Anyway, I don't see why they can't put a picocell on the train and have simple uplink stations for it along the tracks. Would probably be cheaper than having complete cell towers stashed throughout the tunnels.
Nothing magic about it, it's a link from the slashdot "links related to this story" box.
When you request that URL slashdot simply looks in their ad links database for the page with a corresponding ID and gives you a 302 Redirect with the new destination.
As I see it this will only make it easier to avoid tracking. At the moment tracking links are often obfuscated like this one. With this new attribute and the ability to disable it you get a plain non-tracked destination URL.
Because of this, and it being mozilla-specific for now, websites that currently use tracking URL's will see no value in switching over.
As for privacy concerns, it's already quite easy to track people on the web. Those who avoid it now are more in the know and would probably just add this to the list of things to disable.
Yep, it's mine. The web is overflowing with Sudoku's these days. Sadly, most of the good related domains are gone too.
Re: promotion: it's more fun if people play your games.:)
Did you try playing? I'm more than open to suggestions. I'm working on tracking play time and I have an SVG exporter (for printing) ready (but there's no real browser support..).
I like the annotation option and javascript error highlighting on websudoku. I'm more of a PHP than js guy though.
(Slashdot should tolerate offtopic discussion or have a forum IMHO..)
Most spelling mistakes are normal and can safely be ignored. However, teh, thiers, liek, thsi and their ilk are pretty good indicators of potential Darwin Award winners.
Why is it that every time a story like this comes up someone feels that such aa phone shouldn't exist just because they don't want it? OH, I KNOW - you're a troll.
Slashdot Mirror
I just checked the submitters profile
You're not a troll, sorry.
But the question wasn't exactly a tough one.
Real reply: Get broadband and consider moving to linux if you're concerned about spyware. Ubuntu is pretty good.
Let's take the question seriously for a moment, for fun.
:)
Is there an argument for this? No.
You can simply unplug your net cable at night. So why be stuck with an expensive slow connection?
I think this ask slashdot question was a trolling experiment.
This is hardly surprising behaviour from these triggerhappy people.
Wasn't there some other D&D related lawsuit too?
But be sure to commit the perfect crime, leaving no prints before you recharge you identifiability.
Terra!

Since you seem to follow this, do you know what they're going to use the die space for?
I don't really care if you embed an aff code in the link, but why claim you're not when you are? /ref=pd_bbs_1/
Fasterfox also trips a lot of traps intended to catch content stealing bots.

The lack of a depth of field preview button is a problem.. Not so great
D70s is the way to go if you want a serious amateur DSLR.

Have you tried last.fm?

I wonder why Apple doesn't care more about noise, surely a lack of noise must fit in well with the rest of their expensive/stylish marketing strategy?
A shiny white box that screams like a jet doesn't impress anyone.
It had to happen.
Good job replacing the FP trolls with real comments. You must be reloading /. a lot. :)
Teh as parody/trolling doesn't count. An average number of teh's (0-1) doesn't count. Consequently writing teh though...

Interesting... they probably have some happy sysadmins working there.
:)
+ they probably do this for geek points, knowing their readers and all..
More importantly: when is the patch for 3.1 and MS Bob coming out?
Wasn't there some movie where they put the rocket miles under water and used the buoyancy to accelerate it? Cool idea.
Sorry, I overreacted.
Hey, I'm not an ipod fanboy. It's just that posts like prof_UNIX's flood every article about advanced phones.
But it was a little over the top to call him a troll. Sorry professor.
News flash: This story isn't for you then.

Get back under your bridge.
Heh, funny. The exact same thing happened to me.
More than covered the expense of the phone - and was so much fun getting the other guy to pay when he thought he could just lie his way out of it.
