Well since it's running Linux, chances are it's either ext2 or ext3. I would think a journaling filesystem would be a better choice though if say the batteries died while being used. Because if it shutdown improperly and a manual fsck was needed, I wonder how that would be handled.
Don't draw any conclusions you don't have to. I love Mozilla, too, but Apple made a decision, and one which even most Mozilla developers feel was a valid technical choice, even if it wasn't the one they themselves would have made.
Specifically that Apple's own HTMLDisplay framework is not that good. Which makes KHTML a much better candidate than Gecko as a replacement. Especially when it comes to embedded uses. IIRC, Sherlock uses KHTML too.
I've been using Chimera [mozilla.org] nearly exclusively for months. The Dec. 20 release (vers. 0.6 + a few features) is the nicest so far. What a development curve in the past year compared to the much older Opera and iCab!
I agree completely. Some real strides are being made by the Chimera development team. I'm using a nightly build from 01/13/03 and it's getting better feature-wise while still retaining a small footprint.
Although I haven't used Safari, I have used Konqueror and I don't like the feel of the way things are rendered, not to mention the dodgy output.
FWIW, there are a couple programs I've seen on Version Tracker that deal with this. One is Safari Masks and the other is SafariNoBrush. And because I got a pile of links, here's one to a Chimera theme program called ChimerIcon which not only themes, but helps to enable an Image Blocking feature with it's own preference pane.
To be specific, it was when Chia was going through the formal introductions with the Lo/Rez Japanese fan club that she rented some clothes. When she entered the walled city, she was merely a ghost like prescence IIRC. Makes sense as she's not helping to support the load of rendering her in a higher resolution.
I wonder if there's a way to build a mmorpg system that doesn't require central servers, but could exist on thousands of p2p machines. As pc's log on and off, the load is moved around.
This is exactly how the Walled City from the book Idoru was run. The idea itself is quite inspiring. Kind of a utopia in some respects. To the extent that everyone in Walled City had to care about what was going on as they're all supporting the load. Because of this, it's a place where only otaku live.
You know I have to agree, in a slightly different sense though. I've read his second trilogy (VL, Idoru, ATP) backwards then forwards. It amazing how certain subtle details can illuminate so much when approached differently. Definately gained a deeper appreciation this way.
A little off-topic, but the US Government is guilty as all hell of something like this. The similarity being they've given away _weapons_ to all sorts of crackpots for purposes of causing 'ill'. So I don't think these companies should have any flack dished their way for supplying a technology to China. Who has their policy of filtering in place, and will continue to do so whether these companies sell them technology or not.
