Why browsers are bloated

Let's reinvent the fucking scrollbar, which every goddamn platform with a UI already has, and make it behave subtly different from the native one!

Right-click a native scrollbar in some other app:
- Scroll Here
- Top
- Bottom
- Page Up
- Page Down
- Scroll Up
- Scroll Down

Right-click a scrollbar in Chrome:
- Back
- Forward
- Reload
- Save As...
...

Right-click a scrollbar in Firefox and Opera:
Absolutely fucking nothing happens!

What the fuck!? How did these terminally retarded idiots get involved in creating one of the most important pieces of software to the average user?

Well, you can share it, but only with people that you reasonably believe aren't trying to dox me. And the communication medium you use should reasonably protect the information from people who may be trying to dox me.

I understand how you feel. I once posted my website on w4ch and some passerby tried to dox me. I had fake information in the whois, but it was still unnerving to see someone repeatedly try to find 123 Fake St, Chovlsowisopo City, Texas for no other reason than to show off that they could Google ``how do I lok up dns info''. Then they complained that I had fake data on there and wanted to report me to the registrar. I want scared obviously, but it was so frustrating to have someone come into your home and start breaking shit because he thinks it makes him cool, then tell you all about how he's a super skilled cat burglar who's just trying to teach you a lesson.

That said, do you really have stalker gangs that can identify you based only on the style of your code?

>>322
I can't but it's still an improvement over posting it online for all to see. Let the data float around in circles rather than putting it all exposed to the world and giving a world a record of my code, its commit history, and a sequence of time stamps from commit times so they can attempt to infer which timezone I'm in. There's ways around these, but why bother when I'm doing it for free anyway.

>>323
Indeed.

That said, do you really have stalker gangs that can identify you based only on the style of your code?
As long as at least one organization in the world opposes anonymous authorship, every pseudo-anonymous author has a common stalker. I don't see that situation changing. The thing that matters is how much resources they have. If it's an angry nerd (like in your case) a horrendous faggot may look up dns information and do something pointless. But there are also very talented people who don't support anonymity. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a stylometry engine for source code.

GDI has been hardware-accelerated since at least Windows 3.x (I have the SDK to prove it.) Some idiots at MS fucked things up with Vista, but GDI-accelerated blits are back with Win7 and I believe they are there in Win8 too.

Can you put your browser on the fossil repo, please? Or are you crazy like the guy above, thinking people will anuslyze your code and link it to your offline persona?

Even sharing your binary will give many information about you:
1: The compiler you used
2: The arch you used
3: The version of the compiler you used
4: Your OS, Distribution or even if you compiled the compiler yourself
5: The time you compiled it
6: The options you passed to the compiler
7: Many information about the version of the linked libraries
8: Symbols and shit
etc

Do not forget that for a software to be free you only need to give the source to the people that already have the binary.

He's either green or negro, it can't be both!
Or do you mean literally green (in colour) and figuratively negro (in behaviour)?
You should pay more attention to your posts; people won't be able to follow your thoughts if you don't give enough explanation.

No, that's not possible. I can see him and he's green in colour.
Did you mean negro figuratively or not? That's all we need to know. You should really work on your conversation skills, faget. It'd help us understand you better.
Negro and green?! It can't be literally both at the same time!

But "literally" can mean anything you want it to these days.

Name: Anonymous 2014-11-23 23:43

>>342
It can't! Just because the retards don't know it's meaning and use it incorrectly, it doesn't mean the word lost its true significance. Stop unironically butchering the language!

Name: Anonymous 2014-11-24 2:19

>>343
From a linguistic point of view, you're wrong. Words change meanings over years based on how society uses them. There are plenty of words that no longer mean what they used to. "Scene" for instance, comes from the Greek word for "tent." The word "meritricious" means "unnecessarily ornate", when it originally meant "related to prostitutes."

Name: Anonymous 2014-11-24 3:08

>>344
Yes, those words have changed meanings from one thing to another unrelated one, but their old and new meaning usually don't imply any kind of contradiction.

On the other hand, "literally" went from meaning "literally" to meaning "figuratively", which is the exact opposite of the old meaning. Now tell me, how many times has this happened in history? I'm guessing none.

Off the top of my head, the word "irony" and its derivatives. Furthermore, "terrible" and "incredible." (Originally meaning "inciting terror" and "unbelievable.")

>>347
You're right, I should have said a descriptivist linguistic point of view. There are still linguists who share >>343-kun's philosophy. They are wrong.

Fucking retards, what non-problem are you arguing about this time? You'd be better off reading about datatypes a la carte by Wouter Swierstra. That's some real power there.

Name: Anonymous 2014-11-24 19:31

>>356
This is a serious off-topic discussion.

Name: Anonymous 2014-11-24 22:50

>>356
We re-implement Extensible Effects within `Data types à la carte' to demonstrate the difference with the Swierstra's original approach. It turns out that when it comes to effects, Data types à la carte are not extensible or composable. The insight from the Category Theory of evaluation as catamorphism proved misleading.

Name: Anonymous 2014-11-24 22:53

>>358
We accept the inconveniences of ALCarte. With the superficial differences eliminated, with the extensible effects being `just' an ALCarte library, a gap emerges. The farther we look into it, the deeper it becomes, separating the two approaches by the modularity and compositionality, or the lack of it. The gap goes to the differences in design. The elegant ideas of catamorphisms and algebras, central to ALCarte, seems to have been counter-productive.

Well, ain't that the breaking news no one expected. Academic faggots have tied their dicks in a knot.
