Bernard Lewis wrote a book "What Went Wrong?" which described precisely (in his opinion) how Islam became the backward group when during the Dark Ages they were the advanced group and Europeans were the backwards ones.
After the Muslims started to lose battles to Vienna, one of the caliphates ordered his advisors to come up with a report on why they were losing.

I've always written it as:-). I've been on the net since 93. Back since in the days when you NEVER wanted to meet anyone who actually used the internet in real life.
I used to live on San Ramon and Middlefield (Shadows apartments). Moffett field was where President Bush landed Air Force One when he came to speak in San Jose.
It's a big hangar where they used to (I think) work on Space Shuttle parts back in the 80s. All I can say is this: they never let Larry Ellison land his plane there. That says a whole lot. (The big story back in the early 2000s was Larry violating noise ordinances at San Jose airport.)
Set settings to medium and got about 30 fps sometimes but was 20 a lot. Turned of the graphics option related to shadows and vsync - and get 30-50 fps. Tried turning textures back to high and it dropped and stuttered a litle; mid 30s with some dips.
Clearly if you ratchet it down it's smooth and still looks good enough.
I have a laptop with a 7900gs, the thing burns disks. Thank god securerom doesn't think my machine is evil enough to install the DRM service. I don't mind having the unremovable keys and files on my PC as long as i'm playing the game.
By the way, there's an easier way to delete the files under appdata.
Type "at/next 9:02pm c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe/interactive" after looking at the clock and seeing it's 9:01am. Wait until 9:02 and you'll get a dos prompt running as the machine account. Go delete your files.
In 1994 I had about 40 million drug test results on my 486-50 woo hoo! (I was writing a Microsoft Access program for the guy.)
Anyway, I did a GROUP BY sic code and drug, descending frequency. The highest was construction workers, pot and cocaine. The second highest was school employees, alcohol. This doesn't mean who does what -- this means who gets busted for what in the tests, very different. Everything else was non-clustered.
BTW, the guy had the hottest girls for reception and collecting specimens. I think he hired girls who didn't pass the tests to work for him. Fun girls;-)
I wrote some C# Visual Studio addins and tried to upload them to codeplex. The only GPL license choice was gpl2, but I put in the comments "don't download this if you don't accept GPL3." Some code-monkey unpublished it because the license didn't match the chosen license - but GPL3 wasn't an option!
Whenever I move somewhere the first thing I do is call and get a new internet. It used to take about 6 weeks but now it only takes a couple of days. I'm living out here by the lake now so my internet got installed by some redneck but he did an okay job, my internet is fast enough.
How about commercial framework + BSD apps? Or should I just classify everything as commercial and give away the source to the apps under some ambiguous license.
The point is I want to keep the good bits just for me but I don't care if other people use my stuff.
I'm writing a framework for Windows Services and Apps in C#. I want to keep the source code to the libraries "commercial," and make the four sample apps I write to test it with LGPL3.
I own the copyright to everything. Can I do this?
(I know it's OT but I don't want to go register on a list just to ask one GPL question.)

Problem in Chair, Not In Computer. PICNIC.
That's the phrase I heard used to describe this condition.

You can't compare any scores because it's all been rebased to be meaningless.
Back then, a 1400 really meant something, and a "perfect" score was a one or two person thing.
Well, it's not like anyone else would date him.

I had to do some EBCDIC encoding in C# just the other day!

How about a Linux-based installer for Windows?
I love to be honest, when I thought of "coveted landing strip" the first thing I thought of was not a runway! ahem ahem ahem

I just wanted to pipe up and vote for LeeNooks, the way Linus used to pronounce it back in 1991.
I have a four-digit UID:

but I can't remember the password! That's why I created this guy.
Wow, and all it takes is every half-a-fag in the universe behind you and you're bigger than... Gateway!
Look out!

18-20 fps using out of box settings. But it's pretty. I'll have to crank things down and maybe I can get 30.
Downloading it now. Let you know in a few hours.

Just for the record, I'm definitely exagerating the number 40 million. Probably something like 40,000.

So I won't host it there.

People in Alaksa don't pay taxes. The government PAYS people that live in Alaksa to live there. I'm moving to Alaksa, along with all the other losers.
I don't think I'll make it as far as Alaksa. Probably stop in British Columbia.
The multiple versions of Messenger were what got me laughing. "MSN Messenger" and "Windows Messenger". You had to have both for some dumb reason.
