Please save the bashing until this thing is released officially as non-beta.
Why should being beta matter? It is not just a bit you can flip on, and suddenly all the flaws don't matter. It is still 'ineffective', and being beta does not change that.
Talking of more secure devices, I've seen phone covers (not sure if they were tinfoil) that were supposed to reduce the amount of radiation emitted from phones. I have no idea if they were effective or not, but if enough people are moved by reports like this, protective covers could become a new market as well.
Slashdot does have piss-poor HTML, but there's also a minor Gecko bug (see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21752 7) which is why it works fine in other browsers.
The Web Developer Toolbar can validate online and local pages via a button or keyboard shortcut. It uses the W3C one by defualt, but you can change it.
Both Mozilla and Thunderbird can import your Gmail messages. Its 'conversation'-type messages don't import so well (you get a lot of messages from yourself in the Inbox) so it takes a bit of clearing up afterwards, though.
There is a problem with the database that is preventing the site from working. An email has been sent to the administrator notifying them of the problem. Please try again later.
They're letting us slashdot their mail server too?
Try increasing your outbound limit in Tools->Connections->outbound. Shareaza likes to not connect to some networks if it feels it can't send enough stuff to it.
If this gets embedded into microchips, machines will make that judgement for you

Antarctic Telescope?

I would presume that it is far warmer in Antarctica than in orbit... Anywhere on Earth is far more accessible and easier to get to than anywhere not on it.
What would you prefer? To stop the patches and fixes, you want no new bugs. To have no new bugs, the product won't evolve. If you want a moving-forward product, don't complain:)
Measured in hamburgers, indexed by reastaurant: McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, etc. (Although I'd be more than worried if McDonald's burgers contain 1048576 times the bit storage capacity as Wendy's)
I'd've thought that switching to Linux or OS X would be the perfect solution for public terminals with "DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANY PROGRAMS ONTO THESE COMPUTERS" notices on them. There's no point downloading things that wouldn't run. It might cost less, too.

A List Apart did an article on how to fix it but nothing seems to have happened.

Why is everyone doing so well? I got one! 1! I'm half average!

No, it's just that the people who find exploits are trying harder.
