  1. Odd Apple Support article title: "How to Perform a Safe Boot if FileVault 2 is enabled" Answer: Turn off FileVault 2 - j.mp/JJEQLe 11:51 AM May 25th via Reeder
  2. @PiratXMac The actual number of items has more of a bearing on performance than raw size. My 5TB is mostly video, so I only have ~50K tracks 12:32 PM May 23rd via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to PiratXMac
  3. @PiratXMacStartup up after a crash or system freeze can take a half-hour or more, however, as iTunes needs to check the database. 12:05 PM May 23rd via Twitterrific for Mac
  4. @PiratXMac Surprisingly not long… a few seconds, about the same as any other app. 12:04 PM May 23rd via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to PiratXMac
  5. My iTunes library just hit 5TB! jd1.ca/GqKl Hard to believe that I once wondered how I would ever manage to fill a 10MB hard drive 12:01 PM May 23rd via Twitterrific for Mac
  6. Making fun of someone for not knowing a common thing is much more boring than telling them about it for the first time j.mp/JXSnmr 2:06 PM May 14th via Reeder
  7. Victoria discovers dandelions instagr.am/p/KjJt4Dk8Nu/ 7:00 PM May 12th via Instagram
  8. @Leorhall Yeah, it's amazing Google *still* hasn't done that, esp with the 2.0 iPhone refresh. Following in Facebook's steps, it seems. 7:42 AM May 12th via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to Leorhall
  9. @Leorhall Sadly, nothing built-in for that. You need a third party app such as Web Albums. 7:32 AM May 12th via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to Leorhall
  10. So it turns out the font used for station names on the Toronto subway system is actually called "Toronto Subway" :) 6:58 AM May 12th via Twitterrific for Mac
  11. @rjstewart Yup. I've wondered for years why Apple doesn't use some type of QR code system, esp now that all current iOS devices have cameras 6:56 AM May 12th via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to rjstewart
  12. I'm at The Academy Of Spherical Arts (Toronto, ON) 4sq.com/IXA0Qs 3:17 PM May 5th via foursquare from Toronto, Ontario  
  13. "Supermoon" expected tonight; moon at its closest point and full at the same time j.mp/Ku1qdx 11:09 AM May 5th via Reeder
  14. "Hey Google — your G+ desperation is showing" (via @Pocket / @mathewi ) gigaom.com/2012/05/02/hey… 7:42 PM May 3rd via Read It Later Pro
  15. @rlangdon Used to be a nice little bar on the west side of the building where the Kitchen Table store is. Don't know if it's still there. 8:53 AM May 3rd via Twitterrific for Mac in reply to rlangdon
