Gothcha, makes perfect sense now. I was amused as I read it initially. I understand what you were saying now. Thats the problem with written communication sometimes we misread what others are saying.
Actually the ordering you promulgate indicates a bias. Chrome and Safari should be in close proximity to each other as they are both based on the same underlying technology. I love them both.
I suspect thats mostly because you're bad at web development.... In no way is this a defense of Microsoft, its just an attack on you.
Actually, you are wrong and misdirecting your attack. If a browser vendor wants to boast HTML5 compliance then it is completely fair to ask about compliance with previous iterations of the HTML standard.
And yes you can have w3c compliant html that fails miserably in IE. Competent web developers can/will, and do cajole their code to work correctly in IE. That doesn't mean as you state, that the code in its original incarnation was wrong or the developer was incompetent. It simply means he had to tweak his/her code to comply with a non-compliant web browser. And many including myself do that begrudginly because so many people use an depend on said non-compliant browser.
I still don't understand why people feel that they must have children. Not only does it contribute to the ever growing problem of overpopulation, but the fact that a startling number parents have children regardless of the fact that they don't have any time to raise them only worsens matters.
Your post made me sad. Not for me, I have six children, but sad for you.
You make a good point. So my comments are to the OP.
If I use Client side Javascipt to generate the MD5 hash then the "secret" key has to be sent to the client. Otherwise how would it know the secret key to use to create the hash.
I would struggle with a law like that. Next thing you know they will require you to have zippers on all of your pockets and if you get pickpocketed its your fault for not having your zippers zipped.
I lived in Denver Colorado during the late nineties. I had a Jeep Cherokee which is probably the easiest car to steal so it was a big target for people that just wanted to joyride.
It was stolen/attempted 4 times in the eight years I lived there. Each time it was recovered usually within a day. The last time it was stolen I called my insurance company to file a claim. The guy asked me if I had locked the door. I told him no. After a bit of silence he asked me why. I told him I didn't lock the door because I didn't want to drive around with a broken glass while I waited to get it fixed. He looked at my history and said I see it looks like we have replaced the glass in this vehicle 3 times and we wont have to this time.
Since then I never lock my car. People that do not know the story usually say things like "naive" but actually the opposite is true.
There are ways to make various aspects of various operating systems easier to see by enlarging them, but none are done at a level where they affect everything in the operating system. I may be able to make certain things bigger but those are localized and not global to all the things on the screen.
The reason people "prefer" a lower DPI is because that is the only way on most operating systems to get the stuff onscreen to be bigger. Wouldn't it be nice if Operating systems didn't use pixels as a metric for point size but instead user a ruler as a metric for point size.
iOS4 is the only operating system I know of that get this simple concept right.
Thank you for restating my point. They get you back the way you were when you purchased it then they determine if there is anything that needs to be replaced under warranty (No, didn't mean HD meant CD, as in CD-ROM drive)
While certainly Apple may be able to detect things like that it would be more trouble then loading up the original stuff and telling you here it works.
The "voids your warranty" bit seems like a scare tactic to me. Lets suppose I do something to my phone (jailbreak) and it gets bricked. Wont turn on nothing works. Ok so I take it to Apple and ask for a replacement for my broken iPhone. They will have to be able to show me that it is still working (the hardware), and so they do some magic sequence of pushing buttons iTunes USB wizardry and boom its working again. Then they tell me its working so we don't need to replace it.
Its the same thing computer manufacurers have been doing for the last 10-15 years. If you call telling them your CD is broken the first thing they do is have you restore so its just like they sent it to you from the factory. Once you do that if the CD works they hang up. If it doesn't then they go down the warranty path.

I think you are confusing plagiarism with copyright.
Nitpick: the family consisted of a pastor and his wife, and 9 kids. Six of the children died in the crash....
Actually it was 5 children.
If you say you don't use drugs you're ignorant, stupid, or lying.
Ok, I'll bite ... ignorant
cavreader? Lundse seems to have ably answered your last post.
Thanks causality (777677), what you said rings so true in so many areas.
If a cell tower tells the phone its location doesn't it make sense to save that so the same question doesn't get asked over and over again?
Tracking the locations of cell towers != tracking a user
rsync
and mastered them to a DVD...
Your point is correct, but your test was flawed.

smelch follows up:
That wasn't an attack!
No additional comment is necessary

btw. I like your sig.
Anything they can do to help kill physical media is good for Apple.
And is good for me also. Files are so much better than physical media. IMHO.
there is nothing new.
So who made a product like the iPad before the iPad?
lost humor aside...

You see performing is work and they are bemoaning the work. So they slam their fans for not buying more of the stuff that requires no work.

Why the attack on DJB? Why is parent modded infomative? Sounds like parent has issues with DJB that calls into question the rest of what he writes.
