Obama scares the hell out of me.... The way he just came out of nowhere and swept the country (and the world?) by storm.... they way he has millions of followers thinking he's gods gift to the world's problems... this dude reeks of "anti-christ"........

Needless to say, *I* am not voting for him.

you are joking, right?

I mean, there is just no way someone really believes this.

it'd be a good idea to give voters a test, just so we are sure there aren't individuals who vote for s*** reasons.

PS- why should this be a non-us question? He's running for prez in MY country.... why should my opinion not matter?

It's not that it doesn't matter. It's just that the subject of this thread is to know what people from other countries feel about it.

I picked Obama in the poll. Like mentioned before, it's because I think McCain is just Bush, part III.

Who owns them? Does he just rent seven houses?

I see in the overwhelming news about McCain not knowing how many homes he owns, you didn't hear that he actually owns none of them, and many news agencies can't even get the number right for who does.

Yeah, just further proofs how dumb US religious people are.... anti-christ.. lol

world power, ha.

Let me take a wild guess that Obama is winning this pole. Whatever, I hope Obama wins so that he can see how hard a job it really is when fuel prices continue to rise which will in turn continue to keep the world economy down. Although I'm sure when Obama suggests more drilling and the building of pipelines once he's president because that's when people want results and not just mindless talk we won't be hearing about how he's trying to destroy the environment. Of course if a Republician tried to do the exact same thing he would be lampooned by the media. I mean Democrats won congress 2 year ago and they have a lower approval rating then Bush but Republicans are evil and Democrats can do no wrong in the eyes of the media. Ron Paul would be the best candidate in my opinion.

Obama for me.

Oh and has it been mentioned before that it's "Schwarzenegger" and not "Swarchenegger"?^^

No one would ever possibly vote for Swarchenegger, because we all know he's a prick! :p

Obama: "Eight is Enough"

Personally, I think Obama would be the best for us (Canada) to work with. We all know Bush did SFA for Canada-US relations, and I can't see McCain doing much more.

They might apply Palin's experience to Canada. You know, Alaska is beside Canada, so he must have extensive experience with Canada. :rolleyes:

I never understood the fear of a candidate coming out of nowhere and winning an election. I mean, we make movies about that kind of story. Republicans especially LOVE that kind of man. The every man! A normal Joe, a common person. It worked for Robin Williams, eh?

I mean, the Republican party is probably the only group of people who can simultaneously call Obama an elitist and a nobody without their heads imploding. Not to mention the only party that can revere an actor as if he were the second coming of Christ, just to be terrified of an opponent people get excited about. If anything, it's a great way to clarify who the dittoheads are.

I would say obama since he seems only one with his head screwed on when it comes to foreign policy and actually resolving conflict in middle east and help redeveloping afghanistan and other things. Someone like mccaine who would like flexing us military's muscles specially with things like iran i certainly would prefer not to get dragged into more messes then what's been done in afghanistan etc. He also only respectful person i've seen running for election so that's where my choice would lay.

I see in the overwhelming news about McCain not knowing how many homes he owns, you didn't hear that he actually owns none of them, and many news agencies can't even get the number right for who does.

Oh, his wife owns the seven homes, not him. I guess you can't be expected to know how many houses your wife has. Well, hopefully, if he ever gets divorced again, he'll get half.

McCain. He seems more in touch with wealth creation.

I don't see what the big deal is with the question about his houses. It's not only irrelevant, but it really is difficult to answer as property will rarely be registered to the owner's name. Wealthy people have complex tax strategies, so it really was a useless question to ask.

Did you even read the link or find out if they really all under her name (which they aren't)? Have some objectivity for once in your life.

Im thinking McCain. Honestly ive had enough with all these 3rd world countries pushing us about, asking for aid, selling us their oil and crops, allowing us to vacation there and basically being poor and undeserving. Its obvious Jebus doesnt like them, he favors the rich. Its about time America elected a real war monger, Nixon style, so the developed world can finally put these poor people in their place. Obviously bomb Iran as his first act and probably nuke Russia as well. If that doesnt start world war 3 and bring about the rapture I dont know what will. Then me, McCain, Bush, Bill O'Reilly and the seven fattest kings of Europe can sit on our clouds and watch the heathens burn in hell.

Or on the other hand, Obama, he seems nice.

Oh and im pro choice, Bush should have been aborted.

