If greenpeace was told to shove it to the arctic, an 250+ nuke plants were allowed to be built without any hippies stopping it, then that would solve all your pollution problems. France has 70% of their power from reactors, time to do it too. Because WAKEUP , COAL is POISON, but plentiful, and I dont see clean coal plants on the horizon being built.
Dude, Climate change is all bolony created to reduce the usage of OIL because OIL is running out, read peakoil.com and lifeaftertheoilcrash.com
1. Would you rather see a sharp reduction in supply causing mass starvation and panic and 500% inflation? or 2. Fake climate change, make people feel guilty and reduce usage so supply reduces more slowly, causing 10-15% inflation as it is now.
We still need oil, its needed for food & high speed high capacity transport, but we need to find alternatives fast at 4% per year replacement rates else we're gona run out or go postal when its $100/gallon. You will see all horses taken off betting tracks and used for transport again.
Why is this happening? probably because the planet cannot handle >100million barrels of oil usage a day, (THATS A HUGE NUMBER!!) and its running out fast, watch those fields drop in pressure and supply fast, they will fake some accident to cover up reduced supplies too.
Demand is growing, no thanks to China & India.
Whats another way? reduce populations.... and not over 50 years, but over 10 years, because at 4% per year more needed, thats 40% in 10 years which = 6 Saudi Arabias which DONT EXIST.
More like they set their initial target using GPS, but ongoing realtime telemetry would use inertial based calculation, with GPS as a backup/check. Otherwise all an enemy needs to do is launch a few high alt balloons transmitting bogus GPS data.
I did suggest 18 months ago it only has one chance to survive, if Toshiba gave it away or payed MS to put it inside EACH xbox360 for zero cost, ie $30 overhead.
So instead of loosing $250m 1 year ago, they are loosing it now. Tip for toshiba, if your marketing sucks copy the competitor, asap quickly.
Thats about 0.5% of the market, and because they are so small, I bet Matrox makes damn sure their drivers are good to not piss of their base. But there are like 10 variations in intel embedded gfx chips, so we can possibly blame intel.
Would it make more sense to keep selling at a loss, even if it is $30, because then that person will buy 5-6 games in the year making up for the loss 10x. Consider each small loss, a 1000% investment. They can print billions of BR games, at $1ea.
If you can magically sell 2x more hardware thats a win, if you can make 2x more from your factory.
I hope those developers are so smug and superior that they dont read this website. I hope their friends do and say, "yo Mark, people are bagging apple engineers"
So you, fix your shit, be OS neutral and know how each OS works by default. Its frickin easy, just use a damn machine for 48hrs installing 20 shareware/commercial apps.
One minor utterly cruddy feature of iTunes installer, the installers main IMAGE used is resized to larger desktops really badly, like they are clueless in resizing an image/raster object. One easy tip dudes, read GDI documentation, you want a free time, learn the params to stretchblit() , or wow, even use a 30 line smooth raster resizer. Dont tell your product manager/boss that your fixing this because he will say, "its not important", but he is 50 years old with bad eyes.
They really think doing 100 updates, and 12 reboots is ok? Get real, maybe if you work for ms and want to waste 3 days work not working. If I was bill gates, I would walk right into the OS group and say, "listen MOFO loosers, make a single one time update for all fucking patches under 100meg, no online wizards"
I think Bill Gee has a personal IT ass-sistant keeping his top of the line laptop always ready & working. If only Billy knew how shit his OS was. This goes to a few linux distros too, stop this madness 5.1 6.1 7.0 8.1 every 6 month, just update a.1 DVD ISO every 3months for gods sake, and up its number. Major release numbers should ONLY be needed if the kernel changes.
Im sure if coders spent more time learning how a cpu works, they could achieve 16 cpu quality out of 4 cores, now if you stop writing crap in java and.net you can get 64 cpu quality out of c++ in 4 cores. Sure, I agree many solutions dont need it since they are crappy little tools that never use much cpu, but may use lots in doing simple things like making thumbnails out of 24 images.
Im glad we've hit the wall on Ghz, it means these java/.net programmers cant assume in 3 years time their software will be faster, it will be slow-assed FOREVER!
Any one see a java/.net bytecode VM written in RAW AMD micro cpu code? Nahhhhhh! bad luck.
The bible was right, but it wasnt a historical book, it was a prediction of the future.
And our garden of eden has been taken over by 10000000000 snakes called LAWYERS giving us ROTTEN apples to all the EVES.
Wake up women! And you spermless men who eat too much soy.
The govt likes to keep every one busy WORKING to pay OUR credit card debt so we have NO TIME for any REVOLUTION!
I say fuck em all, especially those pension funds, dont pay a cent back to the banks, watch it all fall. Fight club was right on!
The fractional reserve banking system is dead, US is bankrupt, with those cable cuts to Iran, something fishy is coming.
