I had the books one for yeeeears.  Also I never actually got ida pro to work.  I was trying to disassemble the street fighter 2 arcade roms with ida pro to make a romhack but I never got the program to work right.  I managed to hack the crud out of the game using just pure hex editing instead.  I have a lot of icons of unused software I need to clean up when I feel like it.

Oh, I was talking about my desktop, that there is "nothing going on here" but I remarked that I noticed Drakon had installed "IDA Pro Free", which is literally the greatest x86 disassembly software I have ever encountered and the reason I succeeded in all of my PC patches for Falcom Ys games, etc. That software was a game-changer (once you learn how to use it, that is, but even then to fully master it would take a lifetime), just like Neill Corlett essentially told me it would be when he recommended it while I was hacking Ys I Complete way back in '01... Heh, still remember stuff from my glory days of wasted youth! ; )

Why am I still not seeing either Nazi symbols or white power iconography in Xray's photo? I see an Iron Cross, which is an icon from 13th century Prussia, and some odd flag with a symbol I don't recognize but certainly has nothing to do with Nazis or white power. So... am I missing something here? White power is usually represented by a raised fist or a circled equilateral cross, and Nazis are usually represented by a rotated swastika... neither of which are in that picture. I just don't like the jet... more boobs can fit in its space. :lol:

OH, ok... now I see it... you really have to look for it though, which means that someone was really scrutinizing... you can barely see it unless you're actually looking intently for something to throw at someone.

However, that flag isn't a Nazi symbol. That lightning bolt icon has been used more times than the Iron Cross has.

As for the SA sign... someone needs to actually read the auction description:

"This is NOT an original Nazi/Third Reich era artifact, nor is it made to promote/endorse any ideology. Will not ship to Europe, or anywhere else that bans Nazi/Hitler related items."

The evidence points not to a Nazi sympathizer but to a right-wing conservative with the typical interest in war history. At worst, you could say that he's a racist... or maybe he just hates Obama like all other right-wingers.

I can't speak for others, but i will try to clarify what i think is the issue. The jet, a me-262 is popular amongst vintage aircraft enthusiasts. by itself it means nothing, including the symbol on the wings. Reproduction me-262's are made till this day for all to fly, and are usually made with historically accurate insignia. the iron cross is still used today by the german military and by itself is not a symbolism of nazi germany.

The flag is the problem. It was pointed out to me that it is the mark of a neonazi group. I did some research, and while you wont' find that exact flag, you will find many very similair, using a combination of the same symbols. The lightning bolt in the center is most likely in reference to the nazi ss. The black swirl behind it is a variation of a reverse swastika. The overall color scheme and shape are common themes in such flags. Neonazi's will also generally grab onto other symbols otherwise benign as part of the propaganda. If you add that to the fact that xray has been linked with racist forums in another thread, and it paints the picture. He has stated himself that he will make anything you want, including the nazi ss signs he has already made, just to make a dollar.

He may or may not be racist, but by his own admission he has no problem making racist material for money. That in itself appears to have alot to do with what is turning people away. My strongest beef with xray is his treatment of bernie, and the comments he made to the professor about his kids. Regardless of how xray feels about the professor or anyone else for that matter, there are things you just don't say.

OldRover

I'm not thrilled about how he talked to Bernie either. Bernie's one of the friendliest, most respected people around these parts. He's also one of the only people on this forum you'd never wanna meet in a dark alley.

Out of limitless possibilities for historical icons and military vehicles, why does everything on his desktop fall into line with typical neo-nazi ideology? As for the ebay sale, you might have a point if that SA sign was buried in hundreds of other listings and unrelated designs, but he's not selling any other historical symbols, just that SA sign. And of course he's going to have some BS disclaimer so his listing isn't removed.

Like I said before, only an idiot would reproduce and distribute the symbols of mass murders. Even if Xray doesn't buy into the ideology (highly doubtful), he has to realize that there are legions of white power groups that do and they feed on these products. He also has to realize that thinking people hate this shit. Offensive material shouldn't be censored, but that doesn't mean we should tolerate it or imagine that Xray is a reasonable person. Holocaust deniers continue to spread their lies every day as Americans are brainwashed that their are "two sides" to every issue.

Yes, war buffs are going to have an interest in war history and they're going to collect stuff, but they're going to keep their Nazi paraphernalia under wraps, not wave it around to the exclusion of everything else. They're going to pick a different cool-looking jet to put on their desktop. I happen to have a few old coins with swastikas from one of my Grandpa's because he flew a B-17 over Germany, but I keep them in a box with all of my other weird coins, I don't put them on my frickin' desktop, sell facsimiles on ebay, or bring them up in casual conversion.

Not everything there falls in line with neonazi ideology, and it may just be that that's the only one he has for sale right now. Could simply be an inconvenient coincidence.

