What's the point of a tab bar, when you have always one single tab in it?
Perhaps a subtle way of saying to your users: "Pssst. You can open up tabs." If they're hidden by default (as, for example, in Firefox), a user could go for months or even longer without even knowing they were there.
The cynic in me (see sig) wonders if it's actually because the rendering gets b0rked when you reduce the window height to display the tabs...

It wasn't news two days ago? Or perhaps BBC News is considered less credible than CNET? I really do wish they wouldn't whore for submissions on the front page and then shitcan the ones they get. It really pisses me off.
...for anyone who pushes their mouse around with their tongue.
I'm surprised, though, that the marketing idiots didn't come up with an ant-terrorism angle - after all, if your mouse kills little bad bug things it'll Keep You Safe(tm) during a biological attack!

"The virus particles that are released are, like, sterile" ...and this is a scientist? We're doomed.
Like the signs on the CCTV? "...for the purposes of public safety and crime prevention."
You could drive a bus through that, comrade.
Let me just say, at this point, that I love the Politblairo and am a loyal citizen of the Union of Soviet Socialist Kingdoms.

Yep - it's the dupe that worries me...
...how about a one-click option to turn that on its head when you're moderating?
That way, you're more likely to see the real gems that need to be promoted, and to spot the trolls at 1 and 0 that need to be smacked down.
That sounds almost counter-revolutionary... Remember, Comrade, that the Politblairo has eyes. Even on Slashdot.
(I'm also in the USSK.)
Similar thing happened to me - I sent a cheque for £0.00, with "bugger-all" written in full, and got a very amused and apologetic phone-call. :)
Amateur :P

Ah, so you like submarine movies?

DreamWeaver should be "Software for Designing HTTP/XML Format Documents for Internet Usage"
It should be. But whatever DW spits out barely qualifies as formatted...
TFA: The experiment was actually part of a project to find new, more predictable ways to make fullerenes
...and then this happens. Back to the drawing-board, guys!
I guess that's the nature of science, though - it's the surprises that are most interesting.
Of course it's a good idea! Ship all the evil nukuler stuff to Mars and the terrrrrists can't get their hands on it!
For now.
And in the front, the passenger could get a DVD while the driver gets boring stuff like fuel consumption, speed, etc.
"ant-terrorism", that's a good one. :P Make a mouse that can kill ants, and I'll buy it.

Hey, stop trying to mussel in on the fish!
Thanks :) I've learned something today.

Is Soviet Russia in that?
Another year gone by, and a million Slashdotters still haven't "buried their treasure"...
Isn't it amazing that, surrounded by billions of dollars' worth of space station, their first inkling of a problem still came from their noses?
You could get fly-back, if you used it to cool a CRT. Chardonnay, I'd recommend keeping that well clear.
I call the UK the Union of Soviet Socialist Kingdoms - and people laugh.
Sure, you mentioned the foam, but I bet you didn't find a way to blame SCO and/or Microsoft... MOD PARENT DOWN! :)
