sebsebsebDiablo-D3: schestowitz  personally I think from like user features and such point of view, that are seen, that Firefox is quite rubbish really after Firefox 3.6, under the hood though the rendering engine Gecko of course things have improved and probably by a lotOct 19 00:40
DaemonFC[19:37] <DaemonFC> klh: I believe that the two biggest threats to America are Godzilla and Homosexuals Oct 19 00:41
DaemonFC[19:38] <DaemonFC> maybe not in that orderOct 19 00:41

DaemonFC[19:38] <DaemonFC> but the Homosexuals are probably not busy stockpiling anthraxOct 19 00:41

cubezzzI compiled icecat just for fc1Oct 19 00:52
sebsebsebcubezzz: DaemonFC if you try and edit the Firefox 4.0 user agent string and add in the user agent string yourself the normal user agents editing way, it just changes back to the default as wellOct 19 00:52
DaemonFCOpera's OpenGL backend will work fine with Mesa 7.10.3 or newerOct 19 00:52
sebsebsebalso something else that annoys me Firefox 4.0 and I guess all later versions as wellOct 19 00:52
DaemonFCother than that, they've only blacklisted really old proprietary driversOct 19 00:52
sebsebsebcan't seem to have the same webpage open more than onceOct 19 00:52

sebsebsebDaemonFC: this distros and user agent stringOct 19 00:54
sebsebsebDaemonFC: it wil remove the distro if add in one selfOct 19 00:54

