Slashdot Mirror

I guess you've looked at the XView libraries on a 64 bit PC. XView was created by Sun as a way of easing the transition from SunView (their proprietary windowing system) to the X Window System, and the code was later open sourced. 64 bit versions of the libraries wont run on amd64 / x86_64, despite being included in places like the Debian repositories. This is due to an assumption in the XView code about the size of data types - an assumption that doesn't hold for the 64 bit Intel world (details here). You may be able to get a 32 bit copy of the libraries running in compatability on a 64 bit version of Linux.

Jonathan Mayo: get your facts straight, and work on your reading comprehension. I never recommended you rewrite anything in Forth. I just mentioned OpenFirmware, which you mentioned on your resume, and that I worked with 20 years ago. I think it's interesting that we both know Forth. (forth ?know if honk else forth learn then). But I never suggested rewriting Micropolis in it!

You're really flying off the handle, accusing me of stalking: You wouldn't answer any of my questions on Slashdot, and you kept attacking me with bullshit, so I contacted you privately via email, where you kept on attacking me. What's so hard about punching "OrangeTide" into google? Your web site, www.orangetide.com: OrangeTide's Home Page is the first result. Your resume is the first link on that page. Your name, Jonathan Mayo, is written in big header text on that page, along with your home address in lovely San Jose, and your home and cell phone number and email address: jon.mayo@gmail.com. Your resume says you work for VMWare, and have worked for Cisco, Agami, Pillar Data Systems, Pioneer Research of America, DirectTV and Sparta Area School Systems. Did you publish all that information yourself, or did somebody else put up a fake resume under your name?

Why do you presume to act like you expect to be anonymous, if you use the exact same handle of slashdot as the name of your web page, and you publish your real name, address, email, and phone numbers on your resume on that web site? You're the one who chose the name of your slashdot user to be the same as the name as your web site, and put all that personal information up on your web site.

If you're trying to be anonymous on slashdot, and offended that I sent your personal email asking "What's your problem on slashdot?", then you've totally failed, and you're a complete idiot. Haven't you ever heard of google? Are you surprised it was so easy for me to look up all that personal information about you that YOU yourself publicly published, simply by typing "OrangeTide" into google?

Why did you publish all that personal information, if you don't want anyone knowing it or contacting you? You have pretty thin skin! Your slashdot profile doesn't say "Don't contact me" -- it just says "I hate slashdot". What's wrong with me sending you email to the address you published on your web site with the same name as your slashdot handle? You're the one acting like a nutjob for all to see, so I contacted you about it, to ask what your problem was. Do you really want me to discuss your behavioral problems in front of everyone instead of sending you personal email? Apparently so, therefore that's what I'm doing now, instead of keeping it private!

If it was so easy for me to punch your slashdot handle into Google, and get your real name, email address, home address and phone number, do you really think potential employers won't google for your name and read what you've written on slashdot? You should be more careful about making a total fool out of yourself on slashdot, because it might come up in a job interview (or you might never get that job interview in the first place, with anyone who's read what you've posted, because your postings are extremely foolish). Anyone can read your posting history to see what a frustrated dork you are.

If you were planning on playing Commander Keen, it would be a fine graphics card to own. Supports 132x60 text mode too, if you're one of those types that littles tiny letters. (Multi-sync monitor required)

Well if a bunch of blurry lines means it decoded correctly, then I'm there.

This is what I have.
