It actually gets better as it goes along, pretty much continuously until the end. At least in my opinion. I'm glad those few minutes are available; it tells people what to expect far better than I could.
I'm willing to bet that Firefox isn't so brain-dead as to allow JavaScript pseudo-urls in CSS background-images. So yeah, it's probably Opera-only. That that CSS works at all in *any* browser is astounding to me.
(Also, Firefox doesn't yet support CSS generated content on arbitrary elements AFAIK, so it wouldn't work anyway.)
I am not sure if you understand the difference in technologies here. First of all it is 16 Gbit and not Gbyte (and next year it will be 32 Gbit). To compete with regular harddisks you are talking about making atleast 80 GByte harddrives.
I didn't read the article (because this is Slashdot and it's not the done thing) but my reading of the summary (which is probably wrong; cf. Slashdot comment above) is that they have a 16 Gigabit chip that will be used in a 16 chip configuration giving 16x16 Gigabits = 256 Gigabits = 32 Gigabytes.
Time is a dimension, but not a space-like dimension. Not surprisingly it's referred to as a time-like dimension. The space-like and time-like dimensions (ie. space and time) are related by a factor of i, the square root of -1. They are not interchangible to the degree that you suggest.
I thought of that. The problem
is, is that my fingernails are pretty much curved, making it tough to glue anything on it. My guess is, is that the base of the nail is flatter, so pulling them out would be the way to go.
What are, are you talking about? Why are, are you duplicating that verb?
the sky isnt really any color...its all about reflections man...
And my t-shirt isn't really blue; it just reflects blue light. What do you think being blue means? Besides, the color of the sky depends more on refraction than reflection.
You would have to wonder how a barred-spiral galaxy could form with the bar sticking out of the plane of the galaxy. Seems pretty unlikely. Astronomically so, in fact.
Who cares what's illegal in your country? I could quite legally pretend to be an American military officer from my comfortable couch here in Ireland. Given that most phishing scams break at least a few laws anyway I don't think they'd be put off by anti-impersonation laws.
If you've wanted to GPL it since the beginning you must surely have some good reason for wanting that, right? Just tell them that reason, focusing on the business benefits. If there are no business benefits and you want to open-source it for idealogical reasons then you might need some help. Find business reasons (by looking at other business-led open-source projects, preferably similar to yours) or give up.
I'm not near a paper dictionary right now and I wouldn't trust Dictionary.com to back me up (because I checked and it doesn't;-)), but around here the word 'superlative' is also used to describe an adjective or other part of speech that describes 'betterness'. For example the 'super-' prefix.
The CSS spec allows extensions as long as the vendor-specific properties and values are prepended by "-[vendor]-", like "-moz-", "-khtml-" or "-opera-". Mozilla uses these prefixes when the developers are working on implementing new features, like CSS3's opacity property. That was named "-moz-opacity" until it matched the relevant CSS3 candidate recommendation closely enough to rename it to "opacity" (the current and final name).
That same design would have been trivial to convert to CSS (dropping most of the extraneous markup along the way) if those experts were able to use the full power of CSS2. Unfortunately a significant number of people use a browser that has yet to make any headway into supporting CSS2. You may be able to guess who produces said browser.
Most popups that get past Firefox's blocker are caused by plugins. Fortunately there's a solution. Type "about:config" into the Firefox location bar. Right-click on the page and select New and then Integer. Name it "privacy.popups.disable_from_plugins". Set the value to 2. The possible values are:
0: Allow all popups from plugins. 1: Allow popups, but limit them to dom.popup_maximum. 2: Block popups from plugins. 3: Block popups from plugins, even on whitelisted sites.
These popups aren't blocked by default because there's no way for Firefox to distinguish a requested popup from an unrequested one when it comes from a plugin. If you use a site that requires popups from plugins then you'll have to whitelist it.
Whooosh! That's the joke going over your head. I know what a popup is. I was trying to point out that most slashdotters don't see them anymore because we use good browsers.
They are collaborating now. Google employs at least two major Mozilla developers, including the Firefox lead developer Ben Goodger. Also the default Firefox start page is hosted by Google and the default search engine is Google.
According to Mitchell Baker--MoFo's Chief Lizard Wrangler and the new MoCo's President--the Foundation already generates revenue through "search relationships". No prizes for guessing who she's talking about.
I don't see the problem with looking at the keyboard. In every other field of work we look at what we're doing. Why not in typing? I mean, it's not as if I have to look at the screen to know what's on there. If I mistype something, I'll notice anyway.
I usually switch frequently between keyboard and screen. I know where all the keys are so I don't need to search for them, but I find it uncomfortable to leave my fingers on the home row in their "correct" positions so I need to glance every now and then to find exactly where to move my fingers.
On the other hand it's almost completely unnecessary to look at the screen when typing. My peripheral vision will pick up any unexpected motion, such as another application stealing focus, so I don't end up typing into the wrong (or no) widget. I look at the screen enough to be able to spot any mistakes that show up there, like the few typos that I don't notice as I make them.
Either way, I still type far faster than I can think, either in English or in code, so it will never be an issue unless I start having to transcribe.
Of course I don't look at the keyboard when playing games.

The sentence is fine.

Why would an LED need a screensaver?
No, he was succeeded in 1991. He's still alive. I'd suggest somewhere for you to look this up, but doesn't that just seem superfluous in this thread?
He may have space madness but that's no excuse for space rudeness.
