I like the "direction Mozilla has chosen". It's why I recently switched from Chrome to FireFox as my primary browser.
They've lost some market share, sure, but they were losing that long before they rolled out Australis. From the numbers I have, the rate that they're dropping share has slowed (even in the wake of the Eich controversy) and the ground they've been losing has gone near exclusively to Chrome!
You can continue to blame those who say Mozilla has chosen the wrong path.
I'm not blaming them for anything. I think they're a tiny minority of perpetually dissatisfied users that won't be happy no matter what Mozilla does. They whine when features are added, they whine when features are removed, they whine when they don't see any changes and they whine every time a change is made. It's like they need to complain to feel important.
It's more like twelve thousand intelligent comments for every "threat".
Evidence?
I've yet to see an intelligent comment about one of her videos. Can you find even one? All I've seen are insults and threats!
I'd be very interested in seeing a thread consisting of mostly intelligent comments, burying the moronic insults and threats.
I have serious doubts, however, that such a thread exists.

This is one of many reasons why PHP wins out over alternatives.
If you really hate PHP, find a better solution. I'm seeing a lot of talk here about Python and Ruby, but both completely fall flat where PHP excels. Let me know when the catch-up.
But it's significantly less than competing smartphone alternatives in that market. The price is even lower than many feature phones (most, if you only count dual-sim models) at just Rs 2000.
It's still a big investment, sure, but you're getting a LOT more bang for your rupees.
if you just keep looking you will always disprove the null hypothesis.
No, you won't. You can't disprove the null hypothesis. (Er, unless you know the population parameters exactly, but that's pretty damn rare.) There's a very good reason we use terms like 'reject' and 'failed to reject'.
Out of curiosity, why do you call it an "ADD comment"?
While I'm thinking about it, if this is so unimportant to you, why do you continue to engage me?
What to know what I think? I think you're deeply insecure. I think you really need imaginary foes to fight against to make yourself feel important. Why else would you care so much about what a bunch of anonymous people say on a web forum?
Well, considering that you insisted on engaging me several days after I made the post that so offended you, I figured you cared very deeply about my thoughts and opinions.
Your continued participation in this "discussion" seems to support that belief.
I really cannot see how you can continue to pretend that your advice is of any value
Pretend? Do you not think that the ability to ignore uses that cause you serious distress is valuable? It seems to me that that is exactly the sort of advice you need!
It will clearly improve your life significantly. Just think of all the hours of angst you'll spare yourself!
I don't see why I have to put up with condescending bullshit just because I'm not going to roll over when
For perspective: It's the comments section on a website.
A handy tip: You can effectively ignore users by clicking the little "Alter Relationship" bobble beside their name. Then use the Configuring Comments feature to knock your foes down to -6.

Wow, now a conspiracy theory.
I think you've cracked. You really need to learn to let go. Think of your health!
So ... No evidence then?
I'm not surprised.

. It has significantly reduced my ability to customize the user interface of Firefox to suit my needs.
Specifically, how has it reduced your ability to customize the user interface?
What could you do before that you're now unable to do? What need do you have that is not able to be fulfilled?

Highlighting your epic logic fail:
How is someone supposed to present evidence of no evidence?
By providing evidence of the counterclaim.
As for evidence of the threats, here's a post she made on twitter highlighting an example of a specific threat
Yea, like that.
Now go and sin no more.
Mozilla is in a war with its users
Seems to me that the complaints come from a tiny, but vocal, minority.
It doesn't matter what they change, someone like you will treat it like it's the end of the world.
Oh, and heaven help them if they don't make enough changes! The outcry from the same group of perpetually dissatisfied users would be deafening!
1) about:config
2) search for newtab
3) double-click browser.newtab.url
4) Modify to your heart's desire.
If that doesn't satisfy you:
Open userContent.css, add the following:
@-moz-document url("about:newtab") { #newtab-search-container { display: none !important; } }
You're welcome.
I'm perfectly happy with Australis. I even switched from Chrome to FireFox as a result.
What, exactly, do you hate about it? That it looks a bit like Chrome? Lots of people like Chrome's UI.
I see you took the $5 logic class instead of the $10 one...
Only in the imaginary world of Thunderf00t and the MRAs.
I found your "epic fail" above
A bit like your first reply, yes?
The goal is a single, standard, package that runs across all the major platforms.
That's a very good thing.
You've missed the point of Firefox OS -- They win when other platforms allow their app packages.
Philosophically, not financially, of course.

" ... invented a useless steam engine."
How did you make it all the way to grad school without encountering the phrase "failed to reject the null hypothesis"?
Don't universities teach basic methodology any more? WTF?
It gets worse: It was Roman controlled at the time.
