Yea, I'd known about that but this morning I finally spent a few hours to switch my page over to microsteps of style type. Now I have a clean 4.01 Transitional rating. Yay!
I'll check the page again at work to see if Opera is still giving me fits or not.
I'll also have to put that page back on my resource links now I know how to get clean readings.
That's such a Friday Feelgood thing to daydream on!
1. In response to this: "Security - IE8: * FF: CR: - Internet Explorer 8 takes the cake with better phishing and malware protection, as well as protection from emerging threats."
The driveby addon would ask: "Please select one of the following browsers, all of which provide better protection than the decaying threat of IE: (Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera, _____ )
2. Microsoft felt perfectly justified in pushing an non-deletable addon for Firefox a while back, so it's only fair play to push an addon for IE right?
3. Provide a notice: "IE cannot be deleted because the components are smashed so deep into Windows. However, we have obscured the remains of IE as much as possible and hope this will suffice."
An IP address cannot be *definitely* linked to an individual, but it's not totally random either.
What tiny bit I know about someone/anyone's law across multiple countries, I'd want this basic court level protection in place. Then we can go after removing the exemption for the copyright holders, and reinstating basic IT workflow. But the base law might be a step against the privacy-abusing laws that are a *worldwide* rage these days.
I have virtually no smell sense either, and I taste mostly okay. It might have upped my tolerance to outre tastes, but the normal tastes come through just fine.
But there has to be some corner case where some fragment of taste gets affected. I can't taste the difference between different brands of saltines. But they all taste "like saltines", so that's fine with me.
Ya see, my anthro class sponsored a field trip to the Mohave desert. You should have SEEN the Vista! I'm tellin' ya, you ain't seen nuthin' until you checked out a desert sunset headed into a full moon.
Then it was time to set up our water filtering equipment. Can kernels of corn grow in desert conditions...
Oh wait... you wanted an *exact phrase* search for Windows Vista? Oops, sorry.
Come on gang, forget the snark below his post, this guy has a piece of the puzzle right! MS can lever the threat to "accidentally" label polka spotted portions of the web as "explicit" while daring the global web community to figure it out!
While he's funny with the MS-product side, they can accept payments to label ANYTHING as explicit! Wheee!!
However, they hired their budgeter from that aboriginal tribe whose numerical knowledge goes "1$, 2$, Many$". Since all numbers above three are Many, they can make up anything they like and "be right".
Too bad slashdot runs tracking by DoubleClick and if you happen to be on Windows, leaves LSO's. (Locally Stored Object cookies, which are not destroyed by "clear browser usage".)
Check out Ghostery and BetterPrivacy for firefox which make a great pair.
Their business model makes them enough money to buy power, which they then use to try to stay afloat. If it doesn't and they die, they claw you with them on the way down, and that's *your* tough luck. You can blame everything on their business model.
No, the paper white sleeve you got instead of the movie box at the convenience store 2ndhand rack because the store manager wanted to save money by not buying cases.
I'm not sure, but maybe the modern age is changing something here. Old Style marketing was about building desire presssure until it exploded into sales.
But now people are at least sating that desire through their own previews, betas, etc. Maybe it's the advent of bad software! We are now comfortable with letting things gestate for a year or two (or more!) without feeling "Out".
Certainly Microsoft has had at least three "Skip" OS releases, forcing us to develop a multi-year holistic perspective.
The "Hangover" movie (looks terrible) tried to use that old stuff just now, and dated it is: "Better watch this now because your friends will talk about it for weeks". A copier salesman tried the equally old school line "Sign now and get X discount, but it's gone when I leave!!!" I replied, "Okay. If you can't be bothered with my order after you walk out the door, I can't be bothered to pay you."

I see it as a race between:
US
UK
Germany
China
Sweden
Australia
Iran
Plus or minus a guest country.
It's always the same 7ish countries in YRO.

Ray,
Weren't we all hoping for the best when her counsel changed and she got a "young bright newcomer"?
Typical article among many:
http://copyrightsandcampaigns.blogspot.com/2009/05/jammie-thomas-gets-new-counsel-kiwi.html?showComment=1242855147496
But given the apparently uneven performance of her counsel, what now?
How about we start with the fact that OurFavoriteCountryLawyer would have called his team's technical witness to challenge something?

Can this guy help?

I concur.

Like my private links page.
It's a simple little page with about two layers of tables, and one of the recent Opera builds pounds it. (I think the one before last week's release.)
So now I don't know if it's because my page isn't Standard Compliant or if Opera is just throwing a snit.
Wait, is that the (new) cultural parallel for reading Star Trek's Ferengi? Dunno who was the original model, but this sounds like it fits now!
Or worse, Concerned Geeks only at level 2 who have no idea what that stack even DOES.
But if I reply to you and you fire something back, some day when I've done some homework I can dig your name back up out of my email.
P.s. why does your handle add up to 17545? Or is that a bit-flip command to something?
I'll bite!

"Since zen...lott"
What is the sound of Trent Lott campaigning on racial compassion?
They DO admit they have no reliable model.
However, they hired their budgeter from that aboriginal tribe whose numerical knowledge goes "1$, 2$, Many$". Since all numbers above three are Many, they can make up anything they like and "be right".
I think you're being honest, which means this isn't a troll *comment*. /Dot really needs a lateral 0-point Scary mod.
Sorry.
They'd just game them separately with twinned sites & such.
Free as in Beer or Free as in FOSChairs?
Cleaning up their Industry might help.
That didn't stop the RIAA.

In Soviet America:

True policy, not trolling.
Do you have a new acronym starting?
"TINL;TIB"
They do.
