  1. Re:Not Even Close! on Opera 9.5 To Fully Support CSS? · · Score: 1

    It's the result that counts ;)

  2. Re:Phew! on Google May Close Gmail Germany Over Privacy Law · · Score: 1

    More like Godwin's meme.

  3. Re:Not Even Close! on Opera 9.5 To Fully Support CSS? · · Score: 1

    Opera was the second browser to pass Acid2. The other ones didn't really pass after all, as they had misinterpreted the test.

  4. Re:Opera allows me to do great things on Opera 9.5 To Fully Support CSS? · · Score: 1

    Yes, because Firefox has already passed. And it also passed Acid2 before the proprietary closed source Opera. Hey, wait a minute!

  5. Re:Go Opera! on Opera 9.5 To Fully Support CSS? · · Score: 1

    No such problems here.

  6. Re:Really ? on Paul McCartney On Music In the Digital World · · Score: 1

    Hezbollah fighters in the wilderness? What do you mean? These terrorists attacked from their own civilian areas and UN bases to draw Israeli fire there!

  7. Re:Or... on Plants 'Recognize' Their Siblings · · Score: 1
    Ethical cutoff point? None.

    I eat what I like to eat, and what's legal. Eating humans isn't legal and I don't think it sounds appealing, so I won't do it. Nothing to do with ethics. If someone wants to eat someone, and some other person donates his body to be eaten, he can feel free to dig right in for all I care. That said, there are some disease related problems with eating one's own species, so it might be wise to avoid it.

  8. Re:Really ? on Paul McCartney On Music In the Digital World · · Score: 1

    I call bullshit. What's documented is that Hezbollah attacked, and then ran away quickly and/or hid their weapons, so that when Israeli troops returned fire they would hit where the Hezbollah cowards used to be.

  9. Re:War crime on Paul McCartney On Music In the Digital World · · Score: 1

    Israel didn't just target Hezbollah, they bombed ALL of Lebanon.
    Er, no. They attacked Hezbollah positions, and they took out targets of military importance.

    Israel *deliberately* targetted civilians in this war.
    No, they did not. Civilians were killed because Hezbollah attacked Israel from civilian/non-combatant targets on purpose, to draw Israeli fire there.

    what we have here is two equally evil (but not equally powerful) terrorist organizations.
    No, we do not, since Israel did not target civilians, but Hezbollah. That Hezbollah chose to use their own civilians and UN bases as shields is not Israel's fault.
  10. Re:Really ? on Paul McCartney On Music In the Digital World · · Score: 1
    You apparently "forgot" this part: "nearby Hezbollah fighters lobbed rockets onto Israeli towns"

    That sounds strangely familiar. Oh yes! Never mind, it doesn't really matter that Hezbollah attacked from civilian areas on purpose to draw Israeli fire there... Israel is evil no matter what!

  11. Re:Mikko Doesn't Really Answer the "Will it Work" on F-Secure Responds To Criticism of .bank · · Score: 1

    No one said that you can't look at everything. The whitelist would be one which would let the browser verify on behalf of the user that the site is valid. The user could still browse sites not in the whitelist, but the browser wouldn't show those sites to be real bank sites.

  12. Re:User's software... on F-Secure Responds To Criticism of .bank · · Score: 1

    Not every browser, just the major ones. And Apple, Opera, Mozilla and Microsoft are already talking together about anti-phishing measures.

  13. Re:Mikko Doesn't Really Answer the "Will it Work" on F-Secure Responds To Criticism of .bank · · Score: 1

    He does answer it, by pointing to browsers working with whitelists. This would of course require the cooperation of browser vendors, but they seem as eager as everyone else to combat phishing. Microsoft, Opera, Mozilla and Apple even sat down together to agree on how to do stuff.

  14. Re:Awesome on Blizzard Announces StarCraft 2 · · Score: 1

    Do you have anything like a Zergling swarm in WC3? It's been a while since I played, but I cannot recall even coming close to that in WC3.

  15. Re:Thats funny...... on Blizzard Announces StarCraft 2 · · Score: 1

    Uh, is this a troll?

  16. Re:Awesome on Blizzard Announces StarCraft 2 · · Score: 1
    NO!

    NOT the WC3 model! How on earth are you going to do the Zerg swarm with the WC3 model?

  17. Re:Funky on Scientologists In Row With BBC · · Score: 2

    Has Slashdot ever had a run in with Islam? Seems like people here are a lot more skeptical of the idea that Islam is a murderous cult than Scientology.
    Uh. All religion is evil. But Islam doesn't have a governing body which enforces copyright for its religious texts. Muslims have no reason to try to smack down Slashdot with a DMCA notice. In fact, Muslims would love it if you read their holy texts because they think you'll be converted.

    So basically, the comparison is useless.

  18. Re:BitTorrent Inc. concept flawed from the start on BitTorrent Inc. Introduces Ad-Supported Downloads · · Score: 1

    Opera is gaining users, according to Net Applications, and has been steadily doing so for years. According to the 4th quarter results for 2006, Opera Software also saw an increase in desktop revenue of more than 100%.

  19. Re:Even if he's right, he's wrong... on Dvorak to Apple - Stop The iPhone · · Score: 1

    Only a really boneheaded company will lose nerve after wasting a ton of money on R&D, advertising, and strategic partnerships.
    Not necessarily. If a project turns out to be a bad idea it might be a better idea for the long term to simply drop it. Don't fall in love with an idea. If it's a bad one, drop it. It might have cost you to develop it, but it'll cost you even more to spend more money, time and resources to going through with it. No idea if this applies to the iPhone, though...
  20. Re:The Past... on Why the PS3's February Sales May Be Misleading · · Score: 1

    developers are already complaining that they're reaching the limits of what the Wii can do
    Really! And who are these developers? Certainly not anyone who has produced anything so far, considering that NO Wii game we know of (including those that are yet to come) have better graphics than PS2/GC games.
  21. Re:In firefox... on Opera's Slashdot Easter Egg and Speed Dial · · Score: 1

    Ah, bookmark nicknames. Another feature Firefox "borrowed" from Opera :)

    Trial = beta.

  23. Re:The Wii Dissalusionment Reaction Graph on The Wii - Is the Magic Gone? · · Score: 1

    Ok, so lightsaber / sword type games aren't going to work that well. The Wiimote isn't 1 to 1 movement mapped.
    Says who? It already is in Wii Sports Baseball, and developers are saying that it can be incredibly accurate. It's just that perfect accuracy doesn't always mean fun.

    I know it can be hard to deal with the fact that Wii is owning the other consoles, but try to live with it without making yourself look like a complete ass.

  24. Re:put-down article on The Wii - Is the Magic Gone? · · Score: 1

    The inability to put units on shelves is just that.
    But that isn't it. Nintendo is putting units on shelves all the time. The "problem" is that they are bought the moment they arrive. This isn't a bad thing for Nintendo at all. It shows that there is still a LOT of excitement for the system. Only a moron would claim that selling well is a bad thing.
  25. Re:Gimmick on The Wii - Is the Magic Gone? · · Score: 1
    That must be why it's impossible to buy a Wii anywhere in the world.

    As for playing hours on end, did you actually TRY? I've been playing the heck out of Zelda for hours on end, and it doesn't get tiring at all.

    I know, I know... I'm feeding the troll...
