Ask me

Well, first off let me be quite clear in stating that I will not tolerate negative slurs against the obviously suffering stupid people of the world. I would prefer it if any future questions about rampant human stupidity refer to these people as the chronically intellectually challenged instead. *cough* .

Now on to the kids. Kids are getting stupider you say? Really? They’ve all been behaving so well over the past few decades, glued to to their glowing screens, playing their console video games, or pretending to be swarthy 40-year old men on internet dating forums; I never noticed the change. But, let’s just assume that it’s true for now.

I blame any and all quality defects in new generation products on bad manufacturing practices. Basically, they just don’t make ‘em like they used to … probably because they don’t know how. Just think of the sorry state of erotica and sexual instruction today. Even in the forsaken ancient times the Indians had the Kama Sutra. Heck, even in the depths of their dark ages, the medieval Europeans had The Canterbury Tales and The Decameron for inspiration. What do we have today? Stuff with titles like Toe Tales and Asian Sorority Fever. Is there any doubt why we have a run-away production surplus and huge quality issues? Any day now I’m expecting God to issue a massive 3.6 million individuals callback to rectify the defect of exploding fingernails, or something similar, in the 2003 model Homo sapien.

So, Jonathan, I hope that answers your question. In the meanwhile boys and girls, the moral of the story is: make love, not war … or was that make love, not pÖrn … I can never get that right.

Hi Bill,
Thanks for the question. Dropping me into the deep end here aren’t you? For those who don’t know, ‘DxO’ is an image enhancement software, and ‘Genuine Fractals’ is a image enlargement software.

Too much pixelization at 100% in your photographs could mean that the original camera quality setting is too low, or DxO is being too agressive in its enhancements, or you’ve enlarged the photos too much beyond their original size using Genuine Fractals. Or, any combination of these three issues.

I can’t really tell you specifically what is wrong with your images until I see them and get a few more details. I’ve sent you an email, I’m sure we can figure it out.

Yes, now can you please stop talking to yourself in PUBLIC! Disgracefull!

Err … I thought it was quite clear. You ask questions, I answer. Sort of like this.
