At first glance these will not look like old school html to me, they will look like a big square with "download plugin" or some such in the middle.

They are cross platform round here, blank squares are easy to draw.

That's an interesting search because it shows that Accoona can't handle character encodings outside of 32-127. When you can't display é in your search results you have lost.
Perhaps it is because Javascript is not available on every platform and we believe in accessibility.
All of my sites have Javascript in them, my latest even make extensive use of XMLHttpRequest, neither of which are REQUIRED to make it work.
FFS that web search is a text input and three buttons.
You display your ignorance with "Apache authentication" it is HTTP Authentication. But you are right about not being able to log out. It was not until the world of Firefox Extensions that such a feature was available.
"No password in the clear" was very easily available to the developers of the 4.0 browsers but they chose to ignore it, for shame.

You are confusing TV with real life.
Real people here have been bawdy for centuries, it is the ruling elite who are fucked up about cocks and cunts.

Thanks, that's a real help.
Even with the knowledge of the damage that caused, you are still in favour of that design philosophy; you're hired !
I think you miss my (snide) point.

You'll find it was on NT that notepad increased its text size capability.
64k is the maximum amount of memory you could malloc on x86 in real mode becuase 64k is the segment size.
It is also why Win 3x/9x would run out of memory as resources such as fonts & icons where all kept in one segment.
What's wrong with edit.com ?
In computer science we call these the kernel and userland

When is the plan9 version slated for release ?
It no longer has a 64k file size restriction and now lets you have extensions that are not .txt.
It really isn't hard to keep your sensitive data safe from the first order of inspection.
One can bleat that the jack boots are calling but don't start whining because your data protection measures are unsound.
With sloppiness like that, what damage a laptop in the hands of a mole.

It is perhaps because you are blind.

That's interesting because on last night's main BBC news they described it as "the lastest craze" and gave it quite a postive piece.