Diablo-D3[07:42:35] <sebsebseb> Diablo-D3: DaemonFC Diablo-D3  Firefox is like Ubuntu these days really, not as good as it used to be!Oct 19 00:55
Diablo-D3ubuntu was never good, so Im not sure what you're talking aboutOct 19 00:55
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: hehOct 19 00:55
sebsebsebI guessOct 19 00:55
Diablo-D3firefox in the past year has dropped about 1gb in memory usageOct 19 00:56
sebsebsebCPU useage?Oct 19 00:56
sebsebsebRAM?Oct 19 00:56
Diablo-D3and before you go ZOMG 1GB?! I usually have about 300 tabs openOct 19 00:56
cubezzzthat's nonsensicalOct 19 00:56
cubezzzmy machines don't even have 1 gig of memoryOct 19 00:56
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: yeah bingo, with enough tabs open, and it seems espesaily if some have Flash in them, and Firefox will really slow down in a Linux distroOct 19 00:56
Diablo-D3yes, and on your machines you wouldnt have 300 tabs and 12 windowsOct 19 00:56
Diablo-D3sebsebseb: flash isnt in firefox thoughOct 19 00:56
Diablo-D3it uses a different process to run flash in nowOct 19 00:57
Diablo-D34.0 first added that iircOct 19 00:57
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: ah okOct 19 00:57
Diablo-D3so now flash cant slow down firefox, nor bloat the process upOct 19 00:57
sebsebsebwell I am on Firefox 3.6 again as I was sayingOct 19 00:57
sebsebseband yaeh they got that from ChromeOct 19 00:57
sebsebseb or Chromium evenOct 19 00:57
Diablo-D3well noOct 19 00:57
Diablo-D3they didntOct 19 00:57
Diablo-D3they got it from a plugin that used to exist to do thatOct 19 00:57
cubezzzthere's no browser that's old computer friendlyOct 19 00:57
Diablo-D3predates chromeOct 19 00:57
Diablo-D3cubezzz: there isOct 19 00:58
cubezzzexcept maybe lynx or links or some text only thingOct 19 00:58
Diablo-D3its just not meant for desktopsOct 19 00:58
Diablo-D3but its not like firefox wastes memoryOct 19 00:58
Diablo-D3_pages_ doOct 19 00:58
Diablo-D3load 300 html only pagesOct 19 00:58
Diablo-D3firefox isnt going to use 2gb of memory.Oct 19 00:58
Diablo-D3no js, no css, no images, just html 1.0, like the internet was 20 years agoOct 19 00:58
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: cubezzz  DaemonFC  I used to think Firefox was absoutly great since I first started using it with Firefox 0.8, but then Firefox 4.0 came along and I tried it and ah!Oct 19 00:59
cubezzzDiablo-D3, a user with a firefox hotkey started up 50 instances of firefoxOct 19 00:59
Diablo-D3its going to use about as much memory as browsers before firefox didOct 19 00:59
cubezzzthe computer grounded to a haltOct 19 00:59
cubezzzso now no more hotkey for firefoxOct 19 00:59
Diablo-D3cubezzz: yes, seeing as it wasnt meant to run multiple instances ;)Oct 19 00:59
Diablo-D3also, a shit computer is a shit computer, dont blame firefoxOct 19 00:59
Diablo-D3firefox is meant for desktopsOct 19 00:59
Diablo-D3older desktops _arent desktops anymore_Oct 19 01:00
Diablo-D3they're about as powerful as a cell phoneOct 19 01:00
cubezzzI bet they could have crashed any PC Oct 19 01:00
cubezzzunless it had 8 gigs of ramOct 19 01:00
*Diablo-D3 actually does have 8gb ;)Oct 19 01:00
Diablo-D3but yeah, what Im saying isOct 19 01:00
cubezzzalt-ctrl-f repeatsOct 19 01:00
Diablo-D3websites do complex shit nowOct 19 01:00
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: cubezzz DaemonFC  I used to think Ubuntu was really great when I first started using it with the second relase in 2005,  Ubuntu 5.04, and I continued thinking it was great, untill well they started patching Gnome 2 in 9.04 doing things I didn't like to it, little stuff, 9.10 some little things I didn't like, 10.04 the big ah, and so on from there.  Here's the thing though I wanted it to go all main streame, I thought Ubuntu 8.10 Oct 19 01:00
sebsebsebwould have been a realy good one to go main streame for example, for people who knew  how to use it and that, or for people with help from someone that did.Oct 19 01:00
Diablo-D3its possible to make firefox use 2gb on just one tab with a complex enough siteOct 19 01:01
Diablo-D3thats just the way it isOct 19 01:01
cubezzzhotkeys shouldnt repeat anywayOct 19 01:01
cubezzzwhy would anyone want thatOct 19 01:01
Diablo-D3its not firefox's faultOct 19 01:01
Diablo-D3sebsebseb: Ive been using debian for like 15 years plus or minusOct 19 01:01
Diablo-D3ubuntu is yawn.Oct 19 01:01
cubezzzDebian is better, yesOct 19 01:01
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: cubezzz  DaemonFC  So it seems to me that certain open source software goes main streame or really trys to go main stremae, and yep ti becomes bad.  Firefox being an example of open source software that went main streame and then for me went bad, and Ubuntu being an example of a distro that since they tried to make it go a bit more main streame, started becoming rather bad for me really.  To much stuff by default that I didn't want, Oct 19 01:02
sebsebsebincluding the new branding even in 10.04.Oct 19 01:02
Diablo-D3sebsebseb: but I dont agree with saying firefox is badOct 19 01:02
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: well it's still better than Internet Explorer of course for example :)Oct 19 01:02