"We see that the Federal Reserve's H.3 Reserves of Depository Institutions shows that for the last week of January, both on a seasonally adjusted and not seasonally adjusted basis, all the financial reserves (required reserves to support the fractional banking system) were negative. In other words, the fraction in fractional reserve has disappeared."
No one said its 100% cash, thats a lot of trucks, or even excel spread sheets of cash.
But I have a better 44 billion investment for MS.
1. buy EMI 2. buy $15b worth of Exxon, those dividends alone will yield HUGE rewards. 3. buy $15b worth of gold to preserve value with the US$ falling.
I wonder where Warren Buffet is in all this, he controls/runs Bills personal foundation with another $35b. He has said himself (heard it on financialsense.com podcast) that they will keep investing and make money, but spend enough to keep the total value static or slightly increasing.
oanda.com check the currency vs euro/gold. That 44billion is worth $25b in the year 2000. That goes to all you americans holding shares in usa, you would have done better in euro cash + gold.
These days, how can they not afford 2-3 people being on call after hours to fix things remotely. If they cannot then they are cheaper than a used car sales yard.
Or is all infrastructure in usa falling apart like the soviet union in 85?
They simply cannot stand to just let it be and not be in some market somewhere, they have to do everything and everywhere. See IBM doesnt do this, you dont see IBM mice or IBM mp3 players, IBM consoles. They are smarter, they are the suppliers of many technologies, and thus will make money no matter who wins or looses.
Cannot MS just give and not compete in everything that it gets a fancy off, they just cannot stand any one else being successful in IT. They are the MAFIA of IT.
Dude, the US dollar has slowed markedly in the past 6months 12 months and 4 years. Duh... if the US$ falls 60%, then obviously their Euro/UK profits can be static and thus translate in US$ terms into a large rise. Ofcourse US corporations increase their foreign retail prices as this happens to even more maximise the falling sales/profits inside USA.
Same goes for MOST US corporations. This is how the FED is helping the stock market rally or keep static compared to 2001 rates. Shrink the dollar, ramp up external currency profits. Meanwhile everyone outside usa who has foolishly bought tbills/bonds etc.. have seen not only a 10-20% fall in value, but their returns in interest be pathetic compared to local cash rates. But the banks/govt still buy them so as to keep their currencies not appreciating too much against the dollar. So , they are willing to loose $10-$100billion in investments to prevent a potential export/GDP loss of $500billion or more. Its pure and simple market manipulation. Just like Gordan Brown was stupid to sell billions in gold at $240po from the BoE, when he could have waited and sold now at slower intervals and made 4x more profits. His and his bankers were only interested in keeping the price of gold DOWN, so as to make sure the US$ doesnt fall too fast downwards, but more orderly so most people don't notice.
You'de think the DOJ would be kinda to common folk, oh you defraud the IRA of $450k, ahh who cares... they will get it back any way as you spend it, it eventually gets to the IRA, unless you take it out of usa.
Id like to see billion $ fines for corporations, and less than $100 fines for citizens if they copy 10000gig of mp3s.
5. Americas enemies will use paper & cdrom delivery methods for communications, slower but secure.
If they want secure direct comms, just call the #1 communists on the planet, China and ask for a secure sat link for $9.95/minute.
6. Its not hard to wrap a VPN on top thats triple encoded with keys changing every 60seconds. Im sure the russians can aid in some land based wifi type comms with repeaters every 5 miles.
Sure its not cheap, but damn cheaper than your own sat.
I guess this operation is to stop all the minor lower level cells/operatives from communicating effectively.
There are serious stupid bugs in vista that even shareware amatures do not make. Its a problem of too many cooks.
Btw, the security policy editor is not available in vista basic, thats another MS cock up, too many versions, just stick with two. Home & Business/pro. I hope MS gives a free upgrade to home premium to all basics and business to ultimate.
Drag a file to a samba share that you have no write permission to (thats another story) and bang, your cpu usage goes up to 100% and it just sits there.
Seriously, did MS just hire 1st year grads from mexico to make vista? Utter, utter sub standard testing and programming. If you have vista programmer at MS in your resume, consider your prospects poor.
Slashdot Mirror
no one is stopping you from selling your shares now into cash, and using that cash to buy MSoft.
Though a better investment is to use the cash to buy 40% gold, 20% silver, and 40% Exxon/Shell stocks. OIL is #1, good dividends, and low ratio.
If greenpeace was told to shove it to the arctic, an 250+ nuke plants were allowed to be built without any hippies stopping it, then that would solve all your pollution problems.

Id say a fake test, made to fail, so they can go ask for another 100billion in fony funding.
Afterall , if it works well, there's no need for more funding/testing is there.
Its going to fail REAL REAL WELL!!!

I cannot name or find one person (unless they financially benefit) that likes MS.
Its like someone loving their income tax assessor agent from the govt.
