Heart failure, age 69. They're saying he died on the 17th, I think. Shame his son is set to succeed him and carry on the legacy...

You never know, he may be a better leader, or worse but give the son a chance.

I heard that people say Kim Jong Un is even worse than him. Plus, the fact that he has to establish himself as the new "dear leader" for a nation that was (forcefully) taught to love the man as a god for 17 years is... Something hard, that requires lots of extreme moves.

...A lot? I can't think of any others.
EDIT: Okay, there's the deal with Osama Bin Laden, but he wasn't quite considered a god. A prophet, maybe, to some. At any rate, that makes two, not quite a lot.

Steve Jobs ruined the computer industry. Now we get less for more. A guy who actually did stuff to farther computing, Dennis Richie, died a week later, and no one gave a damn, Fuck you Steve Jobs, fuck you.

True enough, Satar. Even Bill Gates was a better person than Jobs.
Dennis Ritchie created the C programming language, which then was used to make C++, which is used to make practically everything.

Steve Jobs invented the personal computer idiots. Others may have improved it, but the first personal computer was the Apple 1.

The first commercial personal computer that did not require assembly was the Micral N. Also, Steve Jobs didn't invent the Apple 1, Steve Wozniak did, idiot. Check you facts before you call everyone an idiot.

One, quit saying idiot, idiot. Two, Steve Jobs envisioned the personal computer and told Steve Wozniak what to do,while Steve W built it. Therefor, they co-invented it, therefor, he invented it.

Steve Wozniak designed it, Steve Wozniak built it, Steve Wozniak was the genius behind it. Steve Jobs just had the idea of selling these personal computers.

I was able - well, forced, really - to relive you saying "idiot." Again and again. Forever. You know, if you'd done that to somebody else, they might devote their existences to exacting revenge. Luckily I'm a bigger person than that. I'm happy to put this all behind us and get back to the forum. After all, we've got a lot to do, and only sixty more years to do it. More or less. I don't have the actuarial tables in front of me.Seriously, though, stop calling people idiots, and stop hypocritically telling people to stop saying that when you said the word more than anyone else. I should warn you for flaming, but instead I will just smite you for your poor behavior...

Steve Jobs? Invent the computer? Incorrect, but irrelevant to any conversation about Kim Jong-Il.

Yes, and I said computer, hence I was obviously not referring to your post. This is completely irrelevant to King Jong-Il, so get back on topic or it'll be locked.
