the whole "here's the entire OS 'we' own it" thing that caused the uproar.
Uproar? Uproar? The only uproar I have noticed (CAN NOT AVOID) are the three or four Hyperion-haters in this thread. Over and over and over again.
and again.
At this point I can no longer see whatever point they are trying to make except they hate Hyperion and Thomas (who said himself he didn't want to be a Hyperion employee or contractor or anything, that is why the contributions he made were free. )
Sigh - and now I have done what I told myself I wouldn't. I know it is a complete waste of time to try to teach others courtesy or how to have civil conversation.
Have at it.
Actually - until this case - I was pro Hyperion. It's just when you see patterns...read the leaked transcripts from meetings... Eventually a picture starts to form and things become clear. Everyone is free to choose a side. Me - I want progress...preferably multi-core and perhaps ported natively to the RPi platform. I had hope for the Vampire but the clowns running that poop-show couldn't understand why I say you'd need a dedicated 3D chip to do 3d and that doing it all in the CPU was the same hubris those fools who made the CELL processor had. That an all-cpu-based Amiga is not really an Amiga - it's a DRACO.
NOW over a year later, the master-chief is finally coming to the conclusion that his wunder-cpu can't actually do it all AT THE SAME TIME. Finally the light bulb went on over his head that he'd need a dedicated chip to handle the gazillions of vector math operations required to do 3D any justice.
...but apparently he deemed that I didn't know what I was talking about and how dare I allude to the hubris behind his cpu and got banned...
...I also asked for an enhance AKIKO as a way to offload this work. The master-chief told me it was a useless chip.
18 months later what do we have?
http://apollo-core.com/knowledge.php?b=5¬e=28256&z=eG_Ga7The master-chief singing AKIKO's praises...he's even using it to speed up c2p conversion of icons for displaying on SAGA. Now ain't that something from a stupid idea about a useless chip...?
What the f*ck do I know? I'm a troll. Trolls should be banned.
Yep - that's the state of the Amiga 'community'. People don't know how to take constructive criticism. Every casual comment you type online gets blown up to 50 on a scale of 10. That's why face-to-face meetings are important. So words don't get skewed and intentions misrepresented. This is why people still have gatherings and events. Have a drink together.
This is why I think THOR is taking KOLLA the wrong way. I say use his skills as quality control not as an insult. Work with him instead of get mad at him.
It's a radical concept I guess...
@thorAll I can say THOR is - don't be like Gunnar. Take criticism as the constructive type. Are you coding to please yourself and have everyone sing your praises or are you coding for the sake of us users? Users are your customers. Their voice matters.
