  1. Re:These are the days on Mozilla 0.9.6 Released · · Score: 1

    Ability to bring up my $EDITOR when typing in a textarea
    Plugin missing popup isn't so annoying (I refuse to install flash)


    Should be pretty easy to add for every browsers.

    A clean looking theme that isn't netscape 4-ish
    Check out Galeon's themes

    More usability based around the tab feature. That thing is wonderful!

    I can't think of a way how t improve tabs, it's great already.

    A way to delete the contents of the URL bar without destroying the contents of my clipboard. Right now, I copy a URL from somewhere else, then click in the URL bar and hit delete, just to have the contents of the URL bar copied to my clipboard.

    Galeon has "sweep the url bar" button, you can add it from options. It's pretty handy :)

  2. Re:BSOD on XBox Released · · Score: 2, Funny

    Xbox has a green interface, thus has a green screen of death.

    How can you do Ctrl-Alt-Del with a Xbox's controller? :)

    Doesn't the modern Intel Pentium 4 run just about as fast as this one too?

    With XP :)

    >fry an egg on, I've never looked back. (much like today's P4 and Athlon, hey Thanksgiving baking tip, toss a turkey in one of these machines and cook it in half the time!)

    I've long wanted to have a coffee maker that uses some kind of cpu as heat source, it would be nice to make a cup of coffee while compiling kernel :)

  5. And I though that... on Intel 4004 Turns 30 · · Score: 2, Interesting

    ... the first microprocessor was older than UNIX

    It seems a bit strange for me to think that first unix didn't run on a machine with microprosessor.

    >The urpmi tool coming with mandrake is well.. ownage =). Works like apt-get for me in the rpm world.

    almost like apt-get, I still prefer apt-get

    >urpmi is the frontend to rpmdrake =).

    Isn't rpmdrake/grpmi (graphical) a frontend to urpmi (command line)?

    >It just works =). The nr. 1 reason i use mandrake (the second is cooker).

    I like urpmi, but I think it's too hard to set urpmi to use only ftp-servers and no cds. It's not impossible, but it's way too hard. (Compared to apt-get, and I usually install debian directly from net.)

  7. Re:/. could have some kind of silent moment on AMD Athlon XP 2000+ Review 6 Weeks Before Release · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I actually live in finland, that's a lot closer to Moscow than NY. And I don't care so much about victims' nationality or religion. I just think it's sad that so many people died.

    And you're right I wouldn't prolly give a damn if someone would die in a russian plane crash. That's because I think flying with russian aeroplanes is a suicide.

  8. Other hw sites have already done this. on AMD Athlon XP 2000+ Review 6 Weeks Before Release · · Score: 1, Insightful

    So I don't see why this had to be posted at here. If you're interested about overclocking you computer you also prolly read those hw sites.

    because of that crash.

    Maybe they'll also patent "Software crash" and "Informative blue screen that calms down customers"

    Actually that link to digichromatography tells also about that same.

    The net is full of hardware/overclocking sites. I think their readers are more interested about strange cases.

    Or they could implant that right after birth. In the future those chips will be even smaller so they could actually make implants so small nobody could notice them. So in the "end" we all might have implants with instant messaging, GPS and mobile phones. Let's just hope that we have the control...
