Ofc: you can always go into an absurd expensive restaurant to make your argument right.
Also the airfair from a decent american destination can hardly be over $500 per person.
If you spent more than $2000 for a week for 2 persons, for flight, hotel and meals: you seriously are doing something wrong. If you want to spent more you are free to do that in Museums, Opera, Theatre, Disney World, but a reasonable tourist couple hardly, very hardly can get above $3000.
No, you can do everything via keyboard on OS X. Just exchange the ctrl key for the command key. 99% of the time it is even the sameckey binding. E.g. ctrl-F for find is cmd-F in OS X, obviously. You can even remap ctrl to cmd and and vive versa. (System preferences) However remapping the keys wont help you in a shell/Terminal.app as ctrl keys have a defined meaning in a terminal/shell.
Depends on the degree of dislexia, I guess. My dislexia is bottom line to my advantage. I read about 4-5 times as fast as 'mormal' people and spelling mistakes dint stop me. As a mistake like dint/dont my brain does not even recognize. And if there would be a reading stop, because a typo stops me cold, it is usually obvious that i and o are just one key appart and that dint was supposed to mean dont. However my school life was pure hell. Teachers asking me how to spell something and I spelled it right and then asking me why I wrote it wrong. I simply did not comprehend what they where aiming for. How the fuck should I know why I write a word wrong from which I know perfectly well how it is spelled? My parents where to dumb to get me attested as dyslexia, would have helped me a lot. Instead they beat me when I came how with another failed spelling test... (In German, Finish, Italian, Greek, Korean, Japanese words are spelled exactly how they are pronounced with very very few exceptions... so writing correct is not that hard, nevertheless we have plenty of people who 'see different' what is written, and accidentally mix in a letter or something that is supposed to be in a word two or three words ahead)
Please, don't link web pages that show that I'm right. That makes you look very dumb.
Regarding the millions we let in form the middle east: sorry there is no way around that. Or we would be called Nazies and killers and ugly germans or swines or what ever. You can only keep them out by let them starve to death behind the boarder or shoot them.
In both cases you likely would be the first one calling us 'Nazis, ugly Germans, or Swines' again. Thank you.
Unlike your future and former president the High Chancelor of germany has a Phd in Physics. So thank you for your impression that we are 'fed bullshit'.
I'm soon 50, so I care since 40 years, unlike you. Facepalm. An I know about the problems since over 40 years, unlike you. Troll?
Well, I just could quote you and say the same about you. Unfortunately I have no 8 year old daughter to compare you with:)
As I pointed out several times before: a) I worked in the energy business for about ten years - unlike you b) I live in germany and we show the rest of the world how to do renewables - unlike you
So, my definition of idtiot/troll does definitely not match yours:)
VMs cost about 1%-3% processor time overhead. In my opinion that is neglectible. Android development (and likely all web stuff you want to do) you can do on Mac OS X as well. Makes no sense to run Eclipse in a VM to do Android stuff if you simply can run it under Mac OS X.
Sorry, you are wrong. The Java garbage collectors are very good and you can chose between about 10, and parameterize them as you like. And on top of that: of course you can specify when they run. Facepalm.
System.gc();
In most parts of the world, courts are irrelevant for simple matters like this. The law is relevant. And regarding copyright or Urheberrecht (in german) all my posts are under (my) copyright, and so is anything I do with my mind and express with my mouth, body, fingers or any tool at hand. It does mot matter if it is in a discussion, and your way to bring this topic forward makes no sense to me. But perhaps you are right in your judisdiction, I pitty you then.
USA would be seeing record numbers of tornadoes and super F5 tornadoes You miss a few things: if it is to dry there can no tornado form. Nevertheless the scientists where right: it is hot in the tornado region. So about what exactly are you complaining?
just like they were saying we would be seeing record numbers of Cat 5 hurricanes after Katrina Yes, and we have those. But they have different names, like Taifun, Cyclone etc. Because they luckily for you did not happen in the USA.
One of the biggest storms in recored history was last year around november/december in the north atlantic. But it did not make land fall, only a few trailers caused havoc over the UK.
It is close to a conspirator that the storm was not even in the news. Basically only people interested in naval stuff and watching/reading navel news know about it.
If that storm had hit the US, your country would not have recovered till today.
We have already established that that is false, with half a dozen German laws criminalizing various forms of speech. No, we have established that it is true, except for those few laws you cited. Facepalm.
What is "idiotic" is that you don't understand the fundamental difference between a country that can throw you in jail just for insulting someone vs a country that cannot do that. Actually this did not happen since decades. So? And actually, you can be punished in your country for the same things, as soon as the victim sues you. The difference is marginal... you seem not to get that.
The German government massively subsidizes and supports certain politically connected and favored religions while denouncing others. That is a myth. There is no state / government money going to any religious organization in Germany.
as a German tax payer, you are even required to declare your religion to the government. Yes, because if you are protestant or catholic on the tax paper you pay a fraction of your taxes as church tax. That is why everyone puts there a "no religion". And if you are from any other religion, you pay no church tax at all, so you simply check "other"... no idea why you think this restricts your freedom. However there are people like me, who simply quit church at age of 14 when we can decide by law about our religion by our selves. Which has the nice side effect that we have not to go to the 2 or 3 hours religion school classes per week anymore. So, if you want to talk about religious freedom: children under 14 can be forced by law or parents to go to religion classes. No idea how that is in your country.
