    Still Steam on Linux is a 32 bit application. My bank encryption plug-in is 32 bit.

    Do you think that China will be paying us royalties once they figure out how to make a Core i7 processor themselves? F**k no, experience should tell you better.

    Yeah, that sounds as unlikely as the US paying for clean up of all the depleted uranium they spread around! ..

    As far as business goes I guess capitalism/rich people don't care. You can still own assets in China instead. Better profit is better. And one day the Chinese market will be bigger than the US one and there's no reason why they couldn't have the same amount of companies and wealth per capita as the US (well, guess land may be a difference but beyond that.)

    Even if a company liquidizes assets the stock holders can just get that money and put it into use somewhere else.

  15. Re:Nothing New on North Korea Declares a State of War · · Score: 1

    What happens when the NK leadership gets to a point where they feel they have nothing to lose by attacking?

    They learn that they could lose once again but so does other to and lots of civilians and anyone who have to die in a war.

    And of course NK isn't alone in provoking. The U.S. play the same game.

    I feel sad for anyone who would have to die or any part of land ruined and every building destroyed and what not if it ends with a war. So unnecessary.

    Wish they just united again.

    Some Swedish ad agency dropped those bears over "white russia" (is it called that in English?), has anyone dropped "this is the rest of the world" pamplets over NK? How many drones does the US have?

    I assume pamplets wouldn't be taken as facts and I assume the leaders would see it as provoking to. But the west isn't all too bad.

    Says who?

    Whomever said it.

    And will countries like NK or Iran follow suit or not?

    Iran doesn't have any nukes so that's a pretty easy one to solve. I don't know how many North Korea have but I assume one single Ohio-class submarine alone can do quite enough damage to NK.

    And does that result play into the discussions at all?

    Likely. But I think it rather goes like:
    "Ok, we and Russia have the most nukes and more than enough. How many are enough?"

    If you got enough to bomb the shit out of the other player having 9,000 or two million or whatever possibly doesn't do much difference.

    Ask yourself:
    "Would the US even be willing to risk having three nuclear strikes one over the white house, one in New York and one over Pentagon?"

    Or even one in any of the places?

    As far as Iran goes I don't know of much evil they have done or are doing so far but I guess someone can tell me. US seem rather willing to be on any side, switch sides and do whatever as long as they see the most strategic value on that partner/situation regardless of what prick or people they have to do with so I don't really buy "they aren't a democracy!" or dictator or terrorism or whatever. All those are cool and ok in some cases and in some cases not. I guess the problem with Iran is that they are big and they aren't allies/part of NATO like Turkey and Israel.

    I think it's more likely about holding others back so no-one get big enough to pose much of a threat rather than "omg you're so evil!", evil is just fine as long as they mostly bark or the US can handle it.