Diablo-D3mozilla is currently trying to make every part of firefox as efficient as possibleOct 19 01:02
sebsebseband Gecko has obviously improved a lotOct 19 01:02
Diablo-D3they havent gone through this cycle in yearsOct 19 01:02
cubezzzthe end experience is bad, even if it's not firefox's faultOct 19 01:02
sebsebseb,but the actsaul user interfaceOct 19 01:02
sebsebseband suchOct 19 01:02
Diablo-D3the change between 3.6 and current trunk is HUGEOct 19 01:02
sebsebseband features in the brwoser itself that are seen by usersOct 19 01:02
sebsebseband how things are by default and all thatOct 19 01:03
sebsebsebI much prefer old versions :)Oct 19 01:03
Diablo-D3javascript is a shitload faster, windows 2D accel is better, linux 2D accel actually exists nowOct 19 01:03
*magentar has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)Oct 19 01:03
Diablo-D3sebsebseb: but thats where you get it wrongOct 19 01:03
Diablo-D3browsers didnt changeOct 19 01:03
cubezzzI mean, can I make hotkeys not repeat, and normal keys repeat?Oct 19 01:03
Diablo-D3the INTERNET changed.Oct 19 01:03
cubezzzmay not be possibleOct 19 01:03
Diablo-D3websites got bigger, more complex, more demandingOct 19 01:03
cubezzzsome older customers have reduced manual dexerityOct 19 01:03
cubezzzthey make a lot of mistakesOct 19 01:04
Diablo-D3if you dont like it, too badOct 19 01:04
sebsebseband little things how the user agent is no longer shown in  about > firefox and  the thing I was on about earlier, about distros not just being able to show in it now, and that kind of thing annoys me as well quite a bit really since 4.0Oct 19 01:04
sebsebseband how it seems I can't have the sam webpage open in more than one tab as wel!Oct 19 01:04
Diablo-D3sebsebseb: everybody ignores thatOct 19 01:04
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: not everybodyOct 19 01:04
Diablo-D3like, I use iceweaselOct 19 01:04
Diablo-D3it clearly says what it isOct 19 01:04
Diablo-D3its 7.0.1Oct 19 01:04
Diablo-D3whoopdedoo.Oct 19 01:04
sebsebsebI want Firefox to say what distros people are running it on by default, like it used to, but nope it no longer does as of 4.0.Oct 19 01:05
cubezzzyou can compile icecat/firefox/iceweasel with stuff disabledOct 19 01:05
Diablo-D3sebsebseb: but heyOct 19 01:05
Diablo-D3thanks to those pages I talked about? the big bloated modern ones?Oct 19 01:05
cubezzzmight help improve the speedOct 19 01:05
Diablo-D3firefox has gotten better because of themOct 19 01:05
Diablo-D3a little memory leak here or there used to be never be noticedOct 19 01:05
Diablo-D3but now they show up easilyOct 19 01:05
Diablo-D3slow code here and there didnt, and now they doOct 19 01:05
Diablo-D3inefficiencies, screw ups, smelly codeOct 19 01:05
Diablo-D3all being grinded away between the end of 3.x and I think 9 is the last version they're grinding throughOct 19 01:06
Diablo-D3no project _has_ to support older versions when major bug fixing has been done, periodOct 19 01:06
Diablo-D3if enterprises and companies and IT departments and whatever done like it? too badOct 19 01:06
Diablo-D3go run msie or some shit thenOct 19 01:06
Diablo-D3chrome does the same shit, and they're even more hardcore about itOct 19 01:07
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: FIrefox is doing this six weeks release cycle, to compete agaisnt ChromeOct 19 01:07
sebsebsebit seemsOct 19 01:07
Diablo-D3you didnt pay for a support contract with mozilla, so they owe you _nothing_Oct 19 01:07
sebsebsebsince Chrome/Chromium is also bumping up the version numbers like anythingOct 19 01:07
Diablo-D3sebsebseb: on projects that rapidly change, maybe version numbers make no senseOct 19 01:08
cubezzzjust make the date the version numberOct 19 01:08
Diablo-D3I wouldnt mind seeing both chrome and firefox switch to yymm versionsOct 19 01:08
Diablo-D3cubezzz: bingoOct 19 01:08
sebsebsebcubezzz: yeah that could be a better idea reallyOct 19 01:08
Diablo-D3problem is chrome is at like 16 nowOct 19 01:08
sebsebsebanyway we will be on  Firefox 25 at the end of 2013 at this rate, or wahtever I read, I read some article about thatOct 19 01:08
Diablo-D3sebsebseb: 9Oct 19 01:08
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: 9 to what?Oct 19 01:09
Diablo-D3firefox 9Oct 19 01:09
Diablo-D3sometime during 2012Oct 19 01:09
cubezzzfirefox with noscript isn't too badOct 19 01:09
Diablo-D3I suspect they may just stop at 12Oct 19 01:09
cubezzzI can live with itOct 19 01:09
Diablo-D3cubezzz: noscript is too lameOct 19 01:09
Diablo-D3adblock and flashblock is enoughOct 19 01:09
*sebsebseb thinks Seamonkey will become his main brwoser probably, but not just yetOct 19 01:09
Diablo-D3most of the worst js abuses are ad serving related, and most of the cpu use is flash adsOct 19 01:09
cubezzzwell, I can whitelist certain sitesOct 19 01:10
cubezzzit's adjustableOct 19 01:10
Diablo-D3yeah, but its insane when most sites actually use js legitimatelyOct 19 01:10
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: Firefox 3.6 is no longer supported oh yeah?  I haven't done security updates for a while, but  as I thought, there is probably a Firefox update to installOct 19 01:11
cubezzzI'm at 3.6.20 on one boxOct 19 01:11

