General Software Discussion / Re: Firefox Extension "Download Statusbar" Now Adware - Maybe Malware

« on: October 29, 2011, 09:44 AM »

"Open downloads in a new tab" is alright too. I just don't like window overload.

DTA is a download manager, DSB is not, so it is not an "alternative", right?

So is there a valid extension that does similar things around?

Should Google not rate itself worse now because of duplicate content?

Living Room / Re: Wow: Google insider explains why Big G may lose the Internet wars

G+ is not a replacement for your own blog. Sure, you can easily reach a lot of people there immediately, but you will also most likely drain out in the noise of all these "bloggers".

Depends on what you want to achieve. If you need Exchange, it could be rather difficult to find a decent alternative.

Google needs to calm down a bit. All these experiments. G+ is their third try (at least!) to do something "social".

Chrome is successful; so successful that Mozilla tries to copy its look&feel. But no innovations are added. Everything has been there before.
Same goes for Google Mail: It is not enough to take Hotmail and add some "you have $rand() GB space!" hint. Oh, wait: It is.

Google Music? "Hey, spotify/simfy/grooveshark have customers. Let's pretend we are better!"

Google is the Apple of the 201x decade. Old, grown ideas packed into aggressive marketing. Bleh.
Even Google Search sucks in terms of quality. Quantity is not everything.

Time to learn that, Google.

I probably could give it a run, too. Latest version I tried was 2008, notably faster and smoother than OpenOffice.

But I sometimes need to handle Office XML files, so I'm not sure if it is worth it. Let's see...

How are its OpenDocument filters?

Least Outlook users need "all its features". Most live fine with Thunderbird/Lightning/Enigmail ..

I, as always, installed tefe009's SSE2 build. Restarting worked fast as hell on my 3 years old main machine. Seriously, they made a great job here.

Also, Acid3 is 100/100 points now.

But seriously, who cares?

It all depends on the actual website, I presume. The more Javascript is used, the better Firefox performs than Chrome. (And these days, almost everything is Javascript. Dumbass web "designers".)
