    But I thought we were still using Intel 80386SX chips in NASA cause apparently radiation hardening takes decades, but yet a consumer grade phone is fine?

    that wasnt my intent... yes I understand nothing is free, but I will be dammed if I am going to make them a profit while handing them a design they will freely steal and continue to make profit while driving my efforts down the drain

    I am on the exact opposite side of that coin, but I prefer to not to add a buzzword to stuff I do, also the stuff I do tends to not be "look AT me! Buy my wares!", but helping people understand things to get whatever their awesome idea is up and going.

    I tend to think helping people is far better than being a nerd pop star for a day, while tossing a noobie an "open source" board that doesnt make any more sense to them than their NES does

    no, I am pretty sure I started the topic with NASA as the first acronym, please feel free to prove me wrong

  19. Re:NASA must be pissed on Construction of ESA Galaxy Mapping Satellite Completed · · Score: 1

    computers existed before NASA by a number of years
    foodstuffs not gathered in the wild is cultivation, and there are plenty of people who might lay claim to that before NASA
    The Greeks had woven fabric, synthetic development was during WWII for military reasons
    When you throw rocks at bigger rocks you break them, it might help your grasp on reality
    and that fire bit is amusing considering a lot of people tend fires in their lives daily, whether its a pilot light for the furnace or a fire out side of a tent

    Thanks NASA for computers, food cultivation, food canning/freezing, woven fabric, nylon fabric, physics, and fire!

    Did we miss any?

    what feeds this feeling is the fact that "they" act like the entire universe just broke unless "you" drop every fucking thing right that second just to find out their wifi dongle was un-plugged, so its understandable (to a point)

    linux users defiantly, windows users not so much, they are usually busy getting work done on their pc's to care (if you discount the gamer crowd) vs nerds spending weeks trying to get a driver to compile, or simpletons shoving their iWilly in your face cause they think its impressive that in 2011 you can play video on a pda
