Ah, and that also requires JavaScript, which I normally have turned off.

  I wonder if anyone on Hacker News does the excellent service of doublechecking linked pages for attempted nastiness.

  It's mid 2012, why are you browsing the web with javascript off? I realize you want safeguard privacy and whatnot, but at least turn it on for website you use legitimately.

      I hack on my mechanical keyboard, with my keyboard driven window manager, using my television as a monitor, because I don't pay for cable while I browse the interwebs using emacs or maybe elinks (with TABS on but JAVASCRIPT OFF) unless I have to use a graphical terminal for something like flash or java in which case I use firefox with noscript and allow scripts as needed until things work. But, I recently shaved my neckbeard. So there's that going for my class!