    • TeraCopy 4.0 Build 28 by Razvan Serea TeraCopy is a compact program designed to copy and move files at the maximum possible speed, also providing you with a lot of features. Copy files faster. TeraCopy uses dynamically adjusted buffers to reduce seek times. Asynchronous copy speeds up file transfer between two physical hard drives. Pause and resume transfers. Pause copy process at any time to free up system resources and continue with a single click. Error recovery. In case of copy error, TeraCopy will try several times and in the worse case just skips the file, not terminating the entire transfer. Interactive file list. TeraCopy shows failed file transfers and lets you fix the problem and recopy only problem files. Shell integration. TeraCopy can completely replace Explorer copy and move functions, allowing you work with files as usual. TeraCopy is free for non-commercial use only. For commercial use you need to buy a license. The paid version of the program includes the following features: Copy/move to your favorite folders. Save reports as HTML and CSV files. Select files with the same extension/folder. Remove the selected files from the copy queue. Features added since version 3.17: Enhanced speed graph. New multi-threaded copy engine. Support for copying to multiple targets. Queue system for managing multiple copy operations. Support for receiving files via the LocalSend protocol. TeraCopy entry in the modern Windows Explorer context menu. Integrated toolbar in the title bar. Why receive LocalSend transfers with TeraCopy? Handle file conflicts: Skip, overwrite, or rename files when a file with the same name already exists. LocalSend always creates another copy, which can waste time and disk space, especially when resuming an interrupted transfer. Filter unwanted files: Apply ignore lists or remove files manually before accepting a transfer, so unnecessary files are not downloaded. Better performance on fast networks: In tests over a 10 Gbps connection, TeraCopy received files several times faster than the standard LocalSend app on Windows. TeraCopy 4.0 Build 28 changelog: Fixed a bug where Overwrite behaved as Overwrite All during same-drive move operations. AdvancedInstaller fixed the installer’s security vulnerability: EXE Bootstrapper resolved the %appdata% location incorrectly for the System account.

    • First exciting thing to come to Windows in a long time ! This is the kind of things they should focus on, instead of cramming as much AI as they can in everything.
    • New AMD graphics driver fixes install issues and FSR 4.1 crashes on RX 7000 GPUs by Taras Buria AMD is rolling out yet another graphics driver. Version 26.6.4 is now available for download, bringing two important fixes. One is for those still using Windows 10 and having trouble installing driver 26.6.2. In fact, this patch is coming from the recently released hotfix, so it is not new if you are already running version 26.6.3. The second fix is for RX 7000 owners. AMD recently brought FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen graphics cards, but there was a bug with certain games crashing when using FSR 4.1. I experienced this issue with Forza Horizon 6, so today's driver should take care of that. Here is the official changelog: Intermittent install issue seen when installing AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 on Windows® 10 systems for Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Intermittent application crash may be observed in some games with AMD FSR Upscaling 4.1 enabled on Radeon™ RX 7000 series graphics products. Known issues include the following: Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing Battlefield™ 6 on AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. AMD is actively working on a resolution with the developer to be released as soon as possible. Texture flickering or corruption may appear while playing Battlefield™ 6 with AMD Record and Stream on some AMD graphics products. AMD FSR Upscaling and AMD FSR Frame Generation may show as inactive in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition while playing Battlefield™ 6 when enabled on Radeon™ RX 9000 series graphics products. Failure to install may be observed while installing AI Bundle components in some regions with limited access to HuggingFace and GitHub. Model flickering or rendering failure may be observed in Maxon Cinema 4D and Blender on Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. Intermittent application crash may be observed on some models while running Blender on Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. You can download the AMD Radeon driver 26.6.4 from the official website here. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • Amazon may use OpenAI and Nova models after Anthropic reportedly raises costs by Karthik Mudaliar Amazon is reportedly considering to use OpenAI models and even its own Nova family of AI models after Anthropic raised the cost of using Claude inside Amazon services. According to a report from The Information, Amazon is weighing its options to reduce costs under a new arrangement with Anthropic. But back in April, Amazon said it would invest $5 billion more in Anthropic, with the possibility of adding up to another $20 billion if certain commercial milestones are met. That investment actually came on top of another $8 billion Amazon had already put into the Claude maker. Anthropic, meanwhile, committed to spend more than $100 billion over 10 years on AWS technologies, including Amazon’s Trainium chips. Amazon isn't just a customer of Anthropic but also one of the most important backers and cloud partners. This is why it makes it interesting that Amazon is considering other alternatives to handle its internal workloads. Although Amazon has been building its own options for a while now. Its Nova family of AI models was announced in late 2024 for Amazon Bedrock, with models aimed at text, image, and video tasks. Amazon pitched the model around cost and latency at that time. With that said, OpenAI has also become a more realistic option recently for AWS customers as well as for Amazon itself. Earlier this year, OpenAI brought its latest models and Codex coding agent to Amazon Bedrock, after changes to its previously more restrictive Microsoft cloud arrangement. This allowed AWS to serve even those customers who wanted other alternatives from Claude, without having to move workloads out of Amazon's cloud. Evaluating alternatives could also be due to commercial pressure and not necessarily a sign of a damaged partnership between Amazon and Anthropic. Whether or not Amazon is actually considering switching entirely to OpenAI's models or its own Nova models remains unknown at this moment.
