I think the last time I saw it was when I connected to a Raspberry Pi last year with some free X11 client or other.
I cracked up laughing when it appeared.

I dunno, I always get a big belly laugh whenever I log into something and see that horrible 1980s B&W X11 desktop, complete with ugly 'X' cursor.
"Before doing that, we want to try and work out some general principles about how to handle core X fill styles."
Use textures! And stencil bitplanes!
They're only breaking the spirit of the law, not the letter.
That makes it perfectly OK, just ask the NSA if you don't believe me.

. . so people cant wear skirts anymore? Sharia Law is over there . . .
What about windy days? Can we outlaw them, too.
And escalators. They often give people an eyeful of thigh (and not all of it is pretty, ew!)
Many upskirts will show less than a miniskirt or booty shorts. How will that factor in to the new law? Will the length of the skirt be taken into account?
So many questions....
DirectX11 was back ported to Vista.
The reason DirectX 10/11 was not backported to XP was not because of mean old bad microsoft but rather WinXP is such an obsolete archaic OS that is fundamentally different.
Weird that the system requirements for DX11 suddenly changed later on - to allow XP!

Some people might think that it was mean old bad microsoft after all...that the "obsolete archaic OS" thing was just a lie.
Don't forget that DX11.1 mysteriously started working on Windows XP when Microsoft decided it could:

( System requirements: Windows XP Service Pack 2 )
It was necessary evil to be able to publish new video driver model architecture with neat features, get over it.
LOL!
People managed to make DX10 run on XP without official support from MS/NVIDIA/AMD: https://www.google.es/search?q...
Later on...guess what? Microsoft decided to allow DX11 to run as well: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us...
There's no relation between an operating system and the feature set exposed by the video driver. It's just another API.
LOL! You must be new here....
Every release of DirectX has been used as a tool to try to get people to upgrade their version of Windows. This will be no different.
Sometimes it's better to move.
The age of consent is pretty far down the list of things that need fixing. If the age of consent is keeping you awake at night then western society as a whole must be absolutely intolerable.
I suspect the real number is a secret but you can safely bet he owns quite a few of them....
Different species can often interbreed:
Horses/donkeys
Lions/Tigers
etc.
The offspring aren't always sterile, either. Mules are usually sterile but ligers can often be fertile: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Bengal cats are an artificially created crossbreed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
The original ("rather stupid") answer assumed the parent was simply a troll who was trying a variant of the creationist's "Irreducible complexity" argument.
Whoosh!
