Force Enable Disabled Or Incompatible Addons In Firefox
Fri, 2012/01/20 - 15:18 | 
phil There are several ways to forcefully enable disabled or "incompatible" addons in Firefox, but they ultimately do the same thing. I recently started having issues with the 32bit version of Firefox, stealing 1GB - 1.5GB of memory from my system if I had more than 3-4 tabs open. (I usually average about 8 - 15) Knowing the 32bit probably wasn't handling the memory right, I decided to try out the nightly x64 build to see if it would help my memory situation.

RewriteRule ^.*\.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ http://example2.net/misc/images/hotlink-image.jpg [NC,R,L]
Apache .htaccess Rewrite CDN / Parallel Subdomains Drupal CDN
Sun, 2011/11/27 - 00:32 | admin First off, I suck at programming... secondly, I suck at apache rewrite rules because it's basically programming. It took me a while to come up with a no-nonsense method to rewrite my parallel / cdn subdomain names, so I wouldn't get hassled by the search engines because it looked like I had all sorts of duplicate content being served from my cdn subdomains.
