Wow, yeah, completely brilliant. Let's also implement bash on a pci card so my shell can be sooo much faster. Have you tried blackbox as a wm? Without having a system to check right now, I would hazard a guess that it uses less system resources than an instance of bash (at least the same ballpark). Sawfish (which you mentioned) is another good choice, just don't run GNOME. Or if you're really worried about it, run twm.
Actually you can record at 640x480 with the hauppage cards, they only advertise 320x240 for some reason. I use virtuadub in windows to do it. Recording at 640x480, applying some filters, then mpeg4'ing it can result in some really high quality caps (if you have a clean source).
I just wish I had the wintv-pvr so I didn't have to have my computer tied up compressing to mpeg.
Why has Borland never dominated over Microsoft in the PC compiler market?
Also MS raided Borland's compiler group, "stealing" away many of their employees. Borland sued MS, I don't remember how it turned out, but that combined with the Borland custom Windows libs that never completely caught on (OWL or something?) almost killed Borland.
I still have a copy of Turbo C++ 2.0 that I break out from time to time.
He was 'discovered' when Nicholos Cage's wife rented an old underground art film of his from a video store in Santa Monica (CA, USA). Nick Cage saw the film, and decided he had to have the director work on his production company's next film. Kind of a cool story I think - which comes from a reliable source.
A minor point, but I would draw a wide line between the "free" licenses (GPL, BSD, etc ) and "corporate" EULAs. The free licenses grant you more rights than you would normally be granted via copyright law. You are allowed to modify and redistribute code. Corporate EULAs restrict your rights further than you would normally be restricted by copyright law.
Backslash is also the quote character for shell, perl, or special chars in C. Color is the scoping operator in C++. Both keys may also find use in emoticons:-\
Do you find it sloppy when movies show phone numbers as 555-1212? Like you said, they just don't want idiot movigoers to hammer some poor guy's phone/computer.
Actually a bunch of power plants are inactive, due to environmental regulations. I heard from one source that only 1/3 of the power plants in CA were up and running. Another problem is crappy infrastructure linking to other states. If there were better power lines to other states it would be easier to buy and sell large amounts of power. Unfortunately the CA utils continue to sell power when there is a slight surplus, only to repurchase power later in the day at a higher rate.
Altogether the situation is a complete SNAFU, but I have always had power (too bad no days off work!)
Okay, so you're an egg, good for you. You can speak chinese better than your ABC buds, this brings you closer to a billion people how? My point is, the "importance" of a language has everything to do with context, and not absolute numbers. If I was doing business in Europe I bet I could do pretty damn well with English and French. But if I was looking into manufacturing in Europe, then maybe I should pick up some German. In none of these cases would Chinese help. If I was doing business in Japan, then Mandarin wouldn't help much, would it?
I bet your motivations are to pick up on Chinese girls - here's a tip: they don't like it when you try too hard.
Cantonese is only spoken in parts of sourthern China, Hong Kong, Vancouver and Silicon Valley. You're probably thinking of Mandarin as the most spoken language in the world, though just because lots of people speak a language doesn't make it valuable to know.
By the way, Cantonese is pretty damn hard to learn (more tones than Mandarin) and is closer to ancient chinese than other 'dialects.'
I hate to tell you, but there the majority of horrible child abuse that occurs doesn't involve the internet. There are horrible people out there, and the Internet isn't going to fix that or make it worse.
Too bad IBM's focus for the PPC is high end servers (very high end servers...), and Moto's focus has been the embedded market, leaving Apple and its customers to suffer.
Hopefully the new faster CPUs will help remedy this situation.
You have no idea what you're talking about, do you? Are you saying that the process scheduler is better in MacOS than in WinNT/Linux/BSD/BeOS/QNX/Solaris whatever? Doubtful - MacOS 9 was the first version with even decent multitasking, and OSX probably has a scheduler very similar to the free BSDs. Or are you trying to say that the PPC chip has more stages in its pipeline? PPC actually had a shorter pipeline than the Pentiums, which is one reason why the clock speed has been stuck at a lower speed.

Let me you introduce you to Mr. Ship and Mr. Airplane. Think for a while how building and maintaining a railroad would be cheaper than sending giant cargo ships.
So a film makes unrelistic predictions, and you are dissapointed that they haven't come true? I'm dissapointed I drank a Heinnekin and didn't end up with the hot chick in the TV commercial. Science and technology is developing at least as fast as it ever has before. 2001 completely missed nanotech & genetic engineering. Which do you think will be more important in the future of humankind: nanobots or videophones?
It was suppose to be fantasy - the wire work was exaggerated to provide mythic, dreamlike motions - much like dance. The choreogropher is THE wire work guy, so he could definitely pull off anything he wanted.

you know you can run gdb in an emacs window and the code window will indicate which line of code you are stepping through.
But I'm guessing you don't have much experience with these tools.
