Least intrusive way to install Ruby 1.9 on a borrowed MacBook? You could also use a virtual machine, install ruby there, and once you're done, just delete it. |

Can two different phone numbers be used to receive voice and text on one iPhone? Google Voice probably won't work, unless you port all your numbers to it somehow. It can do one number -> rings multiple phones easily, but multiple numbers -> rings one phone is harder since they need to be in control of all the numbers, and idk if they let you port more than one. |

Set F7/F8/F9 to perform iTunes functions like built-in keyboard I'm sure this works, but isn't there a simpler solution? I really just want the keyboard shortcut if possible... |

X11 periodically losing focus @EirNym: I use password-based authentication (can't change that unfortunately, I'm not administering the server) |

X11 periodically losing focus @EirNym: yes, I know, but still, sometimes I just need the X interface / it is more convenient... I get that there are alternatives but I'd like this to work since it requires the least set up (it's not only about firefox). |

X11 periodically losing focus @EirNym, no, the point is I want to run say firefox on the remote server |

X11 periodically losing focus @EirNym: I am aware of those, but the thing is sometimes I need to run other (graphical) programs over SSH as well, so it'd be more convenient if I could just get this fixed for all X11 apps. |

X11 periodically losing focus @bispymusic: it's much more convenient doing it this way, because I can just ssh in once and then launch multiple terminals on the machine. To use Terminal.app for this I'd have to open multiple ssh connections |

Why does File:/// crash my app? @kojiro: type it into Spotlight, and it crashes the bar. Yes, not quite a kernel panic, but severe enough to warrant "system" imo. |

Why does File:/// crash my app? @kojiro: the app. In case of programs like Chrome or text editors, this is a VERY severe bug, seeing as you lose all work. |

Simple scanning to PDF @bmike: It's an Epson Perfection V30. It does have a button for scanning to PDF; however, all the button does is open up Image Capture. (In Windows, with the Epson driver installed, it does scan to PDF though, but you need their software which is not available for Mac AFAIK) |

Disable cross-screen shadows I know why it happens / how it's coded, that's not the point... I don't know of / think there is a way to make a dead zone. |

iTunes 11 does not record Play Counts anymore? I have the same problem, it doesn't work with crossfade on. |

White on black in TextEdit Yea, I meant it works (even though the color picker doesn't show any visual feedback, the actual window color changes), but setting it as default doesn't. |

White on black in TextEdit Cool, any way to set that as default? I tried going through the preferences but the font picker seems broken (i.e. the colors don't update or anything, and when I reopen TextEdit it's black on white again). |

How to force Mac OS X ML not to auto connect to Wi-Fi That sounds like you want chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/session-manager/… |

How to force Mac OS X ML not to auto connect to Wi-Fi You need hundreds of opened but useless tabs? That sounds like a problem with your work style, more than a problem with how OS X / Chrome works. Do you want bookmarks instead? And how would turning off WiFi help? You'd still have to open Chrome before clicking on the WiFi name, which comes down to turning the WiFi on... |
