  1. @dnsimple Cool. Is it $2 per month per domain that uses e-mail forwarding?
  2. Easiest way to let someone SSH into your laptop without fiddling with router configurations?
  3. @dnsimple Oooh, of course! Yeah, makes a lot of sense. But maybe you should mention that on the page so people understand it.
  4. @dnsimple Oooh, nice!! :) OK, question: it says I should enter ".*" to forward all adresses— is that right? Why the period?
  5. @dnsimple Is there a beta one could opt in to for the new e-mail feature that would let you forward mail without setting up Google Apps? :)

  7. Of all things, I would not have expected fucking STORAGE OF FILES to be this difficult to get right
  8. Oh now it just says "Unable to sync". Sigh, why did I uninstall Dropbox. (Oh I remember, because it randomly deleted a dozen of my files.)
  9. Every time I open my laptop Google Drive has more files to sync than the previous time. It’s using 125% CPU and My MBA is breathing heavily.
  10. @lbergen The reason I asked was because I was getting like 5/0.5 and I was wondering if that was normal
  11. @lbergen WOW! I have 34/25 now!! Hahahahaha this is awesome
  12. @lbergen Cool! Wait lemme check again
  13. @sstephenson Wow I assumed that would just insert newlines but I see now it actually works for pressing return in general! AWESOME THANKS :D

  15. When the person you have a secret crush on says "wait, aren't you and I a couple?" and you're like "oh". Link to Asperger's self-evaluation?
  16. @sstephenson YES!! :D Wow, you just improved my quality of life by like 2x!! What about Ctrl+m for return? Don't tell me that's possible too
