to stuff a resistor in my amp. And, usually, 0 dB is the maximum and everything else is negative, but who knows? [alert admin]

Haxial Calculator 0.904 (Mac OS 9, Mac OS X)

Yes, the 5000…  

decimal places (5001 digits) of pi are correct. Except that haxial stops at ...4132604721, and the next 10 digits are ...5695162396..., so it should round that up (or add more digits until it only rounds down). The lack of functions for it limits its use, though. I mean, does anyone need 1+1 to be accurate to10000 digits? Except for pi and e, everything you could possibly produce could be stored as a big fraction. Which would, actually, be a lot more useful. sin, cos and tan would help, though ;) [alert admin]

HELLLLOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! .sit ??? *sigh*  

There are a few reasons one might want to stuff to .sit. 1. You don't need Stuffit 7/8/whatever to unstuff, which means you can unstuff it on a clean 10.1.5 system. 2. People might want to unstuff on OS9/8/7, to see what's there/for development/whatever. 3. .sitx takes too long to compress (you could try 'faster compression', but that defeats the point somewhat). 4. You have stuffit deluxe 6.5, and don't want to pay to upgrade (I'm not sure about…

GPL  

Actually, the GPL mostly states that, basically, the source code must be included with the software, or available free. GPL software can be sold, I believe, but that may depend on other restrictions the programmers decide on.

Is this tip correct?  

Because of the way LCDs work, you can make 'on' either black or white. Computers typically make it black (the screen is black when your LCD is off). You could just look at the power consumption to find out, but I doubt that turning pixels on or off takes much power at all. The thing likely taking up 99% of the power is the backlight, not the pixels, so turning the backlight off (or putting it…
