well, I do take photo occasionally, and although I never did any reporting I dare claim that photographing very quickly moving/changing things IS a bit looking an action shooter:P you can just go full auto and snap away, or you can aim, and make short bursts etc.. you have to lead your targets sometimes and let them come into the frame, oh, and of course also have a HUD... which shows you what you see, and the current settings, but also the histogram of the last photo... yeah, there's actually a lot more variables than with shooting people and even aliens.
so, that sounds interesting.. that's a game I'd at least like to check out, which I can't say for all those run-of-the-mill I-Can't-Get-Laid-But-I-Can-Be-An-Interwebs-Murderer thingies.... I think the last war game I actually played a lot was Enemy Territory:P give your friend a pat on the back for trying something different, and good luck and stuff.
But that's the point, it shouldn't matter if opting out is too complicated! If it's to complicated for these clowns, they should stop tracking altogether, or go to jail otherwise. Maybe they can write a book in jail about how complicated it all is, or try to rust the bars with their salty tears. Fuck these people, don't give them an inch. Somehow they got the idea that putting on a suit and making a bit of dirty money makes them human, and that idea needs to be stopped before it does further damage. You don't work together with organized crime to find a solution that works for everybody, you smoke them out. Or you fail to do that and suffer the consequences.
I'm not confused at all about this: This is a joke. It gives a false sense of having accomplished something, which arguable makes everything worse.
In Germany, it's illegal to track personally identifiable info about your visitors you don't ABSOLUTELY need, much less keep it around (it can be argued you need to keep e.g. IP addresses it for a few days in case to be able to block attackers etc., but there isn't a lot of grey area). Sure, that still needs to be enforced, but at least that actually means something. Kinda like making rape illegal, instead of printing "please don't rape me" t-shirts. Geez.
The question you refer to is in itself asking nothing. However, the person who uttered it very likely wished to use it as a means to ask if the mario/portal mashup the article brought to our attention could also be considered fair use.
Nah, it's a typo, I bet you. 2 and 3 are right next to each other on the keyboard? And if someone for their own framework wants a function for that, why not? Of course it's kinda pointless, but to to make this about mathematics.... wow:D
You could climb on the shoulders of another small man, hang a large coat over your shoulders and talk in a really deep voice. That might not be enough, but it would be a start.
Can someone explain to me some GOOD things you can do with iframes?
Well, I'm very much a total javascript newbie still, and recently I decided to implement popup windows for my custom CMS thingy. Using iframes for that, I could simply re-use everything as is, and the submit button of pages "embedded" in a popup still works. For example the comment form pops up, you enter your comment and hit submit, the popup says thank you for your comment, you close the popup. Or you go to the "comment on X" page directly -- same code internally, you see? which of course also means everything works with javascript disabled which is super leet.
If I wanted to make that without iframes, I would have to make a second submission/feedback route via AJAX... for stuff I already have! Essentially doubling that stuff for everything that can be handled in popups. Nah...
And then there's dashboards, little scripts on various webservers displaying various stats, all put into one dashboard via iframes. Sure, that's again not exactly useful for the end user, but I do appreciate such a thing exists. I'm sure there are a lot of real uses for iframes... un the absence of abuse, they can allow for wonderful stuff that would be needlessly complicated without them.
and for what purpose? what would I gain by reporting inflated numbers to webite? not that I would ever even come close to a like button, much less employing it, but still, I wonder? I don't doubt the data can be manipulated, but for what ends?
good point... is there something like a "fuck facebook" plugin? you know, block all resources hosted on facebook domains, unless you're actually browsing facebook... if something like that doesn't exist, it kinda should, and surely google and others could use being included in that, too....
I'd rather write scripts and assign them to buttons. why would I eat for loops for breakfast, when I can shift-select and drag and drop? and what would I need a regex for? to filter something out of a huge list, instead of clicking the icon I put where I want it, in reach of the stuff it operates on? seriously, no. of course, it depends on what you're actually doing with your computer, but I would be hard pressed to think of much I do regularly that wouldn't be slow like ass via the command line. unless you want to add every single application to your path and whatnot, which would be insanity/stupid.
and are you seriously meaning to imply that for example writing latex or postscript or even HTML is faster, even with auto-completion, than styling something in word with the mouse? hah! mind you, I code ALL my stuff by hand, I enjoy that, but I also do not live in bizarro world. come on, get real. you do have a very, very good point, but you totally lose it with your "clicky filemanager" quip. have you ever seen directory opus? check it out and see if you can bring yourself to diss it. a GUI isn't just about clicking, also about graphical meaning, vicinity, all sorts of things. and while you use the mouse, you're still free to use (simple) keyboard shortcuts, too;)
how would I even go about selecting text with the keyboard on a webpage? and even just just tooltips and contextual, non-intrusive help is so awesome in so many cases - I'd prefer having the manual in-app for the most part, with links to more elaborate explanations where needed/useful. in most cases, I can simply use apps without having to learn fuck all. they simply work as expected. that would be VERY hard to pull off with commandline stuff, that won't ever happen.
to think the command line is not a GUI, is silly anyway -- it's just a very rudimentary GUI. the screen I am looking at now has LOTS of text and LOTS of input fields. a CLI is just a stripped down version of that. sorry to pop that bubble, I'll get off your lawn now and maybe you can go back to sleep and keep dreaming ^^
"could" being the keyword here. as you said. "it was extremely useful under Win16 I have often wondered why MS removed it." it (the actual functionality) was removed == it is no longer there. yes, it "could come back", but you could say this about anything, really:P
but yeah, if you ever get into money, send some my way, so I can do something actually innovative with it. I have better ideas under the shower than mozilla has in years of meetings, and I think that goes for just about any remotely intelligent and curious person on the planet. just saying.
so what you're saying is: good point about there being no way to do that, except that there is a way, except that way doesn't actually exist... ? heh ^^
communicating about something that makes sense is nowhere near the same than spending time AND money AND emotions AND words (that mean zero) on something like spectator sports... the truth hurts, doesn't it?

That actually was a rant about me very much minding that reality :P

it's probably in your brain. move elsehwhere and soon enough you'll find it there, too ^^
Heh? They're perfectly safe. Just don't turn the handle.
thanks!
oh, I don't mind having to whitelist personally, I do that with cookies too and wouldn't want it any other way. thanks for the suggestion!
heise rules! but that isn't news ^^

that still leaves chrome, opera and safari :D (yeah I know I'm greedy, but it's for a good cause ^^)

This does not surprise me at all!

it's using retarded people to make one feel better about having just as little clue as anyone else as to why there is something and not nothing.
hah.
just use a normal browser and hit F11?
but yeah, if you ever get into money, send some my way, so I can do something actually innovative with it. I have better ideas under the shower than mozilla has in years of meetings, and I think that goes for just about any remotely intelligent and curious person on the planet. just saying.
"32-bit versions of Windows ignore the flag"
so what you're saying is: good point about there being no way to do that, except that there is a way, except that way doesn't actually exist... ? heh ^^
That would also make him not a kook :P
