“Is English a second language for most Mozilla employees?”

He wasn’t hired for his mastery of English.
I wish I had his skills in computerese.
I believe this guy. He sounds like an insider who wants to be free of Google.

If he is correct in the divisions in Mozilla, then hopefully this cretin of a CEO will soon be out the door.

Though I feel bad for the guy who got a forced retirement, I’m sure he is smart enough to find his medicine of cold revenge.

Quoth Rush in today's opening segment:

I'm still not through with this. Just couple more things that I want to run by. I read again the statement from the babe at Mozilla. Listen to this paragraph. I read this to you last week. "Mozilla believes both in equality and free speech." No, you don't! You do not believe in equality and freedom of speech!

I burst out laughing when I heard the word "babe".

I looked at downloading PM but they are only for Windows and I use Linux. Looks like a good browser though.

Pale Moon is also available for Linux, in some cases pre-built. In other cases (distros) you will have to compile it yourself.

That is the same I got from it.

I am trying not to count the chickens before they hatch here... but, at least for those computer savvy in the states, this just pened up a BIG door. Also read reports of Spain (online) protesters (think they make a twitter named #NoZilla), but I don’t do social websites, so not for sure..

Between the JCPenny, Hobby Lobby, Chick-a-Fillet crap... hopefully this incident will open up more eyes (on the open-source computing side). I have been with them since before they were even here (Netscape.. and there was one before that called Mosaic.. I was still BBSing at the time.. didn’t pay too much attention to the ‘new’ thing).

About him moving on... I am looking forward to it.. and I hope he comes out “guns-a-blazing” with a new open source browser... I will volunteer to be a guinea pig.

There is a Linux version out.. but I am running the Win version on my Linux until they put it in a Linux repository (WINE).

Works fine on wine, and, as a matter of fact, adds another layer of security :D

Screw Google. Screw Mozilla. They are both bottomless pits of leftist dementia.

THAT is what I am waiting for to happen.. Many of us have been waiting for this to implode for a decade+ (and not talking specifically about Mozilla/FireFox).

I have a Snow Leopard disc on the way.

I went through that process a year and a half ago. It was a bit of a hassle because I couldn't find Snow Leopard to order on the Apple Store website. It had gone off support earlier in the year, as I recall. I ended up having to call Apple support.

Hello [cynwoody],

Thanks for calling today. I am sure you will enjoy your new Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. I have included the number to customer service if you need any assistance with this order as well as the number to Applecare for technical support.

Cust. Service 1(800) 676-2775
Applecare 1(800) 275-2273

Keep in mind that if you have any further questions about Apple products you can call me directly or send me an email. I can serve as your dedicated and personal Mac Expert for the Apple store. I'll make sure you are aware of all the resources Apple has for you and work hard to find the best solution that is right for your specific needs.

Thanks,

Totally agree. I have supported Mozilla for decades because of their ‘projected’ beliefs. Google has been avoided on my side for at lease a decade... Mozilla is now on the avoid list.

The queers/fascists have taken over almost every aspect of our own lives... We need to stand up and stop them.

The interesting thing here is the Google connection. Lost in the Eich thing was the fact that the Google representative on World Vision just resigned from the board (and presumably Google is stopping its monetary support) because World Vision reversed its position endorsing the homosexual agenda. My strong suspicion is that happened in the first place because of strong and coordinated pressure against World Vision by Google and Microsoft (which also has a member on the board), probably also in connection with pressure from the Obama administration to pull federal assistance given through the USAID program.

Immediately prior to World Vision saying it would accept homosexual “marriage,” it announced it had gotten a $10 million donation from Microsoft.

It's "much more deeper."

I do believe that google has pressured Mozilla. Mozilla could’ve stood on principle but they didn’t. So they are no better than google.
