Sun Java? Hmmm... will try that. I never have problems with Quicktime though. I can visit the apple website and watch all the trailers there without any problems.
My online banking website does not play nice with Firefox. If I can get Java to work nicely, I won't use IE for banking.
God I love Firefox. The only damn thing that still doesn't work right are pages that require Java. They work much better on IE. The only time I launch IE is when I need to do some online banking.
It has a row of internet 'phone' booths on its most popular shopping street (Orchard Road)
I am not a Singaporean but I stay here. These internet 'phone' booths are not working. I believe that the plan is to implement them later on, but not yet. Right now, it is just a couple of information kiosks.
I do agree that the infrastructure in Singapore is really really good. There are a few broadband plans going for about $60-70 Singapore dollars a month. That is about $30 USD. Plus the all the service is linked to a national high speed network.
Plus, corruption in this Asian nation is almost non-existent. Bloody incredible.
Actually you can open multiple windows and pages in the new Opera6 just like in Mozilla.
And to the parent poster. You can block pop ups in Mozilla. I have used it since 0.9.7. I do feel that Mozilla's pop up blocks works better. You can set it to block pop ups only if you didn't initiate it.
This is a wee bit offtopic.
Sorry to hear that you have that much problems with shareware programs. Anyway, you said that your email identity was changed and you couldn't prove that you bought the software. Well, why not register using a free email account or something like Sneakemail.
I am beginning to think that the humans were sent to Earth a long time ago by aliens to totally destroy this planet by consuming every single resource and killing every other living creature.
The alien sightings that have been occuring... they are just checking up on how we are doing. Probably wondering what is taking us so long.
After we are done, we will be taken back to our REAL home planet as slaves
Chinese government has the right to do whatever it must do to protect China. That includes population control and the liberation of Tibet.
I really think he meant conquer. So, basically he is saying that it was ok for China to take over Tibet because China didn't like how Tibetans were leading their lives? Hmmm.... They don't bathe for a year, we should invade them and force them to bathe everyday so their odour won't pollute the air. What next? Invade another neighbouring country because of their lack of oral hygiene and internet access.
Each country's citizens choose how they want to live. It is their choice. If they don't like the government or how the country is being run, they have to liberate their own country.
I hope the cell phone module works well. I just got a Motorola PDA phone, the Accompli, and it sucks. I can't beam the contacts to my palm 3 and the os running the phone is really slow. Funny thing is, the Accompli uses the same processor as the palm 3.
With the new handspring and the phone module, I will probably dump my Accompli and palm3. Ermm... maybe not the palm3, works great as a universal remote control.
Hmm... it's going to be a looong fsck if a system crashes on this. Then again, we could probably have a journaling file system for this gunk in a test tube.
What makes it so hard for RedHat or any other company that produces Linux distros to come up with a super secure system like OpenBSD or FreeBSD?
Not to say that linux is insecure, but why can't they just configure linux to be secure right out of the box. Default installations shouldn't include freaky services and programs. Users should add the programs that they want by themselves.
Maybe now we(most of us) will all see a Batman that we can identify with. A Batman who spends the entire time in front of the computer coding, read slashdot, jerk off, read slahsdot, jerk off and then wears a mask just for kicks.
Isn't this something like Jini? I mean, They are going to put Java on a handheld which basically has a microprocessor/microcontroller, why not just use Jini.

Congrats Taco and Kathleen.
Damn. Now I have to come up with something more original.
What I meant was that you can have the tabbed feature in Opera6 just like in Mozilla as well as multiple windows. Together at the same time.
I know this because I open a new window by going to New->Window, and sometimes I open a new tabbed page by going to New->Page.
This is not set by default and you have to enable it in the preferences.

I use both Opera6 and Mozilla. Both rocks.
The new Doom likely will require a no less powerful chip than the soon-to-be-released Nvidia GeForce3.
Did they mean GeForce4 or are all the GeForce3 cards on the market right now fakes?

Have you (or any of the TNG cast) ever rubbed it for good luck?
Before you know it, we'll be discriminated against by the kernel version that we are using.
They probably just hated the scenery then. Plus the fact that mastadon dung didn't smell that nice.
Ahhh.... porn in the air. No more boring long flights. We'd probably have to fight for the toilet to ahem...

Seriously, techies using drugs. What the hell for? Doesn't help you type any faster. Won't even increase your frag count in Quake.
What next? Sueing companies if their programs can read MSWord or Excel files?

There are actually two types of robot soccer competition.
One competition uses a global camera mounted above the field of play. The computer tells the difference between each robots by the color on the robot.
This competition states that the camera must be mounted on the robot itself.
Maybe the US trying to steal secrets like the Weapons-X project. The US could then build a whole army of Wolverines.
Yes yes, I know I have seen X-men one too many times.
Hmm... it's going to be a looong fsck if a system crashes on this. Then again, we could probably have a journaling file system for this gunk in a test tube.
How we can use it:
Replace x-ray machines. The doctor can see right through my body, why would I want to get bombarded by x-rays.
Pimple remover.
AMD was first with the 1GHz processor. Intel retaliates with a 2GHz. I'm betting that AMD will announce a 3GHz next week.
Expect world temperature to sharply increase by next year.
