Send ESPN a letter and request they print out a screen shot of the pages you are trying to access and mail them back to you. If you want to watch one of their highlight videos request that they print out the pages in flipbook form. Clearly the best alternative here.

yeah is anyone still using firefox? I disowned it after I realized how it turned into bloatware that wouldn't allow me to do anything on my computer but use firefox.

She should notice if she tries to play Skyrim.

Anyways, dump it, and use Google Chrome.

yeah i'm pretty sure i'd notice if it was anything more than slight, but thanks for the weird put down trots

anyway since you all have switched i'll check it out and probably will too. something taking less resources is always good

if you use firefox "out of the box" then it's really really terrible

once you get into the technical parameters it runs like a well oiled machine.

i'm not sucking google's dick on this one

i cannot explain how mad i'd be if i took my computer to someone to get fixed and that's what they did

whoever pays monte for it services probably wouldn't know the difference

it's probably mormons that treat computers like Hansel and Derek Zoolander

how often do you think monte says the phrase "Oh, this should be working..." or, "Darn, usually that fixes it."

firefox on PC is bloatware full of memory leaks, but it works fine on the Mac

all the optimizations are still valid and work just as well since you're altering the core behavior of the browser

new versions of firefox are usually security patches with very little difference in terms of how it works on its base

you assume a lot about me

you're right that i don't keep up with current computer software sometimes but i have a very good basic knowledge of computer software and hardware and am good at troubleshooting. i'm sure i'm as competent as you are in this area and certainly more than the "girl" stereotype :rolleyes:

but yeah just think whatever you want about me

yeah except you're totally wrong and won't acknowledge it but that's okay.

just because i don't pay as much attention to celebrities and am okay with being "lame" in other ways you have defined doesn't mean i don't know what's going on around me. i just quantify it in different ways like everyone else in the fucking world

can you believe i know the rules to sports and stuff too?
