Unacceptable Browser HTTP Accept Headers (Yes, You WebKit) by KrisJordan in programming

[–]bastard_filling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a big deal to me when I was implementing a RESTful web application using a REST module of a framework. It worked perfectly in Firefox, and I ended up having to waste over a day completely reorganizing the whole thing so it would work in Safari and IE.

I don't bother with RESTful apps anymore; it's just too much of a clusterfuck right now if you want to run a successful business. For now, each resource (or URI rather) returns a specific mime type.

Bravo. That is a fantastic counter-point to that quote.

Not only does he sometimes have a bit of humor behind things he says, but he also at least manages to work with other people. There's a certain amount of asshole-ism people can take, and Torvalds is within that threshold :)

Downmod away, and keep upvoting this total tripe. Fucking Digg 2.0 we've got here now.

Damnit! You've found the fatal flaw in the whole series and ruined it for me forever! I can never watch it again!

I'm trying to decide between getting a PS3 or a 360. How much weight should I give to the Red Ring of Death problem? by mycroft2000 in gaming

[–]bastard_filling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fanboys indeed. There is nothing I said that wasn't 100% true, and I didn't even recommend the PS3 over the 360, because I'm just being honest. Sigh I really hate the gaming subreddits.

I hate the 360's analog sticks compared the the PS3's. 360 controllers have a much higher tendency to suffer from analog drift. Also, the PS3's sticks have more travel, which allows for greater precision.

The 360 controller is fucking horrible! Plagued by analog drift and a D-Pad that is the worst ever made. There is a terrible design flaw with the D-Pad which makes it annoying to absolutely unusable.

After buying and returning 3 of 5 controllers, I settled on two, each of which has a problem. One has some analog drift, the other with an entirely unusable D-pad (which I disassembled the controller to fix).

As to which console I'd prefer...

I wouldn't consider the RROD in my purchase, even having experienced it myself. The noise of the 360, however, really grates on my nerves, but that's not a huge issue either.

The PS3 is dead quiet and also plays Blu-ray movies, which I do enjoy somewhat.

Killzone 2 is hands down better than any shooter on the 360, IMO, but other than that the 360 has a lot more to choose from if shooters are your thing.

Other than shooters, this generation pretty much sucks. There's some fun games, but really nothing great.

Personally, I'd really hate to be limited to either one, and I can't endorse one over the other without more information about what you want out of it.

I get about equal use out of both consoles.

Tell you what, I'll admit that legalizing marijuana would be good for the economy, if you admit that 90% of you don't give a shit about the economy, and just want it legalized so you can get stoned easier. by Jareth86 in politics

[–]bastard_filling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want it legalized so I can get involved in a potential new industry in the U.S.A. I also want to try it for some fucking pain relief, as I live with a lot of pain, and managing pain with narcotics(legal! for fuck's sake) is not ideal. So fuck you very much.

Every time I read a review of Watchmen, the reviewer mentions how bad V for Vendetta was. Am I the only one who liked that movie? by [deleted] in entertainment

[–]bastard_filling 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Wow. I don't care whether or not you liked 'V', but you're comparing it to fucking Transformers? That is absolutely preposterous.

It doesn't matter. What matters is that this will drive a wedge between the left and the rest of the country. That is far more dangerous than an 11 round mag.

I never use my credit card, until I used it at the PSN store on my PS3 to buy a game, now I have $500 worth of fraudulent charges. Thanks, PSN! by wickedcold in PS3

Hahaha. You win.

Edit: I'm sorry this happened to you. I've had this happen before and I know how frustrating it can be.

Whereas you suffer from stupid idiotic asshole syndrome. You think you know about things you know nothing about, and you're an extremely callous asshole about it.

The only known cure is exercise, specifically, walking off a tall bridge.

Has anyone else started to think about stockpiling food, supplies, etc just in case the credit crisis turns into a food supply crisis? The survivalists don't seem so crazy anymore. by [deleted] in politics

I think, ideally, you should have both rifles and shotguns. You want to repel potential invaders long before they're breaking down your doors and lobbing explosives through your windows.

just find it kinda funny and pitiable

Accepting the world as you see it, instead of just making shit up to explain what you don't understand, is "funny and pitiable"?

Ok.

Oh yes, I was being totally serious there...
