Re:You'd think..

On: Microsoft Forgets To Renew Hotmail.co.uk

You'd think that Microsoft would be bright enough to give hotmail.co.uk an MX record so that it actually works.

The present situation:

• User enters hotmail.co.uk into browser and it redirects to hotmail.com.
  
• User believes that their e-mail address is bleh@hotmail.co.uk and tells people so.
  
• Person sends e-mail to bleh@hotmail.co.uk and it bounces.
  

Bit annoying.

hotmail.co.uk doesn't have any DNS records ATM...

Re: redhat?

On: KDE 3.1 Released

Yes; clearly it's Red Hat's fault that they didn't include today's release of KDE in a release of Red Hat that came out all the way back in September.

But they have included a KDE 3.1 snapshot in the latest beta ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/beta/phoebe/ . Tagged as '3.1-0.11 Red Hat'.

I use tabs like this:

middle click on a link
let it load in the background
watch for the tab having loaded
go read the tab contents.

Also, in galeon, 'sessions' and 'open whole folder in tabs' from bookmarks makes reading a large number of sites frequently very simple.
