  3. well on Purported ACTA Wishlist Would Put DMCA To Shame · · Score: 1

    its easy. first, self centeredness is, as it goes by definition, being more concerned and concentrated on the self than anything else. as it goes to extremes, the self concentration proportionally follows.

    this, in turn provides that less attention paid to anything outside of the self, thereby reflecting eventually on the behaviour of the individual in regard to external circumstances.

    its like a tunnel vision, they increasingly contain their consciousness to their self, and what they see as the extension of their selves. therefore, little time is spent on what other people think, do etc, unless they are a real, looming, in-the-face threat. you can see the examples of this on prominent self centered celebrities, or dictators in history.

    apparently 'the people' is not being taken as much a threat by those people in question.

  4. what kind of question is this ? on Purported ACTA Wishlist Would Put DMCA To Shame · · Score: 1

    How do you sleep at night,

    what kind of question is this ? do you think those people care for ANYthing you mention there ? are they of the kind to suffer sleepless nights because they did something bad ? do you think do they care for ANYone ?

    i get appalled at the goodwilled people's attitude towards people with evil intent. they think the one with evil intent should have something in common with them. they dont. its the way of self centeredness, selfishness. they do not care about you, your country, your economy, your progress, earth, human civilization, its future. thats what self centeredness is.

    im sure that some of you reading this comment have thought 'well, word evil is a bit extreme', or thought that it is a common usage of the word as it goes, like a metaphor.

    i am not. im purposefully and intendedly calling these people 'evil' like the evil in the bible, torah, bhagavad gita, whatever holy text, or in lord of the rings.

    evil is not something that is comic book style, or filmesque, sinister looking people with overly violent or disturbed personalities. evil is something that comes out from simple plain extreme selfishness, like the people who are involved in riaa ranks and their bosses.

    and evil is not an extremely vile and sinister plot to take over the world with slaves and whatnot, these are so outdated, if ever existed.

    evil is simple selfishness that always puts itself in a socially acceptable context to reach its goals. in middle ages it was for religion, and anybody who were challenging self interests of any powerful party was a heretic, and burned, in late 18th century it was 'traitors' of the nation.

    now the socially acceptable context private interests put their selfish practice in happens to be 'but its for the children' and digital 'rights'.

    evil is not enslaving 1000s of people and torturing them for some contrived ritual to gain more power. evil is simply obliterating one of the greatest inventions mankind has ever made, just out of pure, unbridled greed, heedless of the costs to humanity in the long run.

    evil is practically what we are talking about here.

  6. Stupid riaa. killing the internet for united state on Purported ACTA Wishlist Would Put DMCA To Shame · · Score: 2, Interesting

    s.

    up until now everything regarding internet ranging from major routers to domain name registration regulatory agency have been in united states, run by united states agencies and firms. everyone was content with it, with a few moaning voices on minor stuff.

    however if these faggots' sponsored bill passes, it will no longer be the case. no country will want to leave their connectivity to the world in a country which has a senate that is so easily made a bitch by some private interest profit groups, regardless of the excuses that are made and regardless of the pressure from their internal equivalents of riaa. national security interests and economic prospects of every country surpasses copyright shill rights.

    i can cite you a number of recent big profile cases in which such private interest pressure groups , and even international ones, have found their cases thrown out by local and national governments or courts. im sure there are more among you who can remember these, and other examples.

    result would be separate internets, one that is run by other sources, like u.n. or european union, or whichever local gathering of nations would create, and one that is run with corporate shills in america.

    i dont need to tell you how badly this would affect everything american on the web, economically. and change how things work.

    so what these 'sources' are saying is that, you should put a bush guy back in the white house, because they need one there to make sure their asses do not get burnt, when they are no longer in power.

  18. even better on Modders Get Nvidia's PhysX To Run On ATI Cards · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    4870 is designed to be cheaper, less energy consuming, less heat producing and scalable.

    its not as powerful as the 280, BUT, it is designed to be a little bit less powerful.

    ati is going the scalability way. because it consumes less energy, costs less, takes up less space, you can get 2 4870s lower than the price of a 280, and get more power with lower energy consumption and heating. this allows you to be able to feasibly scale your graphic needs. need more power ? add a 3rd (you way surpassed 280's power with 2 btw). doing graphic design? why, add a 4th. and this is without speaking of 4870x2 cards that have 2 gpus on 1 card. want more bang ? why sure, your 4870 gpu consumes less watts per gpu power than an 280, therefore you can overclock it much more efficiently without listening to a goddamn fan blowing your brain away with its noise.

    nvidia cant do that. they gone the big monolithic gpu way, doing one single, huge, powerful gpu.

    it ends up requiring much more power, generating much more heat, taking up SO much space that even single one on a card and its needed stock fan takes up close to 30 cm space ... nvidia wont be able to fit 2 280 gpus in one card. neither physically a circuit board can take it, nor any pci slot can hold the weight with the added weight of the huge gpus and fan. doing a sli ? no go sir, first, you need HUGE space, second, you need a very powerful psu to support those humongous gpus. and big heat generation and accompanying fans to cool the cards comes with the package. unless you are someone that loves neverending multiple fan hissing at the dead of the night while playing your game, you will be annoyed.

    there goes another battle of the graphic cards. from the looks of it, ati not only won big, but also hit it big and made a revolution of sorts - all welcome the era of small but efficient, scalable gpus and neverending modding mania.
