Mozilla Branches For 1.0 RC1

At the end of last month, the Mozilla Project closed the tree for what will become Mozilla 1.0. Now jkeiser writes "Mozilla has branched for 1.0 RC1, which is the first last step to a final Mozilla 1.0! Mozilla has spent four long years getting the browser standards-compliant, fast and solid. Cross your fingers for a rockin' final release around the corner." Reader whovian points to the just-modified roadmap, too.

Hey! What are you?? An idiot?

Version numbers don't mean shit. The fact is that Mozilla is an amazing feat done in four years. It is both standards compliant (which IE is not!) and has much more functionality (skinning and tabs to name a few!) than IE!

So get your facts right before spouting nonsense on Slashdot!!!

What are you, some kind of mari-juana smoking hippie? I say we use the rights given to us by the Second Amendment of the Constitution of the United States to blow the heads off of you god-damned sons of bitches! There's enough decadence in society with Elizabeth Taylor, the harlot, running around. A floozy, she is. And it's all these movie stars' fault, bashing this liberal scum into the heads of our children like morality and virtue are sins! I never! Such snot-noses kids are today. When I was a boy, I had nothing but 600 acres of farmland, and what do kids have today? Tele-vision. High-powered radios. Computers. They don't know what it means to have responsibilities! To work! To enjoy the beauty of nature! No, they sit in their expensive houses, while their idiotic twit parents raise them to be utter irresponsible fools. They get sent off to college and have sex before marriage! They even go so far as to denounce Lord Christ our Savior. I don't know where it all went wrong, but society is ruined. Just ruined. The damned hippies, the damned Baby Boomers, I'm telling you, they should all be shot. Point-blank, in the head. That's the Second Amendment for you. Long live the NRA. May you all burn in Hell.

/dev/null & /dev/zero

Er... why don't you su cp /dev/null /etc/passwd and then tell me the difference between /dev/null and /dev/zero.. thanks!

Er... why don't you su cp /dev/null /etc/passwd and then tell me the difference between /dev/null and /dev/zero.. thanks!

Not knowing the difference, I tried this (with a file called "~/test", *not* /etc/passwd ;-)

using /dev/zero turned it into a 27MB file as quick as I can say ^c
using /dev/null resulted in a blank file as quick as my computer can say [darby@localhost darby]$

So in summary, your (original) method would successfully erase the specified binaries leaving an empty file of the same name as well as the rest of the (now useless) files associated with those applications (I know you were making a joke), whereas the two retarded AC's who tried to correct you would have succeeded in filling their partitions (and probably their entire hard drives since anyone dumb enough to incorrectly correct a correct person is probably dumb enough to use only one partition).

The lesson for today is an old one:
"It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt" --someone other than me originally

To propagate the religious 'theme'.

You can mod the truth down, even mark it "Troll," but you can never change it.

Oh yeah, and Netscape sucks.

I didn't know homosexuality was around back in '32. I always assumed it was a liberal 'lifestyle choice' made possible during the acid-soaked years of flower-power.

Anyone who claims to be pathologically homosexual is a LIER. Queers are queers because they CHOOSE to be. Therefore, we are fully within our rights to beat and murder them.

How to block the ads Slashdot forces you to watch

For Windows 98/ME/2000/XP users:

Open c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts in Notepad. Go very bottom and add

"127.0.0.1 images.slashdot.org"

Save the file and restart your browser.

I am working on a solution for linux/unix.

Tell these trolls at slashdot to stop making you pay for their paper thin/biased content.
