That is soooo not what happened. I'll never understand: If what Mozilla did was so wrong then why can't the people shaking their finger at them be honest about what actually happened?

He donated $1,000 to have ads like this produced: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PgjcgqFYP4. We heard about it because his own employees raised the issue.

Saying he was forced to resign because of a vote he made is just plain dishonest.

So why exactly is it that they should wait until it's off-the-shelf? "It's not their job" is not an answer.

"The technology exists. It's not their job to fix the technology that is inadequate."

Your clarification is in conflict with your point, yea that is a change in position.

That's a nice little shift in position on the matter.

Heh, Not interested in European politics? You've just admitted you're not a high enough level of nerd. Jock! Get him!!

Yeah, good thing this is Star Trek and we all use one brand of phone so all of the engineering is super simple.

Ummm those towns face that inevitability anyway.

That's true. I didn't vote for Romney because he ticked 'corrupt' on this application for president.

Do you remeber setting jumpers on your sound card and then configuring each app to talk to it? Do you remember having multiple boot disks with different TSRs loaded so that you can have just enough of your 640k to start a game and have your mouse driver work? Do you remember how you didn't have example code you could easily find after an easy Google search that you could just copy from your browser and paste into your IDE all without preventing your family members from using the phone?

Bitching about the bloat of a modern Windows install in comparison to a floppy-based version of DOS is like complaining about how many miles per gallon a Boeing passenger gets compared to your scooter.

I'm guessing that joke's a lot funnier outside of the United States.

Good programming languages cannot save a bad design.

Yes, that's why we drive electric cars now.

Is that actually possible or is there a drawback like "it's way too heavy" or "there's lots of energy but it doesn't come out quickly" or something like that? I know nothing of how plutonium is used to actually generate electricity.
