    i didn't say it was fixed. i said the potential of the written word was "AS FIXED" as the language it utilizes. are you saying that parts of language are NEVER fixed AT ALL? if so, then how would this sentence have any meaning to you AT ALL?

    MY POINT, was that moore's law has been effectively DOUBLING the potential of gaming systems every 2 years, while most languages potential changes very slowly... english for instance saw 17 new words in 2010 in the oxford english dictionary to complement the nearly 1 million existing words.

    you are really arguing that the potential of video game platforms is growing at the same or lower rate than language? 100% growth over 2 years vs. i won't even thank you for playing video games. you are retarded.

  2. Re:Patenting the patents? on Sony Developing 3D Screen-Sharing Technology For Two Players · · Score: 2, Insightful
    the patent isn't about changing the angles... it's about multiplexing the video signal another order of magnitude to allow 2 people to see different full screen images at the same time. i have an optoma HD66 project that supports HD 3D... i tried it out with the sony shutter glasses... it looked worse than avatar and was more uncomfortable/headache inducing... so the technology has to more than double just to get the same unacceptable results, and when you add in the fact that player 1 might be in a dark cave and player 2 might be standing on the sun, the bleed between frames and stress on the screen lighting systems will be large, perhaps insurmountable, additional hurdles.

    i'd rather just take the current 3d tech, hack the 3d glasses and make both eyes flicker in harmony so only player 1 sees frame 1 (throught both eyes) and only player 2 sees frame 2 (through both eyes)... should already be able to do 2 player full screen with current tech.

    no, that was the image originally posted here, that you, without being accused, quickly jumped in and pointed out "Those last two pictures were not posted by me, by the way"... BY THE WAY. and now you would insinuate that the exact opposite of what you claimed is true?

    the image that you posted under this account, stephen alongi, was originally posted here which includes this link to the offending image which has since been removed by tinypic after receiving the DMCA takedown notice that you dared me to post after claiming did not exist, and yet now the images have been removed... we'll see who the scummy fucking liar was.

    omploader has not been as expedient as tinypic in responding to my legal notices, obviously, and with no person to name in the charges, it is much more difficult to proceed with certain other legal options. are you now claiming that the picture you linked to was made by you and uploaded to the omploader service by you? the only image i have ever accused you of creating was the one you created under your clone53421 account.... but now, after you brought up the topic of images you've posted that i've accused you of infringing upon my copyrights, somehow you think that i'm talking about an image that you denied responsibility for, and know that i responded to your out of turn denial? did you forget that you didn't make that image?

    OR are you just too big of a kansas bible camper to post another similar image that infringes upon my copyrights in your name and take responsibility for the consequences?

    you are NOTHING

    (and somehow I think that Germany will allow private militias, not after the last time)

    i love the freudian slip. or do you really think germany will allow private militias? or do you just hope they will?

    So unless the copyright mafia wants to pay for its own enforcement then all this is dead in the water. The NSA might know that you are downloading the latest Harry Potter, but they won't do a damn thing about it.

    i most certainly am not downloading the latest harry potter, and last i checked, JK rowlings had over a billion dollars. the NSA budget is a relatively close 3.6 billion. they can both afford to get anything they want done... that's not like anything dead i've ever seen in any water.

    The logs they are speaking of is rather who customer got which IP lease for which date and time. Without those it's just an IP with no-one to charge. With them they got a real person.

    until that IP address is witnessed logging in to a facebook account or checking an email address or the 1000s of other ways traffic can be analyzed to pair requests up with real people.

    We must ensure those independent sources get legit information by protecting groups like wikileaks, zerohedge, etc.

    as hard as you think you need to work to ensure the sources get legit information, the people representing your counter-party will ensure they work harder to ensure the sources get non-legit information.

    the issue is not protecting the possibility of the truth from getting to journalists. the issue is with journalists reporting the truth. most journalists, especially online only journalists, have a tendency to incorporate themselves and their beliefs into their stories alongside speculation and rumor.

    i've built multiple instances of cloud architectures... generally it's not going to be much more complicated than it would be to describe how your datacenter(s) and database(s) and nodes are connected. generally the most optimization can be gained by adapting a specific application to the specific cloud architecture. there is probably a lot of vendor lock that comes free with this open source. i'm a fan of rolling your own in cases like this... it isn't very complicated, and you can add optimization cases specific to your application(s), and perhaps remove network calls or calculations that will never be referenced. it will take you just as long to hack away at the open source as it would to write it from scratch.