I'm not defending the guy, I'm just not willing to jump on the drama bandwagon. Circumstantial evidence doesn't tend to hold up in the court of law, only in the "court of popular opinion". This chain reaction to one fruitcake is typical forum war crap that belongs at places like neo-geo.com, not here.

And of course there are two sides to every issue. That's not brainwashing, it's fucking reality. Remember, history is written by the victor... what does the other side have to say? And holocaust deniers are just fucking stupid, but then again, so are Creationists, Scientologists, the majority of Republicans, most libertarians, and all bleeding heart liberals and Tea Party supporters.

Sure, maybe the guy with the SA flag and the nazi jet and the iron cross and the SS lightening bolt and the lone SA sign listed on ebay and the unusually vehement hatred of feminine black celebrities and the homophobic slurs misrepresented himself. It's not like we're going to sentence the guy. I'm willing to entertain the 0.00001% chance that I'm wrong, but so far he's done nothing to dispel any judgements. All he's said is something like "I make other signs too," and "actually, I've haven't really studied the Nazi platform. I know they murdered 6,000,000 people for economic gain and corporate profit, but...I don't know, maybe they had some good ideas. I need to do more research."

I think we're saying the same thing here. The media puts extremist, stupid, minority groups like the ones you cite on equal footing with legitimate reasoning because of their dogmatic obedience to always present "two sides":
* "Here's an author who wrote a new book about the holocaust, now let's give equal time to this denier we found in a shack in Michigan."
* "Some called them robber barons; others called them industrial statesmen - you decide!"
* "98% of scientists believe in climate change, now let's hear from the 2% who don't."
etc.

Not that these viewpoints shouldn't be allowed to speak, but journalists should have no obligation to present lies as credible arguments.

Rover, he states that in his auction details to bypass the fact that selling Nazi relates items on ebay is prohibited no matter what country you are selling them in. He is trying to use a loophole to keep the auction from being kicked. The Red SS flag/banner on his desktop is a Neo Nazi related item (Neo Nazis idolize the SS and SA both). All those little Neo Nazi splinter groups make their own banners and crap, so you wont find that flag in any historical compilation. We have a couple of splinter groups here in Arkansas in a couple of small hick cities that use this kind of crap to display their "white power pride", slapping it on the back of their truck windows and shit.

To be honest this is not the kind of stuff you can even begin to rationalize or make excuses for, even by playing devils advocate. There is far better shit to idolize then the things he chose, for obvious reasons. The items he has chosen represent something specifically, racial hate, and admiration aimed towards a dark point in Germany's history, specifically the Nazi regime. They don't represent or mean anything else at all. There is no way around it. To try to state otherwise is a insult to every person that died at the hands of Nazi controlled Germany, and every person that fought against the SS and the SA.

No excuses, rationales, or advocacies for fictional demons here... just trying to look at this all from a logical point of view based on the evidence rather than appealing to emotion. But if we're gonna go the route of being insulting to the people who died at the hands of the Nazis, then it would also be fine to say that modern-day Christians are an insult to those people who died in the Crusades... there's tons of such historical parallels you can draw there. To even begin to accept the majority of ideals involving Nazi Germany is just plain stupid in the modern age, but there are all kinds of similar ideologies that are rooted in bloodshed, intolerance, xenocide, etc. that are all alive and well today but are championed by millions. To single out one and ignore the rest is intellectually dishonest. Again, I'm in no way defending Xray, but this has gotten out of hand for the wrong reasons. If you're going to hate the guy, do it because of how he acts, not because of what he believes in.

I don't hate the guy, even though he is a dick face. He hasn't actually done anything to invoke "hatred", maybe scorn would be a better description. Disapprove of however, yes, I clearly disapprove of the guy, for obvious reasons, and what he believes in is a valid enough reason to do so. The fact that he doesn't even have the guts to own up to it in public when he gets called out on it, even more so.

And in general, I myself don't knowingly do any kind of business with that type of person, but its about freedom of choice, people can deal with whomever they want. Just considering everything about the guy, buyer beware. If dealing with the guy I'd be more inclined to only have any packages coming from him go to a po box instead of my personal address due to his volatile nature.

Also, the skin head Neo Nazi thing, its actually more prominent in the north east and also the west coast then it is in the south. Here its one of those things where you'd only see these guys once in a blue moon unless you go out of your way to notice them, because that crap is pretty discouraged around here. They don't go around doing white power marches or shouting racial slurs or anything. They just keep it on the down low because they are the extreme minority.

Rover, I'd also like to point out, I am not a religious person, but I don't find religion in general as offensive, unless it is used as a tool to do so, as in the case with cults or groups like the Westboro Baptist Church, who go out of their way to spread hate. I can easily admit both positive and negative things have come from religion, however I cant even begin to fathom what positive things can be taken from the beliefs of the Nazi SS and SA and their racial purity doctrine. There is nothing positive to idolize or identify with in Hitler or his hate propaganda machine, and you are going to be hard pressed to find a single Neo Nazi that doesn't feel there is some armageddon race war coming, who would have no problems with a modern day "cleansing" as it were.

