  1. Re:So how long... on Firefox 3.0 Makes Leap Forward · · Score: 1

    Opera won't even be a minimalistic contender until they add proper SOCKS proxy support into the damned thing. Imagine ... a modern browser without that functionality

  2. Saving ... it's SAVING! on 'Daylight Savings Bugs' Loom · · Score: 1

    For the love of all that's unholy, it is called Daylight Saving Time not Daylight Savings Time ...End of Line...

  3. Captchas on HTML Encoded Captchas · · Score: 1

    I loathe CAPTCHAs in any form. People who are blind or, like me, totally colourblind have no functional means to figure out just what in the hell we're supposed to "see" in them. Some places have noted this and added audio versions but the majority of sites using CAPTCHAs do not bother. For those webmasters thinking of using CAPTCHAs - there are a lot of us out here who are visually disabled and, um, we have money to spend with your competition if you can't at least meet us halfway.

  4. Re:jumping ship on Livejournal Bans Ad-Blocking Software · · Score: 1

    Just a slight correction here - if a free account user views the journal of someone with a Sponsored+ account, they will see the ads. Livejournal's own information supports this as fact.

  5. Re: Opera to Stop Spoofing User Agent as IE on Opera to Stop Spoofing User Agent as IE · · Score: 1

    Fwiw, I use Firefox because I can change the UA to whatever I like ... not just three preselected options as with Opera. At the moment I'm using Googlebot's UA just to be a [censored]. But I have about 40 different ones based on my own personal moods. Try that with Opera - oh, you can't. Nevermind. If website authors would just stick to the standards and web browser authors would stick to the standards these submoronic browser issues would fade faster than a fart in a stiff wind. https://www.cotse.net/ - which, btw, is functional with EVERY browser including Lynx!

  6. Re: Ekush: A CherryOS For the Windows World? on Ekush: A CherryOS For the Windows World? · · Score: 1

    Well, let's be fair here. If Ekush wants to be exactly like Windows, do they not need to steal other's source code just like Microsoft did? I mean, just to be compatible or whatever...

  7. Re:Democrats are the party of intimidation on DNC and Voter Suppression · · Score: 1

    You give a lot of interesting comments but I see no proof of any of your statements. Tsk. Not even a link to proof. The problem as I see it isn't about Dem vs. Rep. It's about how people think those are the only two options available. Screw the Dems and the Repubs before they screw you. Or live in the same paradigm forever. Your choice - where available.
