Can't trust cops, nowhere.
If you haven't noticed, we're living in a police state.

Cops are selected for those that follow orders, without question.
Check out the movie "The Nuremberg Defense".
See other parallels from the 30s & 40s?

Anyway, I'm a po' boy favoring W or SW MO.
Anyone need a partner?

There is a lot not to like, about Microsoft products.
IE was a disappointment, early on. Press a button, nothing happened.

I've recently been Minted - Linux Mint 9.
Nice, but still a learning curve.

Then, the are some real issues with privacy, with google being the most ... honest about it.
And, Chrome calls home, all the time, as I understand it. Not an option, to me, anymore than IE.

Are you aware of Flash cookies?
You can't see them.

Firefox extensions:
BetterPrivacy and Ghostery.

My resolution is 1280 x 800, so I did not try changing the resolution.

I did try to change the size of the text, but by the time all of the text was to the left
of the black column, it was too small to read.

Black text blends with the black background, in the black column on the right.

There is a post above, where the text is purple.
This provides a contrast with the black background.

The text in this composition box, does not bleed over into the black column.

From the looks of things, there are some misaligned iFrames.
I'm not a technician, so I'm just guessing, based on appearances.


I've been Minted, anyway, having recently installed Linux Mint 9.
So far, I like it.

I've replied to this topic, rather than starting a new topic, because it seemed to fit my own problem.
