    Not any worse than "anthratic ocelot" or "diseased Dilbert" or any of the wonderful names canonical has come up with.

    Not hatred, but pity. Pity for you are a fool. The world has great need of decent portable power beyond phones.

    I will never need a cert signed by a foreign government - ANY foreign government.

    I'm having a hard time with trusting domestic governments as well.

  10. Re:Here we go again...... on Scientists Are Cracking the Primordial Soup Mystery · · Score: 1

    I dislike comments like "...never implied that it was...", why add worthless flotsam to the conversation. You are aware that there are people who are interested in this stuff. Adding your two cents "just to be heard" is worthless, unintelligent, and really kind of a dick move. Own your words, you wrote 'em.

    I'm a little surprised they picked Hawaii for this. I'd have thought Hawaii wasn't talk enough. A scope of this size is going to magnify atmospheric & temp distortion greatly unless it's high enough to miss that shit.

  13. DirectX Imbecile on AMD Says There Will Be No DirectX 12 — Ever · · Score: 1

    I've never written to the API, but from a user persepective the only thing I found annoying about DirectX was every game on the planet wanted to distribute its own copy/version of it. Which I never did understand, as far as I can tell its the one API that M$ took great pains to keep backward compatible, so why couldn't all these games simply use the version that was installed (unless it was too old.) Other than that, I never had a problem with it, it worked fine, and in some cases appeared to be superior to OpenGL, until lately. Certainly OGL has made some great strides and really is the defacto gfx library for everyone else, Windows machines can even use the Win32/64 port if the user choose. Still, I have to wonder what the big problem for AMD/Microsoft. No longer an evolving technology? Are they planning on dumping it for something new in the works? Have they decided they can't compete with OGL? Smells to me like another sign (as I've been talking about) that Microsoft is NOT as innvative as they were, or thought they were. And AMD? Christ, might as well put a fork in it.

    North Korea isn't weak like Iraq.

    Actually, in some ways, its weaker than Iraq. DPRK infrastructure is decades behind even Qatar. The only trains than run on a regular basis are the metros in the capitol, and a bi-weekly that runs north to Chongjin. They'd run it more but they don't have enough petrol for it. You bark a lot little doggy but I don't think you know as much as you think you do.
