Asa,
I know this is off the topic, but what's the deal with Moz refusing to let localizations for 1.05 be released?? Who cares if they have to update to 1.06 in a couple of days like the en users? Moz shouldn't kid themselves that they are saving those users from the trouble of updating twice and having a broken API... It's obvious they prefer security from published vulnerabilities over these trivialities.

all i've got to say is "of course!"

Sounds like Mr. Lessig is decidedly anti big corporations, anti closed source, anti IP, etc. So its no surprise he uses Firefox, although I love to hear the news when anybody is using Firefox. :)

Minh instead of wasting energy onvincing othe people your brain stopped evolving afte you hit the age of 7 you should probably spend some energy tying to loose yout virginity? Seriously people like you make me sick. It's so sad Firefox users get a bad name because of you..

FairyFoxR0xx0r: As much as I agree with you on what you said, saying things like that make you look childish, not Asa. There's really no point in trying to go at Asa on this post, he didn't say anything that could be disagreed with, even by me, an Opera user.

As for you, Asa, all I can say is this:

So what if that guy uses Firefox? So what if he wants to use a browser that, even though it is an exceptional alternative to IE, still has security flaws all over the place? So what if he wants to update his extensions every other time a new version comes out? So what if he installs an extensions, messes everything up, and has to go into the config and remove the extension manually (which I have had to do many times myself)? Whoop dee do. Is it really everyone's business?

I meant "extension" not "extensions" when I said "...So what if he installs an extensions..."
