    By default, build in functionality to hunt down every little extension that covers all that extra functionality.
    By default, include the functionality... as extensions. That way you can disable or uninstall a feature you don't want. Maybe the installer (in Custom mode) could even ask which of these features you want installed initially.

    The phrase "the iPod generation" means to me a bunch of kids who are pure consumers. They produce nothing I want.
    This indicates that the "people" you currently develop "for" do produce something you want. So, what is it and why do you think the "iPod generation" can't produce it?

    Obviously you don't speak for anything resembling the majority of Linux devotees, otherwise we wouldn't constantly be bombarded with "this is the year of Linux desktop". On the other hand, there seem to be plenty of people who would rather a person use Linux than like Linux...

  11. At least one bad aspect.... on Opera 9.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Most people won't care, I'm sure, but Opera's cookie management, while better than Opera 8.5's (which was pretty damn useless), still fails to be of much use.

    Good: You can actually do whitelisting now.
    Bad: ...sort of. It seems like the "accept all cookies" and "accept only cookies from the site I visit" do the same thing, because even with the latter I get a bunch of cookies from the advertisements Slashdot displays. This just doesn't happen on Firefox.

    It seems that, when it comes to cookies at least, Opera doesn't differentiate between the site you're visiting and the server that feeds ads to that site. It's a damn shame...

    If you don't have to "work" for the fun, the fun won't be as good.
    That depends on what the "work" is.

    If the game wants me to do the same damn thing over and over to unlock something, I might try 2 or 3 times. If I don't get it, fuck it. Now, if the game requires a certain number of "points" that can be aquired over various activities, then I'm a lot more open to the "unlockable content" idea.

    Umm, like to defend our country, stuff like that. So no jets were scrambled. They Stood down. You don't find the least problem with that?
    Do you have any idea what NORAD was supposed to defend against before 9/11? Apparently not...

    NORAD was charged with the identification of and defense against incoming, external threats to the United States.

    And, no... NORAD did not stand down.

    Since then, Silverstein, the owner, has admitted he had the building "pulled".
    False. "Pull" is not a demolitions industry term for explosive demolition; "shoot" is the term. "Pull" refers to mechanically demolishing the building using a wrecking ball of cables, etc. Additionally, Silverstein was talking to the fire commander about the firefighters around WTC7 and their effort to do whatever it was they were doing: "pull [the effort]".

    . . .y'all will come up with another theory anyway, and disregard the plain facts as usual.
    lol. I'm sorry, aren't you the one that just demosntrated a total lack of understand in regards to NORAD's pre-9/11 mission? Really, who's the one misinformed or uninformed here?

    Fact of the matter is, analysts were able to get a *few* peices of steel, and yes, it took a while to clear the site, but the fact of the matter is the area was completely closed off, and the steel *was* sent to India and China to be recycled.
    I never said the steel wasn't sent to foreign countries, so I don't know what your point is in mentioning the that. As far as your "*few* pieces" statement, so what? We have at least one investigator stating clearly that what they analyzed was enough. No one but the conspiracy theorists think this is questionable. Why? Because they need it to be. You're grasping...

    Do the research, or at least read the work of people have, rather than regurgitating the govt approved "story".

    There have been many other fires in predominately steel buildings, and none have collapsed, especially after one hour or even ten hours of fires.
    None of them were constructed like the WTC buildings, either.

    How is it possible that every building that fell came straight down?
    Whoa. You expect them to defy gravity? Straight down is the only the these buildings could've fallen.

    When the second tower was hit, the plane didn't hit close to the center as the first one did. Wouldn't the concentration of jet fuel cause one side of the building to collapse and then fall over?

    You mean like this?

    How is it possible that all three buildings fell in nearly perfect symmetry?
    Because only the conspiracy theorists seem to think it was with any kind of symmetry. WTC7 certainly didn't collapse with any kind of symmetry. That's clearly visible from the very video you link to. Once of the mechanical penthouses collapses into the building. Roughly 5 seconds later, the other penthouse collapses, immediately followed by the rest of the building. Additionally, these video frames show that WTC7 wasn't perfectly straight down collapse.

    No, Sir. YOU are not understanding. The government came and forcefully seized the videotapes from several private establishments. Any right they had to release the tape was trampled upon. They were never given a choice and are not allowed to have their own tapes.
    At the time, no, because it was potential evidence in a future investigation. Why is evidence gathering suddenly a suspicious activity?
