Sure, except that (especially in C++ code with templates) VS uses FAR less memory than the GNU toolchain when compiling the same code. This isn't a VS problem, it's a Firefox problem.

Wow, this is great, thanks!

In bash, C-x C-e is shorthand for "invoke $EDITOR on the current command line and run the result when $EDITOR exits". If you export EDITOR=vim you can get vim instead of emacs, and all is happy.

Yep, you sure can.

Clementine has had both of those features you mention for at least 6 months, if not a year. Give it another try, it's feature complete now and I really love it.

No, Israel started the 6 day war by bombing Egypt's airbases until they had no planes that could fly (the "threat of attack" by Egypt is just an excuse, anyone know knows the power of the two countries knows that Israel would have destroyed Egypt in an all-out war). The USS Liberty incident is yet another example of Israel abusing its power (hence the use of the connective phrase "also"). Thanks for calling me a racist, though; you troll well.

I'm an atheist, and a devout one at that.

> Honestly, one cannot be a satanist unless one is a christian, because Christianity makes it's hallmark the separates the continuity of good and evil into a polarity that is then split into autonomous creations.

Patently false; you should read up on Satanism, it's actually fairly interesting. There are a bunch of different ``sects'', one of which is comprised of people who are entirely atheists: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaVeyan_Satanism

I think most satanists call themselves satanists because they enjoy trolling (I enjoy trolling too, so it's not a criticism). If you meet a satanist, it is unlikely she actually believes in the Judeo-Christian idea of satan.

FYI, Israel started the 6 day war. Also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incident

> In all those cases you are potentially blocking incoming calls

False. It's pretty clear you've never used a Verizon 3G phone... I get calls while using the 'net all the time on my Droid.

Back to the original use case: I too, have never had a need to be on a voice call and surf the web at the same time. I could see where it would be useful, but I'll bet for the majority of folks it wouldn't add a whole lot of value.

You can block applications on a per-application basis too. I've blocked everything people have invited me to, except for the two applications I actually use. Not as good as opt-in, but it does exist.

My Motorola droid gets 93/100 on acid3.acidtests.org, which is the same score my Windows firefox 3.5 gets. My Linux 3.0.14 firefox only gets 72/100.

Wow. It's not about Windows! It's about being easiest. You could argue about whether this is really easier, but bringing Windows into it is unnecessary.

Which writs were rejected, and what were the companies involved? I'd love to know, this isn't just a "citation needed" bitch.
