2030 hm... is this like the 3D-TV and VR headsets... ?
what happened to google wave ?... google glasses.... ?
its because the chinese are doing it, right ? getting into space and shit ? the apex of military dominance ?
2030 ? too late mate... by then people down here will be choking so you better make it livable up there by 2030, not just probe-able (haha so punny, prob-able im so lulz hahah, no its not funny since people will be starving and choking as far as i know since they cant stop breeding)
its good to see normal people still work on dick measuring contests and dopamine... the need to be beta if you're not alpha (alphas are loners since everyone is scared they might get eaten) and the promise of maybe sometime soon (echo)...soon... s o o n...
i'll be 57 by then, im seriously in dire need of plans to heist banks for 100s of millions for the stemcelltherapy i need to stick around long enough to see anything at all actually happen
anyone wanna join... ocean needed eleven, i think i can do it in five hah hah
kind , you say there, belgian ? id rather be kind than old man... besides since i speak english more than an almost dead language like yours it sounds a lot better (oowh gibrish)
Ah... A.E. Van Voght, LeGuin, Tanith Lee, Roger Zelazny, David Eddings, Jack Vance...
what the fuck is a dean koontz anyway ? some psycho who can't get his head past mars?
i have to admit, when the shy A-grade was still alive, before they killed it i devoured books but i refused to read anything but science fiction and fantasy, i read lord of the rings in a few days when i was nine or... (eight?).. but thats like disney compared to what came after and before isnt it
popular enough to get a film but the best i can remember is like a moral compass bigger than the bible and gedanken experimente(r?-n?) worthy of an Einstein
so, let them eat cake
and awards... i dont care
maybe thats the reason why i quit reading.... real sci-fi is dead like the qubit as biggie stood to hip-hop ?
NO THAT WAS RAP, MAN... hip hop got no singin' on it:D
actually... NO ! to say they are is to say goodspeech is a good thing and you get to regulate and dictate what others say and the leaders of the free worlds very constitution would oppose that in a real world
Its somewhat hard to believe a winner-corp like gugglez would select based on age or gender or whatever since at that i-beat-yo-ass-like-you-was-microsoft-back-in-the-days-level i think its unlikely they'd not go for the best person for the job regardless what
its possible however and this is where i insert my fiendish meme : in a free market in a democracy you can hire or sack whoever the fuck you want since its your company... im all for gender equality and all that, and all against discrimination but im certainly all againt what they call here "positive" discrimination. It leads to political parties filling ranks to get quota, not to get the best people they can have, it leads to the township leading others into temptation of racism and xenofobia cos they need to fill ranks , regardless of skill, theres HAS to be x women, there HAS to be X ethnics. Its highly unlikely that this does not ever get in the way of getting the best team you could have. and THAT is the major problem
so if google doesnt want to, they're missing out on the 40+ guys who do it cos they like it cos they're the best at it. If they hire them cos they have to fill quota they will end up with a badly balanced team.
this 'free' world is REALLY overregulated bureaucracy, when i talk to people who live in not-free places like russia or china or vietnam where they get flogged everyday and have to give half their sandwich to putin or get shot i always correct them into it's a western bureaucracy, not a democracy, highly overrated
although i like the way you react to people you don't like:D i kinda disagree,im not sure wether this is healthy or not since the guy is actually dead.. im not much for humans, i keep a picture of my deceased cat, which is to me a deceased kid and i find myself sometimes talking to it like i would, im quite aware she's dead however and the grave outside reminds me the other one will be too someday. This is more like holding on than letting go, HOWEVER, if it helps peope in getting through their day its 100% debatable, oh shit i almost posted as anonymous coward O M G z , the agonies
i totally agree that its very basic as A.I. might go but its still a decision tree (i suppose) so it counts:D... it might be more versatile in conversation than some meatsacks i met i have been planning to build a personal assistant to help me remind when to put out the trash and speak based on motion detection for quite some time but money dictates otherwise. Wether that's A.I. or not... i think its more like a speaking database with a decision tree on it... if... then... else... quite linear BUT so is most humans, if you look around, and you're a bit of a weirdow, or a halfbreed betazoid theres at least 3/4th of people of which you can predict with certain accuracy what they will say in any given moment so are they A.I. or simply A. ?
