What incorrect information? That there was a page that mentioned both search terms? Seems like that was correct.
Seems that you want everyone to be able to force their own ideas of correctness on everyone else. To you, and others like you, which appears to be the Australian Courts, I say... SUCK IT.
Microsoft could go a long way if they just stopped selling Visual Studio.... give it away so you can get the dev tools in the hands of those who need it (and have the most time to make apps for you...
You mean like they have been doing for the last 5+ years?
Initially Samsung did some design work in cooperation with Apple on the processor design, but Apple has since moved it's design team totally in house. They don't need to initially hire someone, they already have the entire team in house as is.
Haven't you heard about the 0-day hacks infesting COD (Which are non-centralized servers)? Or the people who got hacked by using hamachi or other VPNs to set up LAN based games over the internet? Oh, how about Company of Heroes and their hacks since the servers aren't centralized, or their massive issues that STILL haven't been solved with people behind NATs. Guess you are grossly uninformed.
Because the hacks, cheats, and dups were on the official battle.net servers. Then you'd have the griefers that would only come online to try and kill off hardcore characters until they got banned and they wouldn't care because they'd just go play offline or on non-battle.net servers. All that went away, and good riddance.
I currently have no problems choosing who I play with, when, or where. As for centralized servers creating huge security and points of failure... LOL! Keep reaching.
As for the product being broken and inferior... Seems to work better than diablo 2 ever did. I don't see people running around online with hacked gear in 24 out of 25 games like I did in diablo 2. Seems diablo 1 & 2 were broken and inferior to me. I don't have to install hamachi or another type of VPN software and wonder if the game is going to work on a multi-homed network like so many LAN-only games. Or if it was going to throw up and lag when response times if they got over 10ms. Or if the game will belly up because the one guy running the server had his machine overclocked and it locked up. Or he had to go. Or after 2 hours getting somewhere every drops with a "sync error". Remember those? Yeah, me too. Haven't seen that happen once in diablo 3.
Seems you just value being able to cheat and hack more than just playing the game and having it work. I'll put up with a few instances of lag rather than hours of troubleshooting network issues with my not so technical friends, exposing my entire network or shares to random people on the internet through VPNs, and wasted hours of gaming because the game was designed for LAN play instead of internet play. Feel free to play diablo 2, I'm still enjoying diablo 3.
Hacks, cheats, and massive dups are such an awesome feature, that doesn't exist in Diablo 3 because they don't allow antisocial rejects to play offline by themselves.
Considering that a vast number of your previous posts degrade into nothing more than you trying to prove your awesomeness by insulting others, I'll just let the rest of your post slide and speak for itself. I'd wager that I am vastly more technical than you, and I understand sometimes people have opinions are desires that aren't an exact match of my own.
If the masses want something that YOU don't, it doesn't make them dumb; It just makes you the odd man out. Guess you are used to being there. I can see how that could make you bitter.
Given a problem that needs to work in under x time, memory constraints, and on a certain base hardware platform, a developer writes the code hoping that it will meet the constraints, then does performance analysis and tries to tweak it to meet those constraints. A software engineer starts by designing the system so that it will meet those constraints, then writes the code, and then tests to make sure it actually works as designed. There are very few real software engineers anymore except in very specialized fields. Most high level languages abstract so much of what is really going on that it makes real software engineering nearly impossible.
The latest numbers I could find (from google): 500M androids have been activated up until Sept 2012. 435M iOS devices sold up until Sept 2012 + 122M Macs (some weren't BSD based) + (approx) 350M iPods.
Also remember that every single one of those 500M androids are running some BSD code as well.
You'd need a reference for that. I would submit that BSD code is more prevalent than GPL in actual use by an order of magnitude or better.
Every copy of windows has BSD code in it (No, not the tcp/ip stack). But libraries to do things like zipping files, displaying GIFs, etc etc. Mac OS and iOS is based on BSD as well. Even linux has BSD code in it. So does the PS3, Xbox 360, and FreeNAS.
That is why if you want to make sure your messages are secure, you write them down on a piece of paper, put them into an envelope, and drop it into a random mailbox. Of course to be secure, you also have to encrypt the senders and receivers address on the outside of the envelope.
Why not? The US could go bankrupt, default on all loans, it's currency valued as toilet paper and sure, it'd hurt, but it wouldn't wipe me out either. That's why you diversify. My savings and bonds would be gone, but my commodities would be worth more, and my stocks would do ok. Of course I have stocks in the US, the UK, China, Europe, and Asia.
Countries come and go, but multinational corporations march on.
As with all things in life, never put all your assets in one bucket. Stocks may play a part, even a large part of your investments, but always have money in different things like bonds, commodities, and savings as well.
Sure, it's possible that all stocks, bonds, commodities go belly up along with all the banks and the government (that insures savings through FDIC), but at that point, all hell has broken lose, your money is most likely worthless and you're more interested in protecting yourself from zombies. But it could happen.
I understand inflation just fine. What I don't understand is crackpots, and while your rants are entertaining and all over the place, you lose your focus.
My advice is sound, and works, has worked, and will continue to work in all markets, economies, and time periods (given enough time). Yours is based on crackpot theories and only works in certain time periods with little concrete advice other than to run around crying because the sky is falling all because of *evil people.
Sure, why don't you just cherry pick your answers. How about looking at the bigger picture: 1990 gold price: 383, dow: 2468 2012 gold price: 1685, dow: 13289 gold is worth 4.40 times what it was in 1990, and the DOW is 5.38 times what it was in 1990. The numbers get even better for stocks the more years you add in. Your advice only works in time periods in which the stock market hard a down turn, but looking at a realistic plan for anyone doing investing for a lifetime would have been better served by buying just your average performing DOW stocks than they would have in gold.
Let's try another example. Anyone buying gold in 1980 at the then current price of $680, it would have "wiped them out" (not an accurate term, but on the same scale you refer to the getting "wiped out" on the stock market), and it would have taken until 2007 (27 YEARS LATER) to get back enough profits to recoup their losses (not including inflation).
Your advice is naive and short sighted. Let's talk in 5-10 years and see whose investments have done better, and who is "wiped out". See you then.
Most people should be in the stock market to some degree. You don't need any real super advanced knowledge to do well. Invest in 25-30 companies (diversify). Pick companies that you think will do well. Let that money sit and don't touch it.
Where people get things wrong is when they want to start micromanaging their portfolios, thinking they know better than everyone else, and they get burned. Don't ever invest in a company thinking to make a quick buck. Always buy with the intention of keeping it there for 2-3 years at a MINIMUM, and unless something earth shattering happens, KEEP IT THERE.

No, they said they were sick and tired of running into griefers, cheaters, and people who ruin the game for others.

That is how I always viewed the difference.

Well the "random" hack attempts that come in every 5 seconds looking for unpatched windows 95/xp boxes on the Internet.
But does it run linux?
Imagine a beowulf cluster of those.
And not first post!
Having been cut off from a remote server due to storm damage with only intermittent contact, I can see where it would be nice to have such capability.
So that when you do get connectivity back you spend the next 24 hours getting all the backlogged spam that got dropped?

You really think that androids outsell iOS devices 10 to 1?
Odd how the most used *nix is GPLed -Linux
