    I use all of opera, safari and firefox, I haven't cared to look for any browser specific stuff. I have never used dictionaries, sure I notice all the red lines beneath this and I guess that + all the missing words are the reason I don't care and bother for the lines even when they are correct. Way too many false hits so to speak.

    Some of us probably don't bother that much about the red underline, but more important the ones of us who don't write correct english are probably not native english speakers and therefor use a different vocabulary for our spellchecker.

    Who good is a spellchecker on slashdot if my OS/dictionary spellchecks in swedish?

    Exactly my thoughts, they all got themself to blame since they are the ones who choose their "pigs."

    Anyway, forget about the bad boys, who get the bad girls!?! And how and why!? :D

    Realtime hardware accelerated physics. Used to be on a separate expensive board which few games supported but Nvidia are implementing it on CUDA so it can run on their graphic cards instead.

    Hardware accelerated physical acceleration, gravity and particlestuff if I remember correctly, atleast old examples used to be throwing away items or exploding walls and such.

    So then why care? If it's not a requirement for them to investigating it, but just an extra point just encrypt it and don't care, it's not like it's very likely that they will break the encryption, how long does 2048 bit gpg encryption take to break? Even though they have some CPU power. I guess it would help if the key was different each time though?

    I don't see how that will stop terrorists then. So all they need to do is write in clear text and noone will be listening? Yeah, awesome, money well spent!

    Or does it just add extra points when trying to calculate if it should be recorded or not?

    Sweden have had a right wing government three times I belive. So uhm, yes, I think it's quite safe to say that most Swedes actually want a left wing government most of the time, the others only get a chance when people have become tired of same old and want something new / fresh to happen. Next election it will be left wing again just as normal.

    You aren't forced into any religion, if you are borned a few years ago or earlier you was a member of the swedish church by default and have to pay taxes to them but you can leave them if you want. People here are used to high taxes, they have them now aswell, and for most people the current system probably give them less money since it's much more benefits for the rich and similair or less for the poor.

    I know shit about France, I doubt they have to pray, and neither do anyone here. You are free to have your religious costumes in most swedish schools though, but I don't really see why you shouldn't be allowed to so...

    We removed the christian public holliday 13 days after easterc and added one on our national day instead, which imho was a good thing, we shouldn't focus the society around a religion.

    Both sides can come up with ideas which don't fit their political profile and both sides will just vote against whatever the other side said even if it actually fit their own ideals and so on.

    If that wasn't true how could you else say "But hey, it's all their fault! Look how bad it become!"

    More likely that the only thing they do are to say against eachother instead of the actual idea. That's politics for you!

    Not that I can understand why the left side wanted this crap either, probably because of that (personal preference:) prick Thomas Bodström.
    Some of this work: http://bodstrom.pelpet.com/

    Especially the liberals went to election with lots of talk about more police resources and surveillance.

    Quite funny actually how it's their side doing this considering how much bullshit they have probably spewed over communism, but meaning russia, ddr and china. But their issues in this regard don't come from the economical politics but rather the authoritarian leadership.

    I guess the left side could fix this after the next election but I don't see that happen. So we probably have to live with it.
