Frex: that story of Jesus telling the mob to "let he who is without sin, cast the first stone" was not in the original texts.
Many versions of the Bible will admit changes or differences in several locations. For example, the NIV states that "the earliest manuscripts and many other ancient witnesses do not have John 7:53–8:11." The same is done for Mark 16:9–20, and footnotes are liberally sprinkled throughout the text indicating differences and omissions. So the publishers and translators are at least making an effort to disclose such textual inconsistencies.
Wikipedia seems to laboring under the apprehension that IP addresses are somehow anonymous, whereas they provide far more information to third parties than an account name does (unless the poster is savvy enough to use a reasonably anonymous proxy not blocked by Wikipedia).
Wikipedia actually states on its own "Why create an account?" page that registering gives more anonymity.
What's even goofier is that in OS X, as far as I can figure, "show file extension" is a file-specific flag, not a user-specific flag. Unless I'm missing something, it's impossible to get OS X to show file extensions on all files all the time.
Actually, you can. Click on the desktop, go to Preferences under the Finder menu, select the Advanced tab, and check "Show all file extensions".
NeoOffice/J on my machine with a blank Writer document uses 25.12 MB of real memory and 1.06 GB (!) of virtual. (NeoOffice/J is based on the 1.1 codebase, but I'd imagine a lot of Mac users would go for it because it integrates better with the OS X environment.)
On Mighty Mouse, the entire top shell is the actual button. As with previous versions of the Apple mouse, simply press on the upper surface to click -- the body pivots up and down to actuate the clever click mechanism.
Dilbert: Dave, tell me what Marketing wants the new product to do.
Dave: It has to have a 45-inch screen and still fit in a purse or wallet. It needs to act as a communications satellite as well as a room freshener.
Dilbert: Uh....
Dave: It must cure deadly diseases and whiten your teeth while you sleep! Ha ha!! And it has to be capable of time travel!! AND HAVE A TELEPATHIC USER INTERFACE!!
[Dilbert slaps Dave]
Dilbert: I could write a program that makes fish appear on a computer screen.
Dave:[sarcastically] Yeah... a lot of people want that.
Now who's the evil, evil, evil person that edited the section heading to both a) conform to the Wikipedia Manual of Style and b) break the in-page link at the beginning of the article?
Firefox seems to do pretty well with using panes above the tab's contents when, say, it blocks popups or needs a plug-in. Why not use one of those for authentication? Then there's no question as to what tab is requesting a username or password.
Not to mention that Google (and probably many other search engines) indexes pages as if it was a text-only browser. Using Lynx can really help to ensure that searchers don't get a bunch of gibberish.
I'm pretty sure this has been a feature of the GTK+ 2.4 list and file controls for quite a while. Typing a sequence of characters will cause a small text box to appear just below the list, with which you can search for items.

Firefox supports counters, but they are implemented slightly differently.
I suggested something like this a while back after a few months on Wikipedia.

Google's due to be added to the NASDAQ-100 on 19 December.
Actually, you can. Click on the desktop, go to Preferences under the Finder menu, select the Advanced tab, and check "Show all file extensions".
If by this you mean the ability to use groups of contacts in iChat, try View > Use Groups, then click the plus button and "Edit Groups".
After that, rename your Xbox to "Ship of Theseus".

The end of the world.
Right on. As the design page states:
The irony in the name "Merkey Law" really pops out at you, doesn't it?
I definitely read that as Claris. Microsoft buying an Apple company?

An official list of torrents has gone up at torrent.fedoraproject.org.
In 2049, Google can finally be queried for wisdom as well as knowledge.
Can't you already ask it for the only piece of knowledge one would ever need?

I find it interesting that the interview was broadcast on Pi Day (3/14).

Someone had better come up with a new name for that IE7 project really fast....

Why the uproar? There is not a single link to Roland's blog in the article text.
Actually, the X in "Xmas" can stand for a Greek chi, which is also the first letter of the Greek version of Christ. [1]

Umm ... no. Fedora Core is on version 2, and their current unstable is 3 test3.
