FTFY

Especially the one that mentions terrorists. How does he think that terrorists keep their funding hidden if not through extensive laundering schemes just like this? Are there any laws that Americans would actually keep in statute if they had the choice?

In their editor - Highlight some text, and then click the TAB key. You end up with a tab char that prepends the highlighted characters, AND the entire line becomes highlighted.

Me: That's bug.

Instructor: That's an editor nuance.

Me: You're a retard.

Give the instructor points for creativity? Smile | :)

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Yes, but it's really a very brief waste: all you use IE / Edge for is to download a better browser... Laugh | :laugh:

Same for me, using just once to load FireFox when I forgot to put it on my USB key.

have you removed the governor that limits it to 87 MPH?

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Yes, at the beginning, but I put it back the day I converted it to FlyingCar. It is also the day I got the Dr.Fusion upgrade.

To be honest: I don't see a real difference, all the Browsers Fails then and when. No one of them is really the best, only sometimes more up to date for a certain _ small _ period. Frown | :(

There is a big difference. IE doesn't have AdBlock.
Therefore it is not fit for purpose.

Edge might be the best thing since fried bananas, but I'll never know because it is infested with ads, so I refuse to use it.

So ie does not have AdBlock.... Are you using ie6 or what? No I'm not fan of ie, but please, stay fair and let us discuss techniques and not myths.

Have you ever used IE?
It's horrible. Terrible. Disgusting.
Even the latest version of IE does not support add-ons, so no AdBlock indeed.
As I understood the same goes for Edge.

I noticed you're trying to defend IE in a post below.
Just stop.
IE is bad.
I even have a study book that does not use IE for that reason and it warns specifically for all the quirks in IE.

I've had the same experience, a page works everywhere except in IE or it works in IE and nowhere else.
Did I mention IE really is an atrocity?

Sometimes I'm forced to use IE, it always makes me feel used and dirty.
Because IE really is the worst browser around.
By far.
And then some.

While I'm a big fan on thrash talking Internet Exploded it's not that bad...
At work I use it and I can't complain too much.

After spending a lot of time with chrome and then switching back to firefox I like IE more than chrome. Edge... makes me want to puke thou. I think Microsoft should just provide a tool that allows you to choose and download a browser and then just stop trying.

I really don't see a problem with IE and if you want to use Remote Web Workplace you don't have many alternatives

Edge works better than IE on office365

if we are dealing in clichés I use chrome if I want google to definitely know about what I am searching for

I use firefox, not sure there any caveat's here. I use this for an internal application as I know I can leave the window open all day and still have a usable PC

I haven't found the perfect browser and suspect that whatever is perfect this week will turn out to struggle with something next week
