    As I've written previously it would feel very weird to call someone "it" but I'll try anyway.

    BTW don't be ashamed for being mentally ill, mental health problems are pretty common and people are more accepting these days.

    Only _real_men_ count: homosexual men living in segregated male communities count, isn't that obvious? All others are cucked feminine soyboys or so the Internet tells me.

    At least try to write a good post! Maybe AmiMoJo is right for once and men can't write?

  4. Nice post. Now how exactly is that story related to this one? If you like to rant, fine, but the irresponsibility of parents/children of the time is a favorite complaint since documented history leading to the logic conclusion that there have never been any responsible people except Adam.

    Also the parents weren't involved here, maybe take that into account?

    Congratulations on not following simple explanations, the ad hominem attack was nice too.

  6. I guess you are using the Dvorak layout?

  7. That "asshole with guns" was referring to a piece of shit that killed innocent people over bullshit.

    So you really think it's better to murder people than being weaponless?

  8. Re:Seriously, America. on Mass Shooting Reported at Madden Video Game Tournament in Florida (polygon.com) · · Score: 1

    I just don't understand your angle here. Are you trying to be sarcastic about both mass shootings and freedom of the press, or are you seriously deluded and actually believe what you just wrote?

    With the easy access to public discussion forums on the Internet exposing the thoughts of deranged people I just don't know anymore. :(

  9. And if you think that's the problem I'm fairly confident you are dumb.

  10. Re:'This is Not Your Father's Microsoft' on Microsoft Hit With US Bribery Probe Over Deals in Hungary (wsj.com) · · Score: 1

    So MS of old is associated with bribes and corruption in your mind? Of all the shit they've done during the years I can't remember one instance of corruption pissing me off. Abuse of their (near) monopoly? Several cases. Spreading FUD and lies about competition? Of course. Patenting obvious stuff? Natürlich.
    This is different to what have made me angry about Intel in the past, there company approved "payoffs" to ensure their market dominance have been more of a general trend.

    With the limited information available I'm not even sure MS is more that peripherally involved, yes it's about MS products and MS employees however did MS approve or even profit from this?
    My understanding is that MS Hungary sold discounted software to Hungarian companies that in turn sold it to the government earning a good profit in the process, but how is MS as a company gaining from such an arrangement? MS employees and government persons getting bribes sure, but how does MS itself earn more than by simply making a deal with the government itself? IMO as told so far it doesn't add up.

    One of the exploits is essentially impossible to protect against without removing performance, one have never existed (Meltdown) and the rest is generally hard to exploit on Ryzen.
    You are of course right, I'll dump my computers as soon as I get this abacus on the Internet...

    Can I ask what smartphone(s) you have then? IIRC OoO execution for smartphones came ca 2008 and phones not having it now is generally called feature phones, could be wrong though.

    The few situations when the CPU is the bottleneck and the task can't be parallelized can practically be ignored IMHO.
    For gaming that is - there are plenty of real stuff where single thread performance is important.

    That's how one does it. If one doesn't come to a meeting unless there are special circumstances (like getting killed or perhaps a tiny bit maimed at an accident) one is an absolute asshole.
