Everyone knows that disappearances only matter if the subject is an attractive, young, blond, female. Preferably from at least an upper middle class background.
I would rather say part of the government, but whatever.
Which reminds me of the government man/woman over there which got shoot together with lots of others?
Personally I spend time _IN_ my browser, not starting and quitting it all the time.
And there Safari 2.x and 3.x really sucked, haven't used 5.x so I'm not bashing it. However there are better or worse browsers when it comes to dealing with multiple tabs, load, memory and tendency to crash/stall.
I just switched to Chrome from using firefox for the last what 4, 5 years? I gotta say chrome just seems to make sense. not trying to troll just saying.
Uncomfortable or unfitting comments is always trolling, flamebaits or off-topic as far as moderators go.
Sorry for the disconvenience. And you even dropped one more point until I pressed reply..
(Off-topic I can get, but not everything off-topic is "uninteresting" and I like reading Slashdot comments much more than I like reading the actual articles. But the harsh moderation removes much of the "forum fun"-feeling of Slashdot. Things should IMHO only be moderated troll/flamebait if the intent really WAS to troll/try to upset, and the poster got no intention to care about or read the comments. If it's only "I don't like what the posted said in this comment" then it's not necessary a troll post... )
But whatever. Guess people don't even want freedom of speach even where the government doesn't limit them.
Pop-up a field which gives the link data once you hover links, make a sliding interface at the top of the screen which slides out url- and search field boxes once you raise your mouse to the top of the screen and get rid of all the buttons or do similar sliding features out on the left and right edge.
Voila, 100% website content on the screen.
And yeah, I know it can be disturbing if your mouse hit any of these areas by accident, but I wouldn't prefer a delay. I doubt your mouse pointer got much of a reason to reach all the way out to the edge though (maybe with some web apps? (Should there be any?)) Another issue could be if you don't want your browser covering the whole screen but well, just do it =P
Or people could learn short-cuts: * Mouse over link -> pop-up location field. * Key-G -> Draw a location bar over the content, remove after enter or at a backspace press when there's no content left. * Key-S -> Draw a search bar... * Maybe instead of backspace use Key-Left and Key-Right to navigate back and forward. * Key-B to bring up an advanced bookmark management window over the current content, complete with names, urles, groups, tags, history and live search field,...for easy navigation to what you really want. Together with the smart bar feature of the url bar.
When reading the first post I noticed my Safari 2.x doesn't have a status bar.
Turned out if pops up the location over the link in question (sadly at first after like a second or so, so you have to wait to get the information you want. I have no idea why it can't do that immediatly. Maybe you can set it somewhere?)
Is there any licensing and how does it work? In short please =P
What does Google demand? Anything? Can they always do it or do they enforce the demands by allowing or disallowing their own services such as the marketplace?
1) Be able to install stock. 2) Be able to fetch/reinstall original install / modifications. 3) Be able to patch in whatever hacks or modifications provided from either the company who provided the phone or anyone else.
All they want is:
1) Free OS. 2) Be able to install crapware / branding. 3) Me to get a new phone ASAP.
Exactly, because a competing business model goes like:
1) Convince the users missing features (games, flash,..*) isn't really an issue because if you want to stay true to the brand you should realize you don't really need them. 2) Heck, life is even better without them. Because like, now you know you're superior, because you don't have all that crap you previously thought you wanted! 3) PROFIT!!
Yes, that's right. No step 4.

