154 people died because of 3 violations of safety protocol by the aircrew themselves overriding things they shouldn't have overridden... the very things that were telling them the aircraft was not safe to fly.
When your smoke detector goes off, and you just unplug the battery and go back to bed without bothering to notice your house is in fact on fire, its not the smoke detectors fault you died.
The aircrew essientially pulled the batteries out of 3 smoke detectors that were going off, and you're trying to say the fact that the 4th one was broken is REALLY the problem?
3 OTHER RED FLAGS WERE RAISED THAT THEY OPENLY IGNORED, IN FACT DISABLED AFTER THEY RAISED THE FLAGS.
THAT is why people die in airline crashes. 9 times out of 10 its because some fucker was in a hurry and didn't think the safety rules applied to him. This is one of those times.
Or BSD the code so it can be used in clients that matter. Or better still... use the fucking standard XMPP video protocols rather than their own fucked up version so that every client that already supports proper XMPP video can work with it.
I don't want to use some other shitty client like Pidgin because Google doesn't want to follow the standard for some retarded reason.
So your upset that the bottom end Macs dont' include high end graphics cards?
Are you retarded? When did low end machines start coming with modern high end graphics cards from Dell or HP?
My Laptop from last year runs Crysis versions currently available just fine. Of course, its not the bottom end model, but its certainly not the high end model either. I can't say it runs Crysis 2 great, but neither can you say it runs it bad since neither one of us can actually run it... So your slideshow comment was just a ignorant jab due to your lack of any real logic or reason for your statements.
Windows 7 runs it all in user mode (you don't have to reboot when you install a driver) so a crash isn't a big deal.
Uhm, live kernel driver updates is something windows has done since Windows 2000. 99.9% of the time in Windows XP can have its graphics drivers update on the fly and work fine if you just ignore the 'you must reboot' button.
The drivers are kernel mode, they always have been, they always will be, unless you want them to be slow as molasses due to the userland/kerneland context switching thats required.
Rebooting is not required to modify kernel drivers. Its as simple as issuing 'net stop' and 'net start' commands (or using the API for the same purpose) with the NT kernel. I know, I do it, I've written Windows kernel drivers.
2) nVidia in particular but ATi as well are real good at writing drivers. They don't crash much, if ever. They are not going to be our source of instability.
What world do you live on?
ATI has some of the shittiest most unreliable drivers on the freaking planet.
nVidia gives you a 50/50 chance of getting a good version that works reliably without a bunch of bugs. Half the time you score, the other half the time you're falling back to an older version of some sort so your games don't crash or your machine bluescreen anymore.
I'm not really sure where you get your information from, but you probably should not use that source anymore.

You saw a picture on the Internet from some Android dev phone that said WCDMA on it... and so you inferred from that... that AT&T doesn't use GSM, it uses CDMA...
You are, without a doubt, an idiot.
Considering the number of times I've carried my phone between AT&Ts network and Europe... and simply swapped sim cards... or that the frequencies the AT&T phones all use are GSM freqs... or... you know what, why bother... you saw some image on the Internet, it must be true, everyone else must be confused.
Apple did fix some serious flaws in handling hardware lighting occlusion. These were difficult to track down and resolve and will effect a lot more than just Steam and StarCraft II, but Value was the one pushing to get them fixed as it did effect Steam so much.
Unfortunately, Apple didn't push back on Valve and make them fix their retarded fucking software so it can deal with case-insensitive file systems like any normal piece of software can. As a result, I still won't be buying any Steam games since I still can't run it without 6 symlinks, and a drive image mounted and formated with a case insenstive file system.
The upside is, the update did make my machine run noticeable cooler when playing EVE online. So thank you very much Valve and Apple, but Valve, your still welcome to go fuck yourselves until you learn how to write code like professionals.
Yes, adding another distro is a great idea... if you want to run games from Value you have to use their distro. If you want to run EA games you have to use their distro.
Contrary to the common but ignorant belief that more Linux distro's is a good thing, they aren't. Linux's main problem to commercial adaptation is the number of distros and the problems dealing with inconsistancies between them (did you even read the post you're responding too?)... adding more distros doesn't help the problem when the problem is already 'too many distros'.
And for what? A few thousand sales at the very most? When instead they can dedicate that same person to Windows and get 100,000 sales from their work?
Don't expect Value to start asking for your resume, you've already show you have absolutely no idea why they haven't done it already.
DLL Hell on Linux is actually far worse than DLL hell on Windows, package management tools or not, its not a problem they can solve, again, contrary to popular belief. If you think package management tools can solve the problem then you clearly don't understand the problem.
