The rule is: The only words you can't legally spread, are lies. Because they actually damage someone's life/reputation/etc. See it as subtracting from normal state: 0 - x
But what these companies do, is keeping up an artificial false view of them, and sue anyone who tries to tell the truth. Like a child rapist saying "I'm a really good person with children. And I sue anyone who disagrees!". See it as removing the addition to normal state: 0+x-x (where the first 1 is their lies, and the second one is the correction to get to reality again.)
Or in one simple sentence: Who's the lying bastard!
Now the logical rule, coming from this, is: When you can punish someone, for spreading lies about you, others can sue you, for spreading lies about themselves. (Assuming the lies resulted in harming the other side.) You can't have one without the other. Which is an interesting thought. And I think the law for it, is called "fraud". Isn't it?
So if they sue you for revealing the truth, you can sue them back with a class action suit, for harming everyone with their lies.
Oh, and I bet, your definition of "healthy" includes people who are fat, eat next to no species-appropriate food (and rather preparations of chemistry-like purity of sugars and engineered chemicals), take meds / smoke / drink coffee / etc as if it were candy and *need them*, etc.
Sorry, but any single one of those alone already makes you non-healthy.
I bet, the "laughably mild" refers to a normal, healty person of a good age.
The "More children have died from it in the last 3 months then die all year from seasonal flu." is an outright lie. I have seen the statistics. And H1N1 does not even come close! Normal flu kills more than 10 times the number of people.
H1N1 is dispropotionally bad for fat and weak (young,old,otherwise unhealty) people. Especially combinations of those. I am also pretty round. And I still think, that it's actually even a good thing, that it creates a disadvantage for those types. It's the same as a lion, endangering those who are weakest the most, and through that, being essential for the long-term health of the species he eats.
You see right now, how the lack of natural selection affects a species. With human ability to reproduce falling more and more. And people needing more and more "healthcare" to even be able to live a normal life. Soon we won't be able to reproduce and live at all, without tons of machines and pills keeping us alive at every second.
I recommend choosing a very low difficulty level. For realtime games, slowing down time can help just as well. E.g. Quake 4 on 50% speed, will actually be a pretty fun challenge for a brain that is 50% impaired.:)
It's the lack of balance that makes you not enjoy it.
Of course, when you're shaking, and barely can move, or open your eyes, the lack of a difficulty level that is low enough, may be the problem.;)
Multiple times every year, a big percentage of the people get some strain of the flu. The normal flu had way bigger "pandemics" than any H1N1. Nothing happened. It's just the flu. We know it. We can handle it. Done.
What this is really about, is the media, blowing stuff up, creating "contoversies", until any communications medium bursts, shutting themselves off. Well, there's a simple solution for that one: Stop being such greedy bastards! Which means: Stop creating so much drama, just to get more viewers and make more money. Or in other words: Stop stuffing youself over what the mechanism can hold.
On the other hand, seeing the "traditional" (money4drama) media break completely down, would be a really cool thing to happen.
Simple. The legal principle of "when you cave to another one's reality, you are bound to follow it". Meaning, that when you let others decide what is right and wrong, and how the rules are, then they will decide. And they will decide in favor of them, of course.
The real question it: Why do millions of people actually ask a handful of bullies how the rules are, and why? Of course they will come up with a rule that makes sense in their logic/reality. So when you follow that one, you are bound to follow that too.
Don't. Simple as that. And being in the minority is no excuse. The rebels in Germany, Korea, etc also do not care that they are in the minority. That's why they will be the leaders of tomorrow: Having the strongest reality. Being the most secure in his system of values.:)
What planet do they live on? I haven't used anything of those for years. When I buy them, I buy them digitally. If they are not available digitally, I don't buy them, but get them elsewhere. Simple as that.
It's the usual pattern. Greed leads them to believe, that they could simply replace professional experienced people with newbies, and get the same quality. And if you tell them that you absolutely can't, they either close their eyes like children, stomp their foot on the ground, and say "Make it anyway! I don't care for the rules of physics!" (A result of always getting what they wanted, and now expecting it. And something that has to be broken as early and clearly as possible!), or they fire you right away, and get a new one, until they find someone who will "make it so".
Most managers are like that: They are actually more childish and less grown up. Because they did not have to.
Well, saying that 37 of these boxes (or perhaps just 17), at a price of $537203 (or just $246823) can beat a system that fills a whole hall, has 129600 cores, and certainly costs a fortune, is pretty impressive, no?
But you are right. And I guess by then, the definition of "supercomputer" will have changed to >1 petaflop.
Virtual reality? More like real dorkness. ^^ - This is neither 3D or stereo, - nor has it an acceptable viewing area or - resolution. Also it has - no fitting 3D sound, - does not allow any movement outside the street view paths, and very importantly, - has no time dimension (nothing moves, or happens, in that frozen world).
Sorry, but gluing a phone to your face does not make it VR goggles, just like building a spaceship bodywork around your mountain bike will not get you into orbit. ^^
In that case a nice mix of pulverized fresh dollar bills, gun polish, a hint of luxurious shoe or marble polish, in a base of your favorite alcoholic drink, should help.:)
If you like to go for more action, one can add a bit of blood, sweat, tears and gunpowder.
Peter: I think you are a fu-HALT, FULL STOP. EXCEPTION ERROR. ALTERNATE VALUE -n person and a brilliant leader!
You call that getting out of trouble? Do you really not see the long-term effects of this behavior?? I call that "trouble". And you fully deserve being treated that way, for acting like this. Protip: If you don't learn to say "NO", you'll end up as a slave. But hey, it's nothing bad for me. In fact it strengthens me if I can exploit you. So please, keep on doing it!
Son: Hey dad, what's an erection?
And what's your problem with that one? Tell him, for god's sake. We're not in the dark ages anymore!
and then say, "See, the world didn't end afterall."
You have no idea how that really works, do you? ^^ I know how it works, because I was there. In the 80s. On a end-of-the world camp. With my mother. We sat in a tent, had a bonfire with kumbaja-singing, bongo drumming, ate out of a tajine... and when it was time, and nothing happened......people simply decided that they must have been wrong in their calculations, decided for a new future date, and continued what they always did.
Schizophrenia (even the mild one, called superstition or religion) can't be healed by blatant in-you-face facts. Because schizophrenia is by definition a disease where you are detached from reality, and deduce everything from a inner reality. The reason is, that the outside world became too horrible to bear, without falling into a state close to brain death. It's a emergency state (that became constant).
And the only help, is to again make reality more inviting and tempting than their inner world, and offer them a way out that lets them keep their self-respect. (E.g. by allowing them to say that they always did the right thing, and weren't crazy. But that now they do something even better than before.)
As this is usually really hard, modern society has given up, or thinks that that human is not worth the effort, and just throws pills into them, so they get "out", but at the same time lose a important part of their personality, because of the brain-wide all-eradicating air fuel bombs that these pills are. (Lobotomy light, one could call them.) It's easy to fall into the circular reasoning, that a person is not worth that huge effort, because he is such a "worthless, crazy" person (,...because he is ill, because nobody helps him out of it!!)!
In terms of psychology, we're still in very dark ages. We see the light in the distance. But it's still a long way to go.
The sooner the loonies panic, the sooner they will commit ceremonial suicide! This was our unique chance to finally get rid of them! We were so close! And you had to extend it to 2220??:(
Uum, then how does a DLL load its dependencies in the first place? Of course it's build it. There's just no UI delivered with it. I bet at MS, they have such a tool.

Probably yes.

Yeah, as long as that everyman can afford $14,519 for crunching purposes...
For that price I'd build myself a real virtual reality gaming room.
