it's *because* I'm old I bought the 1920x1080 graphics card (used, $70) and 23" widescreen monitor (refurbished, $100), for the big fonts yet two pages on a screen. I might even get a 2nd monitor this is sooo nice
nonsense, I've been using that crap for six months now at work, it is the very worst UI I've ever had the misfortune to encounter (e.g. seven insert function not under Insert but References, Insert row in table NOT under Table Tools, etc. etc. ), Half of what I need to do isn't in the ribbon.
The ribbon is only for people who made two page documents with italics and headings as most advanced thing.
ha. but we are presently measuring all manner of Betelgeuse's properties including its at least six shells, even though the thing, as a star, might not exist anymore other than as photons coming at us. So we might have a name and mountains of papers for something which is but an image.....
the cooler bits of IP-NG as it was in the mid 90s were left behind as it became the present IPv6. I only know about them because of presentations at the national lab where I worked at the time by the designers.
Regarding the first few sentences, we're not ruled from Washington DC, those lawmakers and enforcers are in the pockets of mega-corporations including central bankers. We are deprived of representation in their decisions (small example, FDA officials who were former industry members making legal the dangerous and deadly practices and substances illegal in most parts of the world) We have sovereignty given over to international organizations without our consent nor representation. We have armed forces and intelligence agency engaged in billions of dollars worth of narcotics trade to finance operations of which we have no control. We have supreme court justices upholding the power of the corporations to lobby and make our laws, against the wishes and well-being of the people.
bad, bad assumption you're making. What form does the "wealth" of all these uber-rich take? It's mostly pieces of paper and blips of information on disk arrays attached to IBM Z and Unisys Clearpath mainframes. Please tell me what the FUCK any use that will be after collapse, and why I need either those fiat chits or the two-legged parasites that hold them, other than as fuel or chum.
We won't need them, and whatever physical wealth they have as small percentage of the total they have now (land, gold, etc.) should be taken after their trial for treason and crimes against humanity
it's a certainty we've named stars that don't exist anymore, and have made descriptions of their composition, spectrum, distance, trajectory, companions. And the light from their destruction will soon hit us.
it won't be the poor and revolutionaries who'll be rebuilding it
what utter rubbish, you're telling me no poor or middle class person earned and built up their own wealth? You're telling me a banker or typical financier knows how to design or build anything other than debt and debt-notes? You're telling me the only way to build or run a business is by going into debt and being in debt? Most of the oligarchs in our current system with its mega-corporations have only made laws and procedures to shut out the small guy from becoming successful or participating in markets (for one example, the "food safety bill") and to lock us into buying their products while quashing alternatives. we don't need those uber-rich parasites, we've already had to prop up, are continuing to prop up, their failed business models with debt laid upon us.
Those who can invent, design, build don't need those people.
was the Declaration of Independence, including its promise of violence, justified?
our U.S. government has presently gone way beyond each and all of the abuses listed.
no, I thought the nation is falling into poverty and the middle class is disappearing, while oligarchs control the government and most of the wealth, and get bailouts from the government when their bad business models fail. Please give me statistics to make me feel wrong about this.
Oh, and make me feel good about the "Dutch Sandwich" whereby companies like google only have to pay 2.5% in income tax while enjoying all the benefits of being a U.S company.
Give me some extra loving shilling for the system, I've been having thought-crimes lately about it.
thanks!
I understand very well; if we observe such a thing this year it will be "the Supernova of 2011", not "The supernova of circa 1360". For us on Earth, the explosion hasn't happened until the information reaches us.
actually, there is not an observed contraction but rather a rotation in the direction of the observer. Problem is Lorentz-Fitzgerald (and many textbooks modeling observation of near-lightspeed objects) only consider one dimension in the direction of travel, but the three spacial dimensional treatment gives the rotation.
jokes on you, the 6502 was introduced as a cheap, feature-reduced alternative microprocessor for $25 for when the over $150 8080 and 6800 were too expensive. Cheap..and buggy. Kind of like the piece of shit FDM machine of this article....
And what did people do before the FDM became good enough in the 90s, for plastic housings and soft tools and molds? What do they do NOW when they need a solution with better than the hundredths of an inch sloppiness of typical FDM? Back to the milling machine.....jobs for the milling machine often can't be jobs for the FDM, you're half right.
but this type of FDM system just has abysmal tolerances on the parts it produces, too horribly bad for any useful "widget"
it's not being a condescending ass to say "why blow large amount of money for half-assed crap when you can get something really, really good that can work in sugar or plastic or steel, that can last your whole life"
The "CS People" came up with the solution over 15 years ago. In fact, IP6 is a sucky, stripped down half-assed implementation of that really cool solution. Be sure to let the masses know it was power and money grubbing incompetent executive and managerial wankers who repeatedly delayed execution of the solution.
and the response to that would be, "why should we pay those who make nothing but claims upon our money? we make real things, and you must buy them because you make nothing. We don't have to pay you, the makers of nothing, and you have no way to make us pay. What would you do, stop buying from us? You can't stop buying from us, makers of nothing.
large, real metal cutting milling machines can also be had used for that price range, and you can add CNC over time while first learning the tricks of the trade. Instead of cutting plastic or sugar, learn to make real fucking machines with a real fucking machine.
hahah, RerRap is a joke, it can't make its circuit boards, motors, sensors, not even its threaded rods for that piss-poorly "engineered" tinker toy frame. A child's toy for today's arrested development boys in men's skins.
A milling machine can replicate itself, motor and all. Note I didn't even put the letters CNC in front of milling machine, replication of non-CNC milling machines by themselves was a done deal in the 1950s or perhaps even earlier.
No, there is considerable lag between what the sun does and how the various dynamic systems on earth distribute energy.
Other data sources than NASA say 2010 2nd warmest year.

nice shill attempt there, google boy. But google mostly operates in high corporate tax rate countries, e.g. U.S. rate is 35%, UK 28%., etc but transfers earnings to low-tax areas while expenses stay in the high tax areas. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-10-21/google-2-4-rate-shows-how-60-billion-u-s-revenue-lost-to-tax-loopholes.html

you'd better hand in your geek card if you think the Pentium is anything remotely like the processors of the first personal computers.

hey, half the machines in my home are mac (wife and kids). but the other half run cooler OS
