You know the real theater? With people on stage? If they stop making movies they can always make theater - more fair too - people actually have to show up each time and earn their money.
"Ignore font sizes specified on Web pages" And it does - except when people use stylesheets to specify an absolute size
So in other words, it doesn't. Ok, well I guess you win.
I win? So you agree that MSIE is badly designed and should be changed. I am gratified to hear that. We'll keep making accessible, valid, useful designs that degrade for those without sight, poor sight, or other impairments...
You have still not said who "we" are.
and you keep bitching about how we're not fitting your mold of the "other 99%".
I complain about discrimination and you call it bitching - how superficial of you.
I am the one who complained about a bad design thing that should be changed, you are the one who joined and said it shouldn't because 1% get it right. For once let democracy rule.
This is why "ignoring font size" (whatever that means),
New to the internet are you? Internet Explorer has, in it Internet Options/Acessibility:
"Ignore font sizes specified on Web pages"
And it does - except when people use stylesheets to specify an absolute size - perhaps the programmers thought that they webmonsters knew what they were doing. Sorry, ment to write webmasters.
Ah, baseless accusations without any research, I should have recognized this troll at the first post.
You come across as some unthinking person who only cares about some lofty design goals and care little about anything else - that you add "troll" here just shows that as well. Anybody dare not agree with you, must be a troll!
And how the fuck could I "research" a random stranger - and more to the point why should i waste time on that - will it improve the multitude of sites out there? No it won't. Better try and forget it (until I'm reminded of it again)
Our sites go through a QA test of...
Yeah yeah, bla bla - everybody are saints - show me your site and I'll tell you if you are the exception (and if your only site is http://code.plkr.org/ then yes, that is readable - but 15 tests for that?)
Why do you think I used em in my font declaration, and not px or pt ?
Because you like being in the minority? I'd bet 99% of sites don't.
We care more about poorly-sighted individuals and those without sight altogether, as well as the colorblind... than almost everyone else we've been compared to.
Good for you (and us), but almost nobody does in any form (not just web - how many games allow you do increase font size on the interface?).
"When you select 'ignore font sizes' it is supposed to ignore line height as well!)" Actually... no it isn't, and that's intentional.
Well Microsoft are idiots, so I'm not surprised if its intentional - but YES IT SHOULD. And here is why:
I come to a page where they specify a font should have an 8 point size and a 9 point line height. The result: I can't read the damn letters because they are so small - the whole idea of HTML being scalable out the window. So I specify that MSIE should ignore font size on a page, and now I have:
A font size that is 25 points, and a 9 point line height! Imagine how that looks tons upon tons of letters on top of each other! STILL making the page unreadbale.
That would just be plain silly
That's just plain silly because you are one of the idiots who don't give a damn when you are discriminating against people with bad eyesight.
and break thousands of cleanly structured CSS layouts
There are now "cleanly" structered layouts on the web, only selvcentered arrogant assholes who don't give a shit that they are discriminating against tons of visually imparied people. CSS is one of the biggest problems ever to happen to the web (and I don't give a damn about your possible opnion that its oh so great - I don't think something which makes everything harder to read is anything wonderful)
Interesting. Now i wonder to what extend the US was first with copyright notions and to what extend they followed others in judical compromise or if others followed them.
Not only the nonense about he can't publish their email since that would be a copyright violation, but you look up the WEB SHERIFF domain, it is registered to an address on the biteit.net domain? That sounds very serious *G*
So what you are really saying is, that people are unable to choose for themselve. Ergo someone needs to control how they choose - and that would be you perhaps?;)
Since the jerks at google tell the browser not to remember the password (autocomplete="off" ) I've picked a really simple password. (No, I don't want them to remember it a couple of days)
You know, like a photocopy. What's the point, you'd still be dead.
Your brain is changing, cells die, new ones are made. When are you no longer you? When all you cells have changed? If the software is a complete digital copy, what need do you have of a body?
While I do not consider myself one of these fans you so graciously pity, I would hold them above you for they certainly would not judge someone doing something they found odd since they know of the perception that society holds of them.
I don't believe that - fear of that which is different is genitically encoded - very few manage to raise above it.
Also, all the precious little inbred tie-ins to the the original series (C3PO was built by Anakin, "Red Five" was Obi-Wan's call sign, Chewbaca fought along with Yoda, etc. etc. etc.) were really tiresome, and had the impact of making what should have been a large-scale saga about a galactic struggle of mighty armies turn into a story where the fate of all civilizations for two entire generations were married to the actions of the same small small handful of people, many of whom were directly related.
But that was always the way it was in StarWars. In Firefly its the ordinary unknowns that history forgets - but in StarWars it was royalty and those appointed by fate.
Its not just you. But you can't expect everybody to be like you. Some people like movies where they have to think, and where there are things to think about. Hence they expect a review to be more than just "I liked it/I didn't like it"

It will be a crappy implementation which favors the advertizers and not the end user.
(And if they could fix their damn stylesheet bugs: When you select 'ignore font sizes' it is supposed to ignore line height as well!)
Interesting. Now i wonder to what extend the US was first with copyright notions and to what extend they followed others in judical compromise or if others followed them.
Yes, but that is the US constitution not copyright law.

Never. And if they can't make money then - tough, find a less dishonest way of doing it.
Do you have a link to some documentation for that the original thought behind copyright was?
So what you are really saying is, that people are unable to choose for themselve. Ergo someone needs to control how they choose - and that would be you perhaps? ;)
How long will the site be up? (Not counting slashdotting):
1 Day
1 Week
2 Weeks
1 Month
It's a ploy by the MPAA!
Again, they're not suggesting everybody that has encryption software knows they're doing something wrong
Just that they all have something to hide from the police state. And that must be wrong, surely?
Alas it seems not. Was a neat idea though. Thanks for suggesting it roubles.
Meh, Opera can remember Gmail passwords.
Because Opera chose to ignore the html command. Good for Opera.
If it's a system you trust enough to store your password, why is it using IE?
I don't understand your question?
Since the jerks at google tell the browser not to remember the password (autocomplete="off" ) I've picked a really simple password.
(No, I don't want them to remember it a couple of days)
shook things up a bit when we realized that we were animals
Of course a lot of people don't accept that theory.

GMail has a "remember me for a week" option. What are you complaining about?
That should be evident if you read my sig.

Yep, I'm sure it would be much better for me, since I don't understand spanish!
Judge not, lest ye be judged.
