  1. Two Possibilities... on Firefox Plans Mass Marketing Drive · · Score: 1

    * You are his local Computer Guru: you have to clean up his spyware-infected PC every month or two. Then you can tell to use Firefox in spite of never repairing his Computer.

    * You are not: You don't care about his browser choice.

  2. Firefox, Please Tame Your Memory Hunger on Firefox Plans Mass Marketing Drive · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The 1.5 release has some nice new features, but there is one constant in every release: Firefox gets an augmenting chunk of memory.
    After a couple of hours, it is getting some 100 Mb of memory.

    And counting.

    I hate it to restart with all those tabs open.

  3. Re:Funny ? Not really. Dangerous to the USA on Foot and Mouth Virus and Outlook · · Score: 1

    Similar things about the American agrarical industry: * the use genetically modified crops, * the use of synthetical hormones to grow the cattle And that's also why the EU subsidised their farmers: we in Europe don't want to be dependant of the mass production!

  4. Re:Napster Waffling... on Napster Users Being Arrested In Belgium · · Score: 1

    This has nothing to do with inequality. The IFPI just has chosen 100 'victims' on who the started a juridical procedure. It stands the IFPI free to choose to who they want to do this.

  5. Re:Is MySQL ready for that? on MySQL FS · · Score: 1

    They even have no foreign key support, no subqueries... In my opinion they have some better things to do than this (although it might be usefull).

  6. Re:Somebody tell me ... on European Software Patent Horror Gallery · · Score: 2

    I don't think they are really validated. In Europe, patents can only validated by a judge. A little example: you have a patent on 'telnet' and I am selling an telnet application. You can go to a court to let a judge prohibit this. On that occasion the judge will decide whether your patent is valid or not. Koen
