Firefox is unstable on Linux, as best as I can tell, only because of either extremely poorly written add-ons or (especially) the Flash plugin. Personally, I prefer Links in graphics mode, since I like my webpages more often without a lot of flashy bullshit.

My concerns with Chrome stem mostly out of the massive privacy concerns, hence the brilliance of the NSA comment. 'Anonymous mode' is no substitute for customizability. My Firefox doesn't leak referrers, can get plugged into Tor with ease, doesn't run scripts unless I tell it to, and has the Web Developer plugin. Meanwhile, Chrome is doing shit like reporting back all the websites I visit to a centralized database.

Use your damn heads.

Excuse me, but isn't playing paintball in any sort of situation where cover is provided essentially identical to a combat situation in every way except how the gun fires? Do you not have to remain stealthy when possible, find cover when available, camouflage yourself, and anticipate your enemy's moves?

This is not to say, of course, that banning paintball will reduce violence in any way. In fact, that's the stupidest goddamn thing I've ever heard. Letting people play paintball encourages them to play paintball. If you want a reduction in violent crime, why don't you fix the broken economy so people don't have to rob stores to eat?

Brilliant. Mod parent up.

Mod parent down, for having a stupid username, and being ugly.

Mod parent up, for being modded down by an asshat who uses the word "troll" to mean "person I disagree with."

Mod parent up, for being modded down by an asshat with no capability for abstract thought.

Yeah. Really.

CIA WORLD FACEBOOK! Give all your friends at the NSA your RSA keys! We aren't going to hit you with this baseball bat! CIA WORLD FACEBOOK!

No. The infringement upon obvious market values is instituted by a corrupt government to provide increased revenue and offensive PR for its controlling companies. Information is free, and you are doing no crime by sharing it, rather, you're helping people.

Mmn, let's expand that example out a little. US advertises big "internet is great for PR!" program, gives internet access to impoverished countries. But wait! They paid for it, so let's not let any of these sites about how the US government is stabbing kittens show up to the people who receive the free internet! Beggars can't be choosers! But, wait! Aren't we, the customers and the taxpayers, paying for that internet access?

absolutely!

It may be illegal, but the law is quite impotent without a means for identification and enforcement.
