One thing different in this case is cheaters will eventually move on to allow a new set of cheaters that might not know the latest techniques. Sure they'll get better, but they're more likely to get caught early even with the help of their peers.
I don't know that the road block really does much though. I went through it several times in a taxi and the guys with machines guns just wave you on. Perhaps if you were driving a sketchy van they might do something, but the real security comes from the background checks and extra bag screening they do.
Right-click: I think you may have misunderstood me: I'm saying you can access context menu items with a single click and release, instead of Opera's right-click, release, left-click, release.
In Opera, when you right click, you can move the mouse to perform gestures, or click the other button to move in history. Having the context menu pop-up during that would be somewhat annoying so that's probably why there's a difference there.
I don't think that having different shortcuts than other browsers makes Opera wrong. Over the years they've changed many keyboard shortcuts to be the same as other browsers. I still run into problems when I'm using FF/IE/Chrome and right-click + left-click doesn't take me back in history, guess those are wrong too.
-No Ctrl+click to open links in new tab
Shift+click does this - Opera is different in that it prefers to keep things in one window when possible.
-Ctrl+PageUp and Ctrl+PageDn aren't set for next/prev tab. I know you can set it in keyboard options, but that's a huge dialog with confusing terminology for browser actions that you can easily mistake for other actions. Defaults matter.
That's an obscure one - try using ctrl-tab and ctrl-shift-tab - that's the standard these days for switching among tabs in a window.
-Right-click problems
Some of those are because of Opera's keeping things in the same window policy, but mostly it's because right click does so much more in Opera than other browsers (namely mouse gestures).
-Search. Ctrl+F and type something. The search words are highlighted, which is good, but it shades the rest of the screen. Not good. Also grey on grey isn't a great highlight color. Also it doesn't have the scrollbar search hit indicator lines like Chrome.
I usually use / to search personally. Shading the rest of the screen makes the highlighted text standout more. Might be your system settings, but mine show up as yellow(active) and green(others), not gray.
They weren't cowering in fear of the filibuster, they were being blocked by it. They've tried multiple times to push forwards without a closure vote, but the republicans just ask for the bill to be read out loud so nothing can be voted on. No use wasting everyone's time when they know it's not going to work.
And if you follow the security guidelines on classified material, any device that is touched by classified documents becomes contaminated and is then also a classified device. They don't want all their email computers becoming restricted to SIFR
Numlock sucks on laptops where it awkwardly maps the middle of the keyboard into a numpad. Though in that case I'd rather not have the option at all. Really a keyboard should use the buttons it has and not have any lock buttons.
Well in Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman's cape-glide ability will work, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 your base will refrain from blowing up, and in Michael Jackson: The Experience, there are no Vuvuzelas and the notes appear!
I think Amazon would be happy about you closing an account with PayPal - one of their competitors.
This is more likely something aimed at the happy customers of amazon's cloud services - not places like wikileaks that could pose a serious legal risk for amazon to be hosting. Those happy customers will be happy to trust this DNS service. Sites like wikileaks probably won't trust ANY provider to begin with.
Because currently an IP address fits into a 32bit address space as four 8 bit numbers (0-255). IP address aren't actually sent as numbers like 120.12.234.1, they're sent as 780CEA01. Expanding that to higher numbers would require making that a bigger data structure, so IPv6 does that, from 32 bits to 128 bits. The change in formatting to hex and colons is just for displaying to users, nothing to do with how it's stored.

They had to put it that way because $448 didn't sound impressive enough (though that's probably around what their account books say).
I thought he was like Julian Assange - Pale blonde guy who's interested in information and lives a secret life.

Well it's been at Orange for the past few years and now they're ditching the color system so you're probably safe leaving it at that.
It's part of the top most popular extension now:

With the bonus of a one click install

Because it's not being replaced by another better show, so syfy only has wrestling and ghost hunting available
Yep, you get to keep your copy of the book already on the Kindle (but not switch it to another device) AND you can get your money back.
They have removed it off their server which is why you can't get it if it's "Archived"

It streaked down range, generating a small sonic boom, and traveled about 5,500 feet before tumbling to the ground harmlessly.
So not all that interesting.

TinyUrl doesn't give people the ability to track links.

Well according to , iPhone users have more sex. Doesn't say if it's straight sex, but it's a pretty significant difference.

I did find it odd that it was one or the other - you'd think they'd incorporate a metal detector in while they were doing the other scans.
There's also the scary guys with machine guns to worry about for terrorists. That's a bit off putting for a guy with a little steak knife.
Yes, the entire first half of the video was useless introduction/applause. If you go to about 1:10 you get to hear his short story.

Are you running an email server on your PC? What is it - the '80s?
Sad thing is they probably have newer equipment than my laptop. Of course it was new at the time.