Until then, both them and even the Klan have no problems biding their time, making due with what they feel they have currently. Most all of their beliefs revolve around racial purity and hate of other races. Don't be fooled into thinking otherwise. The few "on the fence" types in their groups may try to spin it some other way so they don't look so bad, but they are the select few who would have no real influence in their groups, both Neo-Nazi wise and in the Klan, and who usually eventually go full gear in it themselves, or who drop out when they realize their heart is not in it.

agreed 100%
his treatment of some here has been over the line, but fault him for his actions not his beliefs.
i have friends of different races, religions, beliefs.
some were raised on racial hatred, some weren't.
but my Muslim friend married a Hindu, and has no issues with Jews.
i know a doctor from the south, KKK knighted who is friends with his black neighbors.
my point is his beliefs will be based on his upbringing, but to prejudge him on that in itself prejudiced.

We're not ignoring other atrocities, we're just staying on topic. If some knucklehead comes along and proclaims "Europeans and the U.S. didn't kill 50,000,000 Native Americans!", I'll happily beat them into the ground too. Also, the Nazi regime really is a unique case where everyone should be on the same page. Unlike the Turks and the Israelis and the U.S. and the Church and other perpetrators of genocide who continue to coverup their crimes and manufacture propaganda, the Germans came clean on their fuck up. The leaders were tried and executed, the citizens swallowed their lumps, and everyone managed to acknowledge and learn something from the tragedy (other than the hundred or so corporations who profited and got off Scott free). We're also very fortunate that the Nazi's meticulously documented all of their crimes and the numbers they killed, although they did it for the self-aggrandizing reasons at the time. So, unlike other genocides surrounded by the murk of time or propaganda, Nazi sympathizers should fucking know better.

Following any ideology blindly is always a bad thing. Whether or not Xray does this is beyond me, though it seems like he might. Still, pages upon pages are being dedicated to this, and that's rather sad. I think we should all just get back to playing teh turbob. :D

It doesn't work like that, and you are going to find that many who no longer wish to do business with Xray would feel you are opting to remove evidence in favor of Xray. I do think however enough has been said in normal threads. The rest could be moved to FS. Honestly I was surprised to see the topic being brought back up in this thread considering all the others that exist covering it.

I thought this was a desktop screenshot thread?  I'd post mine, but it's nothing really special. :P

It doesn't work like that, and you are going to find that many who no longer wish to do business with Xray would feel you are opting to remove evidence in favor of Xray.

One way of doing that is this:

Well, I think it goes without saying that I am unlikely to do any further business with the guy. I bought one of the signs before all this went down, but I have no regrets... I like it, it's pretty cool. However, I don't do business with people who espouse any kind of hate concepts, which is why I also don't do business with people involved in the KKK or have ties to extremist groups like PETA.

Quote from: OldRover on 09/11/2012, 03:19 PMOH, ok... now I see it... you really have to look for it though, which means that someone was really scrutinizing... you can barely see it unless you're actually looking intently for something to throw at someone.
However Professor managed to identify the swastikas, he did and it led to other discoveries about the guy. There were plenty of reasons to look for throwing something at the guy after he dropped pedophilia charges against people here.

QuoteHowever, that flag isn't a Nazi symbol. That lightning bolt icon has been used more times than the Iron Cross has.
That's the weakest of the evidence because I couldn't match it to anything, I'll admit, but much more damning evidence exists now. The center part seems to be a bolt like the SS insignia uses, but I'm not sure.

QuoteAs for the SA sign... someone needs to actually read the auction description:

"This is NOT an original Nazi/Third Reich era artifact, nor is it made to promote/endorse any ideology. Will not ship to Europe, or anywhere else that bans Nazi/Hitler related items."
I certainly did read it and interpreted it as nothing more than a way to insult one's intelligence given what it actually is.

QuoteThe evidence points not to a Nazi sympathizer but to a right-wing conservative with the typical interest in war history. At worst, you could say that he's a racist... or maybe he just hates Obama like all other right-wingers.
More evidence was later discovered on the site chimpout .com, a site dedicated to portraying blacks as subhuman monsters and his photobucket account was matched up to an account there that referred to blacks as "grease-loving chimps..." Along with the chimp racism animated GIF of Michelle Obama also found on the same site, I think the evidence is in that this guy is a racist, hate-mongering lunatic with some kind of affection for Nazi-era symbolism for him to go to the trouble of making lighted signs for sale on eBay, to go THAT far... I don't shoot from the hip and make wild-eyed accusations unless they can be backed up well enough and I think that's the case here.

Eh, funny, exactly what I think about the majority of democrats and Occupy Wall Street criminals.

I know this will come off as a dumb question, but how do you take a screenshot of your entire desktop?