And the fact that you ignorantly try to defend this crap shows how little Germans have learned, and how much of the old Nazi structures survive in Germany. This is an idiotic claim as there is no logical or rational conclusion between the two things. Especially when you consider that in the USA you likely ave more Nazis than Germany has population... KKK etc. or call they themselves KKC... no idea.
The German army/navy/air force is not very big, but belongs to the finest. And most of our stuff is designed for "home defense" and not to bomb third world countries into the Stone Age. In other words, systems like our helicopters and missiles are designed for our terrain. Heavy infantry etc. is basically anti tank defense.
Even if you turn off all your power tomorrow, it doesn't mean anything. We all share the same air. It would change a lot. That is why you are not very smart. You still forget: 75% of all CO2 pollution comes form USA, EU, and niche countries like Kuwait, Russia ofc. If the developed world would over night go to ZERO CO2 (and Germany plans to reach that till 2030 at the earliest and 2050 at the latest) then only 25% is left. That is a HUGE difference.
You REALLY fucking suck at math, you have no idea what it will take to stop CO2 rise in the air, it is simply not going to be stopped. Of course it will be stopped. Either when all energy production is green SOON, or after the fall of mankind when people only can burn wood. I hope / assume there is some middle ground in between. E.g. plenty of asian countries could install off shore wind plants. Some are experimenting with it.
Wind is not working because: 1. You are an idiot 2. You choose not to see it 3. You're a troll
Again: In your country, right now. There is no reason it could work, as there are plenty of examples of countries where it does.
So in my eyes the troll and the idiot is you. Because you can not look over the brim of your plate. Or simply lack knowledge about simple laws of physics.
1) Prices are not set at cost of production plus profit. and: Assuming no mistakes, the prices are set 2) for the maximum profit point, 1) and 2) is exactly the same, or is it not?
because companies don't think "We're making enough money on that, no need to make more" so much as "We want as much profit as we can get." Depends on the company and legislations.
also said you will lose any copyright case in any court attempting to claim copyright infringement on comments you made in a public forum. And you are wrong with that.
I might lose in some obscure court in the US. But definitely not in all of them and absolutely not in any European court.
Your comments here are non-copyrightable for the same reason everything you say is non-copyrightable
I suggest to simply read the copyright law. Facepalm. It is obvious that everything I write is copyrighted. You must be absolutely not familiar with such laws.
Your comments here are not a creative work; they're dialogue. What a creative work is, is defined in Copy Right Law, I suggest to read it. There is no particular "level of creativity" required.
because dialogue is made in text on the Internet, dialogue in a discussion forum is an impromptu speech or dialogue, and non-copyrightable. This is nonsense. Especially as not every public post in a forum is a dialog. What is the next level of your idiotic? A blog post is no longer under copyright? And when I change the web address of my hosting site to "New York times dot com" it suddenly is again under copyright?
You seem to miss that since 1945 holding records bout unguilty/unaccused citizens is illegal. And records about convicted citizens are to be deleted after appropriated time.
You won't be able to do that using floating-point, and you'll often get different answers than you would using actual math. This is actually what I said. But you seem not familiar with the problem of "representation".
Again: floating point numbers have no rounding problem. They simply can not represent every real (or rational) number, they have to use the closes one to the number they want to represent .
And in programming, you can implement it so that you even use the same symbol for the operator! But 1/3 is still 1/3. Facepalm. Not with floating points, but you can use "real math libraries" like in SmallTalk their the type system choses the right "number type" depending on calculation.
Write once, Run anywhere. Obviously only on platforms where Java is supported... a no brainer actually. As far as I can tell, it does the best job so far in comparison with other languages.
So, I quote you: If we don't recycle plastics that aren't biodegradable, and they end up in a landfill, isn't that putting carbon back into the ground?
No it is not.
It is putting Oil back into the ground.
It changes nothing to the CO2 in our atmosphere...
There is no free and open platform that is in anyway similar to Java. Except the free and open Java, of course. So to wich platform should people have contributed their efforts in your opinion?
Slashdot Mirror
A week in a decent Paris hotel would cost something north of $2000 by itself.
That is complete BOLLOCKS.
Like the rest of your post. To spent $1000 for one single week on meals you need to spent obviously $1000/7 or $1000/6 divide again by 2 for two meals per day and then by 2 for 2 persons: that would be around $45 per person and meal. If you really want to spent that much you are already dining like a God in France. If you really want to spent absurd mounts on meals, you still would likely only spent â12 per person for lunch and then you are free to spent â65 per person for dinner. For that price you have minimum 3 bottles of wine, entree, main course, dessert, apéritif and digestive. I'm not really sure you want to drink 3 bottles of wine with your wife during a dinner though.
Ofc: you can always go into an absurd expensive restaurant to make your argument right.
Also the airfair from a decent american destination can hardly be over $500 per person.
If you spent more than $2000 for a week for 2 persons, for flight, hotel and meals: you seriously are doing something wrong. If you want to spent more you are free to do that in Museums, Opera, Theatre, Disney World, but a reasonable tourist couple hardly, very hardly can get above $3000.
If you need hints how to make inexpensive vacation in Paris ... just ask :D :D

And how much is that in percent or promille of the distance of the moon? Or in arc seconds of its appearance at the sky? :D
Depends on the year you pick :D that page lacks the recent years btw. I think peek exhaust of the USA was around 2010 or something, no?
Also most statistics cut out countries like Oceania or Kuwait etc. because they disrupt the big picture.
