J: I never watched more than a few minutes of [Bionic Woman]. Just didn't grab me, couldn't say why.

Me: Bad, cliched writing. Overwrought, cliched acting.
Me: It's the kind of TV show that good TV shows have running in the background to suggest TV to their audiences.

Interview with Nicholas Jitkoff, creator of...
Jitkoff: I'm inclined to encourage users to move over to the more stable and well supported alternatives like LaunchBar. Right now QS 54 (ed: the current build) accomplishes everything that I really need, the problem is stability, which for some reason most people seem to be ignoring.
Lifehacker: Right, in the end stability is what matters most. I have a MacBook Pro that—until your recent updates—crashed QS on a very regular basis, which was always heartbreaking. But I've seen major stability improvements since the updates, which has been fantastic.
Jitkoff: Basically, that branch is condemned to a long slow death. I just don't know if the experimental one will ever be up to snuff. Hence the recommendation of third party apps.
