Annoyance

(What an attention seeking title :S)

I find it highly annoying when Firefox allows certain pop-ups to open when I click on form elements such as textfields etc. I also find it highly annoying when it allows windows to resize the browser - nothing like clicking a link and the next second finding the browser in a minuscule rectangle on the top left of your screen. While I'm at it, I also dislike websites using the "_blank" attribute to force a link to load in a new window.

The following are the steps to rectify this:

What the fuck is with the Apple updater always asking me to install Quicktime or Quicktime + iTunes when I don't have either software on my PC? I only installed a beta version of Safari. It's an updater. Not an installer. What's with every company going through a phase of this opt-out bullshit.

O hearken to me
All ye marketing morons
Fucking die already!

Incidentally, the current beta of Safari crashes every time I open it in XP SP2 :S

I suck at regex. But the fact that Eclipse leaves trailing whitespace everywhere is pretty fucking annoying. Although, this will apparently be solved in 3.3, that's still a month or so away (IIRC). Anyways, while I normally just use a $ regex search (whitespace switches don't like working in Eclipse's find dialog) to repeatedly weed out the bastards, today, I came across a more robust expression. Here goes:

Find: [\t ]+(?:(\n)|$)
