This one goes back a ways, but it's never too late to prove what a 
lying, babbling fool he is.


In Sep 2016 Feeb claimed:

1)  MS Visual Studio support for the C99 standard was "nearly TWENTY
     FUCKING YEARS behind the times."

2) "GNU/Linux had conformed to a 1999 standard in ... you
     guessed it ... 1999."



The reality:


*  The C99 standard was adopted in March 2000, so GuhNoo GCC couldn't
    have conformed to it in 1999.


*  Support for C99 was substantially complete in Visual Studio 2013


 
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/c99-library-support-in-visual-studio-2013/

    So that's 13 years after the C99 standard was adopted, not 20 as
    Feeb lied.


*  "C99 is substantially completely supported as of GCC 4.5"

    https://gcc.gnu.org/c99status.html

    So when was GCC 4.5.0 released?  Not until Apr 2010, way way way
    after the C99 standard was adopted.

    So it turns out GuhNoo support for C99 was *TEN FUCKING YEARS* behind
    the times, not 0 years as Feeb lied.




3 Feeb lies.
3 Feeb FAILS.

As usual.
