Sad thing is, Photoshop used to install a filter for windows explorer to create thumbnail images of PSDs (i believe around the PS7 era) but it was removed due to stability problems if i remember right

But then they never fixed the filter... they just left it out.

Maybe your breathing is distracting... i mean, you can't hear yourself since you have headphones on... so you can't really concentrate on proper breathing (yes there is a certain way you breathe especially while lifting)

Maybe the guy was trying to tell you that but it just came out wrong?

Dragon Age?

A 14-year-old boy who allegedly was sexually molested by a female guidance counselor can't sue his school even if it was negligent in hiring and supervising her, a California appeals court has ruled. by secaa23in MensRights

What a misleading title...

from reading the title i'm under the assumption the kid was molested on school property by a school employee and for some reason the school can't be sued. That within itself makes no sense...

Until near the end of the article the judge's statement happens to mention this took place somewhere else, not school property, not even on a school day! Why should the school be responsible for everyone's action's... ALL the time, whether employees are on the clock or not?

While you are correct in that they use webkit now, that was as of the last major redesign which was only a couple of months ago... otherwise, for the years Steam was around it used IE.

I previous versions of Windows including Vista it did simply hide Internet Explorer however in Windows 7 it will uninstall the executable... it's not hidden. However the libraries for the rendering engine remain because applications (both apart of the OS and 3rd party) still rely on it. Steam for example uses IE's rendering engine... simply because it's guaranteed to be on every install of windows (same for applications in OSX using webkit)

If MS were to remove ALL libraries related to Internet Explorer it would severely impact 3rd party software in addition to their own, just as it would severely impact applications in OSX if Apple were to completely pull webkit.

http://winjade.net/2009/03/ie8-functionally-removable/

Like i said, MANY application (the vast majority being 3rd party) rely on IE so Microsoft can't simply just remove it without breaking a massive amount of 3rd party applications.

IE9 and Windows 7 (you can uninstall IE in windows 7) basically touches all of those points,

and why are we still pretending that there are ANY browsers that are fully compliant with existing and draft standards? (passing ACID tests isn't proof of full compliance)

My daily browser has been Chrome for quite some time an I've found IE9 to be a very solid browser, and quite snappy. If they had a better collection of add-ons i'd probably use it more often

Any good mp3 player that can be used like a USB key? by crossbrowserin gadgets

You could use the ipod classic with Rockbox otherwise... i THINK the Creative Zen players support what you're asking, or maybe the Archos players... although i think both companies only make flash based MP3 players now, maxing out at about 64Gb and costing way too much... whereas the Classic is 160Gb

No experience with the Zune, which is the only other player that i know of to use HDD's.
