I don't agree with Like. It's good for socializing, but not for this. I've never heard anybody say they 'like' an article from Wikipedia, but they might find it interesting, so they'd +1 it.

If you use XP Mode, it still works only on XP. That is not a native solution, it's just a workaround.

Ending support is only going to make it worse. Google and Mozilla are committed to security. Microsoft is too, and that is why they postponed the ending of support. It will be a chaotic world if Microsoft stops releasing security fixes to X

I agree with you. Microsoft itself said (some time ago) that many of Windows' crashes were caused by third-party software or drivers, and I believe that. Even so, they reduced the number of crashes that occur, and greatly improved crash-rec

I believe it only shows up once. I've seen it the first time I went to TechCrunch today and now it isn't displaying anymore. Also, it appears to show only while the page is loading.

Except it won't absorb anything if the snow reflects all of the light. It makes sense to absorb heat when there is little or no snow, but it doesn't at all when snow covers all of the surface.

I won't believe in those findings until I see a correlation of beauty/IQ and family income. I've never seen a person that grew in a rich family be downright ugly.

I know this is slightly out of topic, but since the author mentioned it, after seeing his presentation [1] on VP8 vs H264, I can't really agree with his conclusions. WebM clearly outruns H264 on HD video. It doesn't lose color information a
