Is such that the location of the find, and the look of a dialog or two is enough to switch to another app? Phht! A week from now hell have a blog entry about switching to FF 1.5 beta. Later this century hell write about switching gback to IE 7 based of course on the color selection for the window background, and so on...
So when I choose to download (and I just checked, its just a download link, not a form), Mozilla.org is pulling information about my system before beginning the download. And they do this without letting me know? And they do it silently and inline with the download? And they somehow differentiate between my notebook and the guy in the next cube with the same notebook?And they somehow compare my system information generated with todays download and cross check against the other 80 million unique entries?
Wow. Keep on taking back that web, keep on making shit up, and keep on (somehow) being moderated informative by someone who actually believed you.
I never could stand a tech-cheerleader, which is what all these announcements amount to (is there a moderation code for 'rabid fanboy'?)
The whole 'take back the web' crap just got annoying coming from a group that couldnt figure out how to do an update/install.
If I wasnt so busy (ok, lazy), id build a site to count people who like me, gave back the web and stopped caring. But I also switched back to Outlook from Thunderbird, so maybe id have to build two sites?
More of the same for this place. I have had 3 publicly accessible systems up and running for over a year and a half. Many scripted login attempts and nothing has gotten through. I have 2 desktop systems used by my wife and kid. Nothing there and neither of them has gotten the concept down that SPAM is not a special offer 'just for them'. Even my moms XP (XP home even for christs sake) system is on DSL and has yet to have a problem.
Believe what you want, but 12 minutes my ass.
In the world of information/. is the friggin Weekly World News of, well, news and should carry a label on the main page: (Take your pick)
slashdot: For Entertainment Purposes Only
slashdot: Any resemblence to real news is purely coincidental
slashdot: And you thought the Democratic Party knew how to skew the facts!
slashdot: If we keep saying it enough, maybe everyone will switch to what we think is better and we'll all be considered kewl for 5 minutes
Actually, in looking at how I would go about homeschooling one of my kids, I found that I could create my own high school diploma for her when I had determined that she had graduated. Now, I only began looking in to home schooling, and I am sure that someone more familiar with the subject could probably correct me, but I dont believe there is such a thing as a 'fake' high school diploma.
Wait a second. Smoking is 'cool'?! Im going out and buying myself a pack. Thanks for the tip!
Myself, I dont smoke indoors, so my smoking doesnt affect your health. If you stand next to me in the great outdoors its your own fault - take two extra steps to get around me and maybe ive helped you burn off some calories from that burger.
I was in a late-night PS2 session with a buddy, and were unable to solve a level of LOR:ROTK (yes, it was that damned almost-hidden pathways in the elephant level). I had just moved in to this apartment and had no access set up yet. Into the car at 3AM, two blocks to the Paneras, surfed from the car, found the walktrhough, by 3:30 we had moved on.
Ive had a few open ones available, either intentional or un-intentional, but as they are not secure, they are pretty limiting

but between inconsistant recognition and frequent random crashing, I would get zero use from this stupid friggin Treo!

Where is my tinfoil hat? I was just downloading something for this this morning to repair an XP home machine from a lost password. Cool timing
Total cost of extra hardware - less than $1000.
Webcam shots of my rectum... priceless.

If a UA were used as a unique identifier, then firefox likely would show around 50 downwloads instead of 80 million.
If you are going to attempt sarcasm at least make an attempt at being correct and not just parrot what you may have heard somewhere else.
Beautiful. And this otherwise obscure browser frontend claims almost half as many downloads as FireFox. Download counters Rule!
Excuse me?

Seems pretty random to me. Then again, I dont have an AIM account to test against

Yikes, I was looking forward to reading some great insights ...
And you came here for that???!?
Would have been a reprint of the SlashDot feedback at the time. I keep searching for them on Google/News but come up empty each time.

I was going to say something about lap-dances and such, but then it occured to me...

Canton Ohio has a 'Strip'????? Is it more than a single block?
