As you can see from the comments, those who weren't there to actually CREATE the WWW as we know it, have the most to say as to what it should be to their pimply-faced, snotty-nozed imitation of a thinking process, powered more by stolen music than by actual analysis.
Well, if they can't get the most complex and difficult part of the browser right, they shoulg go into another line of work, like maybe writing glitch code for Gnome.
I mentioned FONT rendering.... That isn't too difficult. I am aware of W3C standards for site page rendering and I am aware if the issues. All I have to say is that if Moz is incapable of getting the font rendering right, the simple substitution of TT fonts for something readable, the "developers" are greatly lacking in competence. As I have said earlier, Mozilla is totally and completely unuseable for the average Linux user who doesn't feel that 18 hours of tweaking is worth the effort to get ONE page to render readable fonts. IT IS SIMPLE!!!!!!!!!! as proven by virtually all other browsers out there.
Remember the Moz 9.4, where rendering was at least normal??? Since then thousand of geeks all over the world have been going blind keeping up with Mozilla "improvements"..... If thay can't get a SIMPLE thing like rendering right, they are welcomed to KEEP their glitchy browser.
If you use the ext3 FS, and a few other Journaling filesystems under Linux, it can be configured to journal data as well as metadata. This may also work under reiserfs if cache is closed down. Ext3, however, does not require this and works fine for that. Power outages, or red-button reboots are therefore no problem. The OS simply picks up where it left off upon reboot.
Well, Microsoft doesn't know what they're missing.LOL It's hard to believe people like that exist. Phew!!! This renews my lake of faith in "the Law"...
Someone ought to stuff the crapheads of that lawyer and the president of that company's pres in the nearest public, open source, city park toilet. I wouldn't be surprised if that lawyer was paid by Micro$lop Corp. That sounds like one of their typically slimy moves.
The last one looked more like a vacuum cleaner from the fifties than a computer, and this one looks more like one of those motion detectors you screw to the outside wall of the house to detect intruders. WhhhhaaassssUP with dem guize anyways? Are they trying to appeal to the kitsch set, or to everyone with no aesthetic tastes at all?
Good point! and very well said. I myself won't "ban" anyone, not even the "fools & trolls" because I like to be validated in my inherently cynical view of mankind (or adokind) in general.
Good deal!!! I have got (ten) Abi to work with M$ Word by redefining paths. I am sure that total compatibility isn't far if I am capable of that ! lol... They are the best because of their perseverance. They do not say "die" and they are dedicated. As far as plug-ins go, with "wv" one can do wonders.
Why is it that when one simply states the fact that M$ has the historically poorest security record for its products than any other company in the same field of endeavor, that that is automatically "slander," "poor sportsmanship," and "fanatical extremism?" Microhead$ofties seem to consider valid criticism as being somehow "anti-AmericanoApplePieish" for some reason. If you wish to defend sloppy, top-heavy code, immoral business practices, and the fact that M$ customers are the purest of the pure sucker bait available on the market, then you are welcomed to do that. Just don't accuse those who valur truth above money. If I understood you correctly, then we'd better just shut up like M$ said, so that they may keep their flaws in the Redmond Dark, and users like you in their pocket(book).
Answer: simply to try to recuperate a number of M-$lop Windroves users who may not be totally brain-dead after years of Windoze use, and to irritate the M$ un-think tank that creates 1985 style GUI's to appease the yuppi illuminati. Eventually, depending on the curiosity and/or intelligence of the user, the CLI will become more and more an option as the learning process, if it hasn't been totally destroyed by interaction with a stupid OS, beging the long neuron healing/dis-indoctrination process. I am not kidding. Windoze has become like a familiar neighborhood, albeit mental, to many. The use of an over-simplified interface had a subtle brainwashing effect over time, that affects the very core of the "linguistic" learning process. Windowz and M$ apps in general has modified the learning methodology of many people and has interfered with a fundamental learning dynamic called curiosity. Closed code does that. In effect, M$ is saying to users, "It is like that because I told you so. Do not question the wisdom of your elders."
"Security vulnerabilities" is a euphemism for Microsoft Corp. Then again, someone on these/. boards has the following signature: "If security wasn't a superstition, we would find examples of it in nature."
EULA is laughable. It makes me sick to see how poor little Micro$oft hides behind illegal contracting to propagate their hypocracy. And they wonder why they are the hackers' prime target.

...and much STYLE. Be happy! It's your duty.

I second that question. I would really like to see that because I find Solaris to be one of the best networking operating systems out there.
Gravenreuth is a moron. There, I said it, but that doesn't make it true.LOL ...or false.

....of the slime factor network and the association of stupid MS supporters around the world. Yeah!!!!
Maybe if they made one the form of your expanded ass.

A good SMITE filter is hard to come by. Is it GPL'd?

A $3,000 game boy IS NOT ny reality.
Congrats!! That is the most laughable defense of MICRO$LOP products I have ever seen!!!
WRONG>>>WRONG M$ """"says"""" it has released that. It is a lie.

MS patches are getting old too. LOL
In other words, Microsoft fears becoming what it has done to others. Microsoft fears KARMA, the cosmic "get back", Justice, poetic or otherwise....
