RefControl is a nice addon for that, with ability to set default behaviour and override it for specific domains.

This should be a browser feature, extension or user script, not a website feature.
copypasteweb | 13 years ago | on: Show HN: garlic.js - don't let your users lose their form data
It should be a browser feature, option or extension, for users to have control over it from one place.

So, nobody cares about more widely adopted <object/> which was supposed to be a solution for future media types and just happens to usually be more stable, have better perfomance and support much more media formats without having to invent new elements for each media type. Not even as a fallback.

RequestPolicy prevents that approach.

Yeah, whitelist can't be downloaded.

>The plugin mentioned at the end won't work - not unless it's going to have a tedious whitelist.
RequestPolicy (Firefox addon) works just fine, not much tedious than NoScript or CookieMonster, for example.
While remotely hosted images may be a strong argument, if the page breaks due to missing fonts or scripts - it's really only site's fault.

>It's impossible to do that, unless they managed to write a new client.
Possible with ROPS.
Possible with OpenKore (a "new client" itself) in XKore mode.
copypasteweb | 15 years ago | on: When is it OK to use Flash?
>Flash soars with video because of hardware acceleration and active streaming
Hardware acceleration and streaming works fine even with HTML4 <OBJECT/>, providing the choice and configuration of media player if user desires.

CSS is not a programming language either.

Broken link.
copypasteweb | 15 years ago | on: Show HN: pygm.us, the fail-only URL shortener
It's not about affiliate links or advertisements. Target URL should be just there, without contacting random servers to determine it.
copypasteweb | 15 years ago | on: Show HN: pygm.us, the fail-only URL shortener
The problem of target URL being unknown until you follow the link still applies.
