My problem is finding "Compose ONLY in plain text" in Thunderbird. If it's there, I can't find it.
It's under "Composition and Addressing" on the account settings. You don't get asked whether you want it on or not when setting up the account, either - you have to go in after setting it up and tweak it there.
Last time I looked, neither was Windows. And IE is an integral part of Windows, as various antitrust cases have shown.
It's rather like selling a car with a stereo that randomly electrocutes you when you change tracks, and saying "the stereo was free with the car, so tough"...
Absolutely. Besides, if everyone's in one great big open plan office, the sales team's phone calls will be disrupting the coders, too.
Plus, making sure the sales team can get the customers to and from meetings without having to go past the programmers reduces a lot of pressure from above, in the form of "tidy your desk", "wear a tie", "stop calling Windows a retarded pile of goat droppings every time something crashes" and so on, since the customers won't be encountering it:)
What's the benefit of using mail clients such as Thunderbird or Outlook over web-based e-mail?
I'd say the fact that your messages are safely on your box, rather than at the mercy of someone who could decide to shut up shop overnight, is a fairly major benefit...
We can't get Mountain Dew in the UK any more, either.
They released it over here a few years ago, but it vanished about a year later. Not enough non-geeks buying it, I guess. Fortunately, we have Red Bull...
Granted, it doesn't have all the features of the IE version (no PageRank-o-meter, for one - although I'm not exactly crying in my beer over that one) but it's out there...
Moving in order to reduce the commute, use bicycles, or use public transportation is often a reasonable (and possibly money-saving) option.
I'm guessing that you rent. Try doing that when you own the place - ISTR a recent article saying it cost around 17,000 pounds to sell one house and buy another - your country may vary, of course.
Not to mention the fact that selling a house and buying a new one can take months - by which time, your darling employers will probably have decided to relocate...
Determine who approved the working "Supports Feature X", and divide the fines equally among the approvers manager, the manager's manager,..., the board of directors.
...who then give themselves nice juicy pay rises to offset the loss, or allow themselves to claim the fines as expenses - then stick a pay freeze on the lower ranks so that profits aren't affected, natch.
Use the title attribute of an img tag to display a nice long tooltip when the mouse pointer rests on the image. Opera, IE et al will create a multiline tooltip and display the whole text. Mozilla will display about 60 characters and then truncate the rest.
This is bug #45375, opened in July 2000. No hurry, guys, nobody uses tooltips, after all. I certainly don't want to try and rewrite half of the TiVoweb modules so they'll work properly with Moz...
True, but I definitely remember the installer asking me if I wanted to install Talkback when I installed Mozilla.
Disabling the XP error-reporting requires tinkering with the Group Policy editor or mucking about in the registry if you're using XP Home, as that doesn't even have the Group Policy editor. You certainly don't get an option to disable it at install time...
Well, you coul use eMule instead of Kazaa - no spyware there :)
Well, if you're in the US, that would be why. No protection on the UK/US versions...
If putting a Beastie Boys CD in my PC caused it to install Duke Nukem Forever, then I'd be down the record store right away...

Bad Thunderbird. No biscuit!

Tools > Account Settings and then the Manage Identities button should be right in front of you.
This is in 0.7, so it looks like it got added to the program but not the change list...
Real men use zsh.
One word: catheters.

Well, in a sense, there is: the Zelda bonus disks run Ocarina of Time/Majora's Mask through an emulator, I believe.
:)
This means there's nothing to stop Ninty releasing the first Paper Mario as a bonus disk with Paper Mario 2 (hint, hint

I think Sky+ probably has it beaten... I certainly don't think there's anything like the range of hacks available for that one...

Close - it's 120 quid. Or less if you have a black-and-white set. I wonder how many of those they sell these days?

Set browser.blink_allowed to false.
Job done.
Or "Bite my red-hot glowing ass! Wait a minute... red-hot glowing ass? I'll be right back!"

How about if we set the hit men on the spammers?

So that's what Nethack meant when it said "be careful - new moon tonight"...