cubezzzthen it's back to roll your ownOct 19 01:33
Diablo-D3the OTHER one I was using I split in 2/3rdsOct 19 01:33

_GoblinI must admit.....its kind of becoming the norm for me now.Oct 19 01:34
sebsebsebcubezzz: not every week :D and yeah I know you were exagerating earlierOct 19 01:34
Diablo-D3I hate kde so muchOct 19 01:34
Diablo-D3I swearOct 19 01:34
sebsebseb_Goblin: in PC Linux OS?Oct 19 01:34
Diablo-D3Im just going to code my own goddamned DEOct 19 01:34
sebsebseb_Goblin: or what distro you on at the moment?Oct 19 01:34
cubezzzKDE 3.5.10 was OKOct 19 01:34
_Goblin4.6.5 is what I'm running...Ive had no issuesOct 19 01:34
sebsebsebin which distro? Sabayon?Oct 19 01:35
cubezzzat least if you write your own DE or WM you'll be happy with itOct 19 01:35
_Goblinappart from the silly convoluted way its has its settings.....but Ive already ranted...Oct 19 01:35
TechrightsBot-trNot a web page! Aborting image/jpeg typeOct 19 01:35
_Goblinno not sabayonOct 19 01:35
sebsebsebPC Linux OS?Oct 19 01:35
_Goblinsince I want Xfce and keep an eye on another distro and KDE....Ive two partitions...One sabayon one PCLinuxOSOct 19 01:36
cubezzzI'll probably go with icewm + xfce4 in the futureOct 19 01:36
cubezzzmwm was too primitive, even for meOct 19 01:36
sebsebseb_Goblin: Ok, but I thought PC Linux OS would have been using KDE 4.7 by now hmm.Oct 19 01:36
_Goblinboth are rolling releases..so I can easily keep up to date with both distro's/de'sOct 19 01:36
_GoblinnopeOct 19 01:36
_Goblinnot yetOct 19 01:36
sebsebseb_Goblin: ah yes they delay stuff like that, if they don't think it's stable enough yetOct 19 01:36
sebsebsebthey delayed KDE 4.6 a bit if I remember correctlyOct 19 01:37
sebsebseband then had to basically start over with all settingsOct 19 01:37
cubezzzis there a distro that comes with xfce as the default?Oct 19 01:37
sebsebsebwhen upgrading to itOct 19 01:37
_Goblinjust double checked....its still 4.6.5Oct 19 01:37
sebsebsebKDE settings, well for the desktp and suchOct 19 01:37
sebsebsebthink it remembered like for example Konversaiton stuffOct 19 01:37
_GoblinWolvix?Oct 19 01:37
sebsebseb_Goblin: anyway yeah Linux distros, differnet vrsions of the kernel, and the desktop envrionemnts and so onOct 19 01:38
sebsebseb,but in general]Oct 19 01:38
sebsebsebmost Desktop Linux distros are quite similar reallyOct 19 01:38
sebsebsebI guessOct 19 01:38
cubezzzah, based on slackwareOct 19 01:38
sebsebsebthat are stil being made nowOct 19 01:38
sebsebseb_Goblin: surely you can run KDE in Sabayon though?Oct 19 01:38
cubezzzsebsebseb, yes but I like to try Plan 9 and the BSDs tooOct 19 01:38
sebsebsebit's in the repos I guess?Oct 19 01:38
sebsebseb_Goblin: ,but sure PC Linux OS is one of the distros people would go to for a good KDE expereince,  same for MageiaOct 19 01:39
cubezzzPlan 9 is so different it will warp your brainOct 19 01:39
sebsebseband well maybe it's changed a bit now for Mandriva, but still known for a good KDE expereince, but now the rosa stuff in that one so hmmOct 19 01:39
_Goblinsebsebseb: I can, but like I said earlier, I want to keep an eye on another distro too...Oct 19 01:39
sebsebseb_Goblin: right, but why not run PCLOS with Gnome 2 as well for example, it's there in the repos and suchOct 19 01:39
_Goblinbecause Ive moved from Gnome 2Oct 19 01:40
sebsebsebif I am running a distro, I tend to try it all really, Gnome, KDE, and XFCE, and maybe LXDE, and suchOct 19 01:40
sebsebsebaltough for some reason it took me quite a while before I tried out LXDE in MandrivaOct 19 01:40
_GoblinIm not interested in Gnome 3 so theres nothing to keep an eye on as far as Im concerned with GnomeOct 19 01:40
sebsebsebuh XFCE I mean, aboveOct 19 01:40
sebsebseb_Goblin: yeah, but PCLOS is on Gnome 2 still as I was sayingOct 19 01:40
Diablo-D3ahhOct 19 01:41
_GoblinIve the KDE edition.Oct 19 01:41