debatable. As to the guy below, yea,it's dealing with grief, but its also avoiding, like the will to deny in a way
so
omg i talk an awful lot for somene who woke up ten minutes ago and hasnt had more than half a cup of coffee
stop doing that cat
yes precious
as much as i hate to doublepost myself, im too busy doing laundry, peeling taters, doing dishes, making coffee playing civ, reading half-TFA (or not in this case) and being my chaotic self to not forget to check before i post so :
i understand the need for poor managers and companies, the hand that gets a ton of money by paying you as little as they can to explain why its so hard and all that shit to trust and find people who arent even willing to spend four years in uni to do chaingang logistics and repair for one wage in a factory but
their reasons are quite irrelevant to me... thats like feeling sorry for a guy who pays more taxes cos he earns ten times more than you
corporate crap
(wow i didnt say shit for once, im getting intellectualitis... wheres my meds hurry before i start turning)
Because of euhm past experience i keep it simple in case of actually invited over
10 print "nod";
20 print "smile";
30 until (find_one_that_does){goto 10;} #seriously bad taste using goto basic isnt it
40 if (find_one_that_does){fuckofftothebetteroffer;}
50 #they are not my friends and i dont do charity i clearly, truly do not give one flying fuck about anything but the money unless it would be a totally awesome job where its my company and i get to be the one telling people what to do
outdated skillz obviously
honestly... their reasons dont matter to me, if they dont and someone else will i would break my contract and fuck off to get to the place that lets me do it and let them eat cake and sue if they want to
but thanks for the polite suggestions, those days are over sadly
im not sure about satan or sheytan or where it waits but , but but but... isnt this like from a movie or a science fiction series ? where the guys go back in time to prevent crime ? cos thats how realistic.
this means they can predict which cop is going to shoot which guy of whatever ethnic minority or sensitive subculture in exactly what spot so they can drop the swat on em before it happens...
the omega point is broken... REJOICE!
pardon my sarcasticat for its filled with what you put in it o lords and ladies of the towers high in mordor where the shadows are
crap... allow me to doublepost addon/correct myself... im not sure if that has made it to actual law status but if theres money to be had im quite sure it will go down like most popular laws... wait until the mediastorm dies, if theres any at all, then quickly pass it while the plebs is sleeping or theres footy on tv
in belgium....
that's in belgium ?.... the place where the governments decide its completely within european and moral privacy policy to SELL your medical data to pharmaceutical companies ?
the same one ? impressive
ah-uh breaking news... who would have thought ?
do you think it will stop if everyone who fought afghanistan.. i mean the russians while using afghanistan as battlegrounds will... euhm, pass on
i personally think that its a dangerous game if the inherent narcissism in the culture takes itself so far it succeeds in antagonizing about every nuclear and definitely every superpower on the planet
where a little honey might work better... tis like china and japan... old people and old grudges in the way of future generations
no... europe doesnt count as a superpower last time i checked... without the U.K. even less
did someone just warn me about if you dont stop posting....... nah that must have been my paranoid alien again... its a free world here, right ?
ceci n'est pas une blague omg... i was just thinking yesterday if i operated telesales id only hire women and gay people cos its impossible to be sexist if you discriminate straight white guys right (at the risk of sounding trump-ist, which i'm not, my enemies are hippiecrites and gremmar nazis regardles of cunt, dick, colour or religion)
and there we go... it's a bitch conspiracy
well, i could use a laugh after a week like this.. and there it is, my prayer answered, now my life is fixed and by tomorrow i'll have buffet money
still funny = lulz
Yea , my thought exactly... humans have this ape-like ability inherited from the parent object allowing them to...
these homocentrists miss the fatal flaw every time, the only thing the observer misses is itself and what it sees in the mirror is distorted by what others think, due to the ape-like ability and wishful thinking all-alike
in short,.. humans are filth
ulz... i remember reading years and years ago an article on how genetic programming said just that... 120-ish , so that was a bible freak disguised as a scientist and these guys come up with it for the first time
or i fell through a hole in spacetime again
Anyone remember how the 3D tv was taking over every living room in the world ?