Heh, the first problem is they'll have to make it deal with case insensitive file systems, which it doesn't or I wouldn't have to make 6 different symlinks and use disk images with case insensitive file systems just to trick its stupid ass into working.
What you'll get is a steam for linux... that tells you that you have to install on a FAT filesystem or something retarded like that because they some how magically fuck up their software so it breaks on case-insensitive filesystems. How they manage to do so is beyond me since I write code that runs on both Windows and OSX for a living and it requires no actual effort to support both. The only way I have issues is if I do something stupid like changing the case of paths as I find them or not using defines so I have MyAppDir in one plays and myappdir in another place.
Basically, Valve writes code so poorly I wouldn't expect a USABLE Linux version anytime this decade.
Donno if its true, but it would seem like it... and its a great trade off. Apple's nVidia drivers are about 3 billion times more reliable than anything nVidia itself has ever produced.
I'm happy with my 'slow' graphic drivers as I've never noticed them being slow. Until Steam learns how to deal with case sensitive file systems I doubt Steam will ever be a problem for me.
I play all sorts of stuff on my Mac and can't tell the difference between it and the Windows versions. I can say that the graphics update did seem to make my Mac run cooler while playing EVE Online but it doesn't seem to be any 'faster'.
I can play EVE in Win7 with the latest WHLQ drivers and get random crashes. I can play EVE under OSX and it works flawlessly... considering its using Cedaga to run under OSX I'm fairly confident that I'm happier in OSX than I am in Windows thanks to Apple.
I don't know who, nor do I really care who makes my video card drivers, I do know that in MY experience, games in OSX are more reliable than they are in Windows.
Because I have actual real-life friends on Facebook, and as I am interested in seeing what they're up to from time to time, I assume that that interest is reciprocated. I have also made new friends on Facebook and similar sites, some of which have become genuine, real life friends.
Yea, sure you do. Thats why you go so out of your way to keep in touch with them...
If you had real friends, you would be a part of thier lives and keep up with them without facebook.
What you and your friends have is a emotional/mental problem causing you to want to air your daily life to everyone because you might get some attention from it. The only reason people comment on your online diary is because just like you, they think you care and will give them attention in return. Its from your deeper issues of insecurity. Its generally common in teenagers due to hormones, but it seems that one of the latest generations has carried it into adulthood as well. I blame teachers and parents who continually tell their children they are special and unique.
Everytime someone says 'I use facebook because I have real friends' all I hear is 'I am an attention sponge who is so self centered and needed that the only people that will talk to me without being forced is these other emotional wrecks on the Internet who also have no actual friends and dontcare about anything but how popular they are on facebook. I don't actually care about me Facebook friends because I'd see them often enough that I wouldn't need facebook to keep in touch'.
I guess you and I have different definitions for 'friend'. Mine actually involves giving a fuck about the persons life and enjoying their company. Yours seems to revolve around how many times you check your facebook wall and comment on a daily bases.
If you have more than about 5 or 6 'facebook friends' then you don't actually know what a friend is, 'real life' or otherwise. What you define as a friend, most people define as an acquaintance or 'someone they know'
What you said and what you mean are two different things, even if you aren't conciously aware of it.
You said you have friends and facebook gets demographics.
Reality is, you don't have friends, you have attention whore acquaintances and Facebook gets GREAT demographics about people who are so emotionally insecure that they'll follow even the dumbest of fads. IE, they not only get to know pretty much everything about you because you think someone actually cares (really, they don't) AND they have a priceless list of idiots to sell to others so they can sell you stupid shit. Your just like people who buy Apple products because they are cool, and the list of people like you is worth a freaking FORTUNE to businesses who are more than willing to use that to their advantage.
I don't use facebook, obviously, but I value when someone tells me they use facebook on a regular basis. Makes it REALLY easy for me to know who NOT to associate with.
Go see a therapist and you'll probably end up far happier once you get to a well adjusted state than you have ever been from everything on Facebook combined.
NAT is network address translation, one to one. One side has one address, the other side sees it as another address. Its just useful during renumbering of one address space to the next.
PAT is port translation. Its pretty much the same as NAT except it only translates ports, so its useful for redirecting from one port to another.
What MOST people use is a Port and Network Address Translation. PAT is used to refer to it since just port translation is really silly since you're just making one port one a machine talk on another port on the same machine.
People refer to it as PAT because the port part is really the part that makes it work. If you didn't translate the port, you'd rapidly run into collisions on the conversion between multiple internal machines on one side and a single address on the other side.
So... technically PAT is the wrong name, but NAT is not what you are actually using. So... you can either follow the commonly used term that is technically incorrect, or you can use the utterly wrong term which in no way is correct, not from a technical perspective or a common usage perspective.
