BPay View feedback | Emacs Tragic
http://emacstragic.net/bpay-view-feedback
Jason Lewis' blog. While I think NetBank is great, the BPayView part seriously lets it down. I tweeted my feelings about this and you asked for feedback, so here it is:. 2 It auto archives bills after 18 months. This should be at least 2 years if not 7 in my opinion. 3 if you open a bill and try to save the PDF, the PDF is not named something sensible so you can quickly save it and move on to the next bill, making saving bills a tiresome slow process. 90 Percent of Everything is Crap.

Jason Lewis' blog. I wrote to Turnbull to complain about the lack of NBN. Here is his reply. After traveling to New Zealand for #lca2015 and experiencing fibre to the home at my friends house, I decided to write to Malcolm Turnbull to express my concern about the slow rollout of the NBN in Australia. He actually personally replied directly to my email only 4 hours later. In the interest of openness I am putting the whole email below. I have rearranged it to fix the topposting. To: Turnbull, Malcolm (MP).

Jason Lewis' blog. I have written about about using emacs in cygwin. And how to launch emacs from cygwin. But I had some problems with the batch file approach in that emacs’ path differ from bash’s. Then ack. Fails to work from within emacs which makes me sad. After googling around a bit, I saw a few suggestion. That trie to fix the path in emacs, but I think a better approach is to launch emacs from within bash so it inherits the bash environment. Here is my attempt using vbscript:. Clock Part 2 →.