sebsebseb_Goblin: and they are going to actsaully make it so users can have both install Gnome 2 and Gnome 3, and let them switch between, altough it seems Mint want to do something like that, by using the mate fork hmmOct 19 01:41
_Goblinsebsebseb: there would be little point in having KDE Sabayon and Xfce Sabayon if I want to not only watch two DE's but two distro's too.Oct 19 01:41
sebsebsebMint is going to say with Gnome 2.32 for now as wellOct 19 01:41
sebsebseband they are helping work on mate, andOct 19 01:41

sebsebsebDiablo-D3: cubezzz anyway _Goblin not likeing  Gnome 3, is another example, of the kind of thing we were talking about ealrier to do with FIrefox,  newer not always being better, and sometiems people prefering older softwareOct 19 01:43
sebsebsebwell ok he's moved  on from Gnome 2 to XFCE, but would prefer Gnome  2 over Gnome 3, and wellOct 19 01:43
sebsebsebXFCE is quite Gnome 2 like,  GTK and all that, some of the icons  are the same really and all thatOct 19 01:44

sebsebsebhowever really XFCE is a old project that's been around for years and yearsOct 19 01:44
sebsebseb_Goblin: yep that's what I just said, that can use Gnome icons in XFCEOct 19 01:44
_Goblinthat makes it matureOct 19 01:44
Diablo-D3xfce was the new gnome 2 before gnome 3 was even thought of, dude.Oct 19 01:44
_Goblini think Xfce is ver 4.7...released March this year.Oct 19 01:44
sebsebseb_Goblin: plus not sure how, but can some how get the Gnome 2 weather feature in XFCE and use that even.Oct 19 01:44
Diablo-D3hell, the first version of xfce predates gnome 2Oct 19 01:45

