   I use Firefox's default cookie policy of "Keep until I close Firefox", which makes it behave like Incognito mode, but also the Cookie Monster plugin[1] which lets me easily whitelist sites or domains with a click to allow their cookies to p

   ah, this is great. i started using nerdtree recently and bound control+x to :bd, and it annoyed me that doing that would close the buffer window leaving the nerdtree open, rather than just going to the next buffer. this plugin seems to fi

   Finally, it's written in PHP and the way they draw people in Farmville weirds me out. are you seriously saying that the language they use has anything to do with you not using it?

   http://m5hosting.com and http://singlehop.com are two that i'd recommend. one thing to watch out for with dedicated hosting providers is that the networks are sometimes not so great. you may get a great deal on hardware and tons of ban

   as someone that has done colocation, dedicated hosting, and VPS, i'm a huge fan of dedicated hosting. colocation was expensive and the hardware problems were all mine. i was pretty much tied to my local datacenter because i didn't want to

   that weird behavior of javascript can actually be used for xss attacks, by being able to assemble strings. for example: (![]+[])[+!+[]] produces an "a". https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1153383

    i'm a supporter of tor, but i'm not sure why they're making this out to be so alarming. t-mobile clearly presents its filtering as a family-safe content filter, and tor is software that makes it easy to bypass content filtering. this is o

    is that really a problem with itunes? if your house burned down, you'd lose all of the movies you had on DVD. at least with itunes movies, you can legally make backups of the files.

    i can't help but think that this was done by google to hurt flickr/yahoo, since flickr integrated picnik as their web-based photo editing tool. i used it quite a bit to do easy changes like cropping photos. maybe yahoo should have bought t

    i think you may be better suited with an add-on like ghostery which specifically blocks tracking scripts, rather than cutting off javascript completely.

    you're referencing a (completely static) webpage that was last updated 9 years ago. i think "graceful degradation" by today's standards would be using fallback fonts, avoiding cutting-edge html 5 stuff, and maybe some ie6 css hacks if you

    I don't believe this is google just because of all the manual labor involved. Google would scrape the whole site and call people with pre-recorded messages or something. for what it's worth, after i moved, google maps still showed that my
