I wonder if Firefox will live beyond 9.0. Neither Netscape nor AOL did.

They can't be any more idiotic than the unremovable sourceforge.net ad currently hogging screen space on Slashdot's front page and trying to push Windows software at me. (And yes, I have the "Ads Disabled" box checked)

Yeah, so far Valve's credit card database has been stolen, but EA customers are the ones getting money stolen from their bank accounts.

An ARM platform fast enough to run Windows Mobile!

Yeah... even something as brain-dead as Windows 2000 supports multiple IPv4 assignment.

I can count on one finger how many photos I've printed in the past year. Then again, the only printer I have access to is a Kodak - it only prints 2MB images from the SD card reader, no Linux driver, and the Windows driver crashes halfway through the bloated .NET installer/ad-viewer.

Yeah, it's hard to stay "anonymous" when his stilted writing style sticks out like a baboon's arse.

They do? Well it's about time they switched to a more stable system.

Rendering precompiled bitmap data to screen.

That's a very bullshit definition of "parse fonts" you have there, MS apologist.

A mid-range GPU pulls about 10 gigaflops. This is a million times that.

They go "PW PW PW!"

Vimscript. Ewww. I know it takes backward compatibility seriously, but what I'd give for PCRE and syntax highlighting that didn't suck my netbook's CPU dry...

Fedora's excuse for this is that their distro can't boot properly with /usr on a separate partition anyway, so rather than fix that bug so it at least boots far enough to mount that filesystem — like every other distro I've installed with that partition layout seems capable of doing — they're just saying "fuck the standards" and doing their own thing.

Not only that, these Maxthon clone makers couldn't be bothered to do a 10 second google to check whether their software's name was original.

IBM probably does, if they haven't already phased them out in favour of the pure-128-bit-addressing versions.
