Uh... NoScript? They move perfectly fine for me. At first glance, the biggest annoyance is the ridiculously large size of the text.

Mozilla should expect a lot more fleeing users with that attitude. I just just about ready to ditch their browser anyway, and they only keep making me want to do it more. The only problem is that the the competition--Chrome--sucks, and is single-handedly the reason Firefox's interface has sucked for the last few years. Ever since Google released the crap and Mozilla decided to make Firefox a carbon copy of it.

Are you sure about that? openSUSE user here... runs great on my laptop.

The "massive power savings" of using an LCD screen might not be worth it compared to the far superior contrast ratios that a good old-fashioned CRT TV can provide. On those, black really is black, and it really makes a difference for many of the types of games and movies I would watch. If CRT-based HDTVs were still around, that would probably be my first choice even today since SED TVs are still nowhere to be found.

I can't find NoScript for Firefox for Android, but I did find Adblock Plus for it. I'll give it a try, at the least it could allow me to browse the web without wasting bandwidth (and money) on ads, but it still won't solve the YouTube ad problem... that would require a system-wide ad blocker, which Android just won't allow without hacking.

I use DownloadHelper normally. But yeah, I agree. I normally only ever see ads on my damn Android phone though. On a PC I "correct" it by installing the extensions before doing anything else when running a fresh browser, but on a phone--I have zero tolerance for ads (especially the fact that they are commercials, audio and video and everything). Just one of them and I back out of it.

To be fair, even using YouTube on my phone is rare, because Google has successfully destroyed it long ago. Want to find a music video that is not live? Too bad, it's not there, because the copyright holders don't want you watching their shit on "mobile device," so if you want to find anything at all you'd better be on a desktop anyway.

Really, I don't know what I'd do without them. Probably stop using the Internet as much as I do now, find some alternatives, or do a hell of a lot more bitching.

When running a fresh new installation of a web browser, the first ad I see immediately causes me to halt everything I'm doing and install those three plugins. Annoyingly, I usually don't even hit two consecutive websites before that happens--the wretched fucking things are literally everywhere. Video ads really fucking piss me off, and even more on Android, because the god damn things are *designed* to reduce your access to the system, which effectively prevents installing ad blocking software without gaining root.

I have actually in the past, when confronted with an ad while trying to watch a video, cranked the volume all the way down and turned the phone upside down. If I did happen to see what brand was advertising, I add them to my mental blacklist of products and services to AVOID. Yes, I am so against advertising, it has the exact *opposite* effect on me when it comes to buying things. I'm sorry, but I can think for myself, I can do my own research and come up with an educated conclusion as to what I want or need. I don't fucking need someone spewing bullshit, trying to force me to buy their junk.

These days? When I even come across ONE ad when attempting to watch YouTube, I have zero tolerance. I close it. It is not worth the hassle. If I want to watch something bad enough, it will be on a proper computer with the necessary extensions. Android is one of the worst platforms to visit web pages or watch videos on.

Also... I should point out that I use the front-right pocket for the wallet, front-left pocket for change. When I have my cell phone and need a convenient place for it, and/or a thumb drive or pocket knife, they also go in the front-left, with the change. Works great for me. Keys? You seriously put them in your pocket? I just hang mine from one of my right-side belt loops. Yeah--that means my keys are noisy--but I have to admit, I don't mind hearing them when I walk. They serve as a reminder that I didn't, you know, forget them in the house (oops!) or something. And if I have my keys, 99.9% of the time I also have my wallet, so I'm not without my license and money, because I habitually pick up my wallet and keys, in that order.

Your pants make "jingle-jangle" noises when you walk with change in your pocket? I don't know what kind of pants you wear (too baggy?), but I can honestly say that mine keep my change secure enough (with the help of gravity) that as long as I'm not leaning over in some odd way, I never hear my change jingle. Ever. Only if I happen to put my hand in my pocket and jiggle the inner lining around on purpose, at which point it's me consciously making the noise on purpose.

