Curses! You tricked me into visiting Gizmodo. I will tolerate no more of your cretinous games!

Do any of the bugfixes address the gaping memory leak problem that's been with the program for years now? I often see addons being blamed for leaking memory, but I've used Firefox on a number of different systems with and without addons and it's been a consistent problem throughout.

There are always frontiers to explore well beyond our current technological abilities. Sci-fi isn't about flying cars, hand-held computers and machines of big death, it's about unrealized potentialities and possibilities. There's no need to stick to space operas and other sci-fi tropes.

So, any subgroup of Anons that start acting with a coherent agenda such as defending freedom have begun coalescing into a more traditional organization of people.

Never gonna give you up/ Never gonna let you down/ Never gonna run around and desert you/ Never gonna make you cry/ Never gonna say goodbye/ Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.

As anyone can plainly see, Astley's words in their original context directly contravene the sentiment expressed in your comment.

...to [Sigh.] Fie! That's how I feel every time I contemplate the channel's long succession of horrid decisions. I don't think they need to worry about how the channel's name is texted; I can't imagine anyone I know caring enough to ever mention it.
