Terri Schindler was Viciously Murdered; Legally
Submitted by HopeSeekr of xMule on Thu, 2005-03-31 16:12.She's dead. God Bless Amerika! That Terri Schiavo was legally murdered proves we live under Judicial tyranny.
I've read the Bible through and through, and while there is some very disgusting/vile stuff (like women eating their children during a seige) there's nothing quite that compares to the starvation of a mentally handicapped woman by the biggest power to ever have inhabitted the Earth -- that we know of.
The main cause of death for those crucified was dehydration. Even the 1st Century Romans -- as hedonistic/heathen as they were -- knew this was a very barbaric way to go, so for relatively-benign criminals, such as Jesus of Nazareth, they would pierce their chests after a few hours, in order to cause fairly-rapid death-by-drowning as the lungs filled with fluid.
Coolest FireFox-only Page Ever!!
Submitted by HopeSeekr of xMule on Tue, 2005-03-29 22:52.This is some *l337* stuff! OMFG!!
Can you imagine how much more you could use this in things like MMORPGs?!
Please note: I had a fairly difficult time trying to figure out what the freck this site was all about! I literally had to carefully analyze the source code before I realized that the trick is to use the scrollbars...
How Pimpzilla Saved the Day!
Submitted by HopeSeekr of xMule on Thu, 2005-03-17 18:12.Among my variegated responsibilities at work, I am in charge of maintaining a productive network environment. At the top of the corporation's priorities is a clean, uncompromised desktop for all employees, which is made excruciatingly difficult to maintain due to widespread usage of AOL, Internet Explorer, and a host of insecure browsing habits.
I was given the go-ahead for migrating to FireFox. It was initially heralded as the best thing since Adware; far and wide you could hear the "Ooos" and "ahhhs" especially in reference to how fast FF rendered corporate sites. The first week of zero malware on the 50-odd workstations was cause for a company-wide paid lunch by the boss.

FireFox 1.0.2 Rocks All
Submitted by HopeSeekr of xMule on Thu, 2005-03-17 02:09.For those who do not know, I am a FireFox Power User (TM). At work I have over 20 extensions installed, generally as part of a web development system. I also have massive memory woes :-/ At work I must close FireFox at least every 3 hours since it uses upwards of 300MB of RAM with 30 tabs open. At home, with an uptime measured in months, FireFox *averages* 600 MB of memory; necessitating the purchase of another 1 GB DIMM :-/ See comment #41 [spreadthefox.net] for the gory details.
I've been using daily builds for about the last 2 months. I upgrade every time the changelog seems to have more fixes than new bugs...basicaly once a week. I was insanely interested in the patches after 2/28 that *supposedly* fixed the tab memory leak, as this is the bane of my FF experience. However I never realized any improvements, and subsequently, the guy revoked his patch as it didn't fix and indeed broke a great many more things.
Totally Private Email
Submitted by HopeSeekr of xMule on Sun, 2005-03-13 00:58.Very few people realize how utterly public the standard email message is, especially non-web-based email. If you use a program like Outlook, every time you check your mail you send your username and password -- unencrypted -- over the Internet.
In an age of rampant crime, crumbling empires, and increasing fascism, it is essential that close-knit groups form trust+privacy circles by adopting scientifically validated encryption rings as a stopgap to wanton attacks on both one's privacy and due process.
