  1. Covered by OSNews already on Microsoft Typography Withdraws Free Web Fonts · · Score: 3, Informative

    This was covered by OSNews in this article as well as this one a few days ago. The EULA on these fonts allow redistribution of them in unmodified form, so they can be downloaded from http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/. The important thing to learn however is that Linux should stop relying on Microsoft for TrueType fonts.

  2. Re:catching up to mplayer on Open Source, Real Media Mega-player? · · Score: 1

    Not quiet. Mplayer can play only old versions of the Real codec. For anything newer, like RV30, it needs libraries from Realplayer.

  3. Re:90%+ for IE still on AP reports on renewed "Browser War" · · Score: 1

    No, there will not *instantly* be millions of Mozilla users when this happens, because AOL users are not known to upgrade *instantly* when new software is out.

  4. Geeks don't get laid. on Wired on Autism in the Valley · · Score: 2, Funny

    Thank God most geeks don't get laid very often:-)

  5. Re:Rebuild for faster operation. on Mozilla 0.9.5 · · Score: 2, Informative

    That should be --enable-optimize=-XX

  6. Re:This is great on Mozilla 0.9.2 Storms Out The Gates · · Score: 1

    I know. But if there's a very common crasher introduce on the trunk, won't that turn into a topcrasher pretty fast?

  7. Re:This is great on Mozilla 0.9.2 Storms Out The Gates · · Score: 1

    I agree that it is very pleasing. I'm too lazy to check this, but have most of the crashers that were fixed been with us for long? I mean, saying "500 topcrashers fixed" isn't very useful if 250 of those were introduced between the two releases.

    hwaara, do you know if they only count longstanding bugs?
