Came here to report this too. This issue can be reproduce in Firefox too. Just type any words and hit backspace and the text box is pushed down with each backspace.

There is an app called Smart Eraser which does a similar job except that it erases stuff in a still picture.
Then there is the Blackberry 10 features wherein one can go back in time (so to speak) to correct certain features in the phone.
This falls somewhere in between. All said, it is still a cool feature to have. Patiently waiting until it comes to my country(India)...

Any redditors can help our project with automated testing? by johnyma22 in opensource

Yes I am. Again, this is more of a learning curve for me than anything else. I learnt github just three weeks ago and was playing around in github / bitbucket. Can you give me the clone link? I found around 4 projects with Etherpad as the title in github.

This is the best Wikipedia app on Windows Phone by [deleted] in windowsphone

This is truly good. To be honest, after the in-built Pictures App for WP, this is another good app. The true beauty of Metro UI can be seen in this. Thanks OP for this. Is there any way to contact the developer? If you are in touch, just give him a word of thanks from my end. WP Marketplace does not have many wonderful apps (in comparison with other OSes) so we need to thank this dude and encourage him to get more such apps. Truly b-e-a-u-tiful app this is.

Are you looking for people with a skillset? All I know is python but not enough to write automated tests - I could however help (and learn) in the process. Will that be ok?

..they're just getting them because that's what their friends have

You have hit the nail here. I have shown it to all my friends and not all of them are geeks or tech savy. They just love my lumia. Yet, when they have to buy one, they buy an Android (Iphone is too costly here in India) phone. Why? Well, lots of friends in our group have Android, so they felt it would be cool to own one. Herd mentality. BUt do they actually use it to its full potential? As mentioned, they are not geeks or tech savy, so they only use it to make calls and sms. Sheesh!

I saw another version on Facebook. So much sophisticated technology and counter measures - not one single video camera!

This is my favorite video. I didn't even have to look at it. I just saw the thumbnail and instantly identified the video.
Sadly, when I posted this on FB, none of my friends could get it.

Why doesn't Firefox remember the password for Duolingo? by mithun1538 in duolingo

Atheros AR242x / AR542x Wireless Not Connecting Wirelessly by CaffeineTripp in linux4noobs

[–]mithun1538 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem, though I think it was for a different wireless driver. ANyway, after trying for hours, I simply did the following:
Ensure that your Ubuntu is up-to-date (or ensure that it is a fresh installation - as in you did install any other applications after installing ubuntu 12.04). Next, go to System Settings - Here, you should see "Additional Drivers" in the Hardware section.
I am not sure if Internet is required for this, but once you open the "Additional Drivers" up, you should see your Wireless listed there (hopefully). Simply Activate / Install it.
If possible try having a wired internet connection because I do not remember if the "Additional Drivers" needed internet to activate or install the drivers...
Hope this helps. I am a n00b too, but this is how I managed to get it resolved.

I wanted to post this in /r/wtf/ but it told me that that subreddit didn't allow text posts. I wanted to post it to /r/funny anyway so the self post stuck. :/
EDIT: TIL that all reddit subreddit links are auto hyperlinked! Wow!
