@streakmachine There must be 3rd-party software to make it easier, else people wouldn't upload individual videos for thousands of classical music recordings…or they really are that altruistic.
@sumudu Heh. I doubt I'll have enough good stuff to make my supervisor say that.
Google Inbox in Chrome is damn near unusable. 600MB of memory for one tab is basically worse than Facebook.
Also, I need to get a damn move-on with this. Only have 20 days left :o Feels like yesterday that I was panicking about having a decent question. And now it sort of falls into perspective: getting LaTeX sorted out has probably bought me another 2 days' writing time, because there won't be much room human error on the typesetting side. At least, far less than if I were using InDesign.
Librarian was telling me just yesterday about one of the PhD students who "received a lot of comments about his footnotes and bibliography" during his defence session because, according to her, he'd typed out his bibliography by hand. I really don't understand why people put themselves through that kind of work when it can all be automated…
Footnotes count towards the final word count.
So far I've lost 1150 words to it, out of an absolute maximum of 7700 words. Eh.
@indigo Well there's that too. MBA with a Wacom would be a very powerful and portable setup…and I am considering replacing the Magic Trackpad with a drawing tablet.

@hazardwarning Well…you can't put your feet up in an auditorium, and decanting port would certainly be frowned upon, especially if you have no plans to share…
@indigo Nor I, though I regularly pass by an store. But just the thought of holding a device that's bigger than my MBA is enough to give me some idea, I think.
// @streakmachine
@indigo I've never had a device larger than 7" before, and that was the Nexus 7, so it'd be nice. 3D touch would be interesting, certainly, and I wonder if the pencil really is as amazingly accurate as everyone says.
// @streakmachine
@indigo It would, and it'd be easier to carry as well, for most people.
