I'd prefer not to give them a reason to go apeshit on me. If the police was coming for me I would try to cooperate fully to avoid getting into even more trouble.
The guy was clearly struggling. For all you know, they were just desperately to finally get him cuffed and under control, because as long as he's struggling he's a threat. The police doesn't want to die any more than anyone else.
He should not have run away from the police or put up a fight to begin with. Police officers are only human, and they don't want to get hurt any more than anyone else does. You run away and try to fight them, and you are asking for trouble.
You attacked the guy for not answering complex questions to your satisfaction. As explained in his profile, he adds people like you to his foe list to keep track of people who do the kind of pathetic low blows that you just did.
Sorry for shouting in the subject, but I am surprised that no one has pointed this out before. Brandt is nothing but a jackass with a personal agenda - to get back at Google for not ranking his lame ass page higher, and Wikipedia for revealing things about him. Good read, by the way:
The thing is, I don't want a separate DVD player. It takes up space, so I use my game consoles for DVDs instead. Why buy a separate DVD player when my console can do it already?
Unfortunately, Nintendo butchered my dream of having a remote control for my gaming console/DVD player...
No. The behavior is: Click a button to switch to a child window. That's what tabs do. That's what Opera does. That's what IE7 does. That's what NetCaptor does. That's what InternetWorks does. Indeed, InternetWorks - "the first tabbed browser" had true MDI, but with... tabs. Exactly like Opera got later, only Opera's functionally equivalent tabs were skinned to look like buttons instead.
Sorry, but you are wrong wrong wrong. "Tabbed browsing" is when you click a button to switch to a tab. Opera has had this functionality for ages. You are artificially narrowing "tabbed browsing" down into something which has got nothing to do with "tabbed browsing" at all. Tabbed browsing is not about window closing order, but about having buttons that are used to switch between child windows.
Fact 1: Opera had multiple pages within the main window before Mozilla.
Fact 2: Opera had buttons you could press to switch between those before Mozilla
Now, you may claim that Opera's window bar wasn't really a "tabbed interface", but you would be looking like a fool. They looked like buttons, but acted like tabs. You clicked them to switch to that page. That's what tabs do. They are functionally the exact same thing.
Yes, Opera has "tabs". Whatever it's called it's the exact same concept: Click a button on a toolbar to switch to that page. Just because they didn't look like tabs doesn't mean that they actually worked differently. You clicked a button to switch to another child window. That's what tabs do.
Now the admins of the proxy server would know your surfing habits instead. Besides, setting up a secure proxy is a hell of a lot more work than simply disabling the anti-phishing feature in Opera.

How's the pay over there at Sony?
No idea why I just wrote that...
The point is, I don't care. I mostly view movies from my hard drive, and the DVD movies I do play directly are the right region anyway.

No, the actual point is that if you are that paranoid, you should know that someone will be able to track you.
The buttons you click to switch between MDI windows have the exact same purpose as "tabs". The look is all that's different.
You must be somewhat thick. The windows themselves aren't tabs. The buttons you click to switch between the child windows are tabs. HTH. HAND.

It had MDI first, and it's the only remaining browser of the first tabbed browsers. InternetWorks is nowhere to be found :)

However, Opera came up with the concept of using them in browsers. A novel idea at the time, and most people had no idea that gestures even existed.
The point is, someone will know.

Which ones? As far as I know, Opera did gestures and popup blocking first.

What logs? Who says that they are logging anything?
As they can with ANY connection which is not secure. What is your point?
