Yeah, because he will be the bitch of an embarrassment, for looking over my shoulder, on my private computer. ^^
As if I would have to be embarrassed. Ha. For what! For sex? What's next? Being embarrassed when someone catches you eating? Quote: "*turns head 90 degrees* With a Melon? Ewwww...."
Well. I press (in your layout in parentheses) Mod3-L (Caps-E) and Mod3-C (Caps-R), to get [ and ]. And I press Mod3-H (Caps-U) and Mod3-G (Caps-I) for < and >. So for me, it's pretty much the same. (I also have a second Mod3 key, where your QUERTY layout has the "toes" of the return key "foot". So I can use both hands.)
Whaddaya think? That I thought that you learn newton's (outdated by the way ^^) laws from playing super mario. For real??? I can't decide if you are so stupid that you really think I could possibly mean it that way, or if you just are a smart spin doctor, who twists everything until he can attack it.
Ok, enable your brain, because this is going to be hard for you: Imagine a game, where you can learn the mathematics and physics (formulas, how you use them, and how it all works) while still not being cheesy but actually fun and thrilling. Can you? Because I can.
Ok, I am a professional game designer, so I may have an advantage here. But believe me, if you give it some time and study, you can absolutely come up with something like that. The only reason it isn't done right now, is because it would be too hard on players, who are not used to solving equations every day. But you do in in school, for years. So why not make a game that expects stuff that is *that* hard. If you either start very easy, or know that your players are already good at that, and therefore, they will be in perfect balance between to hard and too easy... you will have a working game. (I recommend adding a story that they can relate to, a teamwork aspect, and a good portion of humor. Like a good action adventure.)
Well, then you would have loved the story that happened in Spain. They had a centralized system. Imagine four towers, one for every quarter of the whole country, and a fence around it. Some guys thought it would be fun, no climb over the fence in the middle of the night, and hack/saw the towers off. One at a time the whole telecommunication of the country went black. Of course, they got caught. But hey, by then it was a bit late. ^^
And this was not the only epic failure down there. Apparently all last mile nodes (something like that) in the whole country used the same password. A friend of mine opened such a node with a key from the hardware store, connected his laptop to the serial interface he found inside, and got a login prompt. Now he started a dictionary attack, and locked the laptop inside the box. The next day, he came back and saw that had full access. From then on it was: Free phone/Internet connections 24/7. He also told me that the password was the same everywhere. But I have nothing to prove it. (I believe him though.)
Hmm... This would give you an empty list. So it would definitely not compile, but complain about not all cases being handled. But the missing case could easily be added with
analyze [] = []
Of course, you would then have to handle this is the code following the last line in "main" too.
Man does not need God. God does not need religion. Religion does not need churches.
The reason churches exist, has nothing to do with religion, and even less with God. But it has everything to do with power and control. The Arabic terrorists are blind followers of doctrines, doing evil. And the same is true for every person that is working for a church. (You can do your social job, without spreading lies about reality and fearmongering about hell (=doing evil), to catch the weak and delusionable.)
I respect people who use God as their protection from becoming crazy because they can't explain where everything comes from. Same as I respect people like me, who use the big bang for the same thing. The question still stands, and probably will always stand, that it's still open, where God or the big bang came from,and existed in. What that has to do with living by crazy unreasonable rules, because someone told you a lie about you getting to hell if you don't, only psychologically ill people will think to understand.
Truce's Parents write "Just before midnight on Thursday, April 22, unidentified attackers climbed up four firehoses on the geeky IT site of Slashdot and spread eight fearmongering exaggerations in what appears to have been an organized attack on the social infrastructure of an American community. Its implications, though startling, have gone almost un-reported. So I decided to change that."
main = do
audio <- loadAudio "someAudio.wav"
let safeAnalyzersChain = mkAnalyzer audio
analyze safeAnalyzersChain
Of course this is verbose and not optimized, because I am still a Haskell amateur. And of course this program will never end, because I am not an idiot. ^^ But if you change the second last line to
let safeAnalyzersChain = take n (mkAnalyzer audio)
where "n" is the number of analizers you think are enough, it should end.
...and then you realize, that YouTube changed the algorithm, and that its compression makes your song sound so shitty anyway, that you actually want all the uploads to be taken down. ^^
Yes. Thank EA for the change of concept. They sit on the -- I hate to say that dirty word -- IP, and do nothing. Which probably is the best they can do. Imagine EA raping the name System Shock.
I think it went like the typical way every product goes down the toilet: - Business guy: We want all people in our target group. This is too hard on them. Make it simpler. - Development guy: But then it will suck. - Cash guy (boss): Well, you wanna keep your job, do you?
Problem is, that the boss got too greedy, and forgot about the long term. Because in the long term, it is better to not make that much money, than to not be able to sell the game after that at all. And don't think the boss will not take every rant about Bioshock 1, from every retard, to argue, that it has to become even simpler. The good arts are the ones, where the artist(s) did not care for target group appeal anyway, but followed on their own feeling of good and bad.
Of course, this is all pure speculation. But you are welcome to bookmark this comment, for when you played Whatevershock 4, and know what happened. You might or might not agree when you will read this:
It's stunningly amazing, how you are able to pull all this out of your nose, after reading 3 paragraphs, and seeing a trailer...
How about first playing it, and then judging it?
I, for one, have full confidence in them hitting the right creepy spot that they did hit since System Shock 1. Of course, they had to dumb it down, for all the retards out there, or just because their marketing/sales division or their money source thinks we all are retards. But I tend to look at the feeling this games give me. You know. Emerge (well, in this game, literally), turn the light of, play long parts without breaks, and only eat, sleep or go to the toilet when you could in the game.
Try that with System Shock 1 or 2, and you will be in for a date with your shrink. ^^

