I read until he told MS to call Safari for help. This “web developer” is a moron if he honestly thinks Safari is a better browser than anything.
I found the article where that’s posted and it made me lol really hard. His complaint was about how a javascript wasn’t working right in IE but was in FF. He didn’t say it but I imagine it was originally programmed to work in FF as others replied saying they were getting the same errors after copy/pasting the js code from somewhere else. His complaint is about how java is interacting with IE, explain again how that’s directly Microsoft’s fault because last I checked Java releases updates all the time. If their product isn’t interacting with another product, is it right to blame the product that was there first because it didn’t adapt itself to however you felt like injecting your program into it?
This is the same crap people pulled when they blamed Vista for not having drivers for a product Microsoft didn’t make.
What it all boils down to is that he wants all his firefox only scripts to work on IE. He’s forgetting that IE and FF are very different and their scripts and plugins will never be interchangeable, just like Opera isn’t interchangeable with Safari. It’s an unreasonable expectation.
I have noticed though that FF “developers” are getting increasing *edited*-ish as time goes on. They now have a script websites can use that deny access to the website if the browser isn’t firefox. This doesn’t make people switch, it makes them rage. If you want us to switch you need to change you advertising scheme so that you brag about features that IE *doesn’t* have. The FF website’s “features” page doesn’t have a single thing that IE8 doesn’t have and the “security” list is using IE6 as a comparison.
Come on, you guys can do better. Dice’s broken english can do better than that.

sense when was this a serious post? OH you really believe that Obama is a Nazi? Socialist yesterday, Nazi today, what’s next? Terrorist tomorrow? LOL now that is funny.I do believe you missed the point of my last post.
Move your Monopoly piece back 2 spaces and try again.
Ok NuRayz, I got you thinking, now think about this.
From the start Obama has said there would be no rationing of care. Now we see that if there is rationing of care, the weakest in society will be the least likely to get care and the CBO predicts the costs will far exceed what Obama has said all along. If there’s not enough money for this program because it’s exceeded predicted cost, as every government program ever proposed by either party has done, then there will be rationing based on this rationale.
The biggest problem I have with the new system is the forceful reduction in pharmaceutical costs. Now before you say it, yes I know they’re more expensive than they should be. A good chunk of the money paid for pills goes towards future drug research, which I don’t mind paying for. It makes sense that the more you depend on the current generation of drugs, the more you should be giving to help pay for the next generation of drugs. Now if the drug companies are forced to significantly lower their prices, that’s going to also significantly reduce or eliminate their research efforts. Besides laying off thousands of chemists and engineers, it puts the collective global society at a medical disadvantage when you shut down the world’s largest medical contributor.
Sure our current system is as expensive as hell and sure it’s way cheaper in other countries. What makes me ok with our system is that if I need a proceedure I can go someplace in my own country, have their doctors diagnose it one day and be treated the next. There’s no rationing.
I think the biggest contributor to the healthcare cost is that so few hospitals and treatment centers are actually run like businesses. It’s no longer about what is most efficient or cost effective, it’s about raw numbers. For example, the Cleveland Clinic is one of the most efficiently run hospitals in the world and also has extremely quick diagnosis to treatment turnarounds. It’s pricey, but you get the treatment that best suits you, not what makes the hospital the most.

so wait. when did you guys start sucking on Limbaugh’s *edited*? Oh that’s right, you never stopped. ALL HAIL RUSHHHHHHHH.And you really expect people to take you seriously?
HP has a different service philosophy than Dell.
Short of absolutely destroying it there’s not much you can do that they won’t be willing to fix as opposed to Dell where if it might take a little time and effort they just toss you a refurb replacement. Sometimes you get lucky and get a better model but sometimes not.

