  1. Surfer Tracking Software on At the Library: a Briefly Vocal Minority · · Score: 1

    Perhaps software that tracks where a user goes. Of course to protect privacy the data is encrypted and the user has a key which must be used. Parents would then be able to review with junior where junior has been.
    Of course this only helps parents who care, unless say internet privileges were revoked if mom or dad hasn't been in to review juniors surf tracks. Before encrypting and saving a link could be tagged with its rating - to help parents who might be a little clue deprived.
    This puts the responsibility on parents and protects privacy.

  2. Never mind the facts Jack on At the Library: a Briefly Vocal Minority · · Score: 1

    It was Lot's daughters and Lot. When they were fleeing from the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah his daughters thought all the world except for them were destroyed, and then thought they should have their father father their children since he, they thouhgt, was the last man alive. King David saw Bathsheba from his roof. He sent for her and committed adultery. He then gives her husband, Uriah leave from military duty, to give him the opportunity to be with his wife, so that he would think he is the baby's father. Uriah doesn't go in his house though, because his men are still roughing it in battle. David then sends him to the front line and has him abandonned, so that Uriah is killed by the enemy. You were close.

  3. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome on Kmeleon - Windows Gecko Browser · · Score: 1

    I just downloaded and installed k-meleon and am using it, but the arrow keys don't work. The scroll bar doesn't repeat while holding down the mouse button. Am I the only one that this is not working for? I like the look, but this renders it unusable for me.

  4. Re:The broken pencil is inconsistent on Latest Eazel Screenshots · · Score: 1

    I agree that the broken pencil is inconsistent when compared to the eyeglasses with and X. Definitely a pencil with an X is more quickly recognizable as 'no write' than a broken pencil. This was good constuctive critism by ortholattice.

  5. Irresponsible journalism on Criminal Libel, Free Speech And The Net · · Score: 1

    It seems to be quite irresponsible journalism on Jon Katz's part to make misleading and incendiary statements like "sent out of state" and "driven out-of-state". According to the article and the kid's father he was sent to California to live with his granparents, and that's what the kid wanted out of this.
