That's debatable, but it does make one look like an idiot

I'm heading to the diner to order some FREEDOM FRIES!

[Heiroglyph]

Roughly one on topic post per page in a thread trying to unify us for a cause. :whack:

I guess no good deed goes unpunished, right Xanxi?

Well, at least it's staying on the front page.

That "Freedom Fries" nonsense after Iraq invasion was one of the most embarassing things for me as an american personally. The fact that america is quickly descending into the Land of the NOT SO FREE its quite a joke. And the joke is on us - the citizens.  America has more citizens in incarcaration than any country in the world. America has more military bases and more troops in more countries than any other in the world. We also have the most arms and nuclear weapons..

but then again when everyone says "freedom" and points to the illumantis symbol of the Statue of "liberty" (Another cruel irony) you know we are in for some 1984/Soylent Green/Planet of the Apes/ THX 1138 type crap.

(since we are so OT it doesnt matter figured i'd add this)

Freedom Fries and Soylent Green...

MMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!

Well its probably not in Jens commercial interest to share this technology.

Now where are my chilli bean fries???  (Had them in Korea super yum miss them!)

I'm dreaming about a new mentality from ALL the important Amiga actors :
 => thinking FIRST about the Amiga cause, and AFTER about our respective interest...


I'm a dreamer, yes, I know... Anyway, this new mentality called unity is the ONLY way to save Amiga computers...

[darkage]

Yes its nice to dream, but at the end of the day it comes down to money..  Sure it would be very generous and honourable to release much needed information into the community freely, but as you see alot of ppl llike to make money from the community as well.   So if the information is held back thats one way to protect Jens business against any future competitors.

[yssing]

In reality, it would be better to team up with the natami team and use their fpga 68k with memory controller to get "lightning" fast accelerator for the old amigas.

I guess it would make a lot more sence, than continuing on the "old" 68k path.

Actually, my dear friends, your french or freedom fries have nothing to do with France.

French fries, "les frites", come from Belgium and even if some of the Belgians do speak french, this country is not a part of France since 1815.



As for the ones who are not interested in the release of the Apollo datas, why keep posting in there? There is so much to do on a Sunday afternoon, isn't it?

French are proud and independant but not arrogant, and certainly no more xenophobic than any other people around the world. Some would say that USA are arrogant, racist and imperialist. However i don't, because i am educated enough to know american history and key figures from George Washington and Benjamin Franklin to Henry Kissinger to understand the heart of Americans and even sometimes feel like one of them (actually i do admire a lot Abraham Lincoln but really despise Kissinger).
And this goes for any other country including Jens Schoenfeld's Germany

I agree that it is a shame that France sells weapons to any other country.

Sorry, you're probably right that the French are no more arrogant then any other country.
And Kissinger is easy to despise.
Also, as I've mentioned, we owe the French a debt for their involvement in our own revolution.

As to Jen's homeland, many of the people I interact with on the internet are German.
They're generally pretty bright people.

Still, I'm not sure what any of this has to do with the Apollo.

This thread has slid on some anti french commentaries because some members have found inacceptable to sign a petition on a website where a part of the text is written in french, even if those french words are translated in english on the first post.

Perfectly silly. Added my signature.
With the tools we have on the web, we can translate anything.
And French (luckily enough) is a fairly straight forward translation.
German, now that can get a little weird.

But is this petition likely to have any effect on Jens?

PS

French fries, "les frites"

I'd always heard them refereed to as "pom frites".

[runequester]

I dig the French. They aren't afraid to say "**** em" (in French obviously) and replace their government every now and again, when they've screwed up, or have a revolution just to remind everyone that yeah, you're in charge, but we're still the people and there's a lot of us.

[Cosmos Amiga]

Why UK english and USA ppl hate so deeply french & France ?

I'm very curious to know the real reason(s)...