If you're going to try and be pedantic, you might want to be correct too, makes the rest of your statement just retarded otherwise.
To be pedantic, what we use today is NPAT. Network Port and Address Translation.
Now my cameras I'll just enter the addresses in the recorder one time,
Until it changes, and you have to figure out why its not working and update it to the new address.
You've clearly never managed any network of any size or you'd know how incredibly stupid it is to use IP addresses when configuring things other than DNS and the default router, which you then proceed to do everything in your power to NEVER change the address of.
If you have a device that doesn't support DNS than you need to throw it in the trash, I don't care how small it is. I have $10 ethernet connectors that have built in TCP/IP stacks fully capable of doing DNS lookups that could be attached to an Atari 2600 with about 10 wires and would allow it to use DNS, IPv6 and IPv4... Its not like its hard to support, you just buy cheap shit.
I've moved several portions of our network to IPv6 without anyone even NOTICING thanks to DNS.
You're argument is that its easier to give 10 people an IP address than to use DNS and put the IP address in once... I can not possibly understand how you came up with this thought.
You give your testing hosts 'special' non-obvious names so people don't have any more of a chance guessing them than they do an IP address.
Then of course there are times when DNS breaks due to service lockup or someone misplacing an encryption key
What the fuck are you talking about? Yes if the DNS server goes down lookups are going to fail... FOR EVERYTHING so its likely its not going to go down for long since that would essentially shutdown the entire network.
DNS servers tend not to break in case you haven't noticed, the server what is essentially static data. When they do break, you just restart the service and its a little slow until the cache builds back up with other hosts from external source but internal is instantly fast.
I'm not really sure what the hell you're talking about with the encryption stuff as I've never in my life heard of someone changing and encryption key and 'breaking dns' but I suppose with DNSSEC its bound to happen, its certainly not a problem that even NASA would have a concern about so you certainly have no real reason to worry.
If you're typing out an IP address more than once, you're doing it wrong, I don't care what you're doing.
a: Its actually ubiquitous in the LAN these days. Both Apple and Microsoft use IPv6 link local operations very heavily, because it Just Works with nice stateless autoconfiguration and multicast.
You do realize that XP does this out of the box... over IPv4 right? And there are RFCs and standards that make it really easy for an IPv4 device to auto configure itself in a link local manner... right?
Windows XP, OSX, and my FreeBSD machine with isc-dhcpd will all fallback to link local addresses if DHCP fails.
Unfortunately, every generic home router defaults to not using link local address space by default and uses some other private address space and DHCP so most people, even techies are entirely unaware of the fact that this isn't unique to IPv6 in any way. Of course, most of the same people don't realize that IPX did it as well because they don't even know what IPX is.
The RFC is from 2005, but it was done in at least 2001 by Microsoft that I'm aware of, and probably well before that by Cisco and Bay and those guys, but I haven't been a router flunky in a long time so I don't really recall more details.
Lots of large networks are moving to IPv6 simply to manage their own internal networks for things that really don't talk to the Internet. ISPs moving their internal routers to IPv6 address space for themselves and internally tunneling IPv6 over it is not all THAT uncommon.
There are now cable modems that do the tunneling on the modem, so you see your IP and then the next hop in your route... may actually be 4 or 5 hops away, but its simply not visible to you since those are IPv6 hops that your IPv4 packet never actually sees.
There are lots of the big players doing what you are talking about, thank god.
As a bonus, include the ability to disable cell phones entirely based on GPS location so you no longer have to confiscate them when people enter your military base.
Because if it was simply a matter of 'turning it off' then you'd just turn your phone off when you entered the base.
The problem is... they can't trust you to LEAVE IT OFF. You turn off the GPS at the front gate, 10 minutes later turn it on and start sending out info, completely negating the entire reason they don't let you take the phone in, and since you're a spy, you don't give a shit that its 'against the rules'
Yes, because the rest of the world gives a flying fuck what the idiots in California do... in case you haven't noticed, most of the rest of the country looks at California as 'how to do it... the wrong way'
Let me know when someone else cares what California says.
Federal and other states don't work that way. I assure you my state isn't going to take me into custudy and ship me off to you for the charge. The feds aren't going to get involved either. So great, California thinks they can tell me what to do... good for them, I'm not visiting any time soon, and by the time I do you won't be able to pay for your police force anyway so its not like you're going to have the money to arrest and prosecute me for violating your privacy... on the other hand, you've probably been caught committing a far more damaging crime in the phone conversation.
Its good that you think your corrupted politicians coming up with ways to protect themselves from getting caught is a good idea. The rest of us really don't care.
And calling a two-party state from a one-party state does mean you need to follow the laws of both states.
No it doesn't.