_Goblinand I can see many going the Xfce wayOct 19 01:45
cubezzzgnome wasn't firstOct 19 01:45

sebsebsebso XFCE was before Gnome?Oct 19 01:48
Diablo-D3what, seriously?Oct 19 01:48
Diablo-D3xfce just became more awesomeOct 19 01:48

sebsebsebDiablo-D3: heh I think I know why your saying thatOct 19 01:49
sebsebseband in a way maybe soOct 19 01:49
sebsebseb,but why did Gnome become much more popualr than XFCE?Oct 19 01:49
sebsebsebIf XFCE was first?Oct 19 01:49
cubezzzxfce was originally xforms common environmentOct 19 01:49
Diablo-D3because people suck.Oct 19 01:49

sebsebseband has been for the past few years reallyOct 19 01:50
Diablo-D3most popular my dickOct 19 01:50
sebsebsebwell PC Linux OS was apparnatly more popular for a while in like 2007Oct 19 01:50

sebsebsebSlackware is still olderOct 19 01:53
Diablo-D3I think you missed the pointOct 19 01:53
cubezzzyou want old? :)Oct 19 01:53
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: same year, but Slackware is still olderOct 19 01:53
Diablo-D3and slackware hasnt changed in 9000 years anyhowOct 19 01:53

cubezzzright :)Oct 19 01:54
Diablo-D3it wasnt even really a distroOct 19 01:54
cubezzzand there might have been a couple before that evenOct 19 01:55
Diablo-D3it was just a pile of binariesOct 19 01:55
sebsebsebcubezzz: Yggdrasil yeah read about that one a bit before, but well that died, so Slackware is the  oldest distro that is still maintained todayOct 19 01:55
sebsebsebalso didn't know Yggdrasil was before SlackwareOct 19 01:55
Diablo-D3slackware and debian were both started to fill the gap left by yggdrasilOct 19 01:55
cubezzzDec 1992Oct 19 01:55
cubezzzI have a timeline going back to 1974Oct 19 01:55
Diablo-D3only 74?Oct 19 01:55
sebsebsebuh, but the Linux kernel didn't get open sourced untill 1993 I thought?Oct 19 01:55
Diablo-D3sebsebseb: wrong choice of wordsOct 19 01:56
Diablo-D3it didnt exist until 92.Oct 19 01:56
Diablo-D3it was always open sourceOct 19 01:56
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: no apparnatly the Linux kernel started off as  cloused source even, but hten Linus released it under the GPLOct 19 01:56
sebsebseblater onOct 19 01:56
Diablo-D3sebsebseb: depends how you define closed sourceOct 19 01:56
cubezzzI've even run Unix v5 on a emulatorOct 19 01:56
Diablo-D3linus merely didnt chose a license yetOct 19 01:56
sebsebsebalso apparnatly to begin with for Desktp Linux, most of the  apps were closed source, but then loads of open source altenraives came alongOct 19 01:56
cubezzzthat's the oldest I've tried Oct 19 01:56
sebsebsebso yeah Netscape and that kind of thing for the closed stuffOct 19 01:56
Diablo-D3what desktop linuxOct 19 01:57
cubezzzwhat wm did yggdrasil use?Oct 19 01:57
Diablo-D3just because you had X doesnt mean you had a desktopOct 19 01:57
Diablo-D3cubezzz: noneOct 19 01:57
Diablo-D3it didnt even have X iircOct 19 01:57
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: that's not what Desktop Linux meansOct 19 01:57
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: it means something you can run on a PC or lap top basicalelyOct 19 01:57
cubezzzDiablo-D3, nah it had XOct 19 01:57
sebsebseband that isn't a server OSOct 19 01:57

Diablo-D3linux is linux is linuxOct 19 01:57
Diablo-D3no matter what I run it on, or what I run it forOct 19 01:58
sebsebsebDiablo-D3: Ubuntu, Mandriva, Mageia, Mint, PC Linux OS, Sabayon, etc etc,   are Desktop Linux distro's, but take Ubuntu for example that can be a server OS as well,  Ubuntu Server EditonOct 19 01:58
Diablo-D3ubuntu is a desktop distroOct 19 01:58

