Just tried that, no luck. I'm guessing that the referrer has to match hardwaresecrets.com rather than being empty.

The strangest thing I've ever seen flying (although not at Kirtland) is a Citroen 2CV.

I can't imagine a game of Hands down, Top Gun lasting very long.

Over the last few days I noticed that some of the height of the buttons was too short for their text and the search input was also shorter than normal but that seems to be fixed now (FF35/Linux).

This one cost £50M and seeing as it landed intact, within 5km of the centre of its target landing area they obviously did a pretty good job getting it the surface. If they'd spent a bit MORE money/time they might have engineered the probe more reliably so it actually opened properly...

Personally I watch TV in the garden. The glare is pretty bad on sunny days so I put a large blanket over the my head/TV.

Have you managed to find the search functionality on the mobile version of /. 'cause I haven't. You'd assume it's there somewhere but it must be well hidden.

Personally, using FF Mobile on Android, I just "Request Desktop Site" and get /. classic. Then again that's on a Nexus 7 so the classic version is quite usable, not sure if it would work so well on a <6'' mobile

The way I read it he's not complaining about long-form posts in general but specifically about the content of your posts.

I'd happily sign but it says:

Petition Not Available

The content of this petition is under review.

I agree but unfortunately /. (or more specifically Dice) doesn't care about usability (have you seen Beta?), they only care about page views/eyes on ads. If users never viewed a BH posts then they'd quickly stop him posting.

Personally I saw the abbreviated version of this post without taking in the fact it was yet another BH diatribe, I'd already loaded the page before I realised what it was so Dice's stats will register a hit on the page despite the fact I didn't want to read 90% of the rubbish contained in the OPs post.

IMHO a Greasemonkey userscript would be one way* to allow users to more easily avoid BH posts completely and help get the message to Dice that we don't want these steaming piles of elephant shit.

* I'd be happy to consider other methods such as native plugins or whatever...

Someone should write a userscript to do that, maybe put it on kickstarter, I know I'd help fund it...

Are SimCity's homeless people in Dwarf Fortress or the player's homeless people?

According to Elon "Didn't get good landing/impact video. Pitch dark and foggy."
