Yet the whole unison game engine uses it.
Wow, a whole game engine?
A lot more than that uses C#, but C# didn't take over, which of course is what Microsoft wanted. But it was never going to happen for many many reasons. That's why Microsoft has to use the EEE strategy, which at least is somewhat successful for them. Their ability to use it is waning as they become less relevant, but they remain hugely influential due to their massive installed base so they can still fuck things up pretty good and will likely be able to for decades yet.
By this reasoning, Microsoft should have taken over C++ a long, long time ago.
Their attempt to do that was called C#. It failed. Not everything someone tries succeeds. For example, you tried to be smart there, whoops!
Now do the USA
You just called bullshit on sometime I didn't say, clown. I never said all this were the fault of one party but YOU made it into that because YOU are hyper partisan. Get fucked with your hypocrisy.
There was literally nothing even slightly off topic about the GP comment.
Netflix pays ISPs to put a CDN server on their premises.
Hahhahahahahhahha
Your theory is that consumers know what's going on with their Internet access
Or anything else
Hahahahhahahha
If you think you can avoid politics when discussing anything important, you are delusional.
Everything important has political relevance.
It's a well-known fact that Reagan first shit up education in California and then went on to do it nationally. It's a less well-known fact, but still a fact, that it was done for the purpose of getting rapeublicans (which hilariously autocorrected to "trollbags") elected by avoiding an "educated proletariat" (those are the search terms that will get you more citations than you can eat.)
You can't avoid politics when talking about how shit education is in America because it is for fundamentally political reasons.
I live in Humboldt which is chock-full of maggots. It's sad. I've seen more Confederate flags here than I did in Texas, even year on year. Plus a shitload of "dead pedophiles don't reoffend" stickers on obvious rapeublicans' vehicles, fucking weirdo hypocrites.
But California is still majority blue, so it's not all that relevant.
What I think is more interesting is states like TX where they are only whatever color because of bullshit maps.
Nobody is seeking any advice from a maggot
Oh good, I always wanted the world's Internet access to be controlled by a space Nazi
Laws are useless in general.
And by the time you get AT & T to fulfill the fiber delivery, Starlink will be providing Internet at Fiber Speeds to the whole planet. Starlink V3 is coming sooner (Within months) than the snails at the terrestrial providers could imagine.
THE SLAsHDoT STAFF PUT "R" "E" "I" "C" "H" IN THE WORD FILRER AGAIN
THESE FUCKS ARE LITErALLY TRYING TO PReVeNT US FROM SAYING BAD THING ABOUT NAZIS
AGAIN
SLaSHDOT IS SOME NAZI SHIT
There are people he who think that you are deranged you know. Same with me.
Yep. I do know that. But that's not what I'm talking about here.
You might not like it, but your idea that we actually attack people and in large part because we politically disagree with them
I'll readily admit to [verbally] attacking people whose politics are directly comparable to the Third Re!ch.
is how we get the deranged (in my opinion) idea that young people are smart, and older people are senile.
I feel like some steps are missing there.
So what do you propose? Involuntary Euthanasia? A person hits 65, and it's over?
I already proposed competence tests. They should be medically designed, not politically, but naturally a bipartisan committee would have to argue about that and would probably fuck it up. That doesn't change the principle, though.
Yes, term limits are a sideways solution, but one that doesn't allow the Feinstiens and McConnell's and a few others to make it a career out of government.
No, they don't solve the problem anyway, because a person who was just elected can be incompetent.
What determines competency to hold office? I want people better than basic.
I do too, but I don't think we can reasonably hold people to an even higher standard. If the voters want to be represented by someone just like them, that's their prerogative, even if it's stupid.
But since you think my methiod is bad, how bow outlining yours, from local to presidential. What tests, what to do with failures.
I am not qualified to determine what tests we should use. I want that determined by medical professionals, not some asshole on a website, even if that asshole is me.
Your code should be more efficient!