I won't be extradited to Florida for recording a conversation on a phone call between North Carolina and Florida without the consent of those in Florida, I assure you.
Perhaps you shouldn't try to play lawyer. Its an interstate issue at that point.
Florida's laws don't apply to me until I'm in Florida, just like NC laws don't apply to Floridians until they come to NC.
Yea, because they wouldn't just take the recorder and then beat you up if they are that corrupted.
Thats retarded logic. Your recording device would just disappear if they wanted to do something illegal to you. They aren't going to care about some recording law if they aren't going to be bothered with the other laws.
We are most certainly fucking stupid if you base your judgement on our politicians.
Please don't assume the people in a country are as stupid as those in power.
I'll make plenty of stupid convict jokes about Austrailians just case it seems to annoy them so much, but I don't for an instant hold what their government does on this level against them. Its a little different if they allow their government to invade a country for oi.... oh fuck it, nevermind.
Those people will still be a drain, as it'll still be my tax money paying to support them because they couldn't get a job that wasn't paid for by my tax money. It still confuses me how so many illegal immigrants have no problems finding jobs... yet Americans can't seem to figure out how to get one... God its great to be in a country full of lazy fucks. Fortunately, we'll be replaced by hard working immigrants soon and it won't be as much of a problem.
The up side is... at least my tax money will be going to provide something I see as benificial rather than just paying them to sit at home and collect unemployement.
The fastest economic plan in general is to just stop with unemployement and welfare payments, but thats not going to happen so I'll settle for making them actually do something for their money.
I just booked a flight from Raleigh NC to Atlanta for $60.
I can't GET on the train here to go ANYWHERE for $60 if you exclude the private railroad that does Halloween rides for $30 along its 2 miles of private track a few miles from here.

Yes, because the rest of the world gives a flying fuck what the idiots in California do ... in case you haven't noticed, most of the rest of the country looks at California as 'how to do it ... the wrong way'
Let me know when someone else cares what California says.
Federal and other states don't work that way. I assure you my state isn't going to take me into custudy and ship me off to you for the charge. The feds aren't going to get involved either. So great, California thinks they can tell me what to do ... good for them, I'm not visiting any time soon, and by the time I do you won't be able to pay for your police force anyway so its not like you're going to have the money to arrest and prosecute me for violating your privacy ... on the other hand, you've probably been caught committing a far more damaging crime in the phone conversation.
Its good that you think your corrupted politicians coming up with ways to protect themselves from getting caught is a good idea. The rest of us really don't care.
No it doesn't.
I won't be extradited to Florida for recording a conversation on a phone call between North Carolina and Florida without the consent of those in Florida, I assure you.
Perhaps you shouldn't try to play lawyer. Its an interstate issue at that point.
Florida's laws don't apply to me until I'm in Florida, just like NC laws don't apply to Floridians until they come to NC.
...
Yea, because they wouldn't just take the recorder and then beat you up if they are that corrupted.
Thats retarded logic. Your recording device would just disappear if they wanted to do something illegal to you. They aren't going to care about some recording law if they aren't going to be bothered with the other laws.
Your logic is ... well ... its not.
Sucks to be you, here its entirely legal to record anything as long as one person in the conversation is aware of it.
I can walk into your house and record everything that happens without your consent because I gave myself consent.
Most states that aren't run by the mafia probably are a lot different than Illinois.
When the convicts moved back to England.
I'm American.
We elect our politicians.
We are most certainly fucking stupid if you base your judgement on our politicians.
Please don't assume the people in a country are as stupid as those in power.
I'll make plenty of stupid convict jokes about Austrailians just case it seems to annoy them so much, but I don't for an instant hold what their government does on this level against them. Its a little different if they allow their government to invade a country for oi .... oh fuck it, nevermind.
Interestingly enough, it was spoken as if it were a response FROM a 15 year old.
I agree to some extent.
Those people will still be a drain, as it'll still be my tax money paying to support them because they couldn't get a job that wasn't paid for by my tax money. It still confuses me how so many illegal immigrants have no problems finding jobs ... yet Americans can't seem to figure out how to get one ... God its great to be in a country full of lazy fucks. Fortunately, we'll be replaced by hard working immigrants soon and it won't be as much of a problem.
The up side is ... at least my tax money will be going to provide something I see as benificial rather than just paying them to sit at home and collect unemployement.
The fastest economic plan in general is to just stop with unemployement and welfare payments, but thats not going to happen so I'll settle for making them actually do something for their money.
I just booked a flight from Raleigh NC to Atlanta for $60.
I can't GET on the train here to go ANYWHERE for $60 if you exclude the private railroad that does Halloween rides for $30 along its 2 miles of private track a few miles from here.
