Mozilla 1.6 Beta Released

Sick Boy writes "As reported on Mozillazine, the Mozilla Foundation today released Mozilla 1.6 Beta. This latest milestone adds support for NTLM authentication on all platforms and improves the implementation on Windows. The automatic page translation feature has been restored (now powered by Google Language Tools) and a new version of ChatZilla, 0.9.48, is now included. In addition, several security and crash bugs have been fixed during the beta release cycle. Builds can be downloaded from the Mozilla Releases page or directly from the mozilla1.6b directory on ftp.mozilla.org. The Mozilla 1.6 Beta Release Notes have more detailed information about what's new and known issues to watch out for."

Could this release be the reason why I can't download themer for firebird?

By the way is it just my set-up or does the new firebird(nightly, yes I know it's a nightly) download manager keep cutting out midway through a download, claiming it has in fact finsihed the download?

The 'Matrix' story stolen from Sophia Stewart?

"Baudrillard's vision reminded me of another dystopian prophecy from the beginning of the twentieth century, E. M. Forster's chilling [1909] tale "The Machine Stops." The story is about a future world of billions of people, each of whom lives in a comfortable multimedia chamber that delivers necessities automatically, dispenses of wastes, and links everyone in the world into marvelously stimulating web of conversations. The only problem is that people long ago forgot that they were living in a machine."

I think this cyclic nature of Slashdot is interesting - initially someone comes up with some mildly interesting (but usually verbatim from the /. party manual) comment, this post gets +5 whatever, and then others repeat this comment, or it's spirit, in the hope of catching some of the magic. Intersperse this with trolls, zealots and pedants, spiced with plenty of inane comments, and only the very occasional interesting, original post.

Of course, despite this, it's a wonderful time sink in which to soak up untold hours...
