Opera sucks sure there's an ebuild for opera but it just get dropped to /opt, it's statically linked, and it's CLOSED SOURCE, which means that it is a BINARY package.

opera fukken rules, firecocks just copied it, and personally i don't care about it being closed source, it might be security by obscurity but it's still security
i see firecocks at uni, on all the computers, it updates often, prolly bugs, security vulns, my opera almost never updates and i almost never have to worry about a vuln
SURE I MIGHT BE SHORT SIGHTED, ANYTHING WIDELY USED SUFFERS FROM ATTACKS, but for the moment, i'm happy using opera and that's as good of an argument as any to use it
though my first reason for the switch was that firecocks couldn't run well on my crappy laptop with bsd, gtk was slow, it looked crappy, i'm not even kidding here, i mean i've used firecocks since it was called phoenix, and before that mozilla, but now that i've used opera for a few years and i go back to firecocks, it feels like i'm back on modem, all the fonts look ugli, the gui is still slow as hell
also for longer periods of use firecocks just crashes on me, opera never, EVER crashes, and if it does, it just resumes where it left of, and yes opera had that feature long before firecocks
i used to be a firecocks advocate but now i'm all about opera baby, i'm the first to admit that if you want many plugins, you better go with firecocks, but i don't miss anything in opera, it has the adblocking, it has the javascript and error consoles, it has the download manager, most of the more widely used plugins in firecocks are features opera has builtin, usually stuff it had BEFORE firecocks
also i love that i can remove the tabbar, it takes some practice but you can use the keyboard for everything and all i have showing is the urlbar and the standard filemenu, i still use tabs, as easy as anyone else, but i don't need the tabbar in opera, i can even remove the urlbar with ctrl+f8
also like i mentioned before i was surprised at how everything looked much better in opera, fonts mainly
i'm about to get a macbook now though, so i'll finally have something to replace my crappy old bsd laptop, i'll give opera a shot on the mac but i've heard it has problems and i don't mind having to learn safari, it sounds like it's a worthy replacement for opera

>>23 A question mark is not used when asking someone to do something or to make requests. As quoted from the book "Punctuation Pointers" by Maxwell Nurnberg, "We do not use the question mark when we are merely making a request or when we expect no answer."
* Examples of requests in question form: o Would you please send us a duplicate copy of that invoice. o May we have the pleasure of hearing from you soon. o Will you please read the transcript back to me. o Can I please look at that book.
I feel like I'm being trolled.

Opera is very poor at properly rendering pages according to CSS2 standards, I do not recommend it.

I remembered all the W3C standards. I just use netcat to download a page and visualize it in my head.

It makes sense, really. If you don't want an answer then it's not a question in the interrogative sense, the use of the question mark, then, is probably incorrect. Requests like that are the English speaker's way of being polite/sincere because we lack attitudinal indicators. Learn Lojban.

Because he is such an idiot or because Lojban is for people who like logic in their language?

As much as I love Opera it loads INCREDIBLY SLOW on 4chan and on sites like youtube the video starts playing before the page is even fully loaded.
