Disable Space Switching - 10.5.2

The 10.5.2 version of OS X has a new preferences command for Spaces although tt's hidden and not available through the System Preferences.

What it does is allow one to Command-Tab to the app you want and create a new window in the current space. No more switching to the space that the app was originally launched in.

Here's the terminal command:

defaults write com.apple.Dock workspaces-auto-swoosh -bool NO

Then just restart the dock using:

killall Dock

If you need to back out your changes just change the first command from NO to a YES then restart the Dock once more.

Love Your Enemies

I saw this on a bumper sticker last night and considering the events around me at the moment it's appropriate.

"When Jesus said Love Your Enemies He probably meant Don't Kill Your Neighbors"

UAV's

UAV's or unmanned aerial vehicle, sometimes called an unmanned air-reconnaissance vehicle, is an unpiloted aircraft. UAVs can be remote controlled or fly autonomously based on pre-programmed flight plans or more complex dynamic automation systems.

Wired Science has a video about them which I've embedded below. About 1/2 through the video Wired talks to Adam Williams about his helicopoter UAV. It was surprise to see it as Adam worked at VA Software back in the day doing linear video editing software.
