Are you suggesting that a little bit of healthy voter intimidation and rigging isn't Democratic? Considering the games the ancient Greeks played on their days off, I imagine that's exactly what they had in mind. You can't possibly believe that people should be able to decide these things for themselves - that would be absurd. I know a disturbing number of "adults" that I wouldn't let make any decisions involving me, let alone a whole country.

Common people - yuck. <Shudder>

Democracy is listening to every citizen's probably disturbing voice. Electing people to replace you as a member of the adult people (demos) is ridiculing me, oligarchy is not actually a synonym for democracy.

It is now - what you were taught in school is of little value in real life. If "the people" don't know what's good for them, a little helping hand from uncle Vladimir will sort out all their petty problems - or at least create whole new ones so they forget the old ones. Besides, it's not oligarchy (Putin's just a figurehead), it's pseudocorporatism (a more "polite" and socially acceptable form of Stalinism for the modern age, where things actually get "done" - so long as no one asks "how" they get done). When I start up my own pseudorepublic I'll be using the same type of system, just with more flowery language and less leather jackets and bear wrestling.

Nuclear weapons to force people to obey the grand dictator?

[quote="nikos"]I tried to explain the licenses in the blog post but here we are again:

* you don't need the ultimate version unless you want portability

$20 to upgrade to ultimate version for me (not bad)

So what else do i get with the ultimate version?

Priority support. Obviously, paying is not enough anymore.

Don't forget about the max powah experience level user rank you gain when going ultimate.

x²'s history has shown that there is something major (ultimate) that the maximum (professional). I wonder what the next step will look like.

But is it worth the $20 bucks??

Tuxman · Post by **Tuxman** » 2012 Mar 05, 23:08

Depends if you need support.
Or want to use x² from a flash drive.

So is the grayed-out RE field in mass rename dialog just a tease?
