I'd much rather spend 45 minutes illegally downloading some crap rip that has unnerving commercials for places that don't exist in my area than have a cheap machine do it for me automagically.
See, Firefox is more secured because it's OPEN SOURCE. They've got this thing called a bugzilla (just msn search for it) and when dudes try to pull bogus shit on the bugzilla it's all like oh HELL no you're not putting that bullshit code in my grill. Also, when something sucky gets by (I don't know, maybe the bugzilla has bugs or something) it's always discovered by developers first and they fix it just hella fast. There's dudes there that can fix bugs in like.0002 seconds and everybody automatically knows to go get that update. With microsoft they have bugs that are like fifty years old and they're just all hell no we're not fixing that shit, we already got the money.
It's the same thing with linux. Did you know that linux is impossible to hack? It's true. One time these guys set up this linux box and were offering hella money if somebody could hack it, but nobody could and it just goes to show that open source is for the win!
Compare that with Windows where as soon as it boots up it's all "Initializing all kinds of spywares and shit cause you got hella hacked up just for using your browser."
Having spent considerable time editing (legal) porn pictures I wouldn't normally look at for my paycheck, I can confirm that after a few seconds, it's just pixels. I couldn't describe the scene in any photo I edited. They just didn't register as images to me.
It's not as if the *AA's anti-piracy forces were formerly Keystone Kops. They're not bumbling around trying to find out where those darn pirates went. In fact, they're probably hep to the latest craze before we are. They're simply being methodical, collecting solid evidence against a site owner before they announce their lawsuit in public. It would be pointless for them to sue a site owner they really don't have a case against, so they bide their time.
If you're looking for an interesting way to see what cubicles are like in other countries, by all means this is for you. Otherwise, like he said, it's all the same.

The ice cream is only free if the time it takes you to get to the store is worth nothing.
"...would be interested in a feature that allows us to filter subscribers comments from non subscribers"
You mean like the one they already have?
In the case of bloggers: "First they don't read your blog, then they laugh at your blog, then that's pretty much it."
Comparing the "blogging phenomena" to the Indian independence movement is a fine way to illustrate your massive sense of self-importance, though.
"Fix it yourself because - 'they' - will never hold your hand until it works just nice and peachy the way you personally want."
I'm sure a good deal of Firefox's acceptance can be attributed to developers/people in the know not having that shitty attitude.
Do you drive by stranded motorists and scream at them for not being mechanics?
Goes to show you can't please everyone, I guess.
Mac guy: All these themes suck!Linux guy: Man, why can't we get those sexy mac themes?
Have you seen the GrApple themes?

Is there a different portable filesystem type they should be using?
The "blogs aren't news!" meme is so January.
Be ready for March, we all decide that Firefox sucks for some reason.
just hit that site and found out HST killed himself.
well...shucks. it do bring a tear to the eye.
I've been using Firefox since before the web was even invented, and the ladies flock.
The last thing we want to see is more people using Linux.
Frickin' noobs, eh?
It really sucked when they had their jackbooted thugs kick down my door, hogtie me, and install their extension.
Even worse: for some reason I can't uninstall it!
Oh the humanity!

ahem.
1966-68 or so.
They're entirely mechanical, the aftermarket is huge, and they're fairly reliable.
yep
That is all.
oh wait, there's a fucking shit ton of sites that use it.
other than that, i don't know why you'd want flash.

You're the 10,000,000,000th person to point out that the 15 gig iPod is only $50 more.
You obviously don't understand who the mini is being marketed to (hint: not geeks).
If you fired me I'd tell my dad!
and you're still a moron.
