but where was your false concern when 12 billion went missing in Iraq?
Chump change compared to the Porkulus Bill Obambi rammed through.
As missing? I may have found it. William Jefferson (D) probably has it in zip lock bags in a freezer somewhere.
Or maybe Chris Dodd or Barack Obama have it right next to their AIG and Freddie Mac / Fannie Mae campaign contributions.
Nancy Pelosi was right - there is a Culture Of Corruption. She just got the party wrong - the Dems are the party of corruption.
Yes, for over 2 years now the highest rated television show on the Scf-Fi channel is ECW, a wrestling show featuring the guys who aren't over enough to get on RAW or SmackDown!
That scenario has happened in US Presidential elections before: Most recently it happened in 1996 and 1992 when the Majority of voters picked "Not Clinton" and we got... Clinton.
Thank Ross Perot for splitting the conservative vote in '92 and '96.
The ridiculous escalating hardware requirements of Windows?
Look at Win95, Win98, and WinME. Very similar hardware requirements. Even Windows 2000 and Windows XP didn't have as drastic of an increase in hardware requirements as the difference between XP and Vista. There's just no reason an Operating System should require that level of hardware. Sure, for a game engine you'd expect it, but not for the base OS.
Furthermore, with the economy in a downturn, a lot of people aren't going to want to drop money for a new PC when their current one works just fine. They'll either stick to XP and their current application set, or, they'll switch to Linux.
Opera also released a highly entertaining "Swedish Chef" version of Opera that would seriously screw up the msn.com homepage and intentionally insert "bork bork bork" on the page.
I thought you knew that sperm cells only contain half of a human DNA sequence.
They also do not have blood.
But, I think you did know that, but sadly chose to continue posting your bile and venom towards religion. The Grandparent posters asked what may have been a serious question - though it may have been a troll, so I answered the question.
What's your excuse? Why so much obvious hatred of Christianity? What happened to the liberal notion of "tolerance" and "live and let live"?
What does the Pope say about swallowing live animals?
That it's sinful, in accordance with Scripture.
Genesis 9:3-4 "Everything that lives and moves will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything. 4 But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it."
Since I know someone will bring up the fact that there are some animals humans haven't figured out a way to eat yet, this is God giving us *moral* permission to eat animals.
No, only Simon's Quest counts - since 80% of the clues in that game are misleading or outright false, only Simon's Quest prepares you to deal with management-speak that is 80% misleading or outright falsehoods.
Secondly, you didn't mention anything about software quality, you just categorically stated that there was no browser other than Opera that could do it.
And yet I clarified that to mean "stable" release. Beta software is not a stable release by definition. Yes, you're right, I'd rather run a Firefox beta than an IE release, but to criticize that point is just picking nits.
I guess the Mozilla Foundation just have higher standards than Microsoft and thus don't declare software to be a full release until they have ironed most of the bugs out.
Like that cache memory leak, right fanboi? Oh, no, I'm sorry. They haven't fixed that yet in a stable release version.
I can't see that said anywhere on the site
You apparently didn't look hard enough.
Maybe that information's accurate and maybe it's not.
So, you're admitting that you don't know, didn't see the story on the site, and yet still feel qualified to fame me.
According to the Acid2 site, Safari does not pass the Acid2 test.
Gran Paradiso is alpha software, and as such is not ready for prime time. So while I'm glad that Firefox and other Mozilla based browsers will pass the Acid2 test eventually, the fact remains that they don't have a stable release that passes today, 12/13/2007.
Of course, once KDE4 is out and it's possible to run KDE Apps under Windows with the QT4 support - Konqueror will join Opera in the group of browsers passing the test.
But the default desktop for SUSE Linux (owned by Novell) is KDE... So GNOME uses de Icaza who promotes Microsoft on Novell's payroll which ships KDE as the default desktop, but Microsoft has an agreement with Novell who has de Icaza on payroll and - Oh no, now I'm dizzy!

When Democrats do it, we eject them from the party and prosecute them.
No you don't, you make them Secretary of the Treasury.
will remain ECW.

What Doctor in his right mind is going to prescribe a killing/harming/maiming machine?
Just consider it a really, really late term abortion.
I (unfortunately) use Vista at work. Nice try, troll.
It's also bad news for Microsoft, as a LOT of people absolutely want nothing to do with Windows Vista.
I'm one of them. One box I'm running Fedora 8, and the other box is running MEPIS 7.

Windows ME is better than Vista. Both are complete shit, but at least WinME doesn't require 2 GB to be complete shit.

More on the Opera version...
Read grub's signature, and his comment history, and you might come to a different conclusion on his post and the intent thereof.

It doesn't matter what the player costs when there's little to no content for it.
Especially when Disney is Blu-Ray exclusive - never underestimate the number of parents buying Ratatouille for their kids.

Way to set the bar high, doofus.
Are you running a Mac? This story it seems to work fine on a Mac but fails on Windows.

It's also a way to point out to the uninformed masses that Opera is the only browser for Windows right now that passes the Acid2 test.
;)
Under Windows:
Opera passes, Firefox 2 does not, IE6 and IE7 do not.
Under Linux (Fedora 8):
Opera passes, Firefox 2 does not, Konqueror passes, Epiphany and Galeon do not.
Lynx doesn't either.
I don't have a way to test Safari, but according to the Acid2 site, it fails as well.
but their popularity doesn't match what Fedora and Ubuntu have been able to carve out in the Linux Desktop market.
Funny, when I bought my mother-in-law a $300 Wal-Mart PC, it came pre-loaded with Linspire, a KDE distro.
I promptly removed it in favor of SimplyMEPIS, another KDE distro.
Here's a $199 PC, which runs Enlightenment.
Thanks for the info; but I was really aiming for a +5, Funny moderation with the dizzy comment. :)
Since all recent popular Linux distributions other than OpenSUSE, PCLinuxOS, Mandriva, MEPIS, Knoppix, Freespire (Linspire) and Slackware, you mean?
GNOME is hardly the default, and trying to assert it as such is incorrect.
Ubuntu and Fedora use GNOME, but Fedora ships with KDE, and for the Ubuntu crowd there's Kubuntu...
Novell is on MS's payroll.
But the default desktop for SUSE Linux (owned by Novell) is KDE... So GNOME uses de Icaza who promotes Microsoft on Novell's payroll which ships KDE as the default desktop, but Microsoft has an agreement with Novell who has de Icaza on payroll and - Oh no, now I'm dizzy!
Drew will license it for beer. No worries.
