    Actually I was taking a bite at Americans for at one point talk about economic freedom and at the other time whine about people abusing the freedom.

    Really hasnt got anything todo with america itself, however Fedex is widely regarded as a very american company. Thats reason enough for me and about 1 billion more people to spend my money elsewhere ;)

    Yeah, wouldn't a factory printing books have been a better investment here?

    I have a couple of neighbours here (sweden) that are developing a light for usage in faraway villages in africa, they charge during the day in the sunlight, and can then light up the night. However, a slight problem being noticed, is the fact that the africans doesn't want the light on at the night, cause.. its night.

    Dont buy a book about PHP AND MySQL.

    Seriously, buy one for each one of them.

  14. Re:And let me guess...... on Microsoft to Release AJAX Framework · · Score: 1

    Most programmers know that happens when you code in a real language, like C or ASM.

    What you describe is very common to people using highlevel languages which leave little controll over the finer aspects of computer interaction to the programmer.

    And by the way, white on black is a no-no in any design. Even Webdesign.

  15. Re:And let me guess...... on Microsoft to Release AJAX Framework · · Score: 2, Informative

    Lets face it;

    90% of the programmers in the MS area are morons. They are not interested in the higher aspects of computer science, nor do they give a shit about compability or efficient code. They care about one thing.

    Does it do what I want?

    This might sound fine and good to a lot of people, unfortunatly it isn't very so. We all remember the MESS frontpage created on the internet, zillions of so called webmasters broke the gates of pearls we had between THEM and US, the programmers. Now they're back, and they're punching with .NET and now this.

    Have anyone here LOOKED at what the Visual .NET platform produces when you use it to create a simple HTML-form? Let me tell you this my friends, its horrid, ugly and terrible. There was a time where I believed that .NET for the 'net perhaps was something MS had done right. Not so, Sir Willian.

  16. Re:Just what I need! on Impressive Benchmarks: Sorting with a GPU · · Score: 1

    Probably not, however if a GPU is available and you cna do your sort operation on it, and the sort operation would take long enough to hog the main CPU + that it wont occupy busses etc to much, you might end up gaining from it i suppose.

    (Given that the sort procedure is something that CAN be run in the background whilst the user is doing something else).

    I highly doubt that companies like Oracle or Google would benefit from using GPUS in large scale instead of CPUS...

  17. Re:Just what I need! on Impressive Benchmarks: Sorting with a GPU · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Sorts are very common in applications and _can_ be slow. In a future where everyone has a GPU this can effectivly serve as a dual processor setup. Just as the FPU helped us 10 years ago with floating point operations.

    Well, also remember that paypal charges a fee (x2) for chargebacks. First you as the client has to pay for recieving the 1300, then you have to pay 2.5% (or whatever it is) again.

    I lost 150 usd this way. Not to mention the 2000 i lost for being ripped of by my "customer".

    Paypay might have it reasons, it doesnt stop them from sucking. Big. Donkey. Balls.

    Firstly, this article is a dupe, (it has been covered on slashdot earlier, trustrank and stuff.. balbla).

    Secondly, IF the statment about the "1 year registreation" were true alot of legitime sites would be caught since they do what MOST registrars do; register for one year and prolong when its about to expire.
