Oh dear, look at that. The inevitable conclusion of the EU meddling with integral bits of the OS... don't forget, the Tablet Extensions were an add-on, not standard, before a certain date!
Install 7 then, it runs cooler. You can stop the FUD right now, I played Oblivion at native 18+fps on this, for a year and a bit!
Also, there's this thing called "calibration". It worked. Also, how long ago were they made? What does this add? We don't know how hot it runs, yet, or how reliable it is. All the logic behind the screen, in a traditionally hot place? Are you sure you agree with them that that's a good idea? We'll see.
pppps longest thread where I talked to myself EVER... I wonder how many posts it gives you and whether it can be used to create a huge variation on the page-widening troll? Don't worry, I won't try.

Complete rubbish, if this were an argument about the morales in the record industry, you'd take the opposite tack. MySQL AB is the struggling artist, now out in the street. Oracle is the evil company making most of the money from repeat sales of struggling artist's music, already recorded. Percona is the DJ / Promotor type remixes the music, legally, and adds hip street cred (read marketing).
The truth is, OSS is supposed to be about removing the capital barrier, and giving the struggling an artist a reward for it's work. So this whole squabble over MySQL is missing the point - and the only people doing the right thing in all of this are the Maria team. I hope they succeed where MySQL AB failed.

Submitted by a Percona shill, perhaps? Nobody praises consultants except consultants, and people who work for consultants. Who's to say it performs more reliably than the other fork?
I've posted several "Firsts" with my username, but only on-topic to start the discussion. In retrospect, I probably only got first because nobody else could think of anything.
Yes, HOSTS et al. loads on startup, but isn't used by AdBlock which appears before the TCPIP stack (so is never used unless we already know a URL is ok anyway)..
If we use your method we get timeout, tcpip overhead, etc., so actually takes longer!
And stop being abusive. I am convinced that you've fixated on me in some way, it's not good for you at all.
I have done. Quit stressing, it makes you look old and bitter. I'm sorry that you can't face how wrong you are, both about HOSTS and the way you're treating people, but it's not really my problem. All you're doing at the moment is adding to my Karma...
I just told you how it works, I have explained in more detail elsewhere. Since you are such a sleuth and so clever, I'm surprised you still don't get this.
Go "sleuth" and find out why. Slashdot will do just fine without you while you figure it out. And stop being so damn abusive.
Number one, never actually trolled you via TOR, just threatened to, because you were being an abusive scumbag.
Number two, it matters not one iota that tcpip and HOSTS load before Firefox, and AdBlock - it matters that AdBlock does not use HOSTS to process it's blocking and is therefore before it in the execution cycle that matters here! In fact, it makes HOSTS completely redundant, as many others have tried to tell you. In the meantime, I earn Karma because I am calm, correct, and not an abusive old scumbag bitter that SCADA and Win 3.1 are going the way of the dinosaur!!!

And I back up that fine 1st with this - google is your friend - HP tx2500. Nothing new here. Move along.

ppps apk launching distributed crapflood of HOSTS in 5,4,3,2,1...
pps 10 extra points for low userID AND famous troll username :-D
"slow down cowboy!"
Come on, I've earned my "naughty" posts recently, I'm posting at 2, let me submit please /.!!!

Since we are all bound by the Temporal Prime Directive, I'm sure we will. I'm sure we will.

"How do you make "gourmet" horseburgers?"
You don't. Just catch a police horse. Not only will it be tasty, it belongs to the Crown. How can you get any more gourmet than that?
The moment in V for Vendetta when EV realises she's eating REAL butter... stolen from the Chancellor's supply train, of course...

Ahoy there, a fellow British Islander!

Very true, my comment merely serves to point out that he had no right to stop it.
Well, since it is not a crime, anywhere in Europe, it would be none of your damn business, sir.

Yum, another tasty load of delicious copy-pasta!
Carry on...
Lalalalaaa... +1 Karma, gosh this articles' a mess; I really shouldn't bite the troll so much!
You're logic is completely flawed.
Yes, HOSTS et al. loads on startup, but isn't used by AdBlock which appears before the TCPIP stack (so is never used unless we already know a URL is ok anyway)..

Who's posting anonymously? Who's stalking me? Replying to every post? Via AC?
Who's posting facts with her username, answered the question loads of times
Page Parser ---> AdBlock --> | Block
Page Parser ---> TCP / IP --> HOSTS --> Local Webserver Timeout.
So AdBlock first, in terms of EXECUTION, in the USER SPACE, of the BROWSER ITSELF. Shut up, you look so stupid!!!
Yawn, he can't even pretend to be a third party properly ;-)
