  1. Re:4xx are for user error, 5xx is for sever error on HTTP Error Code 451 Approved For Censored Web Pages (mnot.net) · · Score: 1

    nope. Typing the wrong url is your fault.

  2. 4xx is wrong on HTTP Error Code 451 Approved For Censored Web Pages (mnot.net) · · Score: 1

    4xx means client error. 5xx means server error. we need 6xx for government error.

  3. You can always warn the people. If nothing happens, then because you warned them. If something happens, you're right.

  4. Re:Flash must be evil because HTML5 is so good? on New Outlook Bug Doesn't Require Users To Interact With Emails To Be Compromised (softpedia.com) · · Score: 1

    Yeah, and that's the pro- and cons.

    Pro HTML5: You can see content without the rest
    Con HTML5: No way to save a full game / animation like with an .swf file.

    But flash is content and scripting.
    You can turn off js and read slashdot. But you cannot turn off flash and see a flash movie. Even when the movie itself would not need user interaction (scripting).

  6. did you mean the magic 8ball?

  7. Yeah, i just googled some statistics, as i was surprised about the netherlands statement. This tried to correlate switzerland and gun crimes, but because of the reasons you named it's no proof for anything, again.

  8. Re:Nothing on Replacement For Mozilla Thunderbird? · · Score: 1

    Yeah ... some security bugs may need attention. But i guess most are like "here is the proof of concept, here is the minimal patch" not like "its uttterly broken, you need to find out whats wrong yourself".

    Why do i need to check a signature, when i am sure, that my bank does it the usual way, via postal service?

  10. Re:It isn't, and is... on Replacement For Mozilla Thunderbird? · · Score: 1

    it cannot be dead wrong. Because when my bank DOES NOT HAVE my e-mail address, I AM SURE, that the mail is not from my bank.
    Your argument is invalid.

  11. People are still using outlook? on New Outlook Bug Doesn't Require Users To Interact With Emails To Be Compromised (softpedia.com) · · Score: 1

    Isn't it known to be insecure like since 2000?

    In the netherlands, 1.9% have guns. Maybe you're confusing it with switzerland, where its 27.2%

  13. how many bomb threats from adults would you believe? It's rather stupid to think anyone has a bomb, just because he's telling you. If he had, he would probably not be telling and without any source where he could have got some, its not credible anyway.

    Vivaldi is getting M3 soon.

  15. Re:It isn't, and is... on Replacement For Mozilla Thunderbird? · · Score: 1

    Do not give your bank your e-mail address. The bank does not need it. Not even for online banking on most banks. And you can be sure, any bank mail you're getting is fake.

    wikipedia is right. or read the OSI definition, which is "the Definition".

    Whats the advantage over mutt?

  18. Nothing on Replacement For Mozilla Thunderbird? · · Score: 1

    To think thunderbird will die is just stupid. Somebody will adopt it or you can just use seamonkey mail, which is basically the same. Look at kompozer, nvu, ... how ever the mozilla composer is currently called, opensouce does not die, there is always someone to adopt it.

    Even Google hosts! The only way, which does not only block ads, but malware and government spying!

  22. Broken Link on Why Is Gravity the Weakest Force? · · Score: 4

    Redirects to forbes.com/welcome, which is an empty page.

    Stop linking sources with crude javascript, please.

  23. Twitter should fix its endless scroll on Twitter Testing Non-Chronological Timelines (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    Twitter has the most disfunctional endless scroll ever. In the app as on the web.

    You scroll, you retweet, you fave, it jumps back to top. You try to scroll back down and need to wait for reloading of the tweets in between, because they vanished.

    Not that reverse chronical endless scroll would be useful anyway. You scroll down until you catched up (backwards, why?!), then you jump up to unfold new tweets and start scrolling down. Repeat.

    They should have a feature "chronical endless scroll from where i stopped reading".
