Mozilla.org Launches Mozilla 1.3

theBrownfury writes "Mozilla 1.3 is out and about. New to this version are features like image auto sizing, bayesian junk-mail filtering, dynamic profile switching, about:config for a pretty view into all of Mozilla's "secret" settings, an initial version of Midas for rich text editing, and a lot of other fixes for performance, standards compliance and site compatability. Also with 1.3 Mozilla is now applying machine learning to improve the autocomplete feature. Mozilla 1.3 is now the official stable release from mozilla.org. Users of all previous versions should upgrade to 1.3 for the latest in features and stability. More info at the 1.3 release page and discussions at mozillaZine.org."

    i'm sorry... what? could you explain how a pre-compiled binary executes any faster than an identical user-compiled binary? if you're compiling for the same arcitecture with the same library base as the disributed-binary at compile time, it will be identical.

  3. OT: NVidia by Fryed · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Speaking of nvidia, has anyone been able to download the latest Win9x drivers from there? (Yes, I know, I'm the devil for using Windows, etc)

    I've been trying to upgrade to the latest drivers, but it seems that all of their download sites have gone on spring break or something. I'm not having problems connecting to any other site, and this happens no matter what browser I'm using (Moz 1.1, 1.3, IE 6) Anyone else experiencing a similar problem?

    the releases after 1.0 maybe Mozilla wouldn't of taken 5 years and IE would have some type of competition.

    It is interesting to note the eight of the current top ten hits are people telling you to make this search.

    Napoleon was from Corsica and spent the early years of his life fighting against the French. Sure, he had amazing victories later on under the French flag, but he was eventually beaten by none other than the French! I believe that they're one of the only countries to lose even when they win in a non-civil war.

    How is that funny ? That's off-topic, pathetic and only shows how little history you know.

    How convenient it is to forget Lafayette, to forget that France used its UN veto in favor of the US in the past (Nicaragua anyone), to forget that French intelligence warned the US of Al Quaeda actions before 9/11, to forget that the US (Rumsfeld himself) gave weapons of mass destruction to Irak, to forget that the USA shot their French allies in the back a couple of times already (Suez anyone, a US veto at the UN...).

    How convenient it is to dismiss the French army because the top-brass (Petain in particular) fucked-up in the 1930's and thought the Maginot line was enough, and because France doesn't spend trillion dollars on its defense. See for example http://www.what-if-you.com/ww2memorial/wwii__chapt er_5.htm
    for more information on the French defeat in 1939. Note that sentence: "The army that had been at the end of the First World War indisputably the greatest in the world". Who do you think this is refering to ?

    How convenient it is to expect allies to always stand behind you, those allies that learned about the cost and stupidity of warthe hard way in good part thanks to the US and Russia (how many US troups died in WWII, how many Russians ?).

    How convenient it is to make fun of your allies when they don't agree with you, while you do nothing to help (Bush's religious attitude doesn't go well in countries that learned something about religion's dangers, Bush unilateralism in revoking international treaties that he didn't like, etc.).

    How convenient it is to hate the French and do everything to suck up to Israel, a country that deliberately killed US soldiers (USS Liberty, do a google search on that) and that complies even less with UN resolutions than Irak. God, they must be good those French for you to hate them that much.

    How convenient. How blind. How stupid. How redneck. How republican. (How national socialist ?)

    WTF does this have to do with a new Mozilla release? There are other forums where you can spread nationalist hatred.
