Comment Annual increase in CO2 (Score 1) 367

Also, it should be noted that the current annual increase in CO2 is about 2 ppm, which this graph shows. And, as can be read here(in danish), the largest fluctuations in the period from A.D. 1000 - 1800 was 7 ppm. So at present we are increasing CO2 levels every four years by more than the biggest fluctuations in said time period; I'm guessing it really is man-made.

Comment IETab as anti-phishing extension (Score 1) 129

My bank uses ActiveX on its website, and so I use the IE engine when using my bank online. In IETab I have a web page filter like this: "https://online.mybank.net/*", which will activate the IE engine. So if I am lead to a web page, say https://online.mybamk.net/, Firefox will still use the FF engine without ActiveX support and not the IE engine, and then phishing web sites trying to mimic my bank can't use ActiveX against me, when I have this setup.
