After the presentation of the Finder, after the installation and the management of the applications, here is the third episode of our series dedicated to System preferences. Another episode a little long, but there's a lot to talk about.
Month: November 2009
Fraternal confrontation
A meeting at the end of the afternoon to discuss, in a fraternal way, the flu and the vaccine.
Information on the organisation of vaccination, the management of our patients is detailed…..
-and then by the way, you recommend this vaccine?
-Ho that no, all for a flu. I won't let myself be manipulated!
I see red. I oscillate between disbelief of what I have just heard from a professional and the high likelihood of having a trouble hearing brutal.
Google Chrome OS on Mac
MacStyle publishes an article about the installation of Google's operating system presented last week. The installation goes through the use of a virtualization software and Anthony describes the steps for VirtualBox (free Sun software).
For those who use other software (like me;-)), I refer you to the excellent comments (including some itoubib…) for installation under Parallels Desktop or VMWare Fusion.
At home it works perfectly. Be careful, however, to configure the network of your virtualization software according to the instructions given.

Side effects of vaccines
This is a topical issue. Between the hazardous communication of the Ministry of Health and the media that will jump on all the slightest facts that could scare the population (and thus make the ratings), it is difficult to see clearly.
Fortunately, a recent study is a rigorous way to clarify how to deal with the side effects of vaccination. Of course, conspiracy enthusiasts will doubt: the odds of the timing of the publication of this study at a time when pandemic vaccines are being challenged. I leave them to their delusions.
The switcher's backpacker: Applications
The sequel to our series on how to switch serenely. After detailing in the previous tutorial the basic functions of the Finder, we will see today how to install, uninstall and launch the programs under Mac OS.
Lady X and her vaccine voucher
Ms. X received a vaccination voucher for H1N1 flu. For his son. But not for his daughter. Nor for her for that matter.
She hesitates, if the good ones arrive away from each other, she will have to go three times in the center of which she depends? Maybe she'll wait until she gets all the family vouchers. But good the epidemic is advancing.
A matter of trust
I'm upset.
And it is not the disastrous communication of our ministry that will improve our days.
Upset to fight the fear either of the H1N1 flu or its terrible vaccine, all in a media circus-political cacophony that nothing seems to want to stop.
Mac OS: Windows before
Because a Mac is above all an operating system, it seemed logical to me to continue the series "The Backpacker of the Switcher" by a presentation of Mac OS.
At the time when PC users were still at the MS-DOS command line, Apple had already released its first Macintosh to which it had backed up an appendage: the mouse. The first windowed operating system was born, it was called Mac OS.
Get rid of Flash
An article published on the excellent site MacStyle.fr in order to get rid of flash animations in Safari while offering an even better alternative.

Doctor, I have angina…..
Today I see a patient on the move in my area.
-Doctor, I have angina!
-Agree….. Fever, sore throat???
-Yes as usual. So I took the antibiotics that my doctor usually gives me, amoxicillin.
-Ha yes, perfect, so we were able to select some resistant germs. We're going to have a little fun!!!
– ………………….
-Come by, please sit down.
Examination of the oral cavity, no visible tonsils, nothing, nada.
-You had your tonsils operated, right?
-Yes, a long time ago.
-so you do not have angina!
– ………………. (A silence supported by a suspicious look)
-Angina is tonsillitis (infection of the tonsils). Some authors talk about angina for pharyngitis, but in any case do not treat with antibiotics.
– …………….
Short! You have a rhino-pharyngitis, no antibiotics, a mouthwash and daily nose washes and it's going to be fine.
-Well, I'll have to tell that to my doctor!
Here, I just made a friend me…..
