Re: Religious?
So what happened to compassion and "love thy neighbour"
Yes it is fun to fling things like this at Christian extremists.
Yes that is what they are, extreme views equals extremists.

Two words, Mozilla: SPEED! NOW! Quit fiddling and get serious

Re: You await some decision?
I don't care if people oppose it, but I do think they are a bit silly when they obsess so much over it they spend a lot of their own money to try to get something legal which harms nobody overturned.
People who obsess like that are often deranged.
I settle for thinking it is a bit icky, not something I would want to do, but why should I stop someone else doing it?
They are not harming me, they are not hurting my marriage*, why bother trying to overturn it?
* over 20 years as well!

Firefox install can be a nightmare
That horrible period between installing it and making it look like Firefox should.
I hate bare boned GUIs, mobile GUIs on desktops, I am used to a simple file edit style gui and want to keep it.
So when I had to reinstall Firefox (HDD hammering) that horrible period between installing FF and enabling Classic Theme Restorer is like a punishment.
If CTR gets stopped I will go Pale Moon for main browser.

Who's behind the Kodi TV streaming stick crackdown?

Sport
To be honest it is much cheaper to give up watching and do something else when a sport goes pay TV.
To watch F1 live a few years ago, included in my licence, now could be around £1000. (not sure on fees).
So I just gave up, ony took a couple of races to totally lose interest, the cars getting more boring helped.

You need to ask why people do it?
As usual it is punish and not learn.
As usual the major reasons are ease of access, and value for money.
People normally go for the easiest route as long as they are not being ripped off.
Of course there are people who would obtain to avoid giving Murdoch money, that is perfectly understandable. But most people will pay for content if it is easy and good value.
I do not consider a restricted satellite receiver with limited channel selections forcing users to pay more than they would like to watch what they would like easy nor good value.
Streetmap loses appeal against Google Maps dominance judgement
Wednesday 8th February 2017 13:46 GMT
Just tested aerial views
Home
Google shows my last car, pre write off, so over 3 years ago
Live shows not at home
Work
Not detailed enough to tell and goes streetview at the wrong time, no zoom option any more
Live shows not at work
Live uses same aerial views as zoom.earth!!!!!
Any more I can play with?
Tuesday 7th February 2017 13:03 GMT
Tool for the job
Google can do a route on a URL, but its street maps are difficult to read (grey on grey)
maps.live.com have OS overlays, but search broken.
Streetmap can do OS references but positioning is slightly out
Anyway I have reported the broken search on maps.live.com, Google requires signing in.
No mapping site is that good, and all have some serious flaws.

Re: Trumpity Trump
To be honest pollution, wasting fossil fuels, and wasteful energy usage bother me more than CO2 levels. (Smog in particular is scary).
But clean energy is an essential, and we need it sooner than later.
Invest in research, thorium bed, fusion, wave power, energy storage.
Now why am I not so bothered by CO2?
1, Methane is worse. 2, saving energy means less CO2. 3, non fossil fuel means less CO2
So win win.
