That blog post keeps a little bit of hope alive, but honestly it also raises alarm bells. It's clear they are moving ahead with a strategy that they have not clearly thought out. The good news for us little folk is that they are doomed to fail with the current approach.
Our big fear is that, once we provide a WebExtensions API, there won’t be anything to motivate people to switch over to it.
They are right to be afraid, because without a clear answer to this, that is exactly what will happen.
Kind of sad that they will spend so much time on a failed effort, but it's not my money and not my effort.
For me it is "Tree Style Tabs". Unfortunately, Mozilla plans to phase out the current extension framework in favor of something more along the lines of what Chrome does - so we'll both be screwed shortly. But in the meantime, Firefox's killer feature is its extensions.
Email is the new "box of letters". It can be fun and sentimental to go through old correspondence. When you die, your kids will have fun reading your old emails if they can figure out your devious passwords.
Yes - almost any email client (from the last, what, 20 years?) can handle IMAP. Fire up the old mail clients that produced each archive format and drag everything over to the IMAP server. You could even drag it all over to Gmail.
I use Windows every day, and very frequently use Remote Desktop - both to work from home and to work from the lab. I have no idea what Continuum is, and so I looked it up. It seems like it's just a fancy way of saying that your device can look like either a tablet or a desktop without changing the OS - but that is not exactly worthy of geek-slobber. Is this news item really "You can now remote desktop from your tablet!"? I'm... underwhelmed. Teamviewer, Chrome, etc. have been able to do this for a long time and they are free. They also work without abandoning Windows 7.
Yoda slowly lifting a small ship was very cool to my 10 year old self, but did not really explain why the Jedi were feared and admired. Episode I showed them kicking ass and taking names.
Maybe it was better left to the imagination, but I was trying to find some bright spot in that movie.
The Phantom Edit is worth a download. It's a cut-up version of Episode I that is not too bad. Episode I at least showed us why the Jedi were so cool - the first three movies... the Jedi did not really impress other than Mr. Emperor Lightning Bolt, and he wasn't even a Jedi.
I had a tantrum? No, I just didn't buy (or rather, whine until my parents bought) any Jedi toys. Everything is subjective, but it's pretty hard to find people who consider Jedi to be stronger than Empire.
They were the worst UNTIL Jar-Jar. They did spoil the anticipation felt after Empire, that's for sure. I was only 8 when that movie came out - but I was probably 9 or 10 before I saw it on TV. That's when I officially felt too old for Star Wars. And I was still playing with GI Joe and Transformers.
yet the criminals still had no problem acquiring them from outside sources
No problem? It's a hell of a thing to get a gun in the UK. Yes, criminals can and do get them - but not your low-level drug dealers who do the majority of the shooting in the US. They can't afford them. You had to very carefully word your language to make it true, but even so it is extremely misleading.
I know I shouldn't feed the trolls... but on the off chance that you are ignorant and not just an angry little elf.
He didn't go "full on Republican retard" - he knew he could not get a binding treaty past the Republican-controlled Senate. This forced him to sign an agreement that is non-binding. If that single word had been allowed to pass, it would have triggered a Senate vote and inevitable rejection of the entire agreement.
But the summary states first that it will be a 900 acre foot print
Unless they changed the summary or article, nowhere does it say "foot print", "footprint", or anything like that. It says both 1.5 million square foot and 2 million square foot, but nothing about the building footprint.
Isn't that a semantic difference? Sure, you'll throw a little embedded firewall in front - almost certainly with VPN. But it's not as if those little firewalls haven't had vulnerabilities, and the windmill itself is still a "thing" on the internet.
Historically, they do build multiples - they just don't launch them unless they have to. You can see some of these extras when you visit the Air and Space museum, or some science museums. I suppose if a mission absolutely, positively could not fail you might try to launch them simultaneously - but most of the time, Venus ain't goin' anywhere.

Grub does, in fact, go 1.98, 1.99, 2.00, etc.
I think so. I bought my copy many years ago on eBay :)

Ah, so it's a Windows Phone thing. No wonder no one knows what it is.
I'll hold on to my geek card for now.

That's great, but I wasn't replying to you.

This is why I only drive directly into the wind.
Gah, make that 2.5 and 3 million.

If only there was a way to construct buildings vertically, so that more square footage could come magically from the air...

It hasn't been 3 days, but here's your test.
By the way, have you heard of Tab Grenade? It's a Firefox extension which may work well for your workflow...

Yeah, those robotic missions to the outer planets probably would just happen on their own.
