Trans fats to be phased out in USA, Amiga edited Film about Trans Fats Update

[Iggy]

As my major was in Pre-Veterinary Animal Science (don't ask, its silly complicated) and I've had a lot of courses covering food science, I will say that the moderator's point about the dangers of long chain polymerized fats is not an exaggeration.

But then again, and before I get moderated out of here for awhile, what the HECK is this stuff doing here?

The electric car posts were off base enough, but this has no real place in the forum.

[Iggy]

It's here because we used Amiga's to help make a unreleased film about the dangers of Trans Fats and get bugged all the time about when it's coming out. We may release some of the footage from the film at some point in the future.

Now that would make it interesting.
I thought video editing on the Amiga was a relatively dead issue, until I stumbled upon a large number of eBay buyers that were still rabidly supporting that stuff.

I thought the bargain basement prices on video toaster boards was an indication of their fading popularity.

I am joining LoadWB. I guess this is the thread to announce that you are leaving.
 
Before I leave I want to say I had nothing to do with any computers being peed on. It is pure fiction. Who wants to be blamed for peeing on computers? Also, keep in mind the seller was a girl, I am guy, living a city away from where this girl was. I wish she would join and explain herself.

Your entire obsession with this whole pee'd on hardware issue is disturbing.
I used to have a friend that had the neurotic habit of mentioning that it smelled like cat pee whenever we were around a certain type of evergreen shrub (which, curiously enough, does smell like cat pee).
But you are doing nothing good by over reacting to the comments.

Are you sure you don't pee on hardware and then sell it to people?

What's next? Flying bananas plot to conquer the universe?

:banana:

Shh, don't let on you know about that.

Theres definately a bit of a "reaching its use by date" odour to amiga.org these days.
Lots of long time users are becoming discontent, many have already left, more and more demonstrations of what appears to be bizarre anti-windows form of OCD by the sites maintainer, and other annoyances that have historically led to sites deaths.
Personally Im also pretty close to calling it a day in regards to this site as well.
Its barely a shadow of its former self.

Frankly, most of the time I just say screw it and endure this painful crap.
After all, most of our ex-patriots can still be reached via the internet.

Besides, I honestly think some of you are taking things too seriously (oh, oh goto go - I think I saw the cat peeing on some of my surplus hardware).

edit - Yo SysAdmin, the only thing that killed Commodore was criminally bad management.

[Iggy]

I'm not sure I get your point Amiga nut, either the management was or they weren't at fault.
And personally, I always tend to think of Amiga and the rest of Commodore's line separately (although, God knows, management didn't make to many great decisions developing the Amiga line either).

Frankly, I think they just got too used to the high profits generated by $200 C64s that had a $2 processor in them and they couldn't get it past their thick heads that that situation couldn't last forever.

And I wish I could have been a fly on the wall during the C128's design sessions. I want to know which genius went "I've got it, we'll make it capable of running CP/M 'cause God knows those C64 users love programs without graphics and sound".

[Iggy]

But..he said "Amiga".
Isn't that news worthy?
