  1. Increased road rage? on How To Build Roads To Control How Fast You Drive · · Score: -1

    What happens when Mr. Macho gets pissed off because the person in front of them has no depth perception and now drives very slowly down this new roadway? Do the injury statistics take into account for the road rage that may increase?

    It's sad, but you know those asshats are out there.

    "Assholes" is a relative term. Most people won't be too happy when they're caught behind someone going half the posted limit either.

    It's what they do. They'd rather attack than just discuss it.

    You assume incorrectly. I assume nothing in that statement. People will do it.

    You assume there are no "monumentally stupid" people out there, which given the idiotic replies to this, proves you wrong.

    It's funny how that one statement has made people:

    1. accuse me of being a racist
    2. accusing me of hating poor people
    3. wish me dead
    4. call me names like a 5th grader

    I guess the possibility of this "reform" bill crapping out like the turd that it is has all the lefties all burko. Only they could get violent over things like this instead of just talking about it. Get over yourselves.

    And what does that have to do with an individual's health insurance?

    My tax money pays for the roads, and for schools, but I'm not paying for my neighbor's driveway.

    Wow, did you just imply that poor people are of a specific race? Do you do work for the census?

    And, yes, I hate any single person that earns less than $10830 ($14366, in case your a census person) per year. You nailed it. Got me there. What scum they are.

    You need to get out more too.

    Yes, very "social". Being social just makes it easier to live off the system and not for themselves. That is the big picture which you fail to see.

    What happens when everyone sits back and bleeds the system dry? What then? Does the government then force you to work for them?

    I work my ass of for what I have. You have too many people that want handouts. That is the big problem.

    The cheapest route sounds like to get fired from your job, go on welfare to get your food and housing paid for, then get free health care. Who needs to work? That was the plan wasn't it?

    So if you only own a bicycle you're being forced to buy auto insurance? What hell are you living in? Oh yeah, the Obama hell where I'm sure that will come next.

    If you look in websys.h, you'll see a short block of definitions for making some portion of this compile under Linux. So maybe they were thinking of some portability.

    Then there is also this on line 65: /* Hard to believe the Linux bozos tried to rename stricmp() */

    tcpdump is much easier.

    I have the same problem with Fedora 8. A frozen front end. Tried compiling it and tried the binary download and both have the same problem.

    Same problem here with Fedora 8. Nice front end with a blinking cursor for the city name, but you can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse recognition. I have to go back to the command line and CTRL-C to kill it.

    Maybe its time to figure out how to debug python, or TCL/TK, or whatever that front end is using.
