    Yeah!
    Its also used for terribly engineered front end software and to slow down the most powerful supercomputer to a crawl because the guys that used it were too lazy to learn c++ and proper coding.
    Oh... developed for Object Oriented Programming you say? Well hell yeah... it only take 15 lines of code to say "Hello World!"
    WWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

    That used to be the case, but you guys are forgetting this is the 21st century.

    I love how you guys are debating parables.
    This douche put you on the defensive by questioning reality and truth over stories and faith.
    Clearly, if one does not understand science and the truth it provides, one will never be swayed.
    The reason no one takes this idiot up, is because the odds are in the houses favor, and he knows it.

    I can get around the start menu, I can get around the interface changes, I can even deal with the "control panel" not remembering my settings (I always have to select small icons), but until they fix Windows 8 to enable the reason for Windows existance, easy interface for multi-tasking... then they can literally fuck off.

    Cool cool...
    So this is why I pay extortion amounts of money for an OS that sucks balls every other release?
    Or how about my business paying for CALs on stupid shit that should come with the OS/Software I am working with?

    I am supposed to be paying for a better product and product updates, not to line the pockets of some jackass intent on jackassery.

    Also, he wasnt "ousted", and "fired" must mean something else to them, because March 30th is when he leaves.
    Sure, it might have been because of the Sim City issue, but one can only speculate. Slashdot is not the place for speculation.

  16. Re:The problem with most environmentalist ideas on Why Earth Hour Is a Waste of Time and Energy · · Score: 1

    To be clear, when people say "Saving the earth", they mean "Make sure it supports human life".
    To not interpret it as such means you are missing the whole point and concern people have about this issue.
    I have heard plenty of people state that they dont care about the environment, which means that they will do nothing to change their habits. Habits that in effect, harm the environment enouth to cause its destruction.
    It is ignorant to think that by simply living, we are not harming the environment.
    And it is ignorant to think that somehow a "Capitalistic market will save the environment, and everyone from overfishing, increased emissions causing increased heat, which causes drought, asthma, respiratory issues, and cancer."
    The fact is, if we rely on money as the driving factor to fixing our worlds declining ability to support human life, we will not be around much longer. As we all know, there is money in fishing and farming when supply is reduced and demand is increased, and there is money in the medical industry with dealing with these issues instead of fixing the cause.

    But lets be clear here, Walmart is doing everything to reduce costs so the family owners can scrape in more and give back less.
    If they could use employee tears to power their facility at a lower cost, you know they would.

    The difference is the manipulation is Corp vs Corp, with traces and links to sub corps or hired PR firms. Where in China... anyone with seemingly no links or reason will start crap.

  20. Re:Too bad on In Wake of Poor Reviews, Amazon Yanks SimCity Download · · Score: 2

    Pre-ordering is the new "demo".
    The game industry is shit, filled with shit, and they keep piling on more shit.
    Not that some games are bad, I enjoy Indie/Greenlight games as much as the normally made industry games. But the drivers of games released in this way have driven good ideas off the cliff (Warhammer Online, EA games in general, bad console to PC ports), because they want money, not excuses.
    Take these jackass investors out of the loop and find games go back to a better state, where demos were released before the games, and excitement was generated from those demos.
