Anyone know if there's a tablet PC with a decent onscreen keyboard, a large screen, decent battery life, supports Ubuntu, and is fairly lightweight?

Mostly all day with my web development, I am...

Exactly. That's what I want. I click inside the desktop pager to get a new workspace, and get an exclusive set of desktop icons -- not just an exclusive set of windows.

The only way I can see to...

I'm a web developer and it would really help me a great deal if I could click the Desktop Pager control and get an exclusive set of desktop icons for each. Just having exclusive windows isn't cutting...

I found something interesting. Perhaps you all can pick up the pieces from here and get it to work completely?

I did this at command line:

xhost +

I then did the 'gksudo -u skype...

I'm interested in something like that because the current paradigm of...

I want to jail Skype into its own process and not the one I login with. That way, if a hacker breaks in, it's limited to this process and only the limited functionality that that user account has.

I've got 2 blades available to me on the Internet that I can reboot, reformat, etc. I want to build them into a single Ubuntu Linux OS clustered together, and then open up multiple VMs inside that....

Every night, instead of turning my laptop off, I usually do CTRL+ALT+F1 and then turn off the laptop display with Fn+F6. This gives me the ability to hop on rapidly in emergencies. I tried suspend,...

Being on Freelancer Retainer -- The Importance of Project Management
Being on retainer is no easy task. I got burned on this twice before, so I've gotten better at this on the third time around, at...

Tax Time

Well, it was tax season again, and I was in for a shock. First, I knew 2009 was a bad year, but I had no idea it was far worse than my 2008 year because, well, I wasn't keeping track. I...

Yes, I've been planning that for awhile. I needed to get it under a different company name than my own so as not to upset my current clientele, and use a pseudonym. Just today I found who to partner...

Well, it finally has happened for me. I got picked up by some affiliate marketers to work on a corp-to-corp subcontractor indefinite retainer for a nice sum each month, plus commission on some of the...

I found yet another solution. This is really cool and can be used for all kinds of things, including as a wrapper to any website, including a stock ticker, Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, and many more...

I'm a freelance web developer who likes to look at a fireplace occasionally. Unfortunately I don't have one. It would be nice to have one on my desktop because I have a dual-screen monitor...

The only thing I found was a SaaS service called worldlingo.com. You pay an annual fee and then it will translate thousands of passages of text for you per month. It's decently priced for what it...

Can anyone recommend some open source language translation projects that translate into a given language and then back? For instance, through code (I use PHP programming language) I can feed it a...

Today I just ended a relationship with a wacky client out of NYC. He kept going on and on for a few weeks with me in an email about how he appreciated my opinions of his project, had angel investment...

All I want to do is format it, put Ubuntu on it, figure out how to give it an on-screen 102 key keyboard, and write PHP code in gEdit with it while on the road, viewing pages in Firefox, and then...

No Javascript?
The other day I actually encountered a PHP developer who refused to learn how to do cross-platform XHTML/CSS, and refused to learn Javascript. He said, "I remain strictly a PHP...

Dealing with the PHP MVC Frameworks

I read something interesting in a forum about a new approach to doing PHP coding, and I thought it was clever. You might be able to apply it to your own...

My wife wants me to come up with a Linux script or program that can convert a PDF file into an audio MP3 that she can study while in her car or while working out.

Anyone got a Perl, Bash, or other...

Thanks, for this! :)

I'll have to check how far back this __autoload() and/or other loading mechanisms work because I want to use my framework on any PHP5 installation. There's still a lot of 5.2...

Here's my latest PDO wrapper. It's short and simple. If you already know the PDO API, it adds just 3 very useful functions (class methods, actually) on top of that: convertRows(), createInsert(), and...
