    It’s a good thing that he didn’t made backups.

    The Backups from Brazil.

  8. Thiefsie says:

    Well that’s nice. Firefox just crashed on me and I lost all my years hard saving of bookmarks all anally organised and hardly to be found again. Yay. Stupid fucking updating!! Grrrr

  9. Mike says:

    Oh but what game is it!? What game!?

  10. Koldunas says:

    Hearts of Iron?

  11. NOT AN ALIEN says:

    Thiefsie: use the FEBE extension. It makes backups of all your settings and extension installations.

  12. Willem says:

    Mike: Führersim

    Sim City: Berlin

    Third Reich: Total War

    etc etc

  13. Forceflow says:

    Thiefsie: they’re not lost. Just look in your configuration folder, every user profile has a file named bookmarks.html. They’re all there, I’m sure.

  14. Thiefsie says:

    I found them…. something to do with auto updating being broken witout administration rights and some such other nonsense.

    I’m looking up FEBE now.

    I still lost my 70 or so open tabs that I keep permanently of stuff I can’t be bothered bookmarking to look at at a later date :( and firefox 3 doesnt work with tab browser preferences so that history is lost I’m afraid :( Thanks anyway!

    Reminds me of the various ‘Downfall’ parodies :D

  16. Willem says:

    Which reminds me: Downfall: The Game.
    DER UNTERGANG: DAS SPIEL

    It’s a space invaders clone.

    That’s quite impressive and in a different way, quite lazy. ;)
