YES. Most people can't differentiate between JavaScript and the underpowered/frustrating libraries (*cough* DOM) a user is generally exposed to via the browser.
Honestly, fuck actually _going_ to the theater/cinema to watch movies. I don't live in the UK, but Chicago, and I recently paid $10--for a matinee. There is so little about seeing a movie in theater that is pleasing any more--pretty much the only thing is timing; you must see a film in theater if you don't want to wait. But that's about it. Then something like we have here--every happening like this lowers my compunction regarding illegal downloading. Seriously these copyright assholes are killing the art form (amongst many others).
I can get it up to 2GB virtual memory in a morning's average browsing.
(emphasis mine)
Virtual memory has no real bearing on the quantity of physical ram occupied by an application. Virtual memory is a large, expandable, virtually contiguous slice of memory provided by your OS's memory manager. What you're looking for is resident memory. My current FF3.5 session is 'using' 973 MB virtual memory but in reality only 163 MB physical (resident).
Go to DNSServerList.org which will find the three best DNS servers for you given your IP.
Assuming you're using a NAT Router or Gateway, tell said device to use the DNS servers provided by DNSServerList.org instead of the default DNS servers provided by your ISP (in this case Comcast)
As the type of person who despises media companies that crap out products having never-ending sequels (sims, guitar hero), Nintendo really brings out the hypocrite in me, as I feel compelled to always buy the canonical Mario games.
I'm about to go on an OT rant here, but the parent is absolutely right. The FCC must be either inept or completely corrupt to accept a proprietary technology as a standard, especially when such outrageous exclusivity rules are applied to it's use. In these cases an open standard will create a vibrant market around the technology, expedite it's adoption, and maximize its public utility. For these reasons I say (sadly), fuck you, HD Radio.
At the moment I'm developing a Python based web app. I started using PyDev/Eclipse but found the environment more hindrance than aid.
I then got the idea to package up my development environment into a Virtualbox VM. I modeled the VM as closely as possible to the production environment. I run a screen session with several Vim instances (using windows and tabs). I then ssh to the VM. I find this convenient for a number of reasons:
my development env is as close as possible to the production env
I don't need any unnecessary daemons running on my physical OS (e.g. Apache, MySQL, etc)
the VM can be versioned (via snapshots)
I can suspend the VM and restore it to the exact state it was previously in (same screen/vim sessions, same daemon states)
the VM is only has 256MB RAM allocated to it; I can start VirtualBox and restore my VM in less time than it takes to open Eclipse
In my experience, having your development environment behave exactly the same *every* time you use it is not to be overlooked.
Tree Style Tab is fabulous for many reasons, not the least of which is that it conserves vertical in favor of horizontal real estate--something in abundance on the wide-aspect monitors becoming more common these days.
I didn't really RTFA that well. Is it possible to run more than one 'Guest' OS simultaneously? I would love to be able to run many different OSs on top of a very minimalistic hypervisor and hop between them with a hotkey.
Google doesn't sell/license BigTable in any way. It's used internally. I fail to see how it's possible to release an alternative to something which can't be acquired in any form.
Thats... terrible. I would like to hear these people's description of how a hashtable is 'supposed' to work. Even more puzzling to me is how someone could decide to use a data structure without understanding its behavior (and without at least checking the Java APIs or simply Googling).

Zomg, how will corporations do their grassroots marketing now?!?!?!

You are correct, sir. I must have been smoking too many Schedule 1 substances to confuse the categorization of THC.
And lets not forget about THC being schedule 3.
Chapter 11 is government sanctioned reorganization.
Chapter 7 is liquidation of an insolvent company's assets.

Can't say if this is the real deal, but you can download, install it in a VM and verify before the image on the moblin site finishes.

Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
