  1. Re:Try this: on Mozilla 1.8 Alpha Released · · Score: 2, Informative

    "FileZilla is a powerful FTP-client for Windows 9x, ME, NT4, 2000 and XP"

    I think the grandparent refers to Linux.

    Well, both is true, guys. FileZilla right now is available for all them Windowses around, but the upcoming 3.0 will be cross plattform.

    And that is some release I am really waiting for, since FileZilla is my ftp client of choice on Windows. Really. Especially the bookmarks-in-a-xml-file thing makes it quite useful, as you can just put the whole FileZilla directory wherever (USB stick, network volume, whatever, it just works).

  2. Middle Mouse on Linux (was: re: ... on MacOSX) on Mozilla 1.8 Alpha Released · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Only slightly related is this:

    What I never understood, though, is why with the X version of Mozilla (Linux in my case) clicking the middle mouse button on a tab by default tries to load the current selection as an URL.

    Why? First thing with all Mozilla installs on Linux I do is to disable middlemouse.ContentLoadURL. Why on earth do they set it to true on Linux? Just to make life harder for people whop use both Win32 and Linux? Or do they track this silently somehow, trying to figure out how many people know how to change settings "back to normal" via about:config?

  3. Re:3D Attack Design on BioWare To Show Dragon Age, The Witcher At E3 · · Score: 1

    Anyway, I just want a 3D RPG where the _way_ you fight matters. Where you have to do something other than point and click to win. It keeps things interesting, and the fighting fun. Actually, I do not want that. It is a role playing game after all. I play a role. If I knew how to fight I could just go to some training hall and do it. I want my character to fight. Similarly, do you yourself want to remember the spells and type the "vocal component"? Keeps it interesting... or not? Sure. Just point-and-click is bad as well, but having the player learn more defeats the purpose of the R in RPG.
