Why sign up when you can use someone else's throwaway account? There's even
a cool little Firefox extension (from
roachfiend.com, IIRC) that lets you
right-click on a password field and have Firefox grab a password from the
database and automatically feed it to the login form.
Saves meddling around setting up throwaway accounts (though I have plenty
of those already) :)
Got that installed here (under firefox, of course) but for some reason it
didn't seem to want to work just then. I dunno why, but for some odd reason
my browser got *very* sluggish around that point in time, so I ended up
shutting it down and restarting it. <shrug> It just does that sometimes,
depending on how much memory gets used here...
*Something* I use under KDE has one heck of a persistent memory leak. The
longer I leave it up and the more things I do the worse it gets. I switch
over to a console where I have top running and look at the swap number.
Without x up and running it's usually no more than 3M or so, once it gets up
over 50, things start to slow down, and when I saw that sluggish behavior
it was up over 110 or so. With pretty much the same mix of apps running.
Maybe next version they'll get it fixed?
