fail and comments threads
Clearly the reg is the tabloid IT press, but for the love of god that is no excuse. You commentees need to buck your ideas up - you get prodded with a pointy trollstick on a fortnightly basis and without fail rear up in varying degrees of frothy mouthed nerd rage. i despair, i really do.
Bringing what i like to think of as the buffet cart at the end of this train-wreck comments thread back on track: Opera really is irrelevant these days. Simply passing Acid2 isn't all that impressive and 'speedy' load times are virtually undiscernable from unacceptably 'normal' loadtimes.
i make webapplications for a living, so as a matter of professional pride i endeavor to test my work on every browser a user is likely to encounter, and make sure it works properly. More than this, i can remember exactly how many times somebody has asked me about Opera compatibility in the last 6 years. Once. One client asked me the question on one solitary occasion.
Interest piqued "Why do you ask?" i enquired?.
"oh i was just curious. i'd never heard of it until i read something about it on the web today"
fuck Opera.
