  2. Re:Showing the page anyway? on Microsoft Research Builds 'BrowserShield' · · Score: 1

    Knowing Microsoft, chances are only 'bad' Javascript will make it through.

    If leading by example is the only criterion you use there is something wrong with you.

    We used to not know who Deep Throat was. We also didn't know a lot of things about USSR and USA spy operations that have since been declassified or leaked.

    • We aren't sure what the exact effects will be. In what seems like a paradox to some people, most models say Britain's temperatures will become closer to that of Sweden and Norway due to the weakening of the Gulf Stream.
    • It will be an economic and environmental upheaval to the level not seen since the dinosaurs. The places that are currently ports will probably no longer be viable ports. And the animals would have to migrate, something rainforest animals don't generally do.
    • And 'good' is subjunctive--oops, I mean subjective. (Too much Latin homework.) I actually prefer the cold.

    Even more sensible seperation in that case would be to make it get its references to http from elsewhere.

    Well, what I really want is a laptop maker that allows me to piecemeal-upgrade the way PC Desktops can(and Apple Desktops can't). Unfortunately I don't think PC laptops can do that.

    Even if you were british, the point was that you couldn't find the very first season/series of Doctor Who because it was also lost.

    Only if you can provide the entire first season('series' to you Brits) of Doctor Who.

    That was a European witch hunt. We're talking about American witch hunts. The difference: In Europe they burn their witches but in America we only hang them. Land of the free(ly hanging) and all that!

    I like that viewpoint much better compared to Al "The Constitution is a living, breathing document" nonsense. What other document is living or breathing?

    Who in their right minds would use a browser called "Browzar" anyways? At least Ekiga doesn't look like a 1337 misspelling.

    There are 11 types of people in the world, people who laugh at the "10 types of people" joke, people who complain about silly things like a subscript, and people who don't know what binary is.
