This bug has been split from #224447 as the symptoms are different. I will copy relevant comments from #224447 into this bug report.
Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to Preferences, Advanced, Proxies 2. Select "Automatic Proxy Configuration URL" 3. Enter a URL to a valid PAC file 4. Click OK 5. Browse a website (particularly one with many offsite adds/images)
Actual Results: DNS resolution causes the UI to hang
Expected Results: DNS resolution should not cause the UI to hang (it doesn't when using either "Direct connection to the Internet" or "Manual Proxy Configuration")
What would happen if I had a different set of HL2 saves on two different computers? Would it just merge the two seamlessly like cards in a deck, or would one take precedence?
It would protect their server insofar it would reduce the load, yeah. (It was a malformed set of queries running on a table with bad indexes. Basically, a mistake was made, so a lot of searches ran across a lot of data by accident.) It would have definitely affected the other users of the shared DB hardware, unless they had a limit per user.
The only expectation I have of my $12 a month is that I'm allowed to use, if I so choose, every single GiB of web space and every single GiB of bandwidth allocated to my account. If I get anything beyond a 'Watch out, Kamineko! You're reached 5% of your limit. (Disable this warning in the panel.)', then I really have no time for them. (Which is why I don't update my website very often because I don't trust the guys to do anything beyond the simplest of things, which is rather frustrating.)
The cheeky bastards had the audacity to alter some of my database schema while I was deploying the original version of an app I was writing. Sure, it was a terrible app then, but I would have expected them to have simply temporarily suspended whatever process was misbehaving rather than edit my damn database.
Strewth! I use Dreamhost for my hosting, and their uptime is a bit pants. (There's many websites dedicated to how terrible DH is. Many, many websites.)
This announcement just makes them seem wonderfully credible, don't you think?
I prefer a decent tablet PC (yes! Running Linux!) for reading documents. A tablet PC in a Wifi hotspot is great for grabbing stuff off the Sub-Etha.
'Course, being a miser and a logical git, it's all down to TPCs being considerably cheaper than most ebook gadgets, and having a lot more functionality.
Once there's an ebook reader that costs the same as a decent TPC and can do the same things as a TPC, then I'll be happy. So happy in fact that I'll politely refuse to buy it, because TPCs will also have become better by then.
ebook readers need to become really, really good really fast before cheap consumer TPCs become 'cool' for families and start appearing in the shelves next to the eee PCs.
GTA games aren't really big on the whole 'advertising real products' thing. Pretty much every product in the game is fictional, or a fictitious parody of an existing product.
For example, in Need For Speed underground, you'll get race text messages on your Cingular cellphone/PDA. In GTA IV, you get text messages on your 'Whiz' phone.
Voice actors and actresses are awesome, voice acting is awesome.
I think some of the comments are a interpreting Hollick's statement as a little more desperate than it is.
Some people are saying "Mr. Bellic probably should have read his contract and thought ahead." I'm guessing that he probably did, and was happy to get what he got.
If he didn't like it, then R* probably would have got the omnipresent Cam Clarke to do the voice, and Niko would have sounded like Liquid Snake.

Which councils? I want to see the full response.
Presumably, while speculating, you'd at least wear glasses.

None of us have any, you insensitive clod!
I'd normally make a Naruto reference here, but it'd be too troublesome.
You could have had:
'Further to the research, Jennifer Loveland-Curtze added "WE'RE NOT WHO WE ARE!"'
I'm pretty sure whatever media an AI was living against wouldn't be invincible against accident, force or degradation.
All we want are the fax, maam.
I will be seek these bananas, and I will gain their elemental magic powers!
When I have all six, the world will be MINE!

Paypal don't. You keep the tiny bit of money they give you.
What does cheese have to do with it?

Are there any good, big hosts located in the UK?
What makes you think this is about either?
High five! http://www.manuelbieh.de/kram/blog_highfive.jpg
Would they be called 'plasers'?
Okay. My Wi-fi, Bluetooth enhanced computer, cell phone and microwave oven are all gone. Now what?
Dude, nobody's going to be downloading that. That's the most overrated album of all time. (Actually, it sounds like a broken record.)
Somebody should put some music on, then they could all dance the iLine shuffle.

Maybe you were thinking of Crackdown?
