You're looking at the wrong logo. The "Firefox browser" logo is clearly a fox. The "Firefox organisation" logo is more abstract, and doesn't look like a fox.

If you Google search for "firefox" it shows you the "Firefox organisation" logo but says "Firefox web browser" underneath.

I'm interested in a different type of site isolation, which would stop advertisers etc. tracking you, without having to rely on a maintained list of tracking companies.

The idea is, that when browsing a particular site, all cookies set (including third party cookies) are kept in storage specific to the site being browsed (i.e. the site matching the domain in the address bar). E.g. if I'm browsing ZDNet.com, and a Facebook cookie is set, it is still stored somewhere under ZDNet.com cookie storage. If I then browsed Facebook.com, it would not be able to see that cookie, as it would have its own separate cookie storage.

Obviously it would need to be possible to add some exceptions on a per-site basis.

Ever hear of a feature like this?

You must not have been looking at the same quality surveys then.. 6 out of the top 10 car models in this satisfaction survey from last year are VW or one of its brands (Skoda):

Even the lowest scoring VW is still mid-table

They don't have the authority to arrest someone for hating Jewish people. They have the authority to arrest someone for inciting hatred against Jewish people (or any other ethnic group).

"Where do you draw the line?" is a reasonable question, but you can't use it as shorthand for "this is a stupid law": You can be arrested for killing somebody, so why can't you be arrested for looking at me funny? Where do you draw the line?

Obviously, Republicanism is a political alignment, which can be debated and will change during your lifetime. Your ethnic background simply depends who your parents were and is eternal.

Way to go! Instead of using your vote to keep out the worst possible outcome for everyone (Romney), you're throwing it away. Or are you let down because Obama is just a good president, but can't walk on water like you wanted?

The rich in the US are only interested in their own wealth, and not the longterm wealth of their country. So they don't want to ensure that all citizens have a good education and are able to get healthcare they need. This results in the US having one of the worst social mobility ratings in the developed world. Land of the opportunity for the filthy rich to become even richer, and most of the rest to rot.

I don't disagree with your comment per se, but I think you missed the point of Nursie's comment.

sanman2 said "India's poor" are "turning their noses up" at the Nano.

However, 32.7% of Indians live in poverty. Because of this, Nursie rightly pointed out that "India's poor" probably have bigger concerns than which car to buy.

If sanman2 had said "members of India's lower middle class are already turning their noses up at the Nano" there would be no argument here.

I have been to India several times in the last 10 years and seen huge numbers of people sleeping on the streets and in shanty towns.

It reminds me of the superb 1971 film The Andromeda Strain directed by Robert Wise. The virus in the film came from space and under a microscope is seen to grow. The new image of Mercury in the National Geographic article looks eerily like the growing virus... Sadly I can't find an image for this at the moment.

Logic failure. Just because you have one account for social use and one for business, one of which you could call "fake", and you consider that "okay", doesn't suddenly mean that you have to accept that all fake Facebook accounts have to be "okay". Fake accounts for the purposes of astroturfing or propaganda are definitely not okay.

Just because some of your peers do it doesn't necessarily make it okay. http://news.slashdot.org/story/09/07/15/1351204/Internet-Astroturfer-Fined-300000

The weird part is that some of these geeky proposals seem to have been sprung on total non-geeks. For example, having to sort out an accidentally-minimised window, or having to drive them to a PC... Doesn't this seem a bit self-indulgent of the person doing the preposing?

I wonder how red the recipients of these proposals went when their friends asked how the question was popped?

The United States likes dictators if they serve it's interests.
