It has had native support for alpha blending blitting since Windows 98. Translucent windows have been in there since Windows 2000.
As someone who's been working with them a lot recently - http://www.chrisseaton.com/software/software.php?s oftware=orselli - I can say they're pretty damn cool.
50 fps when blending a window half the size of the screen is typical in my (very heavy and as yet unoptmised) app - no flickering at all.
Sometimes I see things where all classes inherit from an "object" class, which inherits from a "structure" class, which inherits from a "somebytes" class et cetera ad inifitum
"You'll get over what ever shitty music you listen to"
I'm a tennager (18) and I wouldn't listen to almost any of those artists to save my life either. But it's not because I'm into some stupid phase of punk or insanely anrgy death rock - I only really listen to classical and some classical style chillout.
I don't think classical is something you "grow up" out of.
I've caused a stir on Slashdot with my choice of words before. I did apologise that time (and my karma did not suffer), but I shall not be aplogising this time.
As my peers have already flamed, this is slashdot, where there are much worse things than an insult (not actually profane) applied to someone who did seem to be lacking in the brain department.
This kind of language wouldn't be tolerated at my school either, but we're not at school, are we?
Do you apply this kind of sanction for every goatse.cx link, Portman joke or swear word? I've seen "nigger", "faggot" et cetera posted - but I've never seen you complain before. I see you are an old timer - you must have seen a lot worse around here, why did you feel the need to pick me out for a dressing down?

"Sensors on Andy S's Body capturing movement data and feeding it into a computer"
Yes... and then rendering the character on top of the real from using the motion capture info.
It's still realtime rendering.

My God! This is communism!
How about compulsory English lessons?
(checking spelling to avoid hypocrisy...)
I think you should lay down a clear TOS. With all the trouble recently, you should make everything transparent from the start.
I wasn't familiar with Rube Goldberg's work before this, but it looks like a carbon copy of Heath Robinson's style. Anyone agree with me here?

That's the problem with thresholds, but other people read it the same way I did. Anyway - I believe you are not a ped.
Look down the thread - AC said "Actually kiddie porn varies", I said the stigma was more serious, you said "we all do it".
The thread was clearly about child porn when you replied.
You'll notice that you confused several other people too: Another AC replied to you "Where do you live where 'we all' are collecting kiddie porn?"
What artists does Universal have?
"we all do it"
I don't know about you, but I DO NOT collect child porn, I think it's fucking serious that you think that "all" people do it.
I think the social stigma is much more serious.
Yeah - if the cops are looking for your porn, you've probably gone too far.
Nope. My sense of sarcasm is intact.
The poster I originally insulted was actually insulting someone else in the same way. Like you just did.
Retard.
Please don't tempt them...

I take it you were dropped on your head as a small child.
I hope that's mean't to be a joke, mate.
Apple is buying the record company - not the other way round.
Watch the spaces there, children.
"Will we even be writing programs in a hundred years? Won't we just tell computers what we want them to do?"
What the fuck? That's what a programming language is, and that's exactly what we do with them TODAY.
So why the hell didn't you prepare?!
"intellectual conversations" my arse
2it's just the non-Microsoft parts"
That's the opposite of the situation. It's just the Microsoft parts.
It's just the same as {"Hello,", "World"} in C.
Why not a function, anyway? Array initialisers takesinput and return something - sounds like a function to me.
