Maybe overprotective is not the right term , maybe the term is lazy ass parent or retarded parent, if you actually need to pay the school's cafeteria to protect children from the kind of food you don't wnat them to eat you are just wrong. Really.
What it means to me is that: - Failed to make them understand the importance of a balanced food. - You don't really do nothing with/for your children. You could just gave them a meal made by yourself instead of giving them money if you don't really trust them. - You didn't provide them a good breakfast so they have to get whatever they can in the cafeteria.
Auto system backup is such a good idea actually. Although like with the recycle bin there should be a way to delete a file and stop it from going to the shadow copies, that's what you do with shift+supr you know.
I would love it to be oriented on file modiffications, sometimes one does silly things that he shouldn't be doing and figures out he has to repeat some work because he forgot to backup the files the previous day. It is an annoyance actually.
I would like to see this feature in linux as well.
Anyways MS should notify users about this . And then you can simply not store files that read "MY BOSS IS A COMPLETE DULL MORON" in your work computer , that should prevent problems with employers checking things out in the computers they actually own. It is not like you are supposed to use that computer to browser the web and read your personal email either. Seriously people.
About big brother checking out files on your comp. Was it that easy to prevent that to happen before? They are really good at rebuilding data the FBI agents. Yes, they are.
Yes, but a distro is not an OS so it would still be linux. And doubt a linux distro would ever tell you "OMG YOU HAVE PIRATED LINUX!!!!!!!1111". But that's just an assumption.
You'll love it, especially if you love the command line environment of Linux. Being able to have both the great GUI and name applications (like Photoshop) as well as a true Unix subsystem and command line you can use were a big factor in switching to the Mac for me.
That sounds great! Although I already have both things in kubuntu and it is free can run WINE (so If I want photoshop I can use it) and that's for free. Not saying that Macs are bad or anything just that you can find those features elsewhere so better focus on the other advantages macs have.
What makes firefox safer than IE is that its developers do worry about vulnerabilities and try to fix them ASAP . Unlike IE which can keep a vulnerability for years.
I seriously think that sf 's main problem is speed (not when downloading files but when browsing project web/home) And the fact that the user has to deal with a gigantic list of mirrors each time you want him to download stuff. SF sure has a lot of features that currently google doesn't seem to be considering of adding. But fiu I currently don't use most of SF's features.
I wouldn't go out to google though I would expect it to actually have a list of OS projects before joining.
But I welcome the fact that there is going to be competence for sourceforge that might improve the things there.
Whinning about firefox footprint will always get you +5 . But oh well. I have never seen firefox's footprint go so mad so maybe, maybe it was not the most recent version or maybe you left the browser open for 3 months or maybe it was a bugged flash page then you should whine the flash player or maybe it was a bugged beta or maybe, maybe you misread 150 MB as 1.5GB.
How exactly do you know when a word is 'innocent' . I think that they should enforce them to use porn or xxx tags so search engines can block them if safe search is on. Or nannies can do.
Now name a browser that has ftp integrated on it. Only IE but it is actually the ability of windows' explorer to use ftp.
Regardless it is far from being as good as an standalone win32 ftp browser.
Konqueror's is better at this, but if you actually think things up it is KDE's ftp suport.
So only 2 browsers seem have ftp support and none of them really has it.
The browser that will win this war is IE 7 , regardless of how insecure / unconfortable it would be. There are a lot of versions left before a non-ms browser wins the war.
No, you are not alone. Opera always seem to include things that you don't really need or use in a browser. Once in a while they do something right but most of the times the extra things are useless and get removed in later versions
That doesn't remove the fast that Opera's default interface is ugly (seriously) and I had to download the plastic theme, a good feature for next opera would be making the plastic theme the default one it is neutral and good enough for that
Imagine if restraining orders prohibited the people from even using any form of transport that could eventually take them close to the person that asked for the order, instead of just not being able to get close to him/her
The article later points out that the native version was running slower due to not using optimization options correctly. And later the native version was running 15% faster than the managed version
And that's the point of this experiment, to figure out if telepathy or something close to the common definition of it actually exist. Science is not biased, one has to demonstrate whether telepathy exists or not before affirming anything.

""Everybody wants to look good and presentable, _especially_ in highschool... "" I wouldn't be so certain about that

Seems that the really old Bon Echo (firefox 2 alpha) version I am using isn't vulnerable, that's weird

I would say that as a language (talking about the syntax) I prefer php over ruby and python

why is that PNG IE7 still won't support PNG transparency? Besides of GIF(propietary) there is no other option for transparency in web development...
Firefox uses the same dictionaries as Thunderbird and can also use OpenOffice's dictionaries
It is also hard to believe that XSS vulnerabilities are so frequent, even google had a couple of them (solved the same day they were announced though)
The Firefox developpers should focus on fixing bugs and the giant footprint.
Hey statistically speaking if I add that comment on a topic about firefox I have a 0.99 probability of getting +5 insightful.
