  1. Re:Double standard? on Publishers/Authors Angry at Amazon Selling Used Books · · Score: 1

    They're not trying to use any legal persuasion in this case, mlbase.

    They are, essentially, asking Bezos to do them a favour and keep them fed. Therefore, their argument that Amazon is a very large seller of books is perfectly valid.

  2. Re:IT HAS FADING MENUS on Kmeleon - Windows Gecko Browser · · Score: 1

    I think my favourite's point is that being able to give money to the artist (not the big corporation in charge of distributing his music and keeping most of the money) clears his conscience, as he knows that he can directly show his appreciation for the good music.

  3. Re:Taking note? on Kmeleon - Windows Gecko Browser · · Score: 1

    At least it's linux, and you've got the choice of a good number of window-managers and desktop environments. Afterstep, my personal favourite, is fast as hell and very non-obtrusive. For people who want graphical wizards and stuff, Gnome and KDE are around.

    I have NO idea why the mozilla project has taken such a turn towards bloat, I can only imagine it is something to the effect of "Hey, look what else we can do!" Regardless, Gecko is a good rendering engine, and as long as other people can use it to produce delightful browsers like Galeon and K-Meleon, we don't have too much to worry about.

  4. Re:IE? CSS? BAH! on Rocket Arena For Quake 3 Arena Released · · Score: 1

    CSS is tremendously useful. People shouldn't be forced to use primitive, practically incorrect HTML just because netscape royally fucked up with NS 4. Mozilla's supposed to come and save the day now. There was an article on here a few days ago (too lazy to find it) linking to an open letter to netscape concerning this issue.
