    Carbon Dioxide emitted by ignorant 'muricans has been scientifically proven to be the only cause of asthma. Scientific leader John Kerry said so and shall be deified along with Enviro God-Emperor GORE (holy be his name). Carbon Dioxide emitted by those who have been sanctified by GORE is harmless and leads to immortality (holy be the private jets of the enviro-elites who shall rule us).

    In fact, asthma didn't exist before nazi-Bush was elected and it's science that asthma disappeared during the reign of the Prophet Obama. If the martyred saint Hillary had ascended to her rightful Gawdhood then all the unbelievers would have been cleansed from the earth.

    Let any who deny the settled science of this post burn for their heresy (with proper holy carbon offset indulgences being charged).

    That's a great prepared talking point.

    It's not really true considering Paris has has bigger mass shootings in the last 2 years than have ever happened in the U.S. but go ahead and repost what you were told to write.

    The bigger issue here is: Every single mass shooting with a high death toll in U.S. history has exactly one thing in common: It happened in a liberal-enforced "gun free zone".

    What happened today is tragic, but the fact that there isn't a huge body count piling up has nothing to do with a feel-good-but-do-nothing gun control law and everything to do with the fact that the baseball diamond was not a gun free zone.

  5. Re:performance/price comparison? on Intel Announces X299, Skylake-X, and Kaby Lake-X Release Schedule (anandtech.com) · · Score: 0

    A 6 core 7800X at $389 is substantially cheaper than AMD's highest-end 1800X and don't expect "ThreadRipper" to be given away for free or to be a perfect chip given the latency issues that are inherent to AMD's architecture.

    Plus, a little overclocking is going to get that 7800X up to 4.5GHz without heartburn and more if you are adventurous. Oh, and AVX-512 sure as hell doesn't hurt either, especially for open source software that can adapt to it easily with support already baked in to major compilers.

    Funny how AMD is getting credit around here since they actually sued multiple mobile graphics companies for patent infringement this year: http://www.anandtech.com/show/...

    Incidentally, those companies are in absolutely no way trying to make "Radeon knockoff" parts that copy AMD's actual products. Hell, they aren't even competing in the same markets where AMD sells products since AMD ain't selling smartphone chips.

    But AMD sued anyway and not a peep from the "OMG patent troll!" crowd.

    The difference is that Intel is trying to prevent direct knockoffs of its own products here. Intel isn't running around suing anybody who makes an ARM chip for use with standard ARM software, it's (legitimately) trying to stop direct knockoffs that are basically reimplementing x86 architecture. If you want to whine about how that's "unfair" try making an ARM knockoff chip without paying up and see how far you get.

    I think this guy ran a program that misinterpreted some bytes in a binary since it's not really designed to be a general-purpose parser and then jumped to a really really dumb conclusion.
