greasemonkey to the rescue

Have you noticed that the Aeon Flux website is broken in Firefox? It is for me, anyway...

greasemonkey is an extension that lets you modify web pages using JavaScript. Until now I'd dismissed this as total crap, but it turned out to be useful here. Observe: 

(function () {
 t=document.getElementsByTagName("table");
 for(x=0;t[x];x++) {
                t[x].setAttribute("width",768);
  }
 t=document.getElementsByTagName("td");
 for(x=0;t[x];x++) {
                t[x].setAttribute("width",768);
 }
 t=document.getElementsByTagName("th");
 for(x=0;t[x];x++) {
                t[x].setAttribute("width",768);
 }
 t=document.getElementsByTagName("col");
 for(x=0;t[x];x++) {
                t[x].setAttribute("width",768);
 }
 t=document.getElementsByTagName("embed");
  for(x=0;t[x];x++) {
                t[x].setAttribute("width",768);
 }
t=document.getElementsByTagName("object");
 for(x=0;t[x];x++) {
                t[x].setAttribute("width",768);
 }
})();

The above is a large hammer for a small problem, I'll admit, but it does what it needs to do.

flux capacitor

OK, not really. But I did find the entirety of "Aeon Flux 1995," a two-DVD set that came out in (you guessed it) 1995. It's encoded as divx, but it still tastes good to my palate.

If you want it, let me know. You can either download it from me (1.4 gigs, so it'll take a while) or I can do the old burn shuffle. Or, if you're in the Cambridge area, talk to George, who will have it shortly on account of torrenting it.
