    Where's the "-1 Autism" option?

  3. The latest in apple web technology on Apple's New Safari Technology Preview Browser Is Aimed At Web Developers · · Score: 1

    It comes integrated with the latest in avant-guarde adblocking technology right from the OEM: whenever you click a link, the whole phone freezes. Apple again proves that they're at the cutting edge of ergonomics and interactivity by proving that the only winning move is not to play.
    It sure feels good to think different.

    On the bright side, they're rewriting the engine, which is long overdue. I think they're still using 15 year old code from Netscape.

  13. Re:Why is this engine significant? on 'Serious Sam 1' Engine Released As Open Source · · Score: 4, Informative

    It was noteworthy by means of throwing hundreds of enemies at you, all with distinct patterns, which forced you to switch between different weapons. The engine was noteworthy for generating gigantic maps and dozens of enemies on screen without chugging, and it managed to do so efficiently on fairly low end systems even at the time. It is also of note that croteam is a small dev house who developed it with really limited resources. Serious Sam is one of the biggest indie releases of all time.

    You seem to be clueless about the game at hand. Perhaps this is research you should be doing on your own.

  15. Irfanview on 9 Open Source Alternatives To Picasa · · Score: 3, Informative

    It's not cross platform, but windows users might want to look into irfanview. It's a really powerful image organizer with editing capabilities and photoshop plugin support.

    You don't really need an add-on to set plugins not to autoplay, it's a setting in most browsers that matter.

  18. I've been using it as my main browser for a few months. While I appreciate the effort to bring the old Opera features back, it's still not there, I don't know if they even intend for it to get there or if they'll work it differently. I can't have single private tabs, or list all the links on a webpage and filter them, set custom CSS per site, etc. It's also quite hefty in the memory department, which was one of the main draws of Opera Presto. As it is, Firefox is a better Opera placeholder than Vivaldi, but they're still running through those snapshots and adding features, so we'll see. The new opera is an ugly skin on top of chromium and the company is being bought by some Chinese ad company, so I wouldn't touch it with a 10' pole.

    As proven before, IP addresses are a really poor way to identify someone. Considering the circumstances, it could very well be a zombie PC in a larger botnet being identified.
