I can't really say anything like that about things we've succeeded in. Stuff like the first man on the Moon or vehicle on Mars is more like honorable pioneering efforts to me. I wouldn't laugh at space chariots if they had made it to the atmosphere with one.:-)
But sure, maybe we'll laugh at the suggested space elevator to the Moon or something, if it turns out to be way too hard to make and cancelled.
No, and not required either, so let me download the fluff from the internet. GNOME doesn't belong to that, but a whole lot of other things crammed onto those blasted CD's do.
1. jugalator is right 2. jugalator is starting on a dire wolverine
Well, the first one sounds correct:-), but the second one will surely scare any employers away.:-(
Here's one way to fix this "DRM" on Firefox

Breaking Google's DRM

· Score: 3, Interesting
1. Install Adblock. You should have it for other reasons anyway.:-) 2. Add this URL to its block list: http://print.google.com/images/cleardot.gif 3. Disable "collapse blocked elements" in Adblock while browsing Google Print. 4. Pick "View Background Image", then "Save Image As..."
I guess someone will come up with a Firefox extension in no time that will just add a context menu option called "Save Background Image as..."
Believe me, you can design standard compliant web pages that use both XHTML and CSS that views properly in IE. It's just a matter what stuff you use, but a sign of a skilled webmaster is that s/he design pretty and functional pages that view well in both e.g. IE and Firefox. I know it's possible, because I see such pages daily.
What more did you want from a commercially-developed application?
Extensibility and not "everything" in the core app. This is a big downside with Opera in my opinion. I don't want a browser where the devs adds all features they can think of since they don't have an Extension (not to be confused with plugins) system in place.
Just look at the Mozilla browsers to see how successful extensions have been. There are millions of innovative concepts that can be found there, that is far from having been implemented in that ad-supported closed source browser.
I do understand if people like Opera more (Firefox is far slower merely at going back/forward in page histories for example), but there are extensions that have really grown on to me.
Hehe, they comment the files were even still in/incoming/ so MPPA can't have been able to download it either. Funny how they do searches for files with words like "BASIC" and "ALIAS" in them...
Come on... ALIAS1.zip, filesize: 23 K.
Even if it's an automated tool, it's a very stupid automated tool.
Grrr... Still checks by http by default and not https. I already suggested they do this instead. Why not, when they can? Hmm... Maybe because it uses more processing power on the web server's side?:-/
Targeted ads that read my messages, gee, what a great *feature* !
It sure is better than untargetted ads.
Who cares if the ad generator checks your mail. It checks your web searches too.
No taglines as of yet. However, this still does not impress me as a 'feature'
Uh, OK... Sucks to be you?
Which free-mail services don't use Spamassassin?
Uh, do you have a list?
Gmail uses Javascript to render most of the interface with XML for the message/content. Sure, the interface is light-weight, but all these 'new' features Gmail releases, have been around with other WebMail clients for a long time
All major webmails have had slow interfaces here at least. Can you give suggestions of other sites I can check out?
Sure, the Google brand is great, but if Gmail was launched by M$ for example ( with the same interface/features ) , we would all be flamming how poor the service is.
They have already been flamed a lot for the targeted ads, here on Slashdot too. It was brought up in the news, and so on. It just seems people got tired doing it.
is our biggest national security threat really that nuclear bombs aren't powerful enough?
I'm not american so I won't comment on that, but maybe this is researched against major threats but where you still don't want to ruin the ground people can live on for decades after.
Yes, then it's more a case of listening to customers and looking at trends instead of innovating. While that's slightly better, they won't be the winning company, unless they already dominate the market a lot.

Now it no longer fits, and KDE and Gnome are relegated to the second disk.
lol, did you just say he might like Slackware?
Jeez, the bloated Windows XP fits on one CD, and it has useless stuff like movie editors.
It's not compulsory.
No, and not required either, so let me download the fluff from the internet. GNOME doesn't belong to that, but a whole lot of other things crammed onto those blasted CD's do.
Obstruction?
But they'd be willing to take them down if ruled to do so.
Obstruction of my justice.
Yes, I agree about that, though.
... you can of course use Googlism. :-)
:-), but the second one will surely scare any employers away. :-(
Hmm, let's see...
Who is Jugalator?
1. jugalator is right
2. jugalator is starting on a dire wolverine
Well, the first one sounds correct
1. Install Adblock. You should have it for other reasons anyway. :-)f
2. Add this URL to its block list:
http://print.google.com/images/cleardot.gi
3. Disable "collapse blocked elements" in Adblock while browsing Google Print.
4. Pick "View Background Image", then "Save Image As..."
I guess someone will come up with a Firefox extension in no time that will just add a context menu option called "Save Background Image as..."
Hehe...
:-)
Look no further: Clicky!

Opera has plugins which are mostly just viewers or stand-alone (why do they call them plug-ins!?) programs.
I agree with everything you say, but...

Huh? But that assumes the movie will let the character aim at the ground.
If they had only followed 3D Realms instead and thought about a Duke Nukem Forever movie.
At least they stay focused on one particular first person shooter for long enough to produce a movie about it.

sure doesnt look like a lot of evolution just whizzing past us to me...
No, but apparently enough.
Because it probably is a mutation since it's so rare.
But how about a porn site?

Some people just don't get hacking/modding. ;-)
Hint: it's not really meant to be used
And oh yeah, I have about 80GB of free storage available ;).
Wow! You're a lucky person who's given free hard drives.

Gives 404 here.
Did they just take it down?
Don't see how else you'd got that informative score, unless we have lazy mods on crack again.
Umm, mods... That one wasn't coralized...

Did this ship have an on-board camera so you could see the few from its point of view? And is there any web pages with pictures?
I recall there was one on a test flight located somewhere at the landing gear but not 100% sure about that.
I see, wasn't aware of such a poll.
