True, Except some of those on that list expect the rest of us to pay for it. You want to "Live in poverty where they have no responsibilities" then you don't get a dime for it.
"30 or more windows with 100 or more tabs open for several hours."
Your trying to browse 3000 web sites at once and you expect your browser NOT to crash? (WTF! Are you running this on the worlds largest super-computer with a terabit internet connection or something or just some standard desktop?)
I've never had any performance issues that bad, the only time FF seem to crash for me is when Adobe Reader / Flash plugins get hung (mostly PDFs)
I think the max # of tabs i've run is 30-40 (mem use around 500MB seems normal for that)
Yes this new rapid-release, copy chrome look and up versions to match is really annoying. (if i wanted chrome i would use chrome) just because chrome is at (what, 14 now?) does not mean mozilla needs to race to copy them.
Our org. just finished deploying FF 4 after testing with our various app vendors for months (we were on 3.5 * 2.0) next year if mozilla continues this kind of BS I may be forced to remove it from our 4000+ desktops and go back to IE just to maintain some level of stability/consistency (those IE GPOs are getting better now) we will not be following this rapid-release BS (it's the main reason we did not deploy chrome)
Almost 12 year of not having IE as the default. (I never thought i would change that back)
It's even easier with servers fire up support.dell.com fill out the service tag and put in the problem description "Front panel says drive 4 is dead, send me a another one"
1-4 hours later a new drive shows up at the front desk with a courier from Dallas wanting a signature.
Place drive in old box and sit on loading dock.
No questions asked and it's done, always pay extra for business/enterprise support (NBD,4hr, or 2hr (on-site/do it yourself)) it's well worth it.
Attaching a high-speed link like this is relatively easy (and cheap), now if they do this for free to some uni on the opposite coast or very far away I will be more impressed.
I usually deal with the following when trying to delete large directory structures:
"Yes to All" prompt for Directories 5mins later... "Yes to All" prompt for "Hidden" files 5mins later... "Yes to All" prompt for what it thinks are "System" files 5mins later... "Yes to All" prompt for "Application" files 5mins later... "Yes to All" prompt for "Archive" files 2mins later... "Yes to All" prompt for "Insert type you never heard of until now" files
What we need it a "Yes to MOTHER-FUCKING ALL" button with no further prompts!
Then there is the way it handles errors during copy/move/delete prompts (how about a skip option and keep going instead of just stopping?)
And while we're at it quit scanning/previewing every damn file when listing a folder (i just love how the system halts whenever it hits an.exe file that some dumb-ass developer left a UNC path to a non-existent path on my system for the icon before it gives up and just renders what is cached in the EXE itself) The only thing that should be scanned is Filename, Size, and Date (at least give me an option to turn off this crap. (which should already be readily available to the FS index anyway)
The US Govt. which has never spent within it's means should not be trusted with my or anyone's retirement fund or to provide any service, They are liars and thieves.
If you are dumb enough to rely on this and they don't pay up you get exactly what you deserve, which is nothing after the thieves are done borrowing it for their own gain.
We have known for a long time this was headed for bankruptcy (it's a damn pyramid scheme no matter what they want to call it)
I don't pay into SS but pay into something else, no way I'm falling for the SS scam.
I would say the age limit is BS to begin with, it should instead be "get a job, pay taxes and pay your way and you can do as you like" (under the law of course)
Don't want your kids buying certain things then don't give them money for it, but if they get a job and get their own money than they are responsible enough to do what they please with it and accept the consequences too.
At least the climate skeptics are using "their" own earned money instead of "my" money by force (i.e. taxes taken from me and given to these public institutions)
If the Global warming/cooling/change alarmist want to lobby and preach do it with your own damn money.
Neither side should get any money from the govt. (i.e. tax payers) They can do their own research with their own money.
The solution is simple, Just because they are Ethernet & TCP/IP now does not mean they need to be connected to the Public Internet.
DISCONNECT THE DAMN THINGS FROM THE INTERNET!
If you need remote communication from other sites use WAN links and VPN, Don't use the $20 on-sale special DSL/Cable Internet package of the week. How Fucking hard is this?
"Plaintiff kept the laptop in his bedroom, as well as throughout his mother's household and his father's household," said Levin's lawsuit. "Plaintiff's younger brother noticed that the light in the camera would go off and on at odd times, wondering if the family was being 'spied on.' Plaintiff's mother dismissed this idea as absurd, as the notion that the school district was secretly monitoring and taking pictures of students was simply incomprehensible and beyond all rational belief."
The real question is why are there only civil suits, and why hasn't the lazy-ass district attorney not filed criminal charges yet?
I'm surprised "ANY" CC number data was allowed to be stored at all (by law anyway) A member of my family works a lot with CC transaction machines/data processing companies, And under various U.S./State laws and CC company rules/regs. their devices/processing companies are not allowed store "ANY" CC number details once the transaction clears. (except thing like Name, amount purchased, etc... for records, but not numbers or verification codes)
At the very least if Sony stored any thing in the U.S. side of the company they would be violating various laws/CC company rules (if you want to process say VISA cards you have to obey their rules and be subject to possible audits at their request)
Dell and other server vendors have this options, just have to pay more at the time of purchase and you get to keep the drive that is being replaced.
Alternately you could just file a typical replacement request for a dead drive, wait for it to be replaced, then not send back the original. You will get a bill though for non-compliance in the returns process.
Anonymous and WikiLeaks didn't pay up, They should have payed protection mo... err donated campaign contributions. Then the politicians will protect them with multi-billion$ bailouts.

Pay for yourself, why should I pay for it?

According to http://www.google.com/intl/en/about/corporate/company/ they are headquartered in Mountain View, CA and they are providing "high speed" internet access for free to Palo Alto (only a few miles away)

"reasonable doubt" is used in crimal court the term used to win in civil court is "preponderance of evidence"

Interesting that the TSA missed him since he was "Inbound" from an International flight from Europe. (i.e. no TSA screening at all)
The TSA is still useless/for show.

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Roadmap#Product_Priorities_for_2011
It states "Four technology shipment vehicles in 2011, including Firefox 4"
That does not mean four versions of FF will be released in 2011, just that FF4 is one of the projects.

The F*&^ing Apple Newton had this functionality as well. (Design/Manufacturing/ quality is really going down these days)
Wait, you mean a function that has been a part of Windows Mobile 5/6 and the early days of PocketPC/WinCE is just now being introduced to WM7?
Don't forget even more of the above in "3D Editions"
