yeah so let's take out copyrights from everyone involved in the nazi system and their estates...

uh.. no.

as far as I understand the diaries were published by other people - not by him - who inherited the copyrights to them. basically there would need to be some special clause to put them in public domain.

because they're plentiful and you can age camping grounds etc with them.

there's send but it's only for stuff like playback through car speakers and such.

not too many phones have that these days either, some fully loaded models. my old nokia 808 had it but it was fully loaded.. fm receive with rds too

but the result isn't known until you calculate it.

you could use all the energy in the world to calculate it and still not finish calculating the set. that's the how every reference to infinite would break the universe.. the definition is in this universe, BUT the results are not calculated unless someone calculates them.

comparing the result to complexity of the universe is a bit silly though since mandelbrot as a set you could zoom infinitely AND _never_ find an image of the universe or billy gatesy(though this is a bit harder to prove, but there is no reason to believe the set would start to produce such images when zoomed deep enough).

death penalty:

for the innocent it's too cruel and for the guilty it's too easy.

it's just a revenge fest really. it used to be a public show and it still is to some extent.

those plants increase entropy, as do you when you spend energy observing them.

math, as a set of rules and logical conclusions made from them, doesn't depend on the universe. that's whats magical about it. some alien force should come to same math conclusions, including mandelbrot set.

it's not "above" physical reality, it's more like parallel.

it's a real shame that the voyager doesn't include a mandelbrot set.

I don't want to play NES games.

I want to play games like Ultima Underworld, System Shock and other innovative titles that had great stories, atmosphere and gameplay and felt alive.

Skyrim comes close but it doesn't really feel like 20 years of advancement to be honest.

the retro fad is.. well, it's lazy, from game design perspective almost as lazy as cod.

this is just ridiculous.

BTW Microsoft already has android integrated maps, bing etc etc. In Asia you can still go to a shop and big a Nokia X - with microsoft services.

they did shut down their own sw marketplace and replaced it with operas now though iirc.

bottom line here is this: cyanogen mod guys can go fuck themselves and MS doesn't have a friggin clue what it wants to do(first shutting down their, bought from nokia, android development and then paying some other guys to do the exact same fucking thing).

because when you build a new city, there's no money at first to do such a thing.

when there's money to do it due to having enough density, then it's too late.

if there's shitloads of money and the tunnel becomes necessary, then it's done(like in any big city in the west it is done).

sure you will, they have different uses.

thats why your modern normal smartphone has both a gyro and an acceleration detector chip. older phones tend to just have the acceleration detector. you can use the accel chip for detecting orientation, if you are not slowing or speeding up into some direction...

sure.. the gyrochips might not have an actual old school spinning device inside but they function the same.

no, it's the marketing budget.

why? if it's "aaa" is decided before release.

case in point, aliens: colonial marines. piece of shit with shit assets, but the pre-release marketing material was good and they had pre-release events for the press in a big way.

also, I would go further to argue that some titles some companies tried to label as "indie" were AAA titles by this standard too. like, you know, Journey etc. supposedly indie titles YET somehow they had pre-release money to send press packs to every known gaming publication worldwide.

yeah the "facers" are the most annoying.

especially after you realize that they're employed by greenpeace, unicef or whoever the fuck and don't even give a shit about whatever cause they're trying to raise money for.

I used to be approached by such friggin daily walking in Helsinki. I mean, they speak that the roma beggars are a problem but you will encounter MORE "facers" for charities than those. they use same tactics to get your money as the roma too, moral blackmailing etc usual stuff. the only difference is that the roma sit quietly by whilst the facers will try to get you to sign up to give monthly donations. they don't even fucking accept cash, because it's so much better business to get your phone number and monthly automatic donation!

it was never an AAA studio to begin with by anyone's standards.

Borderlands pre-sequel is kind of an expansion pack, not a fresh AAA title as such - if they spent even near 5 millions on making it, then they fucked up baaaaaaaaaaaaaadly.

and it seems it just had shitty management.

it's a thai. I'm surprised they even bothered with the freezing. country full of medical/magical/tech scams of varying nature.