DaemonFCsome really bad shit has wound up on Firefox's add-on siteOct 19 12:08
MinceRah, walled garden, how niceOct 19 12:08
DaemonFCand there have been instances of extensions attacking each otherOct 19 12:08
DaemonFClike noscript v. adblock plusOct 19 12:08
DaemonFCMozilla doesn't do anything to make sure extensions aren't maliciousOct 19 12:08
MinceRi'm running both and somehow the house still hasn't burned downOct 19 12:08
DaemonFCby anything I mean, next to nothingOct 19 12:08
DaemonFCwell, I'm only saying that Mozilla add-ons isn't trustworthy just because an extension is hosted thereOct 19 12:09
DaemonFCand a Firefox extension becomes part of Firefox and able to manipulate anything it likesOct 19 12:09
DaemonFCsometimes that is goodOct 19 12:09
DaemonFCsometimes it is badOct 19 12:09
DaemonFCit is a powerful cross platform application framework, and by applications, that can include malicious softwareOct 19 12:10
DaemonFCspyware, extensions attacking othersOct 19 12:10
DaemonFCmodifying the browser with spamlinks to replace text on any webpageOct 19 12:10
DaemonFClike some have done, which apparently does not go against Mozilla policyOct 19 12:10
DaemonFChaving a powerful extension system is only good as long as you only install good extensionsOct 19 12:11
DaemonFCand that brings me to the next pointOct 19 12:11
DaemonFCmost extensions for Firefox are not free and open sourceOct 19 12:11
DaemonFCin fact, a lot of them don't even list a licenseOct 19 12:11
DaemonFCMozilla's add-on policy leaves much to be desiredOct 19 12:12
DaemonFCfrankly I think they do their users a disservice by making them believe an add-on from that site can be trusted to do what it says it willOct 19 12:12
MinceRwell, if being able to install bad extensions/applications is bad, let me point you to iOSOct 19 12:12
MinceRit has what you wantOct 19 12:12
MinceRi'll stick with my general-purpose computingOct 19 12:12
DaemonFCyou don't need Opera's blessing to install an add-onOct 19 12:13
DaemonFCyou only need it to host your add-on on their add-on siteOct 19 12:13
DaemonFCso you know nothing there is maliciousOct 19 12:13
MinceRand i don't think that mozilla makes a user believe an add-on is trustable when it pops up a window telling you to install only extensions you trust and not even letting you proceed before a few seconds have passedOct 19 12:13
DaemonFCI happen to agree with Opera hereOct 19 12:13
DaemonFCthere's nothing nefarious going onOct 19 12:14
MinceRbtw, there is a place where known good extensions are hosted, it's called a package repositoryOct 19 12:14
DaemonFCthey're weeding out malware and things that can interfere with the user's ability to use the browserOct 19 12:14
DaemonFCright, so why don't you complain about those?Oct 19 12:14
DaemonFCafter all, someone has to approve a package before it goes into a Linux distributionOct 19 12:15

XFaCEschestowitz: So let's see.  Windows 8 is a refined version of Windows 7.Oct 19 22:22
XFaCEschestowitz: With that line of reasoning, each Windows version has less meaningful change than the last.Oct 19 22:22
XFaCEAfter all, 7 was just a refined Vista, which was heavily retooled XPOct 19 22:23
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[satipera/@satipera] The number does not mean much. Linux 3?Oct 19 22:23
XFaCESo let's say the meaningful changes from each major version are equal to 1.Oct 19 22:23
MinceR"refined" is quite the overstatement :>Oct 19 22:23
XFaCEschestowitz: Since Windows 7 was just a "refining" (quickie dressing job), then it's "change value" will be 0.5Oct 19 22:24
XFaCESince 8 is just a retooled 7, it's change value will be 0.5*0.5=0.25Oct 19 22:24
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[satipera/@satipera] Granted with MS it means even less.Oct 19 22:24
XFaCEYeah, the numbers and change amount assigning is completely arbitrarty, just thought it would be funny to point out (schestowitz, MinceR)Oct 19 22:25
schestowitzIt's not arbitraryOct 19 22:25
schestowitzIt's a marketing decisionOct 19 22:25
