Nah, just pointing out gratuitous acts of evil for what they are. Sure, I WANTED to believe the guy was a genius, but then I heard him speak on software. I WANTED to believe he cared about the future of humanity, and then I was confronted with his complete disregard for it.

Please tell me, as I've always wondered - does Space Nazi boot taste the same as regular Saudi/Russian funded billionaire boot, or better? He doesn't love you, you know. You don't have to keep up the act. He barely acknowledges his own 14+ children. And decreasing the size of government is not the same as watching children starve or die of AIDS because you prevented the delivery of critical food and medication, instead opting to let it rot. That's nazi work. Also, another classic Nazi tell is the Sieg Heil salute. If you look closely enough (eg. by opening your eyes, removing your fingers from your ears and stopping the nah nah nah nah chanting) you might spot it.

Comment Aureal 3D was the greatest loss (Score 1) 79

It's taken until the PS5 for 3D audio via headphones to become main-stream again after Creative Labs patent trolled Aureal's A3D audio tech into oblivion, bought the remains in a fire sale, then shelved the tech indefinitely. That tech was absolutely amazing, way ahead of its time, and Creative's absolutely rubbish EAX tech was just a reverb machine. That's what I remember Creative Labs for.

What most people don't seem to get is that Apple's desire to control everything and choose proprietary technologies over open standards isn't about customer lock-in or any other evil motive, it's simply that if they have control over all aspects of their product AND service, then they can guarantee a positive experience for their customers and do something about making it better. They started out at the mercy of a single carrier, which was very risky, you can completely understand the desire to look for alternative solutions.
