I think the argument regarding your little peeve there is that XGL's hardware requirements are far cheaper for a similar if not better effect than Aero's.
Well, for one, your average/.er is in his or her twenties typically, so there's almost always a guaranteed leap in maturity between [pre-]pubescence and adulthood.
It's probably for new users or users with less than $n comments already (e.g. 100 comments). I'd check the source, but it's hard to find anything meaningful when you look for the first few dozen times.:(
I don't think that court documents like these are copyrighted, so you can't even apply the DMCA to it. The leading source of public domain material these days seems to be the government itself...
Same goes for Illinois. I'd like to see some of the several finer points of at least the Illinois Constitution (as well as other states', but I'm not familiar with many others) adopted in the US Constitution as an indicator of progress in the right direction.
I know that liquid nitrogen typically costs between $1.50 and $2.00 per gallon, but the containers you need to buy to store it are fucking expensive (well, in comparison to the liquid nitrogen). Then again, that might be because our atmosphere is largely composed of nitrogen, and it's cheap to make liquid nitrogen. If only cars could run on that...

Of course, it works perfectly in Konqueror/Safari, the first browser to support Acid2. Besides, Acid2-related problems are all fixed on the Firefox "reflow" branch, so it'll be coming to a Firefox near you in the future.
That's been a [useful] feature in Firefox/Mozilla (maybe even Netscape) as long as I can remember! It's nice to see that browsers like Opera and Firefox borrow good ideas from each other to make the web browsing experience all that much better.:)
Some of those are in the interest of other people's safety. DRM is only in the interest of securing a laughably failing business model. Nobody benefits.
Maybe because H.264 takes an assload of processing power to decode or even encode? You need a high-end graphics card just to watch standard-definition H.264 content let alone HD. When dedicated H.264 chips are added to video cards and HDTV's, I'm sure it will become far more popular. In the meantime, the huge space reduction is hard to rationalise when you need such high-end equipment to use it.

Typically, the joke is that all you need is emacs and you're set, but I guess Firefox is the new emacs. What's the new vi then?

Rule #2: any important administrative tasks should be done via SSH in the first place, even for IRC.

I think you've got a point. Then again, you could always just check the damn source to see how it works...

Table soup probably, but that isn't very advanced either (and it wastes a shitload of bandwidth to boot).
Or even the frame rate of NTSC televisions at 29.97 Hz. Or of typical film-based movies at 24 Hz.

Well, there still is the old fashioned adblock via Privoxy, but that's kinda overkill sometimes...
You mean it takes more energy than available using conventional computing methods. That amount of energy is available quantumly, of course...

I totally agree. GNOME needs to learn how to use OOP, not CSMP.
With all the buttons you have to press at the same time to do anything in emacs, I'd argue that emacs was written for women.
At first, I was looking for some sexist remark about women's indecisiveness, but then I noticed I was thinking like a man again. Oh my...
Because Sun/SPARC isn't a hardware platform; it's a religion! ;p
Hawking also later added that 10 video cameras were to be given to each man as well to document their voyage into the unknown.
