    How do you get that pie chart to screw up this bad?!

    Sending a letter to the previous address saying, "this address is wrong." is not an error, it's good practice to make it harder to re-route someone's mail without them noticing.

    I call bogus on the pie chart. However who doesn't like pie?

  • Wolfraider (unregistered)

    I call bogus also, looks like someone didn't do a very good job at copy paste, with all the white space at the bottom of the pie chart and all

    That was my gut reaction too, and it may be true. However, the shitty looking white pixels at the base of the pie chart is actually 100% legit, if you have an XP machine, take a look for yourself.

    If I received an email with the subject "Only Spicy Food Gives Me an Explosive Gain" I would expect it to be spam,actually.

    Either that, or something I really don't want to read anyway.

    That is true, but I was simply being a smartass. Still, I'd love to see algorythm that produced that.

    Yes, unless you like cardboard. Sorry, the Italians may have invented it, but we Americans made it better (like everything else ;)).

    In fact, I like the way Greek restaurants make pizza the best.

    Addendum (2011-03-25 12:23): One exception is pizzagaina. That stuff is delicious.

    My guess was (is) that it's a problem with refreshing the pie chart graphic. The dialog (probably) loads a pink (100% unused) chart, and then changes to the correct value as soon as it's done computing. If another window was overlapping when windows refreshed, then parts of the overlapped window may not be correctly drawn.

    To all the pie chart nay-sayers, there is no reason to assume this is faked, it always looks that shitty. This is a lossless grab taken from my XP workstation two minutes ago (note the white pixels at the bottom):

    You're right. Because those white pixels are always there, it is impossible that someone has added a vertically divided pink section. BTW, note that your image has a black divider between the pink and blue and the image in the article does not.

    Absolutely. Pizza is a food that demands to be hot, greasy, salty and eaten with copious amounts of beer while watching a TV that costs as much as a small car. Only the US could perfect such a thing.
