@ Derivatize: WTF?
Authored by: luomat on Dec 07, '06 08:19:53AM

Derivatize: You say this is a bad hint because it spreads misinformation, and then you reiterate exactly what the hint and robg's comments are about it.

What were you trying to say and how were you trying to defend your accusations by validating what had already been said?

The quality of hints on this website have been going downhill lately...

Funny I was thinking the same thing about the comments.

@ Derivatize: WTF?
Authored by: Anonymous on Dec 07, '06 08:47:49AM
You understand safe sleep, and robg understands safe sleep, and many of the comment posters here understand safe sleep, but mark_hunte seems to not understand. At least from the wording of his comment, he implies that by not "trusting" the backup battery, he would have to restart if his laptop lost power unless he enters safe sleep directly. But this is not necessary. It is still disappointing to read wrong hints like this being published on big time websites even though robg corrects the misconception at the end.

It's a good thing we have the comments to set people straight. Really, stuff like insinuation of bugs in QuickTime, improper use of ColorSync profiles, and putting tape on all of your CDs? WTF indeed.
