DISQUS

I'm looking for an article that shows in my reader but not here.

I'm guessing you retracted it because you were so horribly, horribly wrong. I'm curious about why there's no published retraction though.

It's bad enough that you seem to be writing a good 2/3 of your posts solely for shock/digg/traffic value, but now you're going to silently delete stuff as well?

You're such a linkwhore lately :)

There's a bunch of firefox extensions you can use to enforce this as well - everything from greasemonkey scripts to full blown extensions.

The downside, of course, is that the HTTPS connections take more resources on both ends, require more CPU time to process, generate more network traffic, etc.

Also, if you're going to access gmail via SMTP or POP3, SSL is enforced...

Wait, this was you???

Bwahahahahahahaha... I thought you were quoting some random from Teh Intarwebs... I just assumed you wouldn't do this yourself :)

Perhaps there's context that you didn't provide, but I can think of several ways to have admin access to a box without knowing that the admin password is blank.

Oh and, about what Arik said? Keep spewing undigested ideas at me, please. I like getting an insight into what people think. You can always give a follow-up post later if you change your mind/get new information/gain new insights :)

So umm... there's also the angle that the Euro is now seen, even by your "allies", as being a more valuable, more stable, more powerful currency than your own dollar. Shouldn't you be mored worried about fixing your broken currency? Getting upset over the objective assesments of your nations health would be like complaining about the "insult" when your doctor tells you you have syphilis.

del.icio.us for linkblogging - feedburner has a thingy that fakes a blog post every day with my latest links and sticks it in my feed. I'd rather have a script that pulled them into drupal and made a real blog post, but I've never found one for drupal (and del.icio.us's "thingies" don't work -iirc, because they're using an inccorect format for one of the fields)...

gBookmarks for my own bookmarks: there's a whole bunch of extensions to keep them in ynch with browser bookmarks (although I'm not using any of them lately)

Scott Adams is the worlds biggest, and most successful, troll. The people who get all worked up and spend inordinate amounts of time writing reasoned responses to jokes he takes half an hour to write (which completely contradict the joke he made the week before) are what makes him amusing.

Thanks :)

It's not new. It even had a movie made about it in 2000 - look for "Boiler Room" on IMDB.

your right hand nav displays over the oversized text entry field in Firefox too.
