Diereses prevent diphthongs; support diacritics awareness

--

Hi. My name is Daniel.

I'm mostly active on Ask Different, where I'm now a moderatorâ—†, but I sometimes visit some other Stack Exchange sites (more to read than anything else).

I first got into computers in 1982, and learned to program on an Apple //+. Switched to Mac in 2003. I'm not a computer pro; it's just a hobby. I hope any of my questions or answers are helpful.

comment Is there a way to make Photostream take up less space on an iPad without turning it off entirely?
But if it does that, it defeats the purpose of deleting to save space. While I'd love for this solution to work, it sounds like it won't accomplish what I'm hoping for, which is freeing up space on the iPad.

If you delete photos from Photostream, does that mean that Photostream will hold less than the latest 1000 photos, or that they are replaced by other photos?

Bah. The problem seems to be back (less frequent, but still present) despite this fix.

FWIW, I had this problem long before Mountain Lion.

What do you mean "go into your documents"? How does the user do this? Using what program?

comment Has anyone tried putting Ubuntu on the new retina MacBook Pro?
You've posted this as an answer, which is only for things that directly answer the question asked. Answers on Ask Different need to be more than just a link. It's okay to include a link, but please summarize or excerpt it in the answer. The idea is to make the answer stand alone.

comment Is the increased weight of the ipad 4 worth the retina screen, in comparison to the ipad mini?
"Worth it" is a difficult question — what's "worth it" to one person is not for another.

comment When is a MacBook Pro considered at 'end of life' and in need of replacement?
Don't know anything about the corporate scenario, but my inlaws are just now talking about replacing their 2005 iMac (and only because they can't get the latest version of Turbo Tax for it). I still use my 2003 eMac for a variety of purposes.

Information needed to answer a question should be contained in the question, not in tags. Tags are for filtering. Period.

comment How to invoke navigation on Google maps using Siri?
I've revived an old iPhone running iOS 5, but it's not a 4S so no Siri.

comment Starting iOS development. What phone should I buy?
If you want advice about what hardware has particular features or can accomplish particular tasks and can ask the question in a way likely to be helpful both now and in the future, you may ask that here, but questions about what you should buy ("let's go shopping") are off-topic.

I'll admit I don't see a lot of iBooks in circulation anymore.
