    Now, now! Hawking doesn't deserve THAT kind of talk. He's certainly entitled to his opinion.

    But yeah, if he really wants to take this stand with complete integrity, he should dump the Israeli tech he's using. Professor Hawking, I recommend you use state-of-the-art Palestinian audio technology instead!

    That's like using actors to state political positions for people. Silly. I use a mechanic to fix my trucks, not dictate foreign policy.

    ' Israeli ' technology is largely derived from work in North American establishments - and on the backs of the Palestinian people whose land the Israelis are occupying.

    Of course, following the moronic logic expounded, above , all disabled Israelis should be stripped of anything not originating in Israel. In fact, extrapolating that stupidity would result in ALL Israelis being stripped of everything not originating in Israel and the fascist State would disappear in around six months.

    Hey-----------?

    Again- and for the slower ships of the convoy- ' Israeli ' technology is largely derived from work in North American establishments.


    You bet. Keep flogging the horse- there's more to come.

    It's Israeli Technology lol. Intel made it, donates it to him and he feels just fine about it and when it suits him, he hates Israel meaning he is hypocritical and, you endorse his hypocrisy which makes you and all those who feel the same Israel lovers despite what you wish to portray counter to this fact.

    words can do that

    each comprehend time as relativ (life and death). How to undertand that parameter is sysmetric.
    agreed

    the new paradyme requires complete rewrite

    this of 'rocks that roll by choice'

    Seemed he was of that mind.

    There is nothing inherently Israeli about the integrated circuit. Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce of the pioneers.

    because stephen is using equipment, (mobility/survival) made with american paid israeli tech, that he should come to the event?

    I would if i was him, and tell them all than their religious belief about a mount, a temple, to be built over the dome, is like pointing a gun to your head

    All the Israeli-built chips are based upon the previous North American Intel concepts and design philosophy and the Israeli technicians are trained by Intel to work in its Israeli subsidiary. There is no such thing as an independent Israeli Intel company which builds chips for Stephen Hawking's apartheid-damning vocal equipment. :mrgreen: Tough titty.

    As someone here properly commented, Hawking should wholly embrace every palestinian technology he can find.

    Using that logic the conference he is boycotting is only expanding on ideas based on previous international ones and is not an Israeli only one therefore he is boycotting an international conference that is is only hosted by Israel which is discussing the entire world. In any case,Intel supports Israel and in fact, the facility is built on disputed Palestinian land and employs eight thousand people. And, while Israel does not own Intel, the chips and equipment used by Hawking were designed and made there by Israeli workers paid for by Israel supporter Intel .

    To continue using them free of charge is to support Israel as it supports Intel which in turn gets one third of it's exports from there.


    Not saying that at all as far as I'm concerned he can use the stuff till the cows come home.. Just saying it is hypocritical of him to use it and not go for the reasons discussed

    What??? Nothing to do with Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce circuit?

    While the i7 is a good chip, it's design does not rise to the level of a major revolutionary breakthrough. Although champagne is made in many countries, champagne is essentially a French innovation. Although modern jazz is played by a variety of musicians, it is essentially an Afro-American innovation. Although many countries make ICBMs, ICBMs are essentially a German (specifically Nazi) innovation.

    Kilby's innovation was so revolutionary he was awarded a Nobel prize. Noyce's innovation was so revolutionary, that he was able to start Intel from it. To say that the Intel Chip has nothing to do with the ICs of Kilby and Noyce, is like saying a gear has nothing to do with a wheel. The microchip is nothing but a sophisticated array of ICs. Although the i7 is quite an improvement, it's design does not represent a major technological breakthrough. Not only that, but that voice synthesizer could be designed without Israeli assistance. Therefore, I would not characterize that voice synthesizer as based on Israeli technology.

    Hawking has ripped a below-waterline hole in the Zionist propaganda machinery. That's evident from the desperate and degenerate pro-Zionist posts here . The world's intelligentsia, Hawking's action implies, should dump Israel. It is, after all, an actively fascist pariah State built upon ethnic cleansing and apartheid.
