Comment Re: Karma to burn so fuck you. (Score 1) 154

Nope. Magento is not for eBay. It's a general-use ecommerce platform, currently the biggest one. I don't kid myself, I work with that stuff mate, I am currently working at a Payment Service Provider and we have our own plugins for the mayor ecommerce platforms (Magento, Opencart, Prestashop etc.) You don't even need a Payment Service Provider: If you can afford your own PCI-DSS certification you can request your own routes with VISA, Mastercard and/or Amex... or even just put your account details on a page and you can have your own webstore (absolutely not related to eBay) or set up an Intranet selling service or whatever you fancy, even abuse it as a blog with no payment service at all. And note that when I say Magento I also mean all the other ecommerce platforms. My favourite is Prestashop, I am currently getting myself used to Opencart, but Magento is the market leader if you are doing anything related with ecommerce (be it SEO, integration or working for a merchant) you won't be able to avoid it.

Nope, I was talking about the web shop ;) It's done by eBay, it's open source and if you pay for it you can have a ready-off-the-shelf solution. http://magento.com/ There are actually a lot of people making money with it creating, setting up and customizing web stores for online merchants and the same goes for Opencart or similar. Even the once so geek-centric Drupal with e-commerce plugin is now very popular and of course, people are making money with it, quite a lot actually. I actually can't name a single non-open source e-commerce platform.

Comment Russia wont win fuck (Score 1) 503

There is no way that the fucking Russians win a fuck. They have already fucked it up to such extend that they can do what they want. Even if it happens to be true and the aricraft was downed by an UFO filled with Nazis from Outer Space no fucking body will believe these bastards no matter how much bullshit they spew.

The Russians are always depicted as ruthless and intelligent, but they are showing that they are just a bunch of idiotic assholes with no fucking idea of diplomacy or how to by sneaky.

They already got what they needed, the Krim, raised the pensions of everybody to the Russian standards and everybody is happy, the Ukrainans could have lived with that, the EU didn't gave a flying fuck (but made believe we did), the gas pipelines were kept open and everybody was happy.

why the fuck do these idiots keep on waging war and supporting the separatists? They have nothing to win, there are no strategic bases, no oil, no nothing, just a bunch of retarded shitheads and whores.

But no, they had to continue supporting them and stretching the situation until it broke.

Sorry for all the swearing, four of the victims were from my town, Hilversum, and it utterly angers me. Stupidity always anger me, but this just brings me to the point of explosion.

Fuck you Putin.

Comment Study showing that all the Dutch are Metalheads (Score 1) 710

A study conducted by me among 250 Dutch guys and chicks clearly demonstrates that all the Dutch are metalheads, preferring Brutal Dead Metal to other genres and regularly mosh. All the Dutch are also assisting next July 27 to a concert featuring Obituary and a few other Dead Metal bands (brutal and OSDM). The favourite bands of all the Dutch are Bolt Thrower, Dead, Necros Christos and Nile. All the Ducth carry war vests with patches of their favourite bands.

I took my sample from my friends in the Facebook Group "Dead Metal Addicts"... it's as valid as the one in the article, isn't iit? The population is 250, the same as in the featured study.

BTW, when I was studying about samples in statitics intro... I can't recall how many were needed but for all I know If I had presented a dataset of 250 samples I would have been laughed at.

Nevermind. Anybody has the phone number of Mr Cameron? If he pays well I can make a study with 50 stoners from the coffe-shop around the corner demonstrating that gravity is a lie fabricated by the IPCC to tax the fuck out of the British Worker :), 15000 pounds and it's yours (I'm cheap)!!

Comment My question: How did they know? (Score 1) 710

I am not quite sure, but this reeks like stupid and badly cooked up statistics about a polemic subject with the sole aim of getting people to read the paper and amke a name for the authors.

It starts from the very title "bla, bla" It should have specified that they they are AMERICAN subjects who do that. Else they wouldn't be able to explain policies passed in the EU... yes, yes, we all know, the Governements are Big and Bad. but WE vote them. And down here we actually have a good degree of control over them.

Well, I have found a crack in the very logic of this "study" from the very beginning ;)

Sorry for that guy. Rembmeber: THe IPCC is EVIL because it wants to take our guns!!!

One possible reason that things aren't going according to plan is that there never was a plan in the first place.
