I always thought OS X was really clunky compared to Windows where everything is fairly uniform and well labeled. Also, in OS X you can't have simple features like "changing the color of the mouse cursor" in OS X because Apple

Now that we're putting our thinking caps on - do you really want your business to depend on freebies from Google? Does anyone really want to become dependent on a web app, where you have no control over whether you move to the next ver

Thanks, but they obviously put all of their fine work into the Gnome front-end and using a different spin doesn't get you any of that. The number of customizations that need to be installed and maintained between updates to make this O

I can't imagine having to depend on Apple products. They just seem like the most unfriendly, restrictive company ever.

Yeah, it's so surprising that Microsoft didn't implement the "Netscape Plugin Application Programming Interface" (which was just for web browses) or other interfaces that weren't build for Windows.

You edited it to say that. Before it said something about a "hot blonde that was too expensive to touch". And I'm not PC at all and I didn't downvote you, but it's still good advice.

Actually, there are sites that already can and do detect adblock so however hard the adblockers are working to stop this, it's not working. Getting hung up on the fact that you can't do it in the initial request is introducing a s

Sites could easily refuse to serve content to people who run adblockers or who turn off Javascript. Instead, by serving their content upon request, the sites are implicitly agreeing to my terms. So, I'm not doing anything wrong by runn

I don't buy it. American people do want drugs in their community and in their society or else the US wouldn't be the biggest market for illicit drugs in the world.

Yep and they refuse to accept issues at GitHub and their GitHub repos are all just mirrors, so they make it really hard to contribute.

Good for you, but it seems like most people don't like the sound of LibreOffice when compared to OpenOffice since the complaint about its name is never far behind any mention of the product.

And again - you haven't proven one thing wrong with Henry Makow by simply stating his views and saying that you don't like them. Sorry, but you don't win arguments by saying your opinion over and over. You can think so, but y

And your inability to make an argument of any kind has also been duly noted. Did you actually read the RatWiki page? It lists a bunch of cherry picked facts about his views along with some snarky commentary. Wow! Really powerful stuff there

The whole article does not go "on and on" about anything. Everything you talked about is just in the first section. The last 2 sections talk about bankers and the media. You've also quite obviously misunderstood the sentence
