Since it is a plugin and not a part of Firefox, no. This is one of the best advantages of a plugin architecture. You can allow controversial functionality, like adblock, to be added and avoid consequences. They may go after the plugin writers, but so what? Even if they stop them, 10 more would probably be released, especially if the original implementation is open source.
Agreed, however, gay == homosexual. A pedophile can most certainly be homosexual (preference to boys). They are not mutually exclusive. The grandparent post mentions people that have both these qualities, and does not state a relation to them. However in context I understand your objection now, as the grandparent post uses gay-pedophiles as an example of gay on straight crime. I object to this as well since sexual prefrence has nothing to do with the crime.
I have nothing against gays btw, I just like logic.:)
There is already an app called Gmail Filesystem that lets you use a gmail account as a drive. It's implemented in python so it shouldn't be difficult to modify it to do what you suggest.
One of my solutions takes into consideration LEDs or bulbs that you can't measure the heat. You are right though, it is not a math/logic problem, it's an engineering problem. Thats why "...people...ordinarily good at logic have so much trouble with it."
Usually you can tell when a filiment has been on for a while by looking at it, even if it is not burned out yet (it looks kind of ragged and the bulb is grey from evaporated tungsten being deposited on the glass), unless it was severely undervolted. What about the case where you get to the other room and find that the bulbs are actually LEDs and they are all cold. LEDs get dimmer over their life, so the dimmer one would be the one that was left on.
Solution 2 can be made more reliable by not leaving the room until you are about to die from old age. (I will get this right, even if it's the last thing I do!). Unless they are undervolted leds, then you are screwed.;-)
Interesting problem, I think engineers would be more likely to find a solution.:)
Turn ON switch A Leave switch B OFF. Turn ON swich C, wait a while,then turn it off. Immediately go to the other room.
the bulb that is on is A the bulb that is off and cold is B the bulb that is off and warm is connected to C
Simple.:) The flaw in the hint is that bulbs can have more that 2 states. Another solution is to flip a switch on, and wait months before leaving the room. A burned out filament can be another state.
"Mr. Sparkle. A joint venture of Matsumura Fishworks [a smiling fish appears on the left half of the screen] and Tamaribuchi Heavy Manufacturing Concern [a light bulb appears on the right half of the screen. The two logos meld to form -- Mr. Sparkle!]"
Take Your Money Elsewhere, as in not paying for movies until they stop playing ads.
It's the only way to stop them. Make sure to let the management know why you wont be back.
Those are complex numbers. i is an "imaginary" number that is used to represent the square root of -1. If you use complex numbers you can factor primes.:)
For example:
(1+i)*(1-i) = 1 + i - i*(1+i) = 1 + i - i - i**2 = 2
"In Soviet Russia..." was from a comedian named Yakov Smirnof
I think the "Netcraft confirms..." was from a real press release, but the subject is just changed to bsd/whatever
"I for one welcome our new _______ overlords" is from The Simpsons, the reporter guy.
I guess it starts by somebody posting something amusing and people repeat it. The snowball effect. Remember "all your base..."? That was from a game that was released in 1989, however it did not become popular until much later. I wonder where that first was posted.
That appears to be a regular batch file, just install wget for windows

Use microcontrolers! You can do a lot of stuff with them and are ultra cheap. Think of them as one of those old computers on a chip.:) Coding them in assembly and building circuits for them to interface to is a good challange. Microchip gives free samples of their stuff and has excelent docs.

If you are looking for a greater return, how about investing in a Cat and Rat Ranch? Just use the profit to buy fuel for your current vehicle. ;)
Who would have thought electrical terms have such a high potential for puns?
Thats what they get for taking the man's stapler. :P
The FF way feels right to me because I think of it as bringing the page "closer" to me by moving the mouse wheel towards me, and vice versa.
It was not actually homer simpson: Homer just happens to look exactly like the fish/lightbulb hybrid in the ad.

Eather that or he misspelled time.

Fluorescent lights with magnetic ballasts flicker at 120Hz. It turns off 2 times per cycle when the voltage crosses 0.
Most newer fixtures use electronic ballasts though, which operate at a much higher frequency (5kHz+)
$1000!?
Newegg has them for under $50
1GB compact flash has been cheap for a while...or did you mean 4GB? Thats cheap too.
Does this really even help? They can always use steganography .
How can you read a message when you don't even know there is one?

Are you sure? They did not seem to help Glass Joe much. ;)

"...divide that by 120 to bring it to hours"
An hour has 3600 seconds not 120. =P
Forget the code troll and his computer and look for the breaker box. Why make it harder than it has to be?
