Yahoo Pipes not supported w/ Opera =(

, , ,

The Yahoo pipes editor will not show up - I just get a blank page (using Opera 10 + Mac OS X 10.5.8). Not at all - even if you click OK.

As advised, I tried different user agents in 'Site preferences'. Setting to 'Mask as Firefox' does load the editor but that's about it: Can't drag and drop.

"The best thing to do to try and alleviate this problem is to get the message across to as many people as possible that Opera should be supported in the sort of browser-sniffing script that causes you to receive this error message. We suggest you e-mail the web site's webmaster and request that the script be changed to support Opera and other alternative browsers.

You may also point this person to the following pages:

Opera for Web Designers
Why Open the Web?

Starting with Opera 8, there is also a menu option designed for making it easier to report problems with specific sites. This will report the URL, your comments and some basic system settings to Opera, and we will investigate these reports and see if there's anything that can be done to circumvent the problem.

This menu option is available from Help > Report a site problem....
"
From OperaKB: Browser unsupported, or you need to upgrade your browser messages

Will Yahoo! Listen to me if I write them a message?
A big company like that may need lots of signatures to be noticed...
hmm?


If you have the same problem, please vote here - thanks

Poll: Car Exhaust vs Cigarette Smoke

, , ,

The question is (if I had more space):

You have to choose between being in a hermetically closed room with either a heavy smoker or a running car, which would you choose?

If you choose...

• 'heavy smokers' : you might get cancer if you repeat this often

• 'running car' : you are dead after 15 min depending on the size of the room.

Motor car exhaust may have contained up to 25% carbon monoxide. However, catalytic converters found on all modern automobiles eliminate over 99% of carbon monoxide produced. As a further complication, the amount of unburned gasoline in emissions can make exhaust unbearable to breathe well before losing consciousness.

Suicide methods:Carbon monoxide poisoning - Wikipedia

At one time it was the fashion in Japan, people would put a tube from the exhaust pipe in to the car and hermetically close the windows with sellotape. Newspapers claimed these people often met online though notices like "I don't have the courage to kill myself alone. Who want's to die with me?"


Conclusion:

Cigarettes and cars both seem to pollute[a] and kill!

Choose an old car for exhaust suicides.