The clean air you breathe is because of progressive reformWe’re not talking about air, where talking about hot air, which is against the EPA regulations btw. It’s interesting you’d mention such a hypocritical program. They’re the reason it take 10-20 years to build a nuclear plant and roughly half that to build a coal or gas fired plant. How does that make sense? Answer me which one is cleaned for the surrounding area, hires more local employees, and burns less fuel?
NuRayZ said:
The multicultural class rooms that you get to be in is because of progressive reformPlease tell me you aren’t bringing up affirmative action… Even “minorities” are starting to turn against this because it makes the “majority” question the competancy of their “minority” classmates. Any program that fixes racial discrimination by bumping one student for another because one is one race and one is another is the definition of hypocracy.

If we didn’t have government intervention, kids could still be hired to crawl into giant machines because their hands are smaller than adults.lol?
NuRayZ said:
Clean water? oh yeah, government intervention.There was always clean water in areas that cared. Interesting how most of the water issues were in California and liberal states…
NuRayZ said:
But the fact is we have to many *edited* people to just expect things to just work out.So how many should we have?
I’m sure you’ll ignore the fact that illegal immigrants are the ones placing the hardest burden on our system…
NuRayZ said:
Yeah our government could use some work, but would you trade it for any other? It’s the best I know of.Were you saying this while Bush was in office or is it a recent discovery?
NuRayZ said:
And this may be a mute point, but all I hear from you serfs, I mean republicans, is how bad progressive reform is. But what do you guys want to do about it? People are screaming in town halls, yelling down representatives, with stupid *edited* phrases like “just say no”. Here is an idea, throw out some “right” legislation that will make this all better. hmmm, anyone hear that? Sounds like NOTHINGThe Republicans have made alternate plans to every controversial plan the liberals have pushed through so far. Their budget proposal would have drastically lowered the deficit. Nice try though, ignorant, but decent.
It’s interesting though that ALL liberals are ignoring the fact that the entire crowd is joining in. Maybe the one or two people starting it in the crowd are plants, big deal, but when the entire crowd is chanting those excuses are no longer valid. Try as we might, Republicans can’t plant an entire crowd, especially in heavily liberal districts.
You covered a broad spectrum of excuses so I’ll cover them as well.

