  1. Re:Prior art? Easy... on Apple Files Patent for Translucent Windows · · Score: 5, Insightful

    READ THE FUCKING PATENT. It's not enough just to be translucent. It has to allow stuff like becoming transparent to user input over time as well.

    Just who the hell are "Micro-Soft"? The company is called "Microsoft". Just look at their website at http://www.microsoft.com/ (not http://www.micro-soft.com/) to verify this. This is even worse than the MicroSoft people, and arguably worse than M$, as at least they're trying to make some sort of (childish) point, and you're just being dumb.

    Get a fucking clue, fuck wad. Doom III _is_ single player centric, just like Quake II was.

    You might want to learn to program in English before you try another language. All your #defines have the two parameters the wrong way round.

    32 bits only allows 4 GB of RAM, which will be a real problem soon. 64 bits would allow 16777216 TBs.

    It's not funny, as that exact joke was in the story itself.

    Story said "Mrs Potatohead giving Mr. Potato head", and the poster just repeated that joke. Hilarious.

    "It's" is a contraction of "it is". The apostrophe in this case shows a contraction.

    I'm British. I say maths, short for math(ematic)s. Get over it, yank. It's our language.

    You don't sound like a computer scientist. You sound like just another code monkey. Computer _scientists_ need maths.

  17. Why is maths useful for computer scientists? on Math And The Computer Science Major · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Useful?! You can't do anything without it. You can't study graphics without maths. You can't study 3d graphics and simulation without quite advanced maths. You can't study audio without maths. You can't study just about anything in computer science without maths.

    Only a Mickey Mouse comp sci course would not require maths to quite a high standard.

  18. Re:The fatal flaw in this reasoning on Projected 'Average' Longhorn System Is A Whopper · · Score: 1

    "Graphics can't get that much better than they are in current games."

    People thought the same when Wolfenstein 3d came out!

    If you honestly believe that graphics can't get much better than Doom III, you are just another short sighted idiot. In five years time look back at this post and you will see what I mean.

    Just look at some of the screenshots on doom3.com. Look at one without a monster or gun in it and try to imagine a photograph looking like that. The last time I checked the real world didn't have curves formed from a sequence of small straight lines (http://www.doom3.com/images/screenshots/03.jpg, the cryo pipes on the left), just for one small example.

    I assure you that graphics will improve.

  21. Re:125K per episode is never enough... on Simpsons Pay Dispute Settled · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You sir, are an idiot.

    If they only made two episodes a year, as you have said (you said they're paid 250k a year, 125k per episode, so two episodes a year), and there have been 329 episodes, that must mean that they have been making episodes for 164 years, or since 1840.

    Do you accept you have made a mistake and that you are an idiot?

    They produce episodes at the rate of one a week, but the total time for production is six months.

    What do you mean "smooth (i.e.) slow transitions, discrete pixels".

    If the transition between pixels is smooth, then they're not very discrete, are they.
