Kill the Screenshot Topic

As far as axing the screenshot topic goes, I'm going to have to vote Nay on that one. Reasons as to why have already been stated by others in this topic and I don't feel I need to repeat them with an essay of my own. ( ̄▽ ̄)ノ

No DX11.1 for Windows 7

author=Natook
But a large section of developers will not be content with Windows 8 being a closed platform. Notch and Valve have already said they won't release anything for Windows 8.

I'm sure knowledgable users are also not content with Windows 8 being a closed platform, not just the developers. I mean really, I can't install any Metro "app" (god I hate that word) software except those expressly permitted by Microsoft on the Windows Store? What is this, Apple Lockdown 2.0? (屮゜Д゜)屮

Yeah I know we still have the desktop (for now), but I'm talking about the principle of the matter.

Presidential elections

author=harmonic
KA: Obama claims good things, but shrugs bad things. Things happen under his watch. Adults take responsibility, children avoid it.

I'm just calling them as I see them. The whole reason US bonds got downgraded was due to the US Congress getting grid-locked and not raising the debt limit in time despite everyone else shouting "just fucking raise it already you dimwits".

Now as for bullshit that President Obama has actually been responsible for, like that going-back-on-my-word crap he pulled with the NDAA bill, I'll hold him accountable for them until the day he leaves office.

Presidential elections

As far as the economy, neither candidate was clear. However, Obama already had a chance, and with ... a downgrade of our bond rating from AAA to AA ... I'd say someone else deserved a shot, because it's not hard to beat that bad of a fuck up.
I realize the post I'm replying to is quite a ways back now, but I just want to address it to make it clear that the blame for the downgrade of US bonds lies completely and entirely on the United States Congress for becoming grid-locked and disagreeing to the point of complete paralysis and irrelevance, not President Obama or the White House.

We're also headed shortly for a huge across-the-board budget cut because of that paralyzing grid-lock of irrelevance that continues to this day (but is strangely absent with regards to bills like SOPA which easily gain bipartisan and unanimous support!).

No DX11.1 for Windows 7

Seeing as many of us here are PC gamers, this is probably relevant to our interests.

Presidential elections

In an ideal world there wouldn't be politicians.
