    You can't use the whitelist, true.
    Fortunatly for you, the whitelist and the headers are not the same.
    (You wouldn't be trolling, right?)

  2. Re:LGPL from Wikipedia (GFDL typo?) on Internet Archive Opens Crawler Code Under LGPL · · Score: 1

    Are you trolling?
    why would their crawler not be code?

    Problems,
    you need to reverse word letter order,
    but numbers are written left to right, while punctuation mostly stays in place

    Unfortunatly, being good enough not to be traced means they're also good enough not to get $200

    Nope, I don't.
    Lesse, from my mail filtering rules,
    allow \.t?gz$
    allow \.bz2$
    allow \.sit\.bin$
    # Allow repeated file extension, e.g. blah.zip.zip
    allow (\.[a-z0-9]{3})\1$
    # Deny all other double file extensions. This catches any hidden filenames.
    deny \.[a-z][a-z0-9]{2,3}\s*\.[a-z0-9]{3}$

  10. slight mistake in the feature comparison page on Three New Releases (And Other News) From Mozilla · · Score: 1

    hrm...
    Opera's tabs work in all windows, the comparison says they must be opened in the same one.
    Opera has the "Automatic Downloading" feature, as Quick Download(also has the ability to set this per (file/mime)type)
    it also has a password manager, which is most definatly there.
    some fact checking would have been appreciated.
