I'm not "attempting" anything, Sunshine, I'm DOING, there's a
difference.

....why would I want to do that? I mean, really, do you have ANY
fuckin cl00 as to how many browsers there are out there? I'm
certainly not interested in keeping track of every sloppy piece of
shit that comes along. I'm only interested in the 99% range,
attempting some sort of absolute perfect is just a waste of time, you
would never get anything accomplished. Perfection doesn't exist, not
in nature not in math not in anything. There is no such thing as a
"perfect circle", take some higher level math courses if yer having
trouble figure it out.

Are you still doing dates as 00, 01, 02, 03?
Fuck, you really need to get over this byte skimping fetish of yours
and come on back to reality. Maybe if I was doing something other
than just detecting the users browser and operating system you might
have a point, but this nitpicking stupidity of yours over something
that's about 1 kilobyte in size has just got to stop, kiddo, it's not
healthy.

As are most of your "reductions"...in fact most of your reductions
sacrifice just a handful of kilobytes for a shit load of computing
cycles and sometimes I think you forget that scripting languages run
WAY slower than compiled languages...in fact sometimes I get the
distinct impression you don't actually test any of this stuff that you
propose. *shrugs*
