Mozilla and Co. have been providing a nice and free and open web surfing tool since a while now.. blah blah bla blah. .. ... . I am looking for another free (as in freedom of speech) web browser with some of the same features without all the crap they have been putting in there... Let me explain just one part of the problem..

Today I tried to connect to something like http://server:22 and to my biggest surprise I was told "Port Restricted for Security Reasons". I figure "wow, that's almost nice, now where is the "Thanks for the warning but I know what I'm doing" button.. . and then i realize what had happened. .

I and many others it seems, have become so dependent on this "ONE and ONLY" (usable) web browser that now they can do things like that without risking vriots.. . I'm sure there are many other "features" that have become problems for various users with different requirements and different usages etc etc.. . Apart from going into the "about:config" menu it's impossible to go around that.. . It seems to me that Firefox is becoming a thin corridor with thick walls (and so many features and plugins to hang up on those walls).. .

if you know of a good fork or a usable alternative browser tell me about it...

Maybe if things where really like this i'd become a jesus worshipper

My real problem is that there are more of these

The economy is so bad that people can not afford a bike, many still attach their locks, as if it where a ritual to remember the good old days

Naked what ?

I finally got to a point where i'm not to ashamed to actually publish this project I've been working on for a little while now.. It's a set of scripts to automate installation of a typical Debian server.

and the thing is they use modified shopping carts specially designed so that you know it's not your shopping cart...

Building an ecosystem around a shopping car is an interesting concept.. . : ]

Two little tutorials which, now that i think of it, have something to do with one another.. . :]
One on smartmontools which can help you know more about a disk drive's health status. ... in the eventuality of a required disk replacement you can check out these notes on replacing a disk

in japan everything is clean,
in japan people don't really speak english nor french,
in japan cars don't make much noise,
in japan toilets are so high tech you need a diploma to take a proper crap,
in japan trains are so on time that you can use TTP (train time protocol) to synchronize your system.

so yah, i visited japan recently and yah, many people have said their thoughts and stuff already.. . well i won't do too much of that except to my IRL friends who will not hear the end of it.. unlucky them. .

so that's all i'm going to say for now, if any questions you want to ask, do so, else goto photos.