Nope, I have a wallet. Why would I roll my bills up in a ball? And I will admit that it seems to be relatively rare these days that I encounter a totally screwed up, wrinkled dollar bill, but they do exist. But my point really was, even if rare, every single bill that has a random creased side or corner adds up and adds to the annoyance of managing it and working with the entire stack money. Just four duds can make the whole pile a pain in the ass to work with. And I'm talking ones here; assuming you have 15 of them, of which 8 are pretty neat and the rest have random creases here and there, it adds up and can be a pain in the ass.

Also, I wish I could say that my wallet didn't get so stuffed so badly with more bills, but it does. Then again, I refuse to pay $100 for a little piece of leather to keep my plastic cards, driver's license and bills organized in. Maybe that's my problem, I'm too cheap, but either way, it doesn't change the fact that pockets come included with the cost of all the pants and shorts that I've ever bought, they work well for holding change silently and securely the vast majority of the time, and for me it's nice to be able to grab a couple of coins instead of reaching for a wallet, opening it and fiddling with paper.

Well, I'll take a pocket full of dollar coins over dollar bills any day. I like coins--small, they have some nice weight to them, and they're easier to handle in large numbers for the most part. They won't fold, rip or get crinkled. The only major downside? Coins tend to fall out of my pocket if I lay down without taking them out.

On the other hand... have you ever had a wallet full of bills? Dollar bills, like pennies, can really add up. Add a couple fives, tens and twenties and your wallet will be about to burst, not wanting to close properly. Then the next time you pull your wallet out, you have to deal with the nightmare of wading through tens of loose pieces of paper, all folded and bent and deformed in any way imaginable, to get to the bills you need. And often because those damn 1-dollar bills, about as annoying as the damn penny and nickel (though not *quite* as worthless), end up taking space that just isn't really available, and having fewer bills (ie. larger dollar amounts; fives, tens, etc.) would be more pleasant to work with.

IMO they should ditch the penny and make the nickel the smallest measurement of change, and get rid of the $1 bill while they're at it making the $5 the smallest bill. Bring the 50-cent piece and the dollar coin into full circulation... and maybe even some of the old "eagle" coins ($2.50, $5, $10, maybe even $20). I would seriously almost NEVER use bills if they did that. I would be more likely to use the $10 and $20 bills than any other if I used any bills at all, but anything smaller, I'd personally use the coin. I hate the physical size of the dime though, I wish they'd give it a makeover... it's just too damn small to handle. The nickel is pretty bad too, but not quite as bad.

NSA? Is that you?

Under this criteria, not a single planet (or former planet) in this solar system should keep its name, as pretty much all of them run the risk of offending someone who prays to a different diety than the ones that the ancient Romans and Greeks did. Hell, while they're at it, they might as well go through all the astronomical catalogs and weed out all these pesky offensive "religious" names, because they're all over the place. It's pathetic how far people will go these days to attempt to not "offend" even a fly...

Full-fledged computers can barely even keep track of time on their own without constantly pinging a network time server, there's no way in hell I would want my watch--of all things--to be absolute shit for timekeeping. Also, all I need my watch to do is show me the time and date, nothing else, and light up on the somewhat-frequent occasions that I need to see it in the dark. Not to mention, a cell phone can barely last a day running a modern "mobile" operating system... does anyone really think these "smart" watches will last a week without recharging? No thanks, I'll keep my current watch, which doesn't need a change of batteries for a couple *years*, and no need to plug into the wall every two days to charge. It's bad enough having to recharge my phone daily, hell will freeze over before I accept having to do the same thing with a watch.

Got killed when the Tesla ejected (rejected?) him.

...would be shutting down these god damn Windows machines that are infected zombies taking on the malicious tasks that this whole damn situation is about. No-IP is nothing without Microsoft's infected junk spewing garbage and infections all over the Internet. It's not like Microsoft doesn't hold the keys to immobilize a system running their own operating system anyway, they have the kill switch built right in to the OS before you even buy the license to run it in the form of WGA.
