To be fair I invested in Take-two last year and sold 3 months ago because people are stupid and make me money by investing like sheep. Either i'm smart and making money from this or just stupid faster than everyone else. But possibly someone did this before me... prempting me i mean i wasnt quite peak to peak..... My point is, pretty much people dont care about companies at all they just want to get in first and out first. This causes wild fluxuations because there is lots of money to be made while its swining up and down.
Err why would they purposely screw up the code for a "Intoxilyzer 8000"? I mean they don't really get any benefit out of possibly making random ppl get charged. I'm as paranoid as the next guy but there has to be atleast some motive aside from being asinine.
Also, Intoxilyzer 8000 ??? The engineers must have loved naming that one. Might has well have called it the Drunkmaster 9000 so that everyone knows they are ripping off dilbert.
The problem occurred when you turn on itunes it tried to do an automatic sync (which you couldnt shut off) which it failed miserably and could delete all your music file in the folder you set. If you set this to root obviously it was quite a problem. I also heard that DRM in some versions could jump from one file to another. I never had this happen to me though so i assume that is just a myth however i keep it in mind.
I meant comparatively a bsod isnt bad. And yes windows should not have crashed BUT. Windows being an insane asylum itunes being trapped inside even with the pillow walls itunes managed to break something. Really, windows is trying but itunes had to go WAY out of its way to break itself. In the order of many thousands of lines just to screw up.
"Who says there working perfectly?" HAH usb is an international standard used by millions with no problems if itunes hadnt tried so hard it wouldnt have broken anything.
Most Antivirus software is worse than the average virus. 8Gigs and probably an active 150MB of ram usage maybe 10% of the CPU with daily scans taking 4hours. I've not used an antivirus in ages if you keep updated and dont be stupid things will never get that bad. (disclaimer: this does not apply for work computers which are meant to suck anyways)
- Unstalled othe mac applications without asking you
- Hijacked volume control from windows
- Modified code specifically to make it hard to work with the ipod outside of itunes
- Is the largest pusher of DRM technology
Really a BSOD isn't that big of a deal. And incase you are curious NO it isn't windows fault. Why is a music player installing drivers overtop of standard drivers that work perfectly? Aside from their hatred of doing things the same even when they are better only jobs knows. If windows tried to pull even half the bullship Apple has they would have been sued into dust. I find it disgusting its ok since its mac.
Is frustrating, oh no its only accurate for 150million years. JUST WAIT for the ID people to jump all over this and start with the whole dinosaurs didnt exist, invisible man made everything 5000years ago. *sighs* these people live in my neighborhood and are going to harass me with their ignorance again.
Yes blame printer drivers. Crappiest bloated pieces of shit ever to be coded. Print drivers on modern printers should be under 5MB MAXIMUM. Often print drivers on modern 5in1 w/es are in excess of 200MB! holy god, even taking the bullshit ap and ui they needlessly tacked on how could it have gotten that bloated. Even trying to make the program needlessly huge the compiler would probably compress it to less than anything i could code.
That didn't happen that much. Though there is a direct parallel to the current system war. the 360 is making the ps3s advantages meaningless since games are made for both systems. In computers however its not as big a deal since there isnt A mac and a pc. Also nothing is close to as proprietary, they can share alot of the basics to increase speed greatly.
"perpetual and irrevocable" avoids administrative hell. Atleast perpetual, irrevocable could possibly be changed without too much pain. I'm sure it would still cost them tons of money to restructure picassa.
You'd think they'd job the application process entirely. Based on usage patterns and IPs they can determine largely who is who and find their best cantidates.... Though really Google is probably looking for the neurotic/.er that cycles IPs and creates multiple identities to hide himself from 'them'.
LHC anyone? I believe it is trying to find the 'god particle' if that works then we CAN make our own dirt, at the cost of many trillions of dollars per kilo but still...
Also if you look at our genetic code, it was made by a total total moron. There are no standardized aps to read it. NOTHING is commented. There seems to be no good order of things. They use pointers and everything EVERYTHING is hack ontop of hack. We seriously need a complete rebuild of our genetic code. There is garbage that has been in the code for millenia. And don't get me STARTED on bugs, toooons of them, the things go down all the time with fatal errors without user input sometimes. As for uptime, 70years? PAH for something thats been a WIP for millions of years you think you could have hacked together something better than that.
It raises questions about souls to a degree. But really the idea of the soul is already in dissarary and in shambles if you follow even remotely updated science. Same goes for creationism. Science laughs at creationism since we have a whole wing of science (Biology) which essentially has the precept creationism is BS. Evolutionary biology, biochem, bioengineering, biophysics, biotech..... all require you to not believe in ID before you step into the classroom or nothing will make sense and you will indeed fail. Note the lack of highly educated biologists/IDers.
We aren't asking any new hard questions here we are just throwing another book on the overwhelming mound of evidence against ID and the soul.
You would think the sea monsters would come into question first. And if you read his post he mentioned he didn't like people reasoning away god. So i dont think any reasonable logical argument will help.
Yes, yes they will. You can even setup WOW/WC3 to work on LAN if you pirate it and its an mmo not remotely setup to work that way. Obviously not much is known about the guts of d3s net setup but i'm sure it will be similar. You'll likely need to download a fairly light ap along with d2 to run the server on one machine and have everyone connect to it. Essentially battlenet will be hosted on your lan.
We all no google beta isn't realllllly beta. BUT this is actually Google beta beta, i know how this can be confusing. Really they should come up with a word to distinguish release products alpha products and beta products but that would be too simple.
Also so you know, google's labeling things beta is not to get away with things, its so they can say 'man we are still in beta and our product is 10x better than yours, god you suck microsoft'.
They stay in beta until they have a 50%+ market share at which point they decide they are probably doing half decent and throw an official release party.
Talk about one sided reporting. But the China is an evil communist dictatorship where everything they do is evil and the US is perfect in comparison. Though with a name like Anti-Globalism we shouldnt really expect something other than xenophobia (yeahyeah strawman arguement but still)
co2 causes warming. Smog and other heavy pollutants still present in china (black smoke from coal,wood) but rare in the US causes cooling. But since the black stuff is bad looking we clear that up so we only get the warming effect of the co2.

EA could destroy GTA.
coder: We are thinking of adding a mission where you have to beat up a hooker for a pimp. You know be the muscle.
EA: lets send you to our committee
com1: Sounds wicked, but do you have to beat her?
com2: You know figures show that hookers offend some of our market, how would you feel about taking them out?
com3: Do you really NEED to say pimp? Cant he just be a .... mechanic.... that needs his wrench.
com4: Yeah the girl can be a valuable employee and she gives you the wrench, then you bring it to him.
com: Thanks for this great idea put it in right away.
Trust me, EA can take ANYTHING and make it crap.

Mine is a word, gets 1.72 million hits, if they want to find me power to them.
Itunes in past has:
- deleted your legit music
- Unstalled othe mac applications without asking you
- Hijacked volume control from windows
- Modified code specifically to make it hard to work with the ipod outside of itunes
- Is the largest pusher of DRM technology

You sir have never run a large site.
Yes it is, you obviously havent attended a software engineering class. Not all engineering is bridges and robots.
