In short, "Commander Keen creator says Direct3D is now better than OpenGL" is an argument from authority. Arguments from authority are fallacious since both the reasoning and the premises of the argument may be wrong, and that the argument was made by a famous person doesn't change that.
I think you'll find it's not actually an argument at all. It's the title of an article linking to the argument, which you haven't read.
You're the one who seems to be filled with propaganda, unlike you I have no illusions of magical Utopian societies that we somehow always fail to build. We're all a bunch of flawed pathetic bastards who often forget that in the end we're just a bunch of monkeys with slightly better brains.
. It's just shy of being as disgusting as cheering it on (which, for anyone secretly happy about it, is no different than the videos showing people cheer on 9/11, or any other shooting murderous tragedy).
Basically,
a. The bug is ancient
b. The bug affects loads of things, some of which are important
c. The bug has been fixed for some time by the guy named max, who has implimented a full DIB engine which hugely increases performance in certain situations and can be turned on and off, but it won't be committed by the wine approval people for cryptic reasons (this was the case about a year ago when I looked into it, might have changed now, but a scan of the comments suggests not)

Hey wait what.
It's killed Smalltalk with Friends, which I assume is some sort of web framework.
A skydive.

Would you stop a murder you saw in progress? That is how a pro-lifer sees abortions.
Aquinas? I think you mean Descartes.

No; Utopias are sunk by people who insist this.
I'm very sure that would have stopped them.

Like the Iraq War :D
I thought it was a sequel to Dances With Wolves.
I wouldn't want news from anywhere but the BBC, tbh.
And effect is a verb, too :D
This is clearly not a troll.

You call that a ridiculous wine bug? No, this:

is a ridiculous wine bug.
Women working?! *shakes fist*

I didn't have the link to hand earlier.
I have limited bandwidth and thus have to queue my torrents, you insensitive clod!
That is a standard. It's designed to replace Apple's iPod connector, which is arguably more flexible than USB.
Queue torrent of bullshit about wars and history. Atheists are just theists with a post-modern stick up their arse.
All the theists think you're a heretic and all the atheists think you're Christian : /
Pfft, you have no supernatural and he has some, and it's his lack of imagination?
