  1. Re:Microsoft Says... on Opera Reaches 1 Million Downloads Thanks To Google · · Score: 2, Funny

    Internet Explorer is without adds!

  2. Yeah they don't care on Yahoo! Mail Superior to Gmail ? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I hate the way the gmail people wont allow MSIE to store the password. Don't give me crap about its insecure - its none of your damn business if I want to store it! Jerks.

  3. Intellectual Property... on U.S. Announces Global Intellectual Property Plan · · Score: 1

    ... isn't. Its mostly an amoral concept.

  4. Re:Can someone please explain to me... on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    DOesn't seem to work.

  5. Re:No reason? I think not. on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    I think you'll find that I don't agree, hence my original statement.

  6. Re:DRM is the issue, not TiVo on TiVo User's Fears Explored · · Score: 1

    Of course, with half the advocates of this type of thing thinking that copying someone else's song to millions of anonymous strangers is "Fair use",

    Why do you think it isn't?

  7. Yeah, Blizzard are idiots on World of Warcraft Interview "Responses" · · Score: 1

    Don't forget that.
    (And they discrimiate against people with bad eyesight, in their games)

  8. I wonder... on GoogleTV Coming Soon? · · Score: 1

    ...if they are going to release a free browser as well ;)

  9. Re:Can someone please explain to me... on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    Opera was first with mousegestures

    And it seems one MUST press a key while doing the gesture, I hate that - years of MSIE means I want it to be a pure gesture, no qualifier clicking.

    It also annoys the heck of me that when you right click on a tab the top menu ISN'T "Close" but 'new page'

  10. Re:Can someone please explain to me... on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    And, MSIE can do mouse gestures on pictures, it appears Opera can't :)

  11. Google ... of course! on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    This is step 1.

    Step 2 is rebranding it as the "Google Browser"!
    ;)

  12. Re:Can someone please explain to me... on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but when you click the middle emouse button Opera moves the cursor to the middle of the screen, and you can't get it to stop!

  13. Re:Next Step on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    Open Source is NOT always the only answer, some people have to make a living.

    And that's related to open source how?

  14. Re:Opera on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    Extensions are what makes firefox the best browser out there.

    Its what makes it the most featureless browser out there (and still its bigger then Opera)

  15. Re:Your right and wrong on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    You see being easy to use is NOT what opensource is all about.

    Which is why most people think open source sucks.

    +1 Insightfull.

  16. Re:No reason? I think not. on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    Sorry, if you need to use a bleeding edge browser to view a public web site then that site is essentially broken -

    Except, 95% of all webmasters do not agree.

  17. Re:No reason? I think not. on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    Except that's crap. Then you have to fix the damn thing every time a new version comes out. Obviously THEY need to fix it.

  18. Old was better on Slashdot HTML 4.01 and CSS · · Score: 1

    Oddly enough the new ones scrolls slowly in MSIE (Is that by design also I wonder)

    Generally things look a bit odd, though not totally a deal breaker (at least no fixed font sizes), good thing i suppose - I remember when Bluesnews changed to an awfull design, that was the last time i read it :-/

  19. Very annoying on Opera Free as in Beer · · Score: 1

    When you click the middle mouse button Opera moves the cursor! Bloody annoying.

  20. Re:Civil Litigation on Mothers Taking the Fight to the RIAA · · Score: 1

    Well, what I was doubting was that they'd get a good result, no so much the motivation :)

  21. Re:Lets hope they loose on Authors Guild Sues Google Over Print Program · · Score: 1

    Damn O's !

  22. Re:A quote which comes to mind here... on Mothers Taking the Fight to the RIAA · · Score: 1

    Well, a lot of people say they don't vote because "it changes nothing" (Which is of course mostly an easy excuse), so perhaps they think a rebellion will change something? Though you may well have a point.

  23. Hang on!!!!!!!! on Mars Orbiter Sees Changes · · Score: 1

    And for three Mars summers in a row, deposits of frozen carbon dioxide near Mars' south pole have shrunk from the previous year's size, suggesting a climate change in progress

    Isn't this somewhat similar to what's happening at the North Pole here? More ice is melting than is refreezing, something they say is caused by global warming - but if something similar is happening on all the planets...?

  24. Lets hope they loose on Authors Guild Sues Google Over Print Program · · Score: 1

    Bastards (even if they didn't kill Kenny)

  25. Re:Civil Litigation on Mothers Taking the Fight to the RIAA · · Score: 1

    The RIAA is big enough to have lawyers on staff, full time. In that case, they might as well be doing something, right?

    Granted.

    The profit comes not from the lawsuit, but from scaring people away from "piracy" and (theoretically) buying the product.

    Not so sure about that.

    It's "lose", not "loose

    Yeah, I know - don't know why I wrote it like that though.
