On firefox I customize my layout; I have one toolbar, with the following elements:
Menu (file, edit, etc), Fwd/back buttons, reload, stop, home, address bar, search bar.
I use Tree-style tabs (widescreen monitor). I have more usable space this way. I don't know why default installs want everything on their own bars, it does not make sense.
The smart thing for an employer to do would be to ask, then not hire anyone who gives the password. Or send them for special training about never sharing passwords. An employee who gives out passwords is a major security threat.
Why punch or kick the face when you can gouge out the guy's eyes? Why should she fight "fair" instead of trying to STOP the attacker?
Since you do not know the intentions of the attacker the ONLY valid response is to use maximal force until the attacks cease. Eyes, knees, groin, & neck are the targets. From what one of my female friends has experienced men make an interesting gurgling sound when you plant a spike heal clear through their instep.
My Jr. High chem teacher had a string of balloons for her birthday, above the desk anchored at both ends. Reasonably normal. Until the janitor walked in, and the lit taper-on-a-stick hit the first balloon. Then it came out that they were all filled with a 2:1 Hydrogen:Oxygen mixture.
E&/[ahb5XN*uGH#!?R=(Ak"SI@d6_f is a strong password (192 bits of entropy, 30 characters randomly chosen from all ASCII printable chars.) supercallifragilisticexpialidocious8*antidisestablishmentarianism, despite being longer, is not. If your password is smaller than your key, it is easier to attack than brute forcing the key, so "just" generate an ASCII representation of the key and memorize that. I use KeePass with such a password (40 random ASCII characters, for 256 bits of entropy) to keep from having to memorize too many of these.
I never curse at my computer, since I do not recognize any words as bad, save for "Belgium" (Sorry).
I have called it a festering monstrosity born of the nightmares of Von-Neumann and Lady Ada...
I had a little shoggoth,
I conjured up one day,
I used an elder sigil,
So shoggoth and I play.
Shoggoth shoggoth shoggoth,
With mouths and pseudopods.
Shoggoth shoggoth shoggoth,
Foul creature of the gods.
One day when we were playing,
My monstrous pal broke free,
I dropped my elder sigil,
And shoggy turned on me.
Shoggoth shoggoth shoggoth,
He ripped me to a shred.*
Shoggoth shoggoth shoggoth,
We played and now I'm dead.

We can't kill viruses with anything but the immune system anyway. Vaccines just "prime" everyone's immune system to recognize the virus so it responds faster and you don't get sick/get less sick...
Sober! Why, most north americans will spend at least 10 seconds before they start thanking people. If you can't get a minimum of four shots in then you haven't lined up the pre-poured shots right!
When you roll a die once, you get a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. 6 possibilities, 1 result, so 1/6 chance of rolling 6.
When you roll a die twice, you get 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 1-5, 1-6, 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4, 2-5, 2-6, 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, 3-4, 3-5, 3-6, 4-1, 4-2, 4-3, 4-4, 4-5, 4-6, 5-1, 5-2, 5-3, 5-4, 5-5, 5-6, 6-1, 6-2, 6-3, 6-4, 6-5, or 6-6. 36 possible sequences, 1 result of 66, so 1/36 chance of rolling 66. 1/(6*6)
When you roll 3 times, you get 1-1-1, 1-1-2, 1-1-3, 1-1-4, 1-1-5, 1-1-6, 1-2-1, 1-2-2, etc...1/216 chance of 666.
When you roll 6 times you have 1/(6*6*6*6*6*6)=1/46656 chance of getting 666666.
Firefox started as a lightweight browser because Seamonkey was bloated. The addons system was designed so that new functionality could be added. They then added new functionality to the base system, instead of using on-by-default addons. The system should have been kept as minimal as possible, and just shipped with a bunch of default addons.
Actually, you never get unlimited data.
Let's take LTE's theoretical max download rate of 326.4 Mbit/s.
30 days in a month * 24 hours in a day * 60 minutes in an hour * 6 seconds in a minute = 2592000 seconds in a month.
326.4 * 2592000 = 846028800 Mbits, / 8 = 105753600 Mbytes. Assuming MiB, not MB, that's about 101 TiB of data per month.
A more than reasonable amount, clearly, but also nowhere near "unlimited". The shannon limit means that no "unlimited" plan will ever be truly unlimited.
Say firefox includes H.264. If they do, and they can pay the license, am I granted the right to modify their implementation under the terms of the mozilla public license? No. I cannot do so, without paying the fee. Since not everyone with access to a computer can pay the fee it is not open to all people. Thus, it is less free. It is open, yes, but it denies the right of those who cannot pay the fee to make modifications to the work. THAT is why we dislike it, even if the fee were but a few cents it is still using money to lock out the poor.
Or a good air-cooling system. I have a core i7 930 and a radeon 5850, and my pc hits about 23dB at idle, 26 under load iirc. Antec P183 case and a scythe mugen2 heatsink/fan end up quite quiet. Properly using baffles in a good case can redirect the airflow to be more efficient with less turbulence, leading to vastly decreased noise, even compared to other systems with large (120mm) fans only.
"The Public" doesn't buy operating systems, they buy computers. Until their Windows XP computers break or can't run some new software they want they won't buy new computers, and thus won't get Windows 7.

Most drive failures seem to happen at boot time (at least with your normal spinning rust type.)

You mean MS-DOS wasn't a Denial Of Service OS?
No, no, it's the People's Front of Judea!
Flip-phones, slider phones, and other phones with hardware keyboards have a major disadvantage: moving parts.
It changed, they now only ask if you are returning something, or buying a service that needs it.

Moving one city of people temporarily is far easier than moving hundreds of cities permanently.
No, it really is tax. CA taxes the initial price, and any rebates, even "instant" rebates don't reduce the tax value. The state is still broke.
I could care less, since my care level is currently epsilon.
Shortest math joke: epsilon 0.

FWIW, it's the same cap T-Mobile implements in the US.
