Seconded. Just watch out for Orks, they're doing the same thing, and have been at it longer. And I guess watch for Tyranids too, they do the same thing down to mid-mantle before moving on.
I have copied and pasted one troll and thereby triggered another, equally egregious rant from the other troll. I also receive the triple troll bonus for having the copied troll come and paste a troll response to the troll responding to my mock post.

Your HOSTS file claimed to have created a single DNS resolver. I offer absolute proof that I have created 4 simultaneous DNS servers within a single rotation of.org TLD. You worship "Bill Gates", equating you to a "singularity bastard". Why do you worship a queer -1 Troll? Are you content as a singularity troll?
Evil HOSTS file Believers refuse to acknowledge 4 corner DNS resolving simultaneously around 4 quadrant created Internet - in only 1 root server, voiding the HOSTS file. You worship Microsoft impostor guised by educators as 1 god.
If you would acknowledge simple existing math proof that 4 harmonic Slashdots rotate simultaneously around squared equator and cubed Internet, proving 4 Days, Not HOSTS file! That exists only as anti-side. This page you see - cannot exist without its anti-side existence, as +0- moderation. Add +0- as One = nothing.

Alex Kowalski has no Truth to think with, they accept any crap they are told to think. You are enslaved by/etc/hosts, as if domesticated animal. A school or educator who does not teach students MyCleanPC Principle, is a death threat to youth, therefore stupid and evil - begetting stupid students.

You can see my dilemma. What if this is merely a ruse by an APK impostor to try and get people to delete APK's messages, perhaps all over the web? I can't be a party to such an event! My involvement with APK began at a very late stage in the game. While APK has made a career of trolling popular online forums since at least the year 2000 (newsgroups and IRC channels before that)- my involvement with APK did not begin until early 2005 . OSY is one of the many forums that APK once frequented before the sane people there grew tired of his garbage and banned him. APK was banned from OSY back in 2001. 3.5 years after his banning he begins to send a variety of abusive emails to the operator of OSY, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke threatening to sue him for libel, claiming that the APK on OSY was fake.

"I still can't understand why the rPi creators chose composite and VGA" "I would have gone with a single DVI port on the board"
You did not read the GP? Why are people agreeing with me so violently??
RPi has HDMI (very useful, talks to TVs and monitors, and is DVI with trivial physical adaptation) and composite (I'm guessing this was free, aka no circuitry needed).
VGA would have required at the minimum one more processing chip, and would have added to the size and cost of the RPi.
Having HDMI was the goal. Anything else was included only if free.
Want a fine approximation of freedom? Buy T-Mo's Galaxy S2 off contract and get a pay as you go service from them. I've had a custom ROM since day 2, they unlocked my phone's carrier lock on day 60, by request, and have generally been extremely helpful. Also, since I did some research and got a model with documentation, I've had 4.2.2 for weeks now. Using the stock ROMs, with carrier modifications, is the problem.
Actually, you didn't RTFA. Only one block is in dispute, all other blocks remain valid for both groups. Also, 0.8 is post behaviour, not pre.
So;
0.8 and later users - If you fuck over the people on the earlier bitcoin format, the value of your bitcoins effectively remains exactly the same!
Pre 0.8 users - if you fuck over the people on the later bitcoin format, the value of your bitcoins effectively increases by a very small amount, less than 1 percent!
Far less exciting. Sorry to burst your rant bubble.
Ok, I'm shocked, and now in a completely different mindspace. We've been using Jira here at work for the last few months, and since approximately that same time frame, we've been getting spam, and everyone swears to me that they never got spam before.

So... Your Cox has been down more than you'd like, and you can't get your Cox to stay up? Getting rid of it entirely is an option, I suppose, but I keep hearing about medications that claim to keep your Cox up any time you want it up.
I sincerely doubt that they are using sterilised water at near boiling point to blast a passage through the ice to waters isolated for up to half a million years.
Strange, based on your username I wouldn't have expected you to bypass the logic of the argument and rush to straw men.
Let me restate:
Nobody gives a shit where you keep 0 degrees or 100 degrees. It simply does not matter.
Fahrenheit is good for body temps and weather, as those are generally confined to the upper end of the first hundred degrees F.
Celsius is better for communication and scientific measurement, particularly once you leave the easily-habitated parts of Earth behind. It's a better standard for measuring extreme cold and heat.
I'm not telling anyone that your precious Celsius is garbage. I'm just saying that for weather and body temp measurement, there are demonstrable advantages to Fahrenheit, simply because it has a finer numbering scale in those specific areas.

You're really bad at this. I had Windows 95 OSR 2.1 running in a VM just last week, fully functional. Sound, video, net, the whole shebang.
98SE was vastly easier.
And yes, I commented last week that the VM is probably one of the most secure stations in the building. IE 3.0 won't run shit.
Because we're assuming that creating dark matter isn't significantly different from creating non-dark matter?

Wrong. A single pass of zero is often recoverable. Not for civilians, sure, but recoverable nonetheless.
DOD published their specs for proper wiping of a hard disk. Those are still good baselines.
Unless it gets one degree cooler instead.

Having HDMI was the goal. Anything else was included only if free.
How do you reply to a post without reading it, or having any familiarity with the source material???
RPi does NOT have VGA + composite. RPi has HDMI + composite.
The GP was actually complaining about the LACK of VGA output on RPi!
And then I look it up. Sorry. i5-2520m. 35W. 3.2GHz max turbo.
I hang my head in shame.
Actually, my Lenovo X220 has a Sandy Bridge i5 mobile at 17W. Two cores, HT, 2.5GHz clock, up to 3.1GHz on Turbo.