Must be awesome for the military spending budget though =P
Too bad with all the old infrastructur and equipment just going to waste:)
One thing I thought of, regarding "everyone got a gun in the US", until just recently, like a year ago or so, we had obligatory military service, not a professional hired army. So while fewer people have and carry guns I assume the system is made so that most/plenty of people whould atleast be able to _GET_ a gun =P
Don't know what they should had done vs nukes. But I guess it was a small show off. Also Russia sent a bunch of ships to escort/salvage the sub and probably got a chance to test how easy Sweden would give in. Backed after land artillery radar and such got turned on. "Oh, almost like war for real!?";D
It's so sad we got nothing fun now. No-one gave a shit when some german military ship passed within the borders. Or well, they told them to get out, but that's kinda it. Harsh words don't do much =P, where's the freaking jets?!
What I meant was that geographically it's within europe.
Since europe isn't a nation and all of the countries within europe isn't part of the EU or NATO you can't assume they would do anything together at all.
But if you're speaking of europe instead of EU vs USA then you may have to include Russia anyway.
Sucks that Germany is crippled an all (we to =P thanks to no fear for Russia longer), maybe if they where within their former glory;)
(And regarding troops/civilizians with guns: How easy would it be to invade, claim and hold all of europe?...)
If tweets originate in Europe then I would surmise that twitter must comply with European privacy laws, similar to email.
Nah it's just the other way around. If The Pirate Bay is in Sweden, Bahnhof/PRQ (Swedish ISPs) is in Sweden, Assange is in Sweden, Swedish military is in Sweden, Wikileaks is in Sweden, FRA (the defence radio establishment / intelligence gathering) is in Sweden, Swedish integrity and copyright laws are written in Swedish, _THEN_ they all have to obey to the US;)
Then Europe will send over its vast and powerful army to the US, conquer it, and finally bring democracy to its... er... colonies.
I do understand that the third part is funny, the second part would be needed and make sense even though things are going downhill here to (probably to large extent from US pressure.) But regarding the first part I assume that the total of Europes army is pretty decent? Don't know if it's as big or would top of the US and it's not likely to matter or be a reason to find out.
But yeah, pick any european country and the US got more military power. But put them all togheter?
Especially if you would include Russia in europe obviously =P (Moscow is on europes side.)
Obviously only EU would be smaller.
I have no idea what they mean the consequences would be, or why the US wouldn't be allowed to do whatever they want with people in EU.

Awesomebar rules. Except when someone else is watching and it puts up all sorts of weird crap which I've visited frequently.

there's already an extension to add the status bar functionality back
That why he said:
Fortunately there's an extension that adds the status bar back in.
What I wonder however is:
I wonder how long it be be until they are forced on us and we will have to rely on yet more extensions in order to have a decent browser.
Firefox extensions to get Chrome or Opera installed? I don't get it ;)

I had no idea one of the games wasn't released yet. Heck I haven't even read the fucking article. I think I saw part of some video clips :)
I thought the first game was released on Xbox live.
It's not the first time though, so I'm kinda being a hypocrite.

As I said on Youtube:
Moving on with my development of Ultra man, Leet Fighter II, next up Resilient Evil! ;)
Clearly not the same.
Heck, I can't see any similarities at all.
As if they don't lose that argument already at the name.

Kim Big Dong Long?
Kim Dong-Ill don't sound so good :(
(DON'T FOLLOW THE LINKS IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE STD INFECTED SEXUAL ORGANS. Also wtf anusdiseases? :D)
Right, another block of domains/ip's to add to my blocking list.
Yeah, that will make a difference.
Truly revolutionary!
Just wait until someone announce that they will kill two puppies for every Android phone sold, but only one if you buy their phone.
Now who's the evil guy?!
Is there any licensing and how does it work? In short please =P

All I want for phone OS, iiis:
1) Be able to install stock.
2) Be able to fetch/reinstall original install / modifications.
3) Be able to patch in whatever hacks or modifications provided from either the company who provided the phone or anyone else.

Even so, the Russian military is nowhere near comparable to what it was 30 years ago.
That's why we aren't either =P
Back then kinda isn't the same as now or even somewhat recently.
No party anymore.
Must be awesome for the military spending budget though =P

OK. But what's the battery life?
It's a super-computer squared. Go figure :)
"Considering how poor the PS3 perform vs the Xbox360 it probably pretty decent!"
Nah. Time will tell? Probably decent. Things move forward. Ohnoz, who could had guessed?
Translate PS3 into PC equivalent and try to figure out what processing power would be needed in a portable device to get there.

Such things don't seem to matter to US either..
If only I hadn't wasted my mod points by writing a comment :(