as in, not affordable due to stagnation,... some place in EU got 50% youth unemployment, belgium has an inactive population of 60% , more actually... how many of those... if we exclude from that the ageing population will buy a VR-set over crack, meth or.. maybe even food in the next ten years?
its a dam' good question sir... do you have a 3D-tv ? i actually never saw one other than in youtube videos and theres wasnt much to see like that
changes every time, not every hour, despite that i still can't use to lock / unlock packed files, login to windows or linux or
well since mtgox i havent actually used one, they cracked that problem pretty fast... go bust and run off with the money
point being : my yubikey changes everytime and is said to be as far as i know quite hard to hack in the middle, then again i have been living under a rock for years now so i dont know if that actually still applies
to some... its nice to always hear about china, korea and russia and im not in denial but im not of service either if i hear the EU-version of raison d'état and read up a little on what the land of Orwell does to protect its what about the children
Yes, we must think about the children and use nothing but goodspeak. Empower the insignificance of four-letter combinations so much that they actually become powerful while no one gave a flying fuckabout the use of it before. And teach them how to... do flawed guns shoot holes in people ? no wait, that's not a car-metaphor ARGS ! agreed, most likely the use of skyscraper environments so far above machine level no one actually knows what they're doing but its fine as long as it looks matrix i suppose
might be the point there, yea
lot more competition , agreed , nuff said... maybe i can convince the belgian governments to have less champagne speeches and fire 3 in 5 state employes, use the money for startups and
more competition... for some reason i think that would make me unpopular here
i always feel like the two major providers here are a single duopoly who get together to fix prices, as monopoly/cartel as it gets buy whos to say, people here are used to swallowing
i actually got stopped and frisked once cos i was spitting... heh heh (not funny)
its one of the newer models closer to the look of the 128. All i see is a floppy drive.. melancholy , cutters to doubleside, press play on tape, drive to the next town to get an issue off Zzap, come back get a coffee and start playing i never shoulda sold it. Quite amazing though
its about that 14th lamborghine paid for with money from people who probably wouldnt buy it anyway... the great gap sby in the facts... how many people who download would actually pay ?
as with all things, after this they only set a precedent and they can afterwards sue another 10.000 sites, which actually leads to more lawyer money than the estimate lost on downloads but to compensate for that they will probably hire copyright trolls who get paid to extort money from downloadmom etcetera
after which a simple freeware tool will rise that allows it to be done anyway and it was all for nothing
i think we know the drill by now, or maybe they get their lawyers pro bono or they dont know how to make a balance sheet... its pretty clear for many years that its just a testosterone contest by old men in suits who remember the good old days when they sued the cassette recorder for turning the beatles and the stones into beggars under the bridge.
I dont see how any judge can for this "we sue you for money we cant prove we would have made thing" and
the king of sales lord Gagen de-mythbustered the idea that you need to publish console only cos pc gamers are all pirates . Spotify and whatnot proves for while now that its possible to just let people choose if they wanna pay and make actual money without threatening them
i think somewhere sometime in a galaxy far away some of these people will come to their senses and notice that in business , its about making money and all these suits cost a lot more than they gain
maybe in 2050 when the earth is full and the foodriots start
HEH, because hacking is baaed... programming is guuued, hacking is baaaed... so if modding is turning kids into hacksersses then i sugges we take all C-developers and put them in guantanamo to make sure cos they definitely will be terreerirzzztsts
i mean... come on... lets just make computer science class illegal and have the russians and the chinese hack the planet in the meantime
i think they dont really get this things about hacking and have a very hollywood idea about it, never heard of a red or white hat and would probably sue the kid who points out the flaws in their system instead of offering him a wellpaid job
how come the whole of europe AND the states simply has like ZERO "nationalist" hackers ?
does that mean all westerners except the russians are too dumb to get into creative programming ?
or is that cos they have to first capture lulzsecheads and force them to do contracyburring ?
whatever it is its odd, like no one wants to actually do it for god and country overhere
and there
1. I pay eur43/month, for unlimited fiber to the house 100/100 Mbps internet. By "unlimited", I really mean unlimited; we're usually below 1TB (B=byte) each month, but there are a few times we've exceeded it. There are no blocked ports, and I run a webserver and a mailserver at home.
