  1. Opera had it first (as always) on Ogg Theora In Firefox, With Wikimedia Support · · Score: 4, Informative

    I really don't want to sound fanboyish, but, Opera implemented the attribute (though only for Windows at the time) at 8th November 2007 and it added the Mac and Linux builds at 18th July 2008.

    But, as always, it didn't got the respectable place in /.'s front page.

    I am also dissapointed in the fact that Wikipedia didn't even say a single word about Opera supporting the same spec. as Firefox even earlier than Firefox.
    Yes, I do know they support free (as in free speech) software so they recommended Firefox, but not saying a single word about Opera makes me (and Opera's devs) cry.

    Then instead of switching to a version of a browser which isn't conforming to the latest web standards (FF 2.x), you could have just tried Opera, which address bar is better (at least to me of course) than Firefox's.

    That was totally not my point, my point was why do you have to activate a phone you bought through a software application on a computer. Please correct me if I'm wrong but, this maybe is the first phone I that requires that.
    I mean, there are lots of great phones out there that don't need "activation", just put in the SIM card, turn on the phone (if its charged ofc.) and you're ready to go!
    So, all in all, I want to say a computer shouldn't be required for the most basic of functions of the phone to work (hey, its a phone - its used to dial numbers).

  4. Apple, cut the BS with iTunes on Full Review of the iPhone 2 On Launch Day · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I mean seriously, you buy a phone and then you need to go home and activate it through some software?

    What if I don't run Windows nor Mac?

    I mean, Apple, cmmon ..
    That means that obligates me to have a computer running the OS you choose. Or installing another OS just for activating it.

    What's next?
    Will I be obliged to have 4 gigs RAM to move my pics to the PC's hard disk?

    P.S. I know I could just go to a friend and activate the phone, but will you just go to his house to use his computer and you have your own at home?

    Google is still a search and advertisement company and that's pretty much it.

  16. Re:What about Opera? on Google Releases Desktop Gadgets For Linux · · Score: 1

    Will you idiots stop posting crap information like this? Opera was NOT the first graphical browser to use tabs. To my knowledge it was GNNBrowser (which also went under other names), which I used in 1993-94 on Windows 3.1. I apologize for any inconvenience I caused with my comment, but you didn't have to call me an idiot, after all you could have done, would be just to correct me. And also, please be more informative and tell us that the correct name of the browser was InternetWorks at first and then GNNWorks, so we could look it up on Google. Thanks. P.S. Opera isn't even second. Netcaptor had tabbed browsing before Opera.
  17. Re:What about Opera? on Google Releases Desktop Gadgets For Linux · · Score: 2, Informative

    Opera's proprietary (CLOSED) shit Have you even tried Opera? It indeed is proprietary, but not everything that is closed is shit, and Opera is just one proof of that. They had the biggest innovations in the browsers: First to include tabs, first to include mouse gestures, bookmarks nicknames (it took Firefox to come to its third version to implement this great feature), complete control over the browser with the keyboard, and so on...

    it took them years to ditch the advertising Yes, this is one of the reasons why Opera's market share is low.

    now they need to ditch the closed source and open it up. This has its ups and downs, and one of the downside is when they open their source, their paid version of Opera mobile maybe still paid, but with the source of Presto (the rendering engine of Opera's browsers) everyone with more skills could make its own version and give it for free, which means no salaries for the employees. I guess I don't have to speak about the ups of it, because I guess everyone probably knows them :)
