Firefox owns

Postby Naethyn » Mon Nov 13, 2006 3:13 pm

Because every single time Mindia changes her sig I get the privilege of right clicking the jpeg and selecting "Block Images from rightwing_desecrating_christian_site01"

I love firefox.

By the way. What the fuck did they do to the new release of firefox. Now the tabs have individual x boxes. Thats shit! It was so much better to just click one X on the right hand side..

But firefox still owns because it blocks rightwing_desecrating_christian_site01

Oh well

There is a way to get the old X back, go out and look at the support forums. I personally hated the little X and am happy to see it go but that's just me. :)

I forgot about adblock, it owns for true

I haven't setup foxmarks yet (waiting on new laptop) (it's also kinda funny that it needs an addon since netscape and IE have been able to do this functionality for like 10 years)

the sidebar i don't care for at all

Netscape and IE have been able to share your bookmarks on two different machines? I use it to keep my work bookmarks and home the same. How would you do this with IE?

it's just a file (bookmarks.html)

you just go into the browser and point it to 1 location that all machines have access to

Yeah that's not exactly what foxmarks does. :)

It will sync up your existing bookmarks with a single location (http or ftp). So while I'm at work and not connected to my home network, foxmarks will go out to my ftp site and check to see if my bookmarks have been modified, then it'll merge in the changes to my bookmarks at work and vice versa. It's pretty fast too.

So while what you're suggesting would work while at home, it won't work while on the go. ;)

I liked the x in the corner vs each tab because I've trained myself to click that spot when I want to close a tab. Now I have to recognize what tab I have open. Aim for this little shit circle and close the window. Plus its much easier to close multiple tabs if the box is stationary.

Btw Mindia, what I was trying to say is you sigs are gay and I'm just so thankful that firefox lets me block them so easily.

My sigs are never gay, but if that's what you think, then I'm glad you can block them.

Anyone else have a problem that periodically (never the same amount of time, could be 2 days, could be 2 months) firefox will clear all your bookmarks and quick link tabs on the top?

I don't think they're cool or gay. They're just pictures.

There was a bug awhile ago that did that....have you upgraded or checked for patches?

no, it's pretty much exactly the same thing

except the foxmarks forces you to store your bookmarks on a public ftp server

Nope, I have mine on my private FTP server. :) You can use their service and upload to their server or you can choose one of your own. I use mine on my personal domain. It works great. :)

Like I said, it's exactly the same as what IE and netscape had 10 years ago
