locked in a box for 23 hours a day is trivial?

they're both fucking retarded situations.. would you prefer to have 1 finger cut off or 2? or should people be leaving your fingers the fuck alone?

not if they're sane, we're at the tail end of the xbox and ps3's life cycle and they're really showing their age

dx.com? what the fuck are you even talking about, maybe you should actually provide a link to a better product for the same price?

i care, i just don't care enough not to buy one.

most ACs are just trolls, so how is it irrational bias?

so just make it default copyrighted or default bsd and have done with it.

gpu acceleration isn't needed for what the web does now, it's needed for what the web can do in the future.

ie isn't the mainstream any more and i really hope that turning off features like webgl make it into the other browsers soon so people can stop listing this as a concern. how hard is it to block a tag?

integrated domain auth isn't that big a deal, on firefox they just have to put their pass in and click remember. if you want it to happen automatically you need to add the domain to about::config somehow, i don't care enough to figure it out but it probably isn't that hard.

heh, their help desk is hilarious, had to get a dsl password reset, after 30 mins on the line to one of their staff from Papua New Guinea (i believe they actually give them english lessons to get them into the role) and them attempting to sms me the new randomised password 5 times and receiving nothing we were at an impasse. i gave up for the night, called back the next day to get one of their remaining australian staff, he reset the password and told me it over the phone and i was rolling. about a week later one of the sms came through with my new *email* password. efficient.
