Gmail Design change Big Fail!

Here is what is saw in one of my gmail accounts (Ninja theme):

Gmail Design Change for the Ninja Theme seems to add a border-right attribute and border-bottom attribute to the unread emails.

It seems that they are still trying to do some design changes. The culprit seems to be the css border settings for the following: class=”zA zE” id=”:pn”

How to Backup and Launch your custom EC2 Ubuntu machine from S3?

First of all why would you want to do that? For many many reasons. One of the reasons I have was to bring up a machine every night which had all the code that I need to import and translate games. And I needed a dedicated machine with the base EC2 instance m1.small horsepower. I know of people who bring up 20-50 instances every night to do some heavy weight data processing before shutting down and killing those instances.

Here is what I would do:

sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.backup
sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list

Here is the file content of sources.list:

deb http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic main universe
deb-src http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic main universe