2. I pay eur12/month, for unlimited cellphone internet at "up to" 40 Mbps. No idea about blocked ports, but it allows the ports I've used through. It is unlimited otherwise, and I've used 60GB in some months.
Myah, living in the second most taxed and one of the most costly terrorist capitals of europe i think "unlimited" here costs about 80 euros a month including a few digital tv channels
they got another one that has cell and landphones which
comes down to they getting an all in one monopoly package i dont know how much you know about the old world (guy who replied to this)... but here we have a duopoly which mainly comes down to the same thing cos they keep the prices in check, its like they sit round the table and roll some dice to see who's gonna get the promotion and be the good guy this month and just split the cake in two, the infrastructure used, cable or dsl is actually the one that was here before , used for tv and ma bell (one of them is ma bell)
BUT, im in a real slump in a downward economy here im down to two pcs and one steam account i dont even have a console anymore and my smartphone is a €85 euro lg sporty
if i pick one the "big data" packages coming at 100gb/ month (perfect for the retired person who reads the news and emails im sure)
and i reinstall both pcs i would need over six months to install it all
i dont know how much the last battlefield beta demo was i think somewhere 15 to 30 gb... you get a lot of that lately, i suppose consoles try to sell you download games too simply cos you wil require more space and they keep drm control as in
well once its sold out they close the server and your "lease" is over
as opposed to the good old optical pre-history where you could keep them stacked on the shelf and if need be download a patch (crack is such an evil word) to KEEP USING what you paid for pardon my caps
etcetera, that verizon bs is obviously bs but if you think monopolies dont exist here... my good man, corruption here takes place at the level of mi5 and james bond
censorship is done by "raison d état" where as overther it would be terrerizm
its not that differnent
the biggest difference is
have you ever even heard of a potential breakup of the dollar or the united states ?
q.e.d. i rest my case your honour so dont get me started on the police state and the judicial system please

You're getting ripped off.
1. I pay eur43/month, for unlimited fiber to the house 100/100 Mbps internet. By "unlimited", I really mean unlimited; we're usually below 1TB (B=byte) each month, but there are a few times we've exceeded it. There are no blocked ports, and I run a webserver and a mailserver at home.
2. I pay eur12/month, for unlimited cellphone internet at "up to" 40 Mbps. No idea about blocked ports, but it allows the ports I've used through. It is unlimited otherwise, and I've used 60GB in some months.
Myah, living in the second most taxed and one of the most costly terrorist capitals of europe i think "unlimited" here costs about 80 euros a month including a few digital tv channels they got another one that has cell and landphones which comes down to they getting an all in one monopoly package ... but here we have a duopoly which mainly comes down to the same thing cos they keep the prices in check, its like they sit round the table and roll some dice to see who's gonna get the promotion and be the good guy this month and just split the cake in two, the infrastructure used, cable or dsl is actually the one that was here before , used for tv and ma bell (one of them is ma bell)
... you get a lot of that lately, i suppose consoles try to sell you download games too simply cos you wil require more space and they keep drm control as in
... my good man, corruption here takes place at the level of mi5 and james bond
i dont know how much you know about the old world (guy who replied to this)
BUT, im in a real slump in a downward economy here im down to two pcs and one steam account i dont even have a console anymore and my smartphone is a €85 euro lg sporty if i pick one the "big data" packages coming at 100gb/ month (perfect for the retired person who reads the news and emails im sure) and i reinstall both pcs i would need over six months to install it all
i dont know how much the last battlefield beta demo was i think somewhere 15 to 30 gb
well once its sold out they close the server and your "lease" is over
as opposed to the good old optical pre-history where you could keep them stacked on the shelf and if need be download a patch (crack is such an evil word) to KEEP USING what you paid for pardon my caps
etcetera, that verizon bs is obviously bs but if you think monopolies dont exist here
censorship is done by "raison d état" where as overther it would be terrerizm
its not that differnent
the biggest difference is
have you ever even heard of a potential breakup of the dollar or the united states ?
q.e.d. i rest my case your honour so dont get me started on the police state and the judicial system please
