True that. I haven't used Adblock in years since I found about NoScript.
The only problem with NoScript that I've found (I guess it's not really a problem) is that it's nearly impossible to teach someone how to use it if they're a novice computer user. No, it's completely impossible. AdBlock's more of a "set it and forget it" kind of thing, and I can understand how the novice would like such a thing.
You know, I've always wondered about the Herman Miller "Aeron" chair (now available in "True Black!") -- isn't NPR not supposed to have sponsors?:\ How does this get around that?
Then load up one window in Incognito mode, and another window that's not. I really don't know what you're complaining about.:\
If you're looking for absolute privacy, don't use the web. Otherwise, Incognito-mode is about as good as it gets (just remember to clear out your Flash cookies from time to time, the browser doesn't control those).
I really hate responding to a troll, but you need to do some serious research. The kind of viewpoint you hold is poisonous in its misunderstanding of rape.
Start your research with how "perceived shame frequently makes the victims of rape never report the crime."
It's not about the victim "wanting to suffer" -- it's about the victim being made to believe (by their attacker) that reporting the crime will lead to worse fate than the actual crime itself.
I personally won't use software produced by projects like CentOS. My belief is that projects like CentOS are there because people want to skate on the backs of people and companies who have spent time and money making a good product, just because they don't want to pay for that hard work. I believe this is the flaw in the GNU license, and not open source in general. It is like stealing money from those who created the original work. Redhat spends a lot of money to develop their product, and others just copy it and give it away for free.
You do realize that technically Redhat is just skating by on the free give-aways of others, too, don't you?
I mean, as I understand the whole Linux thing. Feel free to correct me.
Yeah , or heres a radical idea - you could have friggin told her.
Ah, the typical response by someone who's never had this happen to them. You do know that you're basically telling this person they "didn't scream loud enough" during the rape, don't you?
I did not buy an iPhone, I refuse to follow Apple's rules, and I they don't tell me what to do. That simple.
BTW, this is not gonna fly in Europe where the European Anti-Trust Commission will see Apple as pushing a monopoly, but in the U.S. as usual they'll do whatever they want because corporations are individuals [and have more money].
AFAIK, it's NOT illegal to refuse to do business with someone, as long as it's not based upon race or gender or religious affiliation. I imagine the UK has similiar laws -- they might have additional laws on sexual orientation; don't have those in the US.
...if they released a few more invites to Google Voice to go along with this so people could test -- I mean, I'm sitting here with a G1 and I can't even use it.:P
Forgive me for my lack of knowledge in this area, but isn't there some sort of encryption involved with that? Wouldn't you verify that the server you've reached is actually the server you wanted before you hand over credientials?

Exactly -- on sites like Slashdot and Ajaxian, I never mind the ads. They're tasteful and usually directly-related to the field I'm reading about.
However, dancing fat ladies in an ad about home mortgages while I'm trying to read CNN.com? That's getting blocked.
You know, I've always wondered about the Herman Miller "Aeron" chair (now available in "True Black!") -- isn't NPR not supposed to have sponsors? :\ How does this get around that?

Probably better than a lot of people that caused our present recession. Zing!
Oh, I'm sure they have. However, I'm sure it's still dwarfed by the amount of free code that they have used over the years.
His nick is "Gandhi," not bloody "Rambo," you moron.

You're welcome. :P
I never did beat Stationfall on my old Mac II. Kept dying after running out of oxygen while driving in a space-truck. But come on, I was 8.
AFAIK, it's NOT illegal to refuse to do business with someone, as long as it's not based upon race or gender or religious affiliation. I imagine the UK has similiar laws -- they might have additional laws on sexual orientation; don't have those in the US.
Because they're not throwing you in jail -- all they're doing is cutting off your service, which I'm pretty sure they're allowed to do even in the UK.
Well, speak of the devil... :P
Aye, it's obviously the gooey remains of a thousand QUAGAAARRR warriors.
Done that like three times with different email addresses. :P
The astronauts are made up of our parents?
...if they released a few more invites to Google Voice to go along with this so people could test -- I mean, I'm sitting here with a G1 and I can't even use it. :P
I have a feeling we're all missing a very bad joke by the parent.
But wouldn't you at least check if the server you got was the one you wanted before you handed over credentials?
Forgive me for my lack of knowledge in this area, but isn't there some sort of encryption involved with that? Wouldn't you verify that the server you've reached is actually the server you wanted before you hand over credientials?
Aye, the word is far, far overused. Most people talking about Ajax are really just talking about DHTML, like you say.
There goes the male sex...? :P
Just a small point -- feel free to ignore this -- but you mean a DHTML command. :P
An Ajax command can have a DHTML callback that opens a window, but the Ajax command itself just communicates with a server.
