That's what I think, or more or less at least. I believe there is a tool for each problem.
Not all bugs are better squiched by a debug run, sometimes the good-old printf in the right place is quicker.
Having the gui giving you hints all the time for what you want to write next is cool, until it get things wrong.
Not all persons are equal, not all tasks are equal, there isn't one tool to kill them all. There will aways be a guy that will preffer to do things different, and if he is happy (even if it makes a little bit slower typing) who am I to question?
I would guessed that the rewrite of the DLL had this intention, to use the gecko engine when the system require a IE engine.
It's a nice development to the direction of not needing windows to run windows apps. But I would guess that internal use of the ie rendering engine by windows is heavily dependent on ie only technologies like VB and other stuff that is not that common on the web.
If they make business in your country (otherwise it would be pointless to call you anyway) you could sue the enterprise that did call you so you could get a cracker from them. It's quite simple really a fine is charged for each confirmed and proved call to a non-call list, this fine is then divided to you (probably most part for you lawyer anyway) and the state.
This way the enterprise will not want to call you, because they will get fined. The state will want to uphold the law to their best, since it converts into money and even you can now hope to be called.
The responsible is whoever was the beneficiary of the call (canadian call companies are not the responsible, since they can't be, but their client will).
Also you don't have to trust only the water company, the treated water has to travel from the treatment unit till your house. How can you be sure that every single pipe is 100% sealed and clean?
The video rentals, here in Brazil at least, do warn you when you try to re-rental something you already watched. Also they adapt their behaviour when they see that you like to watch the same movie 2 or 3 times.

I have noticed this long ago. A simple cut and paste from the first paragraphs is what many people do to post here. This work like a charm, since most articles resume themselves in the firsts paragraphs so people that stop reading can get the idea of what is it about.
That pratice hides what people think, their individuality, their self. It is no better then a news agregator. What make's slashdot different from a machine is the people, but for better "scores" people sundenly start acting as machines. If only slashdotians could think less in terms of scoring, slashdot is not a game.
Besides, I never even set foot in any American school, WTF is up with people assuming everyone and everything are American ?
Or worst, because they assume all that is stupid and or nonsense come from america. I am no american either, and frankly I don't love very much the american state right now, but I draw a line when we talk about actual people.
It is incredible how many inteligent people can come from faulty schools and vice versa (stupid people who come from great schools). So just because one thinks that american education is bad (witch I don't know if it is true or not) it surtainly dosen't mean that all americans are stupid and even worst that all stupid people are americans.
Well sure the tests were made in space, but we are talking about really quikly coldify stuff. Why can't we simply melt a lot stuff we want to make glass from and drop it from a building or tower while applying extreme cold to it? Wouldn't it work just like in space?
If the required time to solidify is quick enought the tower dosen't even need to be very high.
The KNEW they would have to surrender, yet CHOSE not to, because they WOULDN'T accept the terms.
The US KNEW they would surrender if they would only relax the term, yet they CHOSEN not to and bomb two (not one, but two) cities out of the map to force them into surrender in the "American way".
Yes they deserved it, because they STARTED it.
According to wikipedia there were 68 civilian casualities in pearl harbor, out of a total of 2,403. Sure it is not a small number, but it is a military only target.
in same wikipedia: the atomic bomb strike killed "at least 100,000 civilians outright and many more over time".
It is my belief that this kind of revenge is unjustified by it self, and that even if the Americans wanted to use their weapons of mass destructions, just because they were the new toys, they could have used them more with sense and killed much less civilians.
As this have played out it was more like "oh you stepped on my feet? So now I will come down and kill your hole family so you can see with whom you're talking."
sure, but if you load the links in the background like I do for instance, google will not know where did you spended the time and will probably think that you liked the last link witch is not necesseraly true.
This could be bad, supose I make a search and open trhee tabs of the first links in the result. Supose then that the first one is the more correct and to the point. For google this is no diferent then:
search ->
see the first page for less then 1sec ->
see the second page for less then 1sec ->
see the third page for a long time (that you spended reading the first page)
all of the euristics of timing is noisy. You can click a link and your phone ring and then discover that you just found out a link farm. Sure these acidents can be separeted from the norm.
But if you can create a site that would lockup the cuser computer, this would be rewarded by google, simply because the users seems to stay reading the site forever, since once they reconect they will have a new IP.
I guess it will not help, since links from slashdot have the rel="nofollow" that make them not valid for ranking. This helps minimize the comentary spam bots that run arround the net. My site was hit ny one of those, two or three times.
If it was just to end the war, why not use a scare tatics? Just throw it in a military target that is in an sparsely populated area, where everyone could see the damage and potency, and then threat to use it in a city.
Using one bomb in a city in a country that was already loosing the war is already unjustified (in my account at least). But why two bombs?
This is much more like "take that you filthy yellow bastards, now you will learn not to play with us might americans" then the "We must end this war quickly". Well sure it had this component also, but it was certainly not the major component.
Some of the tatics detailed in the article require a spyware (google toolbar?). It is not possible for google to know when you came back to the search engine from your site, or another one (unless you have a link in your site to google). It also impossible for google to know if you have a bookmark.
Google does have a click-through engine attached to the results, but many people find this in adition to the single identifier cookie that googles push into you abusive already.
We all thing google is doing a good job, and it did managed to incorporate adds and an add service that is well accepted by the people. (I wonder why people still think it is a good idea to make blinking and noisy flash adds?) The point is how much we trust google? I personaly don't mind very much the click through, but do not accept the cookie and will not install a toolbar.
Have you tried the NetworkManager? It is amazing and beats the crap out of the profile managed network that I saw in Ubuntu. It requires exactly 0 clicks to configure when using a wired network and a few clicks while using the wireless configuration (you still need to choose what net you want to join and configure the keys when it is protected).
I believe that desktop-fedora will walk toward the NetworkManager while the old static configuration would be more fitted to servers that do need static configs anyway.
On the other hand, NetworkManager is not ready, yet, it still don't configure NTP automaticly for instance.
The tracker did not handle the masses of people going after him, it is upto now not accepting any conections. This shows that a trackless BitTorrent is really needed.

A nice hack would be to drop this gecko MSHTML.DLL in a real windows and see if IE would use gecko as a backend. :-P

Following the trend...
I certanly wouldn't trust a 2D ship to float...
Also you don't have to trust only the water company, the treated water has to travel from the treatment unit till your house. How can you be sure that every single pipe is 100% sealed and clean?

this bias, does not disprove the idea. If Dvorak is indeed better for english, it should be quite easy to adapt it to other languages.
The problem here id that every language has it's own compleatly different layout, making moving or visiting another country even harder.

Just for fun, I tested it with my native language as If I were to reply you using it:
:
I costumo to use bablefish, but does not stop the English, who I know well. Use more for languages that I am learning as the Frenchman.
It should be
I usually use bablefish, but not for English, that I know well. I use it more for languages that I am learning like French.
or in portuguese:
Eu costumo usar o bablefish, mas não para o inglês, que eu sei bem. Uso mais para línguas que estou aprendendo como o Francês.
Or worst, because they assume all that is stupid and or nonsense come from america. I am no american either, and frankly I don't love very much the american state right now, but I draw a line when we talk about actual people.

I'm using the official bittorrent, not Azureus. Is seems that this Azuerus is more advanced. But I need a headless or console-only client. :-(
You probably got there first and got the tracker before it was overloaded. :)
I have the torrent, the tracker is not reponding:
