  1. Re:Solution on Pay to Play the U.S. Way · · Score: 2

    I am merely stating a fact. I wholeheartedly support those politicians that run their finances justly, but there aren't many of them.

    Also, I'm just a freshman in college. I'm not going to run for city council, at least for awhile.

  2. Re:Green Party. on Pay to Play the U.S. Way · · Score: 2

    Or at large elections, like in Britain. Third parties have a decent chance there.

  3. Re:Solution on Pay to Play the U.S. Way · · Score: 2

    Yes, but that, as well as any other change proposed here, will not happen. A change would require the support of the politicians in office to work, and those politicians won't do anything to jeopardize their jobs.

  4. Re:Green Party. on Pay to Play the U.S. Way · · Score: 2

    Yes, but the Green Party is too liberal in the point of view of America (though fairly moderate when compared to the rest of the world).

    I've done this with Mozilla for awhile--http://multizilla.mozdev.org/.

    It'd be nice if I could unload IE from the memory when I'm not using it (all the time)--then Phoenix would run circles around it.

  7. Re:James Bond: Die Another Day (very minor spoiler on Ghost Stations of the London Underground · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Ok, I like Aston-Martins. I also like BMWs. However, the company has nothing to do with this--the concept of an invisible car is just stupid.

    Yes, but the FBI warning doesn't take away any of my rights.

    But soon we'll be forced to agree to EULAs in order to watch a DVD.

  11. Re:Try building a bridge... on The Poetry Of Programming · · Score: 4, Informative

    There's a family guy episode (There's Something About Paulie - Episode #23) in which the Griffins get a new car with a computer. They're messing around with the languages while getting directions, and when they switch to Russian the computer says "In Soviet Russia, car drives YOU." Then, later in the episode, when telling which way to turn at a fork in the road, the computer says "In Soviet Russia, road forks YOU."

  12. Re:Bright future for Open Source E-mail clients on Jupiter Forecasts 50% Increase In Spam · · Score: 2

    I wish I knew where my junk mail messages would be going with Mozilla's junk mail filter. The GUI is there to decide, but it's not yet implemented (the form items are grayed out).

    Yea, he wasn't cast very well, but the rest of the movie is pretty good.

  15. Re:Heh... on Equilibrium · · Score: 2

    There's already a movie similar in concept to that: Antitrust. I watch it once a week, sort of like attending mass.

  16. Bad News on Massachusetts Appealing Microsoft Ruling · · Score: 2

    This is bad, but at least one state is sticking in.

    However, I feel good--I just watched Antitrust again.

    Ahh, but Taft is an idiot. Too bad Hagan couldn't get in.

  18. Re:Still no UPGRADE path! on Mozilla 1.2 Unleashed · · Score: 3, Informative

    I have had MultiZilla installed since 1.1b, and all I've had to do to upgrade is dowload the full file and install in the same directory as before. I've never had to mess around with preferences (except when new features come out, which I generally enable, and all the new options MultiZilla has gained since the time of Mozilla 1.1b) and I've never had to reinstall plugins.

    Oh, and I upgrade nearly every day, though I'll keep 1.2 for about a week before upgrading--it'll be different to use an extremely stable release in place of a relatively stable (compared to IE) nightly build.

    I've had occasional problems with download.com (I think it was with 1.1, but I'm not sure), so I just installed Opera to download from there.

    The daily builds aren't as unstable as most people say. I have them crash about once every week, and that's far better than the "stable" version of M$IE.

    I want Mozilla's integrated mailer, but not the integrated webpage composer.
    You have options--just don't install composer.
