At 8:42 pm EST today on Iron Citadel (an East Coast server) I'm sitting at 1 hour 15 mins que to get into my server.

I hope they fix this or make switching servers free.

Have you considered that Apply might just want to make money off everyone else and is using this as an opportunity to do so?

Apple is a corporation, not an ideology, as such they desire profits, even if it means they can legally steal them from others.

Doctors charge what insurance companies pay.

The moment I required email addresses was the moment I got focused by some stupid Russian botters and spammed with new accounts.

Perhaps the students should pick the school based on, what, I don't know, the quality of the program that they will major in?

What your describing is an idiotic program that results in the creation of poor students. If someone is actually willing to pay for this program, it's their own fault. Your right that just because someone has a degree, that doesn't make them qualified. When I step out of school however, my finely tuned resume will have 4 years in the Air Force as a 2E2 (electronics / computer technician), a 4.0 GPA at a great private school where my max class size in CS has been 17, multiple contributions to open source projects, solid coding skills, research assistant experience, my own apps, and 12 years of working at diverse jobs, many of which were computer fields, all with 0 debt.

Guess what, I shifted my life and made the sacrifices to get where I am. These people going through school don't have to bury themselves in debt over crappy classes. It's their own fault if they screw themselves over.

This just in, it takes a lot of energy to maintain those speeds. When we invent a new power source that can easily sustain those demands then speed will drastically increase to practical levels once again.

Until then, we're stuck with fossil fuel.

If it's a trick, we'll soon be seeing news stories about the 30 fishing boats I rammed with my robot.

Given that it learns, it also picks up stupid information from the masses that taught it.

I just played twenty rounds against this software on advanced and beat it with 8 me, 8 ties, 4 it.

I think it might slowly learn based on a huge amount of rounds, but being a human I got pretty bored with this computer very quickly.

caannnaaAADDAAA!!!! *shakes fist*

*Do Not*

However, a lot of patients are now being rewarded that do show that deep of specifications.

They are more likely to try and patent, "a device that opens a garage door remotely" than, "a radio transmitter than uses *** frequency to connect to a remote receiving unit, which then signals a motor box to open a garage door."

These vague and stupid software patents are giving companies blank checks to cash in against anyone who even comes close to their already invented idea.

There is a limited amount of possible software inventions in our world, just as there are a limited amount of practical designs for wheels. When companies own the practical ideas, nobody else can use them without paying for them, even if the first company didn't actually do jack about it or with it.

All software patients should be dissolved, for the sake of our country and innovation. If we don't keep the momentum going here, we'll be left behind by other countries.

Well, I typically buy it for cheap, but I guess I won't be purchasing any more Trend Micro software.

And if he's fired or gets hit by a bus, everything burns to the ground and they spend millions fixing it.

Gogo hospital?

Oh no, someone edited a public domain novel and changed a word that they noticed someone found offensive to another word that carries the same implications.

Big deal.

It's public domain, it's not the government doing it, it's a freakin private citizen. Sheesh, overreact much?
