1. SLI Broken in DX11 mode - in Issues, Workarounds & Localization [original thread]
I have a laptop using 2 Nvidia 750m cards in SLI. They were working fine prior to Rubicon. After the update, EVE would only run with 1 video card. I checked the settings and it was running in DX11. I forced EVE to run with DX9 and now both video...

2. Children of Naught: The Infomorph - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Quote: It's a shift in context, one some recognize as fundamental and others claim is superficial. The question is not whether the alterations exist; many of them clearly do. The question, which you admittedly touch on lightly, is whether th...

3. Children of Naught: The Infomorph - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Quote: So what, precisely, is an infomorph? Your struggle with this question, Aria, has always seemed to me too insistent that we are something other than human. But from where I stand, the answer is fairly simple, if perhaps unsatis...

4. Children of Naught: Of Necessity - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Quote: We have a chance to buy our lives fairly, and not by frail deception or fleeting glamor. Even if we have already earned the hate of many, even drenched in the blood of millions, which will no doubt continue to flow, the humans will be...

5. Gallente Society and the Failure of Censorship - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Quote: Action: Enslaving the Minmatar Which is, of course, why you saw the Minmatar revolution coming, conquered the Jovians, didn't have any of your emperors try to declare themselves as Gods, never had to discipline any of the Heirs, and ...

6. Lai Dai profit warning does not extend to LDIS - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Worrying about economic slowdown is equivalent to panicking when the sun goes down and the sky goes dark. All these things are cyclical. Let's not pretend that this is the first case of possible recession in the history of the human race. _____...

7. Children of Naught: On Humankind - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Quote: The part of my perspective on our state that you seem to misunderstand is that my desire for departure is not based on concern for humankind; humanity can and will protect itself. It, as an entity, is in little real danger from us. T...

8. Children of Naught: On Humankind - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Quote: If we were to come to the conclusion that we were in fact not distinct from the rest of humanity, there is still good reason to heed Ms. Jenneth's warning. Humanity does, in fact, change rapidly, but is also quite excellent at finding...

9. Children of Naught: On Humankind - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Even if we were to concede that we have become an existence distinguishable from human beings, does that compel us to leave them behind? We are neither freak accidents nor aberrations of nature. We are products. We are the products of a deliberate...

10. Children of Naught: On Humankind - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Quote: In prior writings, I've written on the capsuleer, on our nature and place in the cosmos, as I understand it. It should be obvious from reading this series of essays that I do not believe us to be in our right place, and that I believe...

11. Religious arguments - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Edited by: Father Abel on 28/02/2008 01:15:35 Whenever people claim logical reasoning, they are simply expressing B. All reasoning relies on certain factual assumptions that they consider self-evident. It's not as if logic were some otherwo...

13. Relevance of Realpolitik to a Paramilitary - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Quote: This sounds a bit more like a nation's military than an independent nationalist paramilitary. Being in a nationalist paramilitary, one is not always receiving direct orders from the government, which is the best way to align one's own...

14. Relevance of Realpolitik to a Paramilitary - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Quote: It seems, Father Abel, that your idea of a proper paramilitary is ... military. The national leaders directing a military can demand unswerving compliance of their soldiers. A paramilitary, on the other hand is, by its nature, connect...

15. Relevance of Realpolitik to a Paramilitary - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Quote: Hiding, no. Trying to make yourselves out to be the injured party, full of righteous anger, because your previous action fell under the auspices of the State, yes. All right. Quote: By the way, while a Caldari government m...

16. Relevance of Realpolitik to a Paramilitary - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Quote: I still think this is incorrect in the case of nationalist paramilitaries. A Gallente paramilitary may do its best to act in the best interests of the Gallente Federation, and because of that aligns its political agenda to best serve...

17. Relevance of Realpolitik to a Paramilitary - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Aria Jenneth: Quote: It's not much of a digression, actually, Father Abel. The claim of not being responsible for one's actions is a natural extension of claiming not to judge, but only to obey. The claim that the State has ordered somethin...

18. Relevance of Realpolitik to a Paramilitary - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Nachshon: Quote: Paramilitaries are political actors. People associate CAIN with the Caldari State, and thus CAIN should be careful about taking actions that might reflect badly on the state. The same goes for paramilitaries of other natio...

19. Relevance of Realpolitik to a Paramilitary - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Aria Jenneth Quote: A paramilitary is distinct, thoroughly, from a military. CAIN is not a formal part of the State, it is not, to my recollection, owned by any State corporation, and it faces no legal sanctions for disobedience short of co...

20. Relevance of Realpolitik to a Paramilitary - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Trent Valtine: Quote: Interesting. However, a paramilitary is a political actor. Even a celebrity can be a political actor. Yes, CAIN is certainly not a state, and thus is not the centerpiece of realist politics, but it is a paramilitary th...
