I wasn't alive in the 70's so I don't know if the original trilogy had this kind of saturation, but I am SO fucking sick of seeing and hearing about fucking star wars.
It did, to the extent possible back then. We've got so many more advertising channels these days it's nearly ubiquitous.
Because Lucas only ever made fine art and only marketed Star Wars to the snobbiest of snobs. He also only did it for artistic integrity and never for the money which is why he's so poor and starving.
Rekt.
Your ideas intrigue me and I would like to sign up for your newsletter.
These retards are going to bitch about anything that isn't the actual episodes 4-6. You just don't understand, those movies were PERFECT. Anything that tries to live up to those literal pinnacles of cinema is doomed to fail.
Can you please just cut to the chase and admit that you would have hated anything that dared call itself a Star Wars movie that wasn't part of your precious nostalgia? We get it, you're one of the True Star Wars fans, you've memorized every single line in episodes 4-6, you've got a room in your house converted to a shrine to Star Wars.
Nothing is ever going to live up to the perfection you've ascribed to the original trilogy in your nostalgia fueled fervor. Nothing will ever recapture the wonder and joy of your seeing the original trilogy as a child. But you're delusional if you expect the rest of us to believe in your little fantasy that the original movies were anything more than cheesy fun movies.
You can wallpaper over the flaws in the original movies all you want, just don't go spreading bullshit about the new ones.
Honestly, what the fuck did people expect from a god damned Star Wars movie? Was it a "safe" movie? Of course it was! Were you expecting some experimental art piece? GTFO with that shit. Jesus.
No.
But in the true capitalistic fashion, there would be an app for every taxi company. Some might band together and unite under a single one, as long as they each only serviced a certain area. The general quality of the apps would range from "truly abysmal" to "kind of works." To top it off, while it might be OK for locals to have a favorite cab company and get their app, how is a visitor supposed to choose from the sundry list of possible apps? If I'm traveling often, do I now have to have a half dozen taxi apps for every city I find myself in?
here's a Visual Studio plugin for Minecraft mods now, and I'm pretty sure the port for XBox isn't java. It's at rev 1.8 and 2.0 probably isn't far off.
It's not. But apparently the Windows 10 version is based of the current Minecraft PE version, which is written in C++. The Xbox version would be a bad base since it can't do infinite worlds and probably has huge swaths of it written specifically for controllers, etc.
They haven't been too specific about any of it, but I would imagine that this Windows 10 edition is going to be the only edition before too long. Maybe they'll have a Mac version. Linux is probably fucked.
The fanboys don't want to admit it, but as far as I'm concerned the writing is on the wall for the existing Java version.
I upgraded to Windows 10 from 7, and it left Grub untouched. Of course, it still says "Boot Windows 7," but that's not very important.
I would imagine, however, that doing a full install might mess with the existing boot loader configuration. There are probably other variables at work as well, such as which drive has the MBR, which drive is being used for Windows, etc.
Keeping covering for them you fascist goon. It's obvious that these sites are shifting back to the old media propaganda model, but they can always rely on cult memebers like yourself to shit on us who call them out on it. Go eat a fucking subway.
Hear hear! Fellow patriot, it's quality comments like yours that are the proverbial baby being thrown out with the bath water. Without well informed comments like this, how does society expect the sheeple to ever get a clue? Please, I beg of you, don't ever give up the good fight!
But the Master wants us to play with you!
Don't worry, the automakers are taking care of that problem by... tracking you every where you go and when you do so, so they can sell it to marketers.
If you thought "owning" a car somehow got you out of the ubiquitous tracking and data collection that is coming to define this century, you're a fool.
They only did the version numbers like that because stupid developers write crap like
if (WINVER_MAJOR != 6) {
and other assorted dumb-fuckery that'd break if Windows 7 were actually Windows 7.0. Add in the Java way of determining OS that returns strings like "Windows 95" with which morons write
if (System.getProperty("os.name").startswith("Windows 9")) {
because they wanted to handle both Win95 and Win98 at once.
The actual version number of Windows 10 is... 10.0, so they get to start from a nice round number and increment sanely (maybe, too many windows devs are still too dumb to live).
You can still buy keyboards with a DIP switch to swap the CTRL and Caps Lock keys.
That sounds expensive and unnecessary. It's pretty simple to remap (or swap) the keys with software, even Windows will let you do it, albeit with a registry change. I typically just remap caps to control. Can't say that I've missed caps lock, it isn't that hard to hold down shift and type. The only problem is being used to having a control key instead of caps is using computers where it isn't remapped. I'm forever turning on caps lock when I have to use other peoples computers. Grrr