What other option would one have if they lost their job (and obviously the benefits that come with it)? If you don’t make money it only makes sense you wouldn’t be able to afford ANY private health care plan. It’s not that you are forced onto it, its just once one loses their job, they aren’t exactly going to be able to go shopping for insurance. It only makes sense for them to get on a universal plan. Of course in our current beautiful system, one who loses their job, won’t have anything to fall back on; only adding to the ridiculously large amount on uninsured. Sure their is that unemployed check that we all know and love, but when you are unemployed the first thing you cut is any spending that isn’t needed to survive day to day, ei insurance. then the next day you get your leg blown off by a renegade tire off the road.You missed the entire point of what I said. If you had an insurance policy that you absolutely loved you would never be able to get it back, even if you got another job. Once forced off your current private plan there would be no alternative but the government plan. That’s retarded and only a fool would be in favor of it.
NuRayZ said:
Forcing private insurers to NEVER change pricing, to me, is a much more positive thing than you make it out to be. It’s called regulation, something that is needed, especially with insurance fat cats.Paying for insurance is one of the biggest investments you can make in your life. You pay $50,000 and get nearly twice that in care. I’m sure those “corporate fat cats” love losing money like that.
NuRayZ said:
We spend more money on insurance than any other country in the worldSo why is our system the envy of the world? You do realize just how many foreigners come here every year specifically for medical care, right?
NuRayZ said:
and still don’t have everyone insured.If you exclude illegal immigrants and those who already could afford insurance, the number is actually very small. FYI.
NuRayZ said:
I don’t think regulating rates is a bad thing either.Maybe the same kind of regulation they put on the banks and corporations they bailed out. You know, still paying execs huge bonuses with taxpayer money. Perhaps thats the regulation on successful businesses that are making money and being profitable not being able to pay their execs more than a specified amount. Or maybe your referring to telling successful companies they can’t have more private jets and then turning in an order to the air force for 2 more for themselves.
NuRayZ said:
People are freaking out, understandably, but a lot of it seems to be speculation and assumptions.Then what’s the truth? Please tell me because if I’m caught spreading “disinformation” someone could send my information in to Obama’s nazi hotline. I’m sure you’ve conveniently ignored that also.
NuRayZ said:
The majority are people who have been voting right all their lives, and are freaking out because their perfect little world is coming to an end.Odd how wanting to choose the aspects of their healthcare is now considered a radical right-wing idea. I think Obama said we’d be able to do that? Obama is a right-wing nut? Maybe a good car salesmen?
I-485 should have been 6 lanes both directions but the way things are going now that’ll never happen.
Here’s something to think about Youwin.
If you, right now, were diagnosed with some form of cancer and your odds of survival were low, would you want to see the best doctors available and try to survive or would you rather talk to a doctor about how it would be best for society if you went ahead and died?
I know what the majority of people would do.
Also, keep in mind the US has done far worse in the past. Hitler’s eugenics program, which forcefully sterilized 400,000 people was based almost verbatim on a California program. In 1927 our own Supreme Court wrote “It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime, or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind…. Three generations of imbeciles are enough.”
Prove to me they’ve changed since then. Even now the truth is coming out about why Roe v. Wade was passed, it wasn’t about abortion, it was about having less desirables in society. That’s straight from Justice Ginsberg.
If you look closely I think you’ll find we’ll do much better having as little government intervention in our lives as possible. When they get involved, things get wrong. Fast.
Your grandparents weren’t wrong. They will be required to see a doctor every few years who will discuss “dying with dignity”. They may not pull the trigger immediately but all 3 of Obama’s top advisors on this healthcare package believe that the best care and procedures should be reserved for those who will benefit the longest from it and that those 50 should get the least care. 50 because they stand to benefit much less from a heart operation than someone say 30.
There is a ton of documentation on this so please google it before writing off their “garbled bull*edited*”. They’re closer to the facts than you are.
Also, here’s a quote that got me banned from posting on Media Matters’ youtube videos. It’s directly from the House version of this bill.
HR3200 §102(a)(1) said:
(A) IN GENERAL- Except as provided in this paragraph, the individual health insurance issuer offering such coverage does not enroll any individual in such coverage if the first effective date of coverage is on or after the first day of Y1.If this clause makes it into the final draft, and there’s no reason to think it won’t, then private health insurance companies will be forbidden from taking on new customers. It will effectively force everyone into grandfathering their existing coverage and if they lose it for any reason, like losing their job, they will be forced onto the government plan.
Children dropped off their parent’s plans by age limits (I think it’s like 25 now) will be forced to take the government plan and will have no alternative. Period.
In the same section it also forces private insurers to NEVER change pricing, benefits, or terms, regardless of whether or not the package you have is comperable or price competitve with other insurers. If the price were to ever lower, they wouldn’t be allowed to. If they want to raise the price they have to raise it equally to ALL in that risk group and before they can that they have to get permission from “the Commissioner”.
I noticed this virus on my computer. Adam37 speaks the truth, computer runs much better after removing it.
Vista never booted this fast before.
The following holds true for anyone who’s worked in a cube-style office.

Didn’t you have to break it several times before they sent an upgrade?

Ask Nickname how his free upgrades went.
That doesn’t always mean a new and better machine.
The next generation of netbooks will have the newer Intel processor and should be MUCH better at gaming.
Or so I hear.

I had one on my wrist. Did nothing to cause it and it went away after a year or so. Was kinda creepy how big it got.
My understanding is they can be caused by normal growth. Doctor said mine was caused by joints rubbing or some such thing. It’s just a buildup of excess fluid that should have been flushed.

rofl WUTwhat cheats are there in that game? I know all the AoE2 cheats, but never bothers looking up the AoM cheats lulz
Idr how we did it but there was a way to enable cheats at the lobby for a multiplayer game for that. Everyone, including bots, would have them on by default.
This will be like Mech 2/3/4 in that it will be campaign driven. If that succeeds in drawing crowds it’s almost a guanantee that a mercenary based sequel will be released.
