i can't seriously debate in a forum that uses comic sans

did you know there are multiple fake studies that have been cited at me that supposedly state that comic sans is easier to read for people like me with dyslexia

ikr?

that's a fair point, but on the other hand google's name sounds like the name of a really really big number, and usually big numbers win out over smaller ones IME

Also, Oracle employs Mary Ann Davidson, who is a toxic person and shouldn't be in charge of the security of a weather station let alone CSO of anything.

I think we should debate something much more pertinent: what is the purpose of byob when fyad exists.

which would you rather do, byob or fyad?

what would the oracle of delphi do? I think she would probably drink some wine and tell everybody to chill out at byob.

Delphi is by Borland, though, and based on Pascal and not Java?

Matoi asked nice so I came by.

welcome, which side of the issue do you stand on?

To share our wildly different culture my avatar is a cool dude eating an ice cream bar.

I don't have a sig anymore because I had a misspelled one for years.

Ice cream bars are generally a good thing, and sigs are by no means mandatory.

I think Oracle should Google IBM, but I'm more agnostic about the whole court thing because java is something I'm forced to endure because programmers like it so much.

To make things.

to be fair many programmers also hate java with a passion. usually the same programmes that like it v much.

When I'm feeling mischevious I call Google "Kuukkeli", which is Finnish for Siberian jay.

I thought this was pertinent, because I like mister magpie's avatar very much and felt that while duckie's burn was totally rad, it was also kind of uncalled for, and also I like duckies and magpies in real life and they're both birds like the Siberian jay.

Also, Google is pretty okay for a massive global corporation and Oracle is a p horrible company that's stuck in a rut and instead of developing something new or improving on an old product they try to make money with morally ambiguous court cases.

I would pay good money for a set of those crayons in good condition.

Also, Rodatose, I like your posting, can we be forums friends? :3:
