  1. Re:Are you kidding me?! on Google Chrome Most Resilient Against Attacks, Researchers Find (helpnetsecurity.com) · · Score: 2

    This is probably how it went...

    Chrome vs Safari and Firefox: Chrome is 1.27% better.
    Chrome vs the retarded Duo (Internet Explorer and Edge): Chrome is 45.9% better.

    "Let's use the 45.9% one."

  4. Re:Open Source is a failure. on Google Chrome Most Resilient Against Attacks, Researchers Find (helpnetsecurity.com) · · Score: 2

    Firefox is but one open source projet. And the failure is not in being OSS, it's in not listening to their users, i.e. the users keep saying for years that your program has memory leaks, that you should fix that instead of adding more bloated features that nobody asked for, and all you do is put your fingers in your ears and go "la-la-la-I can't-hear-you-la-la-la" then of course you're going to fail.

    Not for long. Edge's marketshare is increasing and Firefox's marketshare is decreasing.

    And unless Firefox starts listening to their users instead of doing the opposite, and starts doing that five years ago, they're doomed.

    Chrome, Safari and Edge are the only ones that matter in the real world. Even if you combine both Firefox and Opera they still have less marketshare than any of those three.

    In other words, pretty much totally irrelevant to anything but the Green agenda.

    " Diesel engines emit less planet-warming carbon dioxide than petrol ones, but significantly more NOx."

    So... the green agenda people should be happy with diesel cars, right?

    The biggest factor should be that technology and industries move a lot faster than bureaucrats. By the time laws get passed, what they're trying to regulate has already changed.

    I'm not trying to defend anyone here, but this sentence bugs me:
    "Calibri, which, as it turned out, wasn't even available until after the document had allegedly been signed and dated."

    Should it rather be:
    "Calibri, which, as it turned out, wasn't even available legally until after the document had allegedly been signed and dated."

    Would it be possible he used a pirated copy that was released earlier, making the document legit?
