> the idea Europeans have this food business sorted is laughable. It was a scamdal. and it IS sorted out. And EU has the regulations in place, as opposed to USA.

I'm planing to move to fastmail.fm in the near future. I find the Gmail UI very sluggish and quite the opposite of being user friendly, and I also don't have any guarantee I won't become a horror story about how Google automatically shut do

What of the UI? It's the most customizable UI in a browser. You have skins, themes, any element can be placed anywhere/hidden. What's the problem?

My first thought when I read the title was "Please use mercurial", because git is just a complicated tool that most of the time provides a distraction from real work (admittedly, a tool that gives a wonderful false sense of superiority - "z

Starcraft II, seriously? It's got the same gameplay as the original had in the 90s (which already felt old at the time).

"When I go into Firefox, I want to be able to override every single configuration option on a per-page basis, or even better, with url pattern-matching rules. Doesn't that seem just patently obvious?" Opera has per-site configuration option

Should I what? Be 85, or learn to code? I so hate people telling me what I should or shouldn't do without even knowing me.

It's not the case. This is much more serious.

No. What does that have to do with anything?

That's all nice and dandy, but check this out. For a few months now I've been noticing that emails from my inbox were being moved after a few days into spam, without any kind of warning. This happens once every two weeks, more or less. We'r

Answered the "why" somewhere below, I think you're more concerned about the "how". Place your tab bar on the left (vertically) and make it wrap to multiple lines (or columns, in this case). I have two columns at the moment, the second one w

You are right, your scenario is much more visible nowadays. It's just that I have in mind my old single core CPU and how Chrome managed to grind my system to a halt with only a dozen tabs.

> Most of your 101 tabs should be idle, not active, so my guess would be "not much". Keep open in the background a few js-intensive websites (e.g. gmail, twitter) and your tabs will be flickering like the proverbial Christmas tree. Depe

I always hold at least two digits' worth of tabs open, usually grouped into stacks. For instance, I have a stack of music/radio related tabs (e.g. youtube), several stacks with documentation that I infrequently need, stacks with tabs that I

Right now I have 101 tabs running, and only 6 cores in my CPU. Do you know how much context switching costs in terms of performance? Do you know what the overhead would be if I were using Chrome? So spare me, please. When general purpose co

You can't be serious. This place is Apple central, you usually get banned if you say something bad about Steve Jobs.
