the rootbeer is easy and fun to make, but its kind of hard to get the timing right of when you are supposed to put them in the fridge

It really depends on the type of reactor. Thorium reactors cant melt down. The main cost of most reactors is the huge amount of money that they put into safety measures. That would be significantly reduced for thorium reactors. The main problem is that they still do cost a lot and don't have a significantly large…

VOTE: Steelseries Syberia V2.

as far as I know, mobile Firefox is just going to be using the decoders of the system, so since android supports it, they will. Maybe a bit of semantics, but if Google ever drops H.264, then afaik Mozilla wont need to do anything to follow suit, so imo its not just a small difference because they haven't really…

the sad thing is that people will pay to update to this. I dont think that there was a single thing in there that even remotely looked like something that would make me upgrade. regardless of whether or not metro will be good, at least its not the same product with some renaming and small insignificant changes.

be that as it may, a lot of things i wouldnt trust myself to do on a car that I plan to trust me to get from place to place safely

i guess i just dont see the point in spending $50 on something that I very probably wouldnt be able to fix myself anyway. I guess it might just be because my father is a mechanic, that's who ive always gone to see, but...

The problem is, is that to my knowledge all of the engine related require you be able to get the code, and at least on older cars (i dont know if they made it easier for cars with computer screens), you need to have the tool to read the codes, which i would be willing to bet nobody but a mechanic would have. So if…

im fairly sure they just made that a fix in firefox, since it was a ff developer that made the addon

im very much so not a fanatic of open source, but i do think that it would be more in line with how firefox has previously chosen, to not do it for that reason.

another instance of people overreacting about something in firefox that doesnt actually effect them?

for example, my laptop uses the nvidia optimus technology, which afaik, does not work under linux. I'm not rallying against linux, but i just don't see the use in learning to use something new, that from what i can see, won't add anything to my experience, and will make using games and video editing more difficult.…

im all for free software, but like i said, they still spend all the time trying to do things so that they can use windows software and whatnot.

i just think its silly. You could make that case for the tens of other plugins that are oft required for a lot of other things. Why doesn't firefox support silverlight right out of the box, or divx? I mean, i know its a matter of popularity, but i would say java (i wouldnt know if that could even be bundled in) or a…

Whats the point? Every time i see someone with linux, they either have a partition with windows on it, running windows in a vm, or they spend half their time getting programs to work in wine. Or spending half their time complaining or dealing with the fact that some driver or other doesnt work with their hardware.

i think that that is more of a problem with how flash works. If flash were to silently update, then it would work exactly the same way. Like i said, i agree the streamlined process is nice and nifty, but in the distant future when flash is dead, i mean i know they can just take suppport out again, but it will be…

well, as long as its only for the screensaver and its not like, inserting ads in between pages of my books, what do i care? So far i've lived with the random pictures that came with the kindle, had i been able to pay $30 less for the ad-equivalents to those pictures, i totally would have done it.

i say proprietary because its not open sourced, but more because firefox is open sourced. They refused to support H.264 because it had patents on it. I feel like directly including flash is a similar situation. Flash is owned by someone, so i feel like firstly, they wouldnt want to have that sort of thing (how i think…

im pretty sure there is a bug for getting rid of this because of the sort of uselessness of it, and from their perspective, its outdated in the sense that it reminds you about version numbers, which they are trying to forget.

built in flash is basically the only thing that i particularly like about Chrome since i don't perceive it to be any faster, and its been proven time and again that Chrome uses more memory. But tbh, while i would like having it built in, it would make 64 bit support more difficult than it already is (since ff doesnt…
