KDE Gets Gecko/Mozilla Support
Sivar writes "Ars Technica reports that not only has the Gecko engine been ported to Konqueror, but the developers were able to finish the port in only four days during the week-long Akademy conference. With this port, Konqueror users now have a choice between two mature, powerful rendering engines."
.. which KDE offers are the so-called io_slaves, so I can access, for example, my server using fish://bla (an SSH slave), WebDAV using webdav://bla, and so on. Does GNOME have something similar? It would be nice to be able to use these slaves in Mozilla/Firefox.
Very OT.
Since when have pre-emptive invasions been legal?
When the resolutions are broken seven times over the span of 12 years. What's the point of a UN resolution if it's never enforced? Are you just going to sit around and go, "Oh, that Saddam!" for every violation? I guess Saddam killing his own people is something you are okay with tolerating. Look at how "effective" the UN is now, sitting down and sipping tea at lunch while people are being slaughtered in Sudan. And now terrorists have killed children in Russia. At some point, you kind of have to do something to stop the bad guys.
Since when has it been legal to round people up, label them illegal enemy combatants and throw them in jail without trial or access to a lawyer?
Because when you're captured in combat, you're an enemy combatant.
Who cares? China has been killing thousands upon thousands of their own people for decades. Should we invade? Oh wait, theres no oil in China. Guess thats a sure "no" from the Cheney camp.
:)
So, care to tell me where all the America-owned oilfields are in Iraq now? Oil should be pretty cheap for us now, right? Since we're just so controlling of all that oil, even though we don't own any, haven't gotten any, and haven't seen a single benefit from it. Zzzz. The Iraqis own their oil.
Hahaha!! Sudan has been in a civil war for over two decades. Reagan, Bush Sr, Clinton: all did absolutely nothing.
Just like the UN now. What's your point?
Bush Jr sends a tiny contingent of marines there who never touched the beach until French military secured the area for them. The French went through and brokered a peace deal while the marines ran right back to the boat a few weeks later.
Yeah, it's reeaall peaceful over there right now. "Disarm in a week, or else!" *deadline passes* "But we really meant it!"
Terrorists?
Yes, they were Muslim terrorists with indirect ties to Al-Queda.
Do you know what Russia has done to the Chechen people?
What this tells me is that you feel holding a FUCKING SCHOOL FULL OF CHILDREN HOSTAGE is a justifiable act of rebellion rather than an act of terrorism.
Gawd!!!! Its very apparent why the conservative media machine is so effective: its audience consist of idiots.
Don't you mean the liberal media machine? The one that falsely claimed and later retracted that people booed when Bush gave his best wishes to Clinton; the ones who have given a pass to all the Democratic 527 groups (including MoveOn.org; a member of the Kerry campaign is also a member of that group); the two CNN hosts who are now working for the Kerry campaign with nary a peep from the liberal press; the one that put out forged military documents? I could go on and on and on.
No your a "Prisoner of War" with is clearly defined in the Geneva Convention. Sadly, Bush keeps breaking those rules so in the future our soldiers captured in combat by enemy forces can look foward to being tortured and maimed. Thank you Bush.
Sometime, look up the definition of what constitutes an enemy combatant and get back to me. I'll let you figure it out.
Did you know that the Bush team has tried several times to make it possible for Americans to be labeled "Enemy Combatants". If that happens it will be possible for them to abduct people and lock them away forever. No trial, lawyers, or family notified. But who cares right?
Ah, nothing like a dose of liberal paranoia to make me smile.
Bush wont steer us wrong. He will only use that power for Good. Just remember this: even if Bush wins 4 more years he will be replaced. Who is to say the next president does not abuse that power?
The Checks and Balances system. Look it up sometime.
