You mean you can see the Experimental threading indicators? Thats bad - it means the nano threading weaved into the webpage has escaped and made its way into your optic nerve.
In reality I don't know and was wondering the same myself.
The set top recorder unit uses RW disks which appears to be where the problem comes. I've never had any issues burning dvd data or movies onto write once media.
Sometimes it can resync, sometimes it can't. We have had programs showing up lasting -96 hours (or similar unrealistic figures) which were completely unusable.
Mind you, this seems no different to the experience I have had with dvd-rw's. YMMV
Taping with the DVD recorder does not feel as "safe" as with VHS. We have a recorder here and often I wonder if the old model was better designed for the task. It was rare a tape just broke. Sure, it would get slowly grainy and you could basically get one final watch out of them. The DVDs suck because one error can fuck up the entire show.
Actually, I have uncapped 10mb service. The minimum 2mb service is still capped however.

No, firefox ships with an automatically updating local database of phishing sites. You don't need to test every site with google, just use the built in one.
I thought the aim of a phishing site was to circumvent the user? Its not specifically aimed to run a machine exploit (though some will involve overflowing the address bar), but to convince the user they are on a site they assume is safe.
slashdot.com.au might get some folks others might be fooled by slashdot.info or some other variation (like the whitehouse.com former porn site). The attack vector is all in your head.
I noticed a problem before it was identified by the slashdot team. I posted about it a few times and discussed it with some folks. After I posted, the slashdot team put up this article explaining the situation and telling people about it.

Have fun.
How the hell is that offtopic?
We have been using nano particles for centuries and they have existed for much longer.
Wootz is more ontopic than you thought...
The memo is displayed on the front page, however the font size is so small you need an electron scanning microscope to read it.
Oh crap!

Haven't we had nanotechnology for ages?
Didn't I just read something about ancient swords using nanotubes?
Who merged the Linux Genuine Advantage code into the tree?
Come on, speak up - I know it was one of you.

I just looked at a picture of something very similar.
A guy posted a wiki link about Pattern Welding.

I hope NTL hurry up and bring out a PVR.
Anyone got a mirror? ;)
how will homeland security like you bringing home a multi core Fusion through the gates?
"But, but its an AMD processor, built in Germany or Russia or somewhere"
"Teh internet told me it was more powerful than anything else out there."
"It would literally blow me away!"
They are going to warm up a bit of Mars.
Hopefully, they won't "test" it out on targets closer to home first.
Contact AOL, they will point you in the right direction.
BURMA SHAVE!

You can watch videocasts whilst driving.
Its just one of many things possible now with powerful notebook computers and wireless internet.
Right now I am driving down the motorway typing on a full qwerty keyboard and theres no probl%^^^&^!"$^%$[NO CARRIER]
I get spam but delete it without ever clicking.
I've learnt never to click links or open attachments in unsolicited mails.

Its pretty hard to miss.
Here is the hard-coded example of a phishing site from firefox: its-a-trap!.

There is no FUD because it was fucking true.
