Re: Computer Assisted Fornication

Doesn't hurt! Especially for those that just dug themselves out of $20k to $100k of dept and just turned a positive Net Worth. Lots of those on the forum.

Probably. It's still only bringing on climate Armageddon by a few msec.

I don't see the contradiction. What's needed to slow down anthropogenic glo bal warming is a move from coal-fired power stations and petrol- (and diese l-) fueled cars. Do that and it's worth worrying about international jet tr avel. Until then quixotic gestures are merely silly.

Not my experience. Getting a big simulation off a rotating hard disk takes minutes, not msec. Interpretation isn't difficult. Getting a better solutio n can take a while, particularly when there isn't a sniff of a customer.

I'm not, actually. My variant of the Baxandal oscillator gave me a lot less distortion than the original, but I'm going for something somewhat more cl assical, which promises even less distortion.

Cursitor Doom is really remarkably stupid. He kill-files me so he doesn't get read what I post, then complains that I don't answer the questions he sees posted.

I did - in fact - post a response to that particular question - as I often do.

Cursitor Doom, being particularly dumb about electronics, probably wouldn't have have been able to make any sense of the answer anyway.

The question isn't exactly unique to Jan Panteltje - John Larkin asks it regularly when he has been caught with his pants down and wants to change the subject.

Somebody with a little more electronic awareness than Cursitor Doom - the average floor-cleaner comes to mind - would be aware that I do post occasional electronic content, though - as Jan Panteltje complains - very little of it is driven by recent work.

Yea, when I was beamed down to this planet I found a lot of facinating things to play with. I have never looked at it any other way.

So you believe in multi-universes, my believe is limited to multi-meters. If you do not believe in multi-universes then you must be in the same one, well done or rare, or whatever.

Wel, define 'big'. If you were running a real OS, say Linux, and you should, then it would all be cached anyways. In any case if you knew your stuff you could have set up a RAM disk.

I was in hospital last week and they just used a gravity-fed drip device.

There would be an illicit trade in fake passwords.

Yoda/Joda seems to use some kind of bastardised German grammar. In "Fake you are" the verb comes at the end which would only be correct if there were two or more verbs in that sentence. The correct equivalent in English would be the same as in English itself: "You are fake."(sic)

You could have worked it out for yourself.

Who cares how you look at it?

I'm sure multi-universes are possible, but actually believing in them, without any evidence that they actually exist, is more trouble than it is worth.

The half-baked part of your universe is only your imperfect grasp of what it might be.

About 815Mb.

Under Linux. The reality is I can't be bothered firing up my Linux partition often enough to make it useful. The SSD is split between the Linux and the Windows partitions.

Not at all. There are about a billion people with enough money to burn enough fossil carbon to make a difference, and the global economy is moving to add lots more to that number.

It may look that way to you, but you tend to see what you want to see, rather than seeing what's actually going on.

As if Jan Panteltje could tell s*it from shinola.

Does that mean that there MIGHT be a universe in which Sloman is sane, and he worked for a a living instead of sponging of his wife, and taking Welfare?

I have had a '97 Dodge Dakota. I paid $2700 for it, and I've had it for ten years. So far, I have spent about $600 in repairs, so that is $330 a year for the vehicle. It has a full 8' bed, and I now drive less than 3000 miles a year. What sense would it make to spend thousands on another vehicle, as long as it runs OK?

No, there is a universe where sponging off others is honorable (if not required). It's called the "Democratic Universe". Nancy Pelosi, Chucky Shumer, and Billy Slowman live there.

Sure. It's the real one. I worked for a living for most of my life, and I'v e got pension income from those jobs. My wife is still working (and getting more money than I do) but I don't actually get any money from her (though some of her choices actually cost me money).

I was never on welfare. For almost five years, in the Netherlands (2003 to

Mike Terrell lives in his own parallel universe where he is free to concoct his own alternative facts. This doesn't make him sane.

Not exactly. Krw and Mike Terrell live in their own parallel universes where they are free to concoct their own alternative facts. This doesn't make them sane, but does seem to keep them happy.
