beef it up how exactly? it already has the ability to save username/passwords for every website your a member of, although I would like it if it would read captcha images for those websites that obsess over verification on login...

**edit**

Dunno if its useful to anybody, but just found out that 'https://online.roboform.com/bookmarklet' is compatible with Opera

My original argument was not that Americans spell things wrongly, but, rather to rant that I would like for both variations of the English language to be recognized by all coding facilities.

I know that but the discussion devolved into one of who is spells it right and who spells it wrong.

I won't spend the whole day on it, but its certainly handy in regards to saving money when organizing night's out (rather than calling/texting everybody) ... honestly, since social networking came around, my phone bills have halved haha

Yep, so the Americans with their bubblegum accent should go back to British English. No-one forced them to split.

tbh, i couldn't care less how they pronounce the word, or what their accent sounds like, as long as the spelling is correct!

Fx: http://www.google.co...e=utf-8&oe=utf-8
Firefox is nowhere to be found...

http://www.google.co...e=utf-8&oe=utf-8
Firefox shows up third...


You cannot tell me, that because <100 people use the term Fx, it is correct?

Fx should be pre-fixed with 'Special' or 'Sound' - this is the most known term for FX

haha, but at the end of the day, you was correct, the American language should be exactly the same as the British one...I understand that accents would change the pronunciation of some words, but this does not require a total disregard of letters in certain words (Aluminium)!

The web browser is named after the animal, so why is it FF for "Fire Fox", but not for the Red Panda?

Yes, these people are wrong. There is no second "B" in Blackberry.

-Tuxman (February 03, 2010, 01:41 PM)

What you just said made absolutely zero sense..."But not for red panda" because the browser is called Firefox, not Red Panda, if it was called Red Panda, it would be RP and we wouldn't be having this conversation.

"There is no second B in blackberry" Agreed, but Black and Berry are 2 separate words, made into one word for this fruit.  so the acronym is BB.  Although the most known usage for BB is Ball Bearing it is still widely used between the Blackberry community.

A "Donationcoder" (which would be Dr, not DR, of course!) is not an existing thing. A Firefox is.

-Tuxman (February 03, 2010, 01:33 PM)

So you are telling me, I am not, indeed, using a web-browser, but instead, typing into a Red Panda?...It is still separated into 2 words, because a website browser is NOT a living entity.

Yes, I agree, that this software has been named after an animal (which name is one singular word') but you cannot tell me, with all honesty that this makes you 100% correct?

Its along the same lines as a Blackberry phone, nobody uses the acronym, BY, but instead BB...are all these people wrong to?

I understand that some people use "FF" for "Fire Fox", but I don't actually understand why they call Firefox "Fire Fox". "Firefox" are not two words[/url].

-Tuxman (February 03, 2010, 12:14 PM)

You seem to be missing the fact, that even though, Firefox, is indeed ONE word, it is only so, in its own right, most people separate it into the 2 known English words, "Fire and Fox, hence the second F (Fox begins with an F)

Fire: open fire: start firing a weapon
Fox: alert carnivorous mammal with pointed muzzle and ears and a bushy tail; most are predators that do not hunt in packs

Basically, what you are saying, is The correct term for this website, would not, in-fact, be DC, but instead, DR, where-as we all know that Donation Coder is not 1 word, it is in-fact two separate words taken from the English Language.

Donation: contribution: a voluntary gift (as of money or service or ideas) made to some worthwhile cause
Coder:  programmer: a person who designs and writes and tests computer programs

-Tuxman (February 03, 2010, 01:00 AM)

Fx is actually the least used acronym for Firefox as most people shorten them to the first letter of each word, now even though Firefox is, in its own right, a singular word, it is separated by the 2 known words, Fire and Fox, hence the more used term FF.

Either is good for me though, I recognize either

i've reflected on how upsetting this could be to those whose families were affected by this man and this regime.. i'm sure there are a variety of views -- some might enjoy the mockery of the man, but i can also see some people being deeply hurt at the idea of people having fun watching this mass murderer...

anyway, maybe it's just not the best subject for making a donationcoder video..

-mouser (February 03, 2010, 12:07 AM)

Couldn't agree more, I am sure there are much more appropriate topics to base a DC video on.  Perhaps something that wouldn't possibly create major controversy?

Some ideas might be:

Dubbed Short Chinese Movie
Dubbed News Interview
Dubbed TV Advertisement (Perhaps one based around computing {IE: Windows vs Apple Ads})

Maybe those would be more a appropriate basis for it.

Also, Nigel, I mis-understood what Josh was requesting and after speaking with him I now understand that my old way of writing reviews is not comprehensive enough for DC.

Since taking on this constructive criticism I have found I can write a much more in-depth review which will be more appropriate and informative to the end user

« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on February 02, 2010, 03:23 PM »

Im pretty sure there is software along the same lines as Karaoke Synchronization Software, where you basically have the entire script/list of words you need in a section running under the video and you use your spacebar to sync the words to the screen, you can also do it line by line rather than word by word, for when you can't be bothered showing which word is being sung at any particular moment.  Unsure wether you can save the files as AVI as I always save these as CD+G but I shouldn't see why it wouldnt work

Does this software also cache the document you was working on (IE, auto re-load the last notepad document I had open, including all the text?) if so, I can stop having to fart around in msconfig for the software re-launches and having to save a file to my desktop to tell me what I had open before reboot.
