Well all of Europe is now called EU so it's just the same thing. Only we have a lot of different people in charge you only have one idiot. I wonder what's best...:)
My mother would have been happy running Win98 on her old workhorse (P2 400Mhz) but when it needed reinstalling (and lets face it, all MS-Windows need reinstalling sometime...) I just installed XP SP2 on it instead.
Now the fight is on whether or not to relocate her to Linux instead but that's another story.
Slashdot likes car analogies: I don't NEED a newer car than my P1800 Volvo from 1961, but Oh, Volvo doesn't support it anymore, if it breaks, Sure I'll blame Volvo... it's their fault right?
Noo... the US suck because of GWB Junior, MAFIAA, Hollywood (that produces more crap than imaginable), but mostly because of the fact that you think $1.5 is expensive for a gallon of gas...
I'm posting the article in English here with some changes due to Translate.Google not being able to translate everything 100%.
--- Hitta.se beats Google Earth with new 3D-technology from Saab.
Search company Hitta.se has a new Web service that is better than Google Earth to show Sweden in a 3D view. In Stockholm there, for example, every single building as a realistic 3D model.
With the help of robotics from Saab and the Swedish software for computer games Hitta.se search company has developed a Web service that shows Sweden in 3D and which is clearly better than the corresponding service from Google Earth.
Directly in the browser, users can zoom in, tilt and turn the flygfotograferade views across the country. With the help of altitude measurements images of the land are created where the mountains and valleys appear with genuine feeling of depth.
The new service, which launched May 29, is also all buildings from Stockholm, in the form of realistic 3D models.
Although they can be turned and turned and seen from any height and angle.
Later this year, including the second appearance of Sweden's largest cities as a complete 3-D models.
The major competitor in the show Sweden in 3D is Google Earth. But there are only a few dozen 3-D buildings from Stockholm and a few other cities.
Google's 3D view of Sweden was also much lower quality than that Hitta.se offer. Both in terms of image resolution and altitude.
-- We have created 3-D feature to give users a more fun and more realistic ways to use our maps, "says Rui de Sousa Brit who is president and CEO of Hitta.se
But the new service does not yet cover all planned features. Therefore, it's "sneak launched" and goes by the name of "the lab" on the company's website.
Moreover, such as some 3D buildings refined when the houses angles can be a little crooked and some facades have bad sharpness.
The technology used was developed by the Swedish companies C3 Technologies in LinkÃping and Agency9 in Lulea. C3 is a subsidiary of Saab and develop technology that has its origin in seeker for robots.
The technology is based on high resolution aerial photography with carefully calibrated cameras. In order to build 3-D model of Stockholm, which covers an area of 200 square kilometres was 60 000 images from 600 metres above sea level, which took three days.
Then, it took only a few more days to automatically create 3-D model, where even individual trees are included.
Tommy Johansson who is president and CEO of C3 know that some defence in the world have developed similar technology. But he is not aware of anyone else who introduced the technology for civilian purposes.
-- We aim to launch our technology globally and believe that, for example, urban planners and businesses similar Hitta.se can become our customers, "says Tommy Johansson.
Other companies based 3-D models of entire cities primarily use lasermÃtningar to collect 3D data. For example, Google and Microsoft for their service Virtual Earth.
It is a technology that is much more costly and time consuming than the C3's way.
Photo and mapping services from Google and Microsoft require users to install special software on your own computer. In Google Earth in the form of a stand-alone program and the Virtual Earth as a plug which is available only for Windows.
But Hitta.se 3D runs directly into the browser by using javateknik and works for most operating systems and browsers.
-- I think that both Google and Microsoft may have some problems with sleep when they see the new service from hitta.se, "says Tommy Johansson.
In order to be able to present all 3D data in the new map in the form of realistic buildings used technology developed for computer games.
It comes from the Agency 9 of Lulea. The company began by building a so-called rendering engine for web games. Eg. software that draws up 3D environments on the computer screen.
Well, the first time I did it, I did indeed agree to it. But the next time I just changed my VISA number and a few days later they had withdrawn 15 SEK.
No.. when I change my credit card information on PayPal they deduct 15SEK that and then I get them back on my PayPal account (from which they take a percentage?) So it's realy PayPal that steals?
I hate it when that happens... Everyone got up and left and I was running late for my bus (which I missed anyway...) so what was it? What did I miss? Message me?
Besides, I then have to manually minimize them if I want to use another program, and then manually bring them back up after clicking on an image window. Still annoying. Clicking an image in Gimp should bring the image up along with a full set of editing tools. Why would you want to minimize all of Gimps windows just to use another program? Just click up the other program and it will cover the Gimp windows. Then when you are done with it minimize that.
But I agree that Gimp should open all it's windows if anyone of the windows are raised.
Again, you assume that everyone have the right to have weapons (guns/rifles etc). In Sweden where I live you have to be a certified hunter to have a rifle or weapon at home. The only ones carrying weapons are the police and the criminals (and the military). If I have a gun, I have no right to use it on another person unless it's the only way a situation might be resolved (robbery at home) and then I'll be prosecuted for man slaughter (I believe the term is) if I accidentally kill him. If I take the gun outside and it's not hunting season someone will call the police.
The argument that everyone should have the right to arms is preposterous. After the two first shots, how do you know who's the bad guy? Oh I forgot in USA it's always the black guy, right?;)
I guess you live in the US of A since you refer to shooting an attacker.
In war time, shooting an opposing human is still a violent act. I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm just stating that it's a violent act and guns are made for different kinds of violence.
Should I hope that you get less stab wounds and more gun shot wounds instead? I don't agree with your knife analogy.

Read TFA:
"The ability to upgrade your career skills via mini-game diversions looks better than grinding and cold, hard stats arrangement."
It didn't seem like more grind to me than any other RPG released in the last years...

Who in their right mind have a computer online with Windows 95/98 or ME on it?
Google should put it on their front page telling people to switch...
So?
Make them upgrade to Firefox then?
Maybe the Training should include this web page?
Noo... the US suck because of GWB Junior, MAFIAA, Hollywood (that produces more crap than imaginable), but mostly because of the fact that you think $1.5 is expensive for a gallon of gas...
This is getting worse by the minute.
Have you played WOW? Of course he used it as an escape, it's impossible to enjoy it ;)
Do you have a link to those registry tweaks?
I'm sick and tired of all folders wanting to sort after "Date Taken" instead of "Date Modified"
Well.. that's crap isn't it?
That's going to be dangerous...

Sweden... Use google much?

I really hope he didn't call himself Crash Override...
You read the article? WTF?

Why would Mac be any different?
the Conan MMORPG recently had a client download of 25GB's no problem. It's called torrents.
Heck I download 25GB's in less than 2 hours.
I hate it when that happens... Everyone got up and left and I was running late for my bus (which I missed anyway...) so what was it? What did I miss?
Message me?

But yeah, that's violent too
