Well, Al will be quite disappointed in you for the Reagen reference, shouldn't you be trying to help everyone forget that your country elected a bad actor President? I mean what's next, a pop singer in congress? A wrestler Governor? Or even, *gasp*, A bodybuilder?

You may think that your inane comments in this thread are just that, irrelevant nonsense and that only serve to illustrate your lack of creativity (which everyone is familiar with anyway) but IT'S MUCH WORSE THAN THAT. When you make Reagen references, you fuel the Voodoo of the Transdimensional Luciferian Lizard conspiracy and help them advance their evil plot.

It is your fault Joel.

Repent.

Just because Bob was your inspiration does not mean you can blame him for your disgusting acts. Not Bob, Not Jody, Not even Helter Stupid.

Yeah, when your dad first wrote them twenty years ago. As I said, let your mom suffer in private. The topic here is how ugly _you_ are. And quite frankly, while I agree those quotes you posted are quite accurate, your mom is ugly, standing beside you she at least sort of looks human. You look like Telly Savalas would have if he had severe Elephantitis and colony of plague carrying rats made their home in his nose. Only fatter.

What the hell are you blathering about? Do you actually think any of that is funny? Or even coherent? I'm glad you are proud of posting jokes so stupid that you don't even read them yourself. What a great contribution!

First of all this is completely irrelevant. We where talking about the value of source code in recompiling your application for a new server with a new CPU or a new OS. Your whole talk of subsets is irrelevant and is not what Volker was talking about, despite your desperation for a comment to make.

Second of all, what on earth do you mean by "the world I desire?" Nothing in my suggestions prevents modularity or distribution, if anything it actually encourages it.

Hate to tell you this, but I never suggested you should. This is just yet another fallacious argument, I only claimed that it is //sometimes// usefull to have a human readable format, not always. I never said any of my suggestions applied in every case, only that they where _good_ suggestions. In order to dispute them, you have to explain why they are _bad_ suggestions, not just chose random examples where they may not apply. But alas, expecting logic from the likes of you and Volker seems to be unrealistic.

Anyway, on the off chance that somebody is actually interested; In the case of something like video, while proprietary codecs may be usefull for delivery in some cases, I would recommend a reasonably open archive/master format though, like MPEG (VP3? Theora?). That would be the be the equivalent of the 'Human Readable' part.

And I would still go with the self-contained, self-describing part of suggestion, not keep my archives/masters exclusively in some incomprehensible filesystem blob that is only readable by a third party deamon to which I have no source code. That is if this data has a long life span or must be shared externally.

But here I am talking seriously again, when I know perfectly well that all the likes of you and Volker are here to do is talk crap, sorry, I'll try harder to stay on topic: You're so stupid your house burned down because you wanted to call 911, but you couldn't find your phone's '11' button.

That's right assclown, stick with making up arguments yourself, you only make a fool of yourself when you try to dispute real arguments made by others.

It's cute of you to worry about my future though. Since you are so concerned, you can help me out: stop driving, stop eating industrial meat, and encourage your fellow citizens to learn enough about history and politics to make your country less dangerous to the rest of the world. Thanks. My future will be far more secure with your help. Received on Wed Jun 02 2004 - 09:57:36 CDT