I don't care about Godwin's law. Just tell me why this fits so well... (Of course I do not say with this, that the gravity of the Holocaust is even remotely on the same level as this thing. But... you know what I want to say. It's just not funny anymore.)
Well, who do you think *created* God, raised and fed that little retard for 2000 years, before he could create his first universe? (And a crappy one too.)
Author's right does. But hey, 'e's dead. Remember. *Copy*right* is the right of the publisher. The one who wants to give the creator even less. And the one that has no reason to exist in these days, but fights hard for what's left of his life. ^^
Didn't Einstein say, that it's a wonder, that creativity and free thought survives modern school systems, or something like that?
I, for one, think that games are the better education. Schools focus nearly entirely on the left hemisphere of the brain. And some sports. Well done games (and this includes things like team sports) require social skills, quick reflexes, creativity in problem solving, fitness, analytical skills, etc, etc, etc. Everything you do in a school, can be told trough games. But not everything you do in games, can be learned at school. Plus, games are by definition motivating and fun. There's a huge theoretical part, about how to motivate the player the most, and get him to higher and complexer tasks, while still being fun.
I think, good games (including those that you play outside and with friends, and those where you really learn something), will be essential in the future education of our kids. Of course, completed with good parenting -- The foundation that makes everything else work in the first place.
But it will always be easier for retards, to just blame a scapegoat. Rock'n'roll, games, drugs, TV, whatever you want. Oh, and if you want a "straight sitting, quiet, always just working on his homework" kid, get a blow-up doll or a robot.
Luckily, we do not have to follow all this. Because we know better. And we hope, that some day in the future, our kids will rule the world, while their kids will be rolling the dumpsters, if you know what I mean. ^^

Nah. Already outdated. Now it's "YouTweet"
But only bearded "terrorists" and Stallman-lookalikes use that unit!
Which one are you?? Hmmm...?
...it is a danger, that someone on an Intel system, who has root access to a box, can plant a rootkit??
Unpossible! The sky falls down, and earth explodes! I can't believe it!
Simple. Make it a recursive loop.
In Haskell you would do it like this:

According to the string theories (the leading theories on strings like cables :P), they did not make that sure. ^^
Yet, you still all got it wrong. ^^
They got directional signal markings. It's what electrons crave.

I have to agree. The browser went from just another Internet service client to the inner platform antipattern. (Also on Wikipedia.)
Well, who do you think *created* God, raised and fed that little retard for 2000 years, before he could create his first universe? (And a crappy one too.)
A priest, a rabbi, and a terrorist
Isn't that redundant somehow?
Should we tell the parent poster about there being porn on the Internet?
