As funny as this is, this is pretty much how it went with Asherons Call 2.

I was agreeing with you.

Then you'll be called paranoid and accused of FUD.

The answer I've seen elsewhere is yes, NoScript blocks this (unless you allow it).

There aren't enough resources available for doing that, only for the filtering. If you want to have the authorities actually investigate crimes against children you're going to have to have a 15 cent tax for that.

Specifically, third party scripts and cookies. There's nothing I hate more than having to reject a slew of cookies and also having to pick through noscript to find out what I need to allow just to view a webpage. If it's too non-intuitive to weed through all that garbage I just close the tab.

I think it's been proven again and again that the only privacy available on the net is that which you go and secure for yourself. You almost have to become obsessive-compulsive fighting against cookies, scripts, and counters to protect yourself nowadays.

I know I'm late on this, but I haven't seen it mentioned yet. Doubletake is fantastic, and I've yet to have it fail me when moving stuff from point a to b on Windows systems. You didn't mention cost as a factor in the summary but I should note that it is most certainly not free, but if you have to make sure it gets there it may be worth it.

I have! I've used everything from the Odyssey through the Wii - I'm talking trackballs, light pens, R.O.B., the Atari paddle controllers (which are my 2nd favorite of all time thanks to Pong and Night Driver) and nothing has played as well as the SNES controller across so many games for any of the systems I've played. Heck, it was even useful in RPGs like FF3(6). On a related note, the worst controller of all time was the CDi.

I have always maintained that the original SNES controller is the best gaming controller ever developed. It has the right feel, just enough buttons, and great responsiveness. I haven't seen a better pad in 20+ years of gaming.

I can't claim credit for it as someone else on /. already said it, but who is to say that our western notions of freedom and democracy are right for the rest of the world?

I say we go green and focus a concave mirror on the guy. We get our pound of (burnt) flesh and the planet doesn't suffer for it!

If it's one thing I know about the monetization of space its that the end result involves a xenomorph in your gullet and some son-of-a-bitch named Burke getting away with it by sabotaging certain freezers on the way home.

I hope everyone's spam filters are up to date, because I'm sure crimeware authors would exploit it first..

To reserve the right to decide how it gets used in relation to me.
