I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

-t, have you ever synced successfully across desktops?

With Opera? No, but I just have the one functional desktop now so I haven't tried, either. Back in my multiple computer having times I had Firefox and Safari synced up to my satisfaction, I think.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Different environments, different uses.

Ah, see--I want to carry a little bit of home with me when I leave the house (or caren't be arsed to go into the next room), whether it be pretty people or coding tips or online shopping. In fact, I bookmark a bunch of stuff for later review, and the ER with either tablet is the best place to work through that.

the 2-factor authentication thing is a PITA. I have it for gmail, but nothing else. I had it for dropbox, but it broke my access to dropbox, so I killed it there.

I have a question about how Google crawls. If you set up a website with no index file at the root, and various subdirectories with index.html files and no robots.txt files anywhere, how does Google find the subdirectories to index them?

We just opened a firewall to a site fitting the above description Sunday morning, and the sub-index.htmls were showing up on Google Monday morning.

We're not making that mistake twice. I've suggested robots.txt, but I don't know if that's going to happen.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

In IIS at least, you can set the directories to allow a user to do a 'dir' or whatever of the current directory. Do you have that enabled?

I misstated in my post. There was an index.html. They set it up to look like t body . t /body so it's easy but not obvious to the eye that something's there. So, no links, and I'm assuming at that point you can't dir the directory, right?
