Rather than having a separate window open for every page you're looking at you can have them all in one and switch between them by clicking tabs at the top of the window. Very good stuff.

Oh yeah, it does. But I still think the coolest mobster of all time is Lucky Luciano.

My brother actually looks like a mix of Capone and Edward G. Robinson.

Opera > all :)

Mouse gestures make it so you never have to hit the forward or backward page buttons any more. Better security against spyware, and blocks pop ups and has tabbed windows.

I don't know how to use tabbed browsing yet. I mean, I've done it before, but it was like magic. I have no clue how it happened.

I'm well aware that it's a simple process.

The only way I can use the tabs is by right clicking on a link, and selecting open in new tab, as opposed to open in new window.

Kingofdudes 10-02-2005 09:19 PM

ctrl + click = new tab

or press the folder sign when the tab bar is up

That'd be pretty cool actually.

The Army, while not all that cool at times, does have party pirks. If this year's Halloween party is anything like last year's, it will be a blast. Open up all the doors on the third floor, massive "punch" bowl in the middle of the hall, jello shots, fog machine, everyone in stupid costumes, and lots of drunk buddies to take advantage of in poker.

Cain 10-02-2005 10:24 PM

Sup guys. I just saw "Jakob the Liar." It was pretty bad and impossible to believe or take seriously for the first hour and a half, but the last half hour was great. All in all, a good movie, but generally speaking a highly inferior film considering the weight of its subject.

I mean, all the Germans are buffoonish, ugly, and obviously cartoonish villians instead of the evil remorseless supermen they should be to be effective. And I'm supposed to believe that starving Jews trapped in an overcrowded ghetto have flashlights and batteries handy for roaming the ghetto at night, especially when the Germans have a curfew implemented? That an obsessively anti-Semitic SS colonel would call on and practically dote on a Jewish cardiologist to help him with his heart palpatitions? That a German guard would allow a Jew to laugh in his face and not shoot him, instead saying in a poorly laughable German accent "Vwot arr you laffing aat?" That the whole movie is centered around no less than thirty Jews at one time constantly crowding Jakob for news on the war from his "radio," and yet somehow it's too big of a secret for the SS' Jewish informers to know who owns the radio when they get tipped off to its existance? That there would be so much space in apartments reputed for squalorous living conditions and crammed with 12 people at once? That Jakob would be able to cook with mushrooms when the desperation for food is referred to in other scenes?

Ugh. Suspension of disbelief can only go so far. "The Pianist" was much better.

/ends rant and asks how everyone else's evenings are going.

Illmatic 10-02-2005 10:34 PM

Luke, I think the biggest problem here is that you're analyzing a feel-good Robin Williams movie.

You have to keep in mind that until he inexplicably started playing villains, every drama starring him had to be feel-good. He, between 1982 ([i]The World According to Garp[/i]) and probably 1999 ([i]Jakob the Liar[/i]), played the same character in every drama he starred in (his "Garp" character); sometimes it worked ([i]Good Will Hunting[/i], [i]Good Morning, Vietnam[/i]) amd sometimes it did not ([i]Patch Adams[/i]).

/my two cents

Jom 10-02-2005 10:44 PM

Can't forget [i]Mrs. Doubtfire[/i], either.

Duuuuuuuuuude looks like a lay-day!

/air guitar

Illmatic 10-02-2005 10:50 PM

Mrs. Doubtfire was a comedy, not a drama; for comedies, Robin Williams generally took his standup comedy persona (off-the-wall, talking a mile a minute, seems like he's on cocaine or speed) and adapted it for his role.

/knows more about Robin Williams than any well-adjusted person should.

/my two cents[/QUOTE]

Heh, you're right. It's kind of a pain to know about the actual conditions of the time period when watching a movie that has placed such considerations into secondary roles. Still, feel-good movies about the Holocaust exist: Schindler's List, for all its graphic imagery, is basically one. I feel like if you're gonna do a historical drama about a subject as weighty as that, you don't trivialize it by molding and contriving a historic condition to fit around a more-or-less cheaply-constructed dramatic premise: instead you make the history serve your drama. It's not like there's any more drama to be had by downplaying the natural drama that would exist in a ruthless system like the Holocaust.

Meh. I think you're right though. That's just my take on it.

Bah! The bloody last.fm radio keeps logging me out of Audioscrobbler. Add that to the fact the tags are so inaccurate that Black Metal radio gives 1 BM song for every 20 pop-punk/modern rock/dance song, it's enough to make you cry.

Bartender 10-03-2005 04:45 AM

I think Robin Williams does villains (or 'bad' characters, at least) rather well.

[I]One Hour Photo [/I] was rather creepy, when I think about it. But then again, his character in [I]Death to Smoochy[/I] was pretty off-the-wall as well. Both were good movies.
