  1. Re:No surprise on The More Popular the Browser, the Slower It Is · · Score: 1

    I also use SRWare Iron and it is possible to get some sort of AdBlock in Iron. Save this file in the SRWare Iron program folder and the anoying ads are a thing of the past. http://www.srware.net/downloads/adblock.ini It's not as easily tweaked as AdBlok in FF but it's a start.

  2. Only in America on NY Governor to Target Violent Video Games · · Score: 1

    You got to be kidding! A regulation on a video game, but in Virginia it's perfectly ok to by a gun without even a license or cooling-of period. An assault weapon is ok if its not "to be used in anger". Why don't you take one step back and get your priorities right.

  3. Re:Well she has a point... on 10th Annual Wacky Warning Labels Out · · Score: 1

    The solution is to award damages for what it's worth not depending on amount of money you can extort from a compny. It works in Sweden where the possibility to sue is almost the same, but damages are much lower. A burnt tongue is not worth $$$$ just because Mc Donald's can pay, its probably only wort $10, and with damages in that range no ambulance chaser will ever take the case.

  4. How to make stupid lawsuits go away. on 10th Annual Wacky Warning Labels Out · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The problem in America is that the plaintiff is awarded what the respondent able to pay. In Sweden there are almost the same possibilities to sue as in the US, but practically no lawsuits of "I burnt my self on Mc Donald's coffee, they must pay me $$$$$" because the courts only award whats the injury is supposed to be worth, in a by law established way. In this reasoning a burning your self on a cup of coffee is probably worth $2 or $3, but not more. Law suite problem gone!

  6. Linux is finally going mainstream! on On the Scene at Linux World Expo · · Score: 1

    It's good to see that Linux finaly is going mainstream an no longer is a hidout for geeks. The picture of Robin Miller clearly proves this!
