What pisses me off about Adobe's Flash is the installer, every time it asks me to update it asks me wether I want to have it automatically updated in future, or ask me, or never. I select ask me, and it asks me every fucking time, I bet if I selected the automatically one it would never ask me again.
It's annoying nagware, and they'll never change that aspect because they just want everyone to blindly accept every new version they shove out.
And it's still shite at playing video in a webpage compared to a standalone video player.
With cigarettes you know that they're not good for you and the companies have an absolutely enormous list of ingredients they can add to them to increase how quickly your body takes in the nicotiene and keep you addicted, and they're not required to tell you what nasties they added.
But each death stick from the same subset of a brand will all have the same level of nasties in them, whereas e-cig liquid can vary from batch-to-batch as it's not regulated.
Although saying that I did once buy a pack and the first stick made me feel like I was smoking ten at once, I threw it away because suspected it was fake and I didn't want to go back to the shop and say "hey these cigarettes I bought from you are killing me"
Maybe it's time I went tech on my nicotiene intake...
Not so well laid out actually, the comparison table is squished to the left side of the screen, causing the most of text in the table elements to wordwrap single words.

I really really hope you can bring a new Road Rash to modern day hardware, that would be on my christmas list for sure:)
BTW, small idea for inclusion into a new RR; Biker gangs. Play as a lone ranger or join a gang and fight other gangs (making sure not to beat up your fellow gang members)
Saw it years ago and with my love of Road Rash really wished it would be turned into a game. Road Redemption seems like it's borrowing too much from FPV gaming with the shotgun etc. which detracts from the original Road Rash style of gaming where you go hammer'n'tongs at your opponents without having to worry about aiming or other such crap - just get close and press the hit & kick buttons like mad:)
And "bunghole" could be a euphamism for "internet", which would explain why Beavis said "I need teepee for my bunghole", he just wanted to go online...
TPB is blocked here in the UK on the major ISPs (mine included), which after their move to NK means a 'free' country is now blocking a site in a 'closed' country.
Removing wildcard search is not "this quarter's color scheme" you ignorant troll, it's taking away the powerful ability to fuzzy search, eg you can't simply use 197* to find something from the 1970's you have to put this long string in instead (1970,1971,1972,1973,1974,1975,1976,1977,1978,1979) which doesn't guarantee finding all the related listings.
And trying to find electronic components if you know the first few digits of a range of compatable parts/revisions is almost impossible without wildcard search, same goes for model numbers of equipment.
Although I've been using eBay for 13 years I'm getting really sick of them fucking with the layout and search engine every 6 months to the point where it's now no longer user-friendly but user-hostile. I've managed to stave off some of the shit they're trying to force on us (like oversized 'thumbnails' that are so large you can only see 3 or 4 items in a list of up to 200 on your screen) by some greasemonkey scripts but it's a never-ending fight against their retarded programmers who seem to keep tweaking things just to justify their wages (which should be frozen for their detrimental impact to the UI of the site).
When you click on a link of a file that isn't a usual image/link/txt type it asks you if you want to Open or Save the link to disk, but even though I've got the checkbox ticked for "Do this automatically for files like this from now on." it ALWAYS brings up that fucking popup! They've NEVER fixed it!
Who exactly is behind the push for real names to be used instead of 'anonymous' screen names throughout the internet? I don't like it.
Every time I login to YouTube I get pestered to change my username to my 'real name', except of course the 'real name' they're trying to push me to select isn't actually my real name.

You mean Brawndo doesn't have electrolytes??
bitch.
A slashdot article about resurrecting a tab? Are you fucking serious?
Not interested.
When they could just watch The Jeremy Kyle Show and find conclusive proof that aliens do exist.
Confirmation from an American authority that Bitcoin is a legitimate form of money.
A form of money they have absolutely no control over.

Enough with the fucking retarded ROT13 shite, turn it ff already.

How did that happen?

Like I said, user-hostile.

Ridiculous.
They're trying to intimidate without using lawyers because they don't have any legal power to stop you using winapp2 - ignore them.

Ahh mp3s... my Amiga wasn't powerful enough to play mp3's and multitask well at the same time, but it did play mp2s ok. Who else can remember mp2's?
Some of the mp3s in my current collection are dated as far back as 1997 and still sound crisp for such an old compression technique.
SKREEEE SCUUSHHHHHHHHHH....
