The CyberNet blog previously showed us how to make Firefox remember any password, even for high-security websites that prevent password saving. That hack doesn't always work in Firefox 3, but they've got another solution. By changing one value in a Firefox configuration file—found at C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\components\nsLoginManager.js in Windows, and Firefox.app\Contents\MacOS\components\nsLoginManager.js on Macs (the location will vary for Linux users, best to search for it), you can have Firefox ignore any flags thrown down by websites to prevent password saving. CyberNet walks through the nitty-gritty of the code change and how to undo it, but it's worth stating again that you'll only want to do this if you've got other systems in place to secure your saved passwords.

The NBN Sucks: What Can I Do?
The NBN is a painful political boil on the government's arse. After the promise of fast 100Mbps connections was squashed by the Abbott/Turnbull government, in favour of a program that said 25Mbps qualified as broadband, there have been all sorts of delays and issues with the service.
A recent survey, albeit with a small sample size, quantified some of that pain, with many NBN customers saying they'd prefer to go back to their old ADSL connections. You know things are bad when ADSL looks like a better option. So, what can you do about it if you're on the NBN but it sucks?
McDonald's Just Killed The McDouble Burger
Alas, my McDouble-loving friends, it appears McDonald's has sent the popular burger off into the sunset. From what we know, it won't be replaced with the McSingle, or the McTriple, leaving fans to make do with less-thrifty substitutes.
