  • Re: Epic context menu

    [quote user="spamcourt"]Psst, Opera lets you enable and disable animated gifs in two clicks. Also images, plugins, sounds, javascript and cookies.[/quote]One click, if you add the buttons to toolbar. And it's had click-to-run plugins long before Firefox.

    [quote user="blakeyrat"]Since nobody's explained this in plain English am I understanding correctly that he put his Temp folder on a RAM Disk?[/quote]Yes.

    [quote user="joe.edwards"]Random EXE file from someone I barely know (who proclaims it is a "prank")? Let me just run that right now.[/quote]That's what virtual machines are for.

  • Re: "Just some content for now"

    [quote user="dkf"]It could be worse. Much worse. (I remember adjusting our college Windows systems to be forced to use this as their theme in celebration of the organizational color scheme. It looks bad here, but the longer you look at it, the more it makes your eyes water.)[/quote]This looks almost as bad as what an ancient prank ...

  • Re: "Just some content for now"

    [quote user="morbiuswilters"]That's actually a legitimate complaint, but isn't there a way to override the default styles so it looks correct? That's what you must do with a browser, right?[/quote]It's not a problem in browser, but I don't read my e-mail in browser, and I haven't seen an e-mail client that ...

    [quote user="morbiuswilters"]Seriously, what the hell is wrong with you anti-HTML-email people?[/quote]My main problem with HTML mail is that 2 out of 3 messages I receive either have text colour set to black, or background colour set to white (but not both at the same time), which results in invisible text because I use an inverted ...

  • Re: SID playing: Looking stuff up from a flat file has never been easier

    [quote user="bgodot"]Surely the ablity to determine if and when a computer script (like a SID file) will terminate is trivially solvable for any case?[/quote]Google halting problem.

  • Re: Becoming *that* vendor

    [quote user="morbiuswilters"]And if it breaks a site, it's because that site was coded by a moron. I know this is hard to understand if you work mostly with FOSS, but resizable text--like GUIs--are not some far-flung sci-fi concept. People use it. Today. In fact, people have been using it for some time. Only poorly-coded applications ...
