B8 00 4C = load AX register with 004C (hex)
CD 21 = Int 21h = DOS service vector
The DOS service is specified in AH, which in
this case is 4C, which is return with error code.
(Program Termination). The return status is AL,
which in this case is 00. So the return status the program that is terminating is 0, it probably means success.
No, Bush has acted quite a bit more conservative after being elected than the image he and his handlers portrayed him as having during the campaign. The phrase "Uniter, not a divider", for example. Since election, he hasn't thrown the Dems a bone at all, which would go a long way towards appearing as if he is willing to compromise and actually work in a bipartisan manner. Like, oh, roads in national forests, arsenic in drinking water, slashing funds for energy research (except "Clean Coal", an oxymoron right there), pissing off both Koreas, pissing on the Kyoto treaty, the abortion gag rule, "faith-based" charities, etcetc. It's not that all these actions are necessarily bad, but altogether they paint a picture of a much more conservative White House than most people expected. (Especially since
the election was so damned close).
Also, the NRA mag was, of course, a bit on the extreme edge of rhetoric. However, conservative elected officials often spit bullshit on national TV that's just as wacky as some of the loony left. One example would be the rhetoric around the prayer-in-schools issue; I've heard quite a few politicians claim that this was somehow oppression of Christians. Consider, also, phrases like "the homosexual agenda" and "political correctness" that get thrown about by the right anytime the left complains about queerfolk getting brutalized. It goes on and on...
Face it, all politicians are willing to use catchphrases and soundbites to avoid forcing their constituents to actually THINK; it's much easier just to get them worked up and livid.
I almost never hear insults or heated rhetoric coming from that end.
Dude, you're not listening very carefully.:) "Goddamn treehuggers don't care about jobs. Damned liberals want to take away our cars. Touchy-feely leftists want to make religion illegal. BlahBlahBlah." Seriously; read a copy of one of the NRA's mags and you'll see a boatload of insults and heated rhetoric, and that's just about one issue! Having said that, I must say I consider the 2nd Amendment important, and am myself a member of the NRA. I just don't have much use for inflammatory rhetoric, whether it's from the left or the right.
It's particularly painful 'cause I'm pretty liberal on some stuff, pretty conservative on others, so no matter who I'm talking to I'm going to get insulted.
And considering Dubya ran as a moderate conservative, and has shown himself to be a big-C Conservative, you have to admit that deceptive campaigning works for everyone, unfortunately.
You should read up a bit on what the space elevators would do; the physics are simple and the concept is cool:
It'd go out twice as far as geosync orbit, so it'd sit stably in geosync orbit, which would be necessary if it were anchored to the ground. Something would ride up the elevator to geosync orbit, and at that point, it's weightless.
Without writing up a bio, I'll just say that I am a uniquely talented hacker; I have never met anyone better (and I've been around).
It's absolutely amazing how many "hackers" I've met
who claim that they're the Best Thing Ever. Then I see their code and am reassured that, yes, indeed, they're suffering from Overinflated Ego Syndrome.
I dunno if this applies to you, but your statement reminds me of the attitude an ex-coworder of mine had. *shudder*
Mr Gates, I told you to not drink when you're on your medication. I thought your performance during the trial would have convinced you that I was right.
Hey, I worked for a guy who sold addresses for junk mail, and those exact same envelopes you're talking about. Yeah, the guy was a smarmy piece of shit bastard playing on the edge of the law, but at least I myself didn't have any part in the junk mail shit. I worked for him in a computer shop doing repairs (and, no, I didn't cheat customers. I actually got yelled at for giving away too much time for free...).
Ohyeah, my point. Those envelopes are fucking EXPENSIVE to use in junkmail campaigns. So when you get'em, at least take pleasure in the fact that the bastard who sent it to you spent way too much money to have people just throw'em away.
Even if they shrink or lighten currently existing equipment, they'll just have the soldiers carry more shit with them. Hell, 100 years from now soldiers'll still carry 120 poinds of stuff, but 20 pounds of that will be a small fusion-powered factory that uses nano-bots to create ammunition from the surrounding soil.
well, maybe not, but they'll always be able to find more shit for the soldier to carry.
Well,I can appreciate the hate-Walmart tendency, but I still believe that domain names should simply be first-come, first-serv. If a company was too late to register a domain name before some squatter, toughshit.
But, of course, they're gonna give domains to the most powerful company that demands it, because Life Sucks. But that doesn't mean that I think everyone should play that game;just because Walmart is a big evil fuckstick of a company doesn't mean this guy should be.
Keep in mind that random mutations have the 'power' that they can fill niches that an intelligent guider (humans) wouldn't have thought about or realized. An analogy would be finding solutions for extremely hard math problems, like travelling salesman. Most of the 'best fits' have come from randomly-evolving algorithms, and tend to do much better than those designed by humans.
Real-time means that there is a guarantee that a certain event will be handled in a certain amount of time. In other words, no (or very, very little) chance of starvation. Real-time doesn't have anything to do with "date and time-of-day".
I waited. I wasn't in a huge hurry since I SUCK at tribes anyway, even though I've been playing for a coupla years. I do want to get Tribes2, though, so I have a new place to humiliate myself, and I decided to buy from Loki since I think Loki's awesome. I bought SimCity3k from theme a couple of weeks ago, and I love it. (Yeah, I know SC3k is an old game, but it's a good one). Well, except that SC3k seems to have a memory leak, but that's no different than my friend's Windoze version I, ah, borrowed from him awhile back.
I'd like to see MS sell little stuffed paperclips. I can use my LEGO Mindstorms set to build a robotic skeleton, use the paperclip as a 'skin', and have it go haywire with an AK47 in Redmond.

I agree that the US tends to act like a bully and push other countries around, but we have to isolate that from this. The embassy bombing was certainly the fault of a US agency, a spectacular failure of intelligence gathering.
But, in this case, any honest examination of all known facts (what few there are) points towards the collision being the fault of the Chinese pilot. The US should apologize to the world for being a bully in general, but we should NOT apologize to the Chinese for this specific incident because this specific incident IS NOT THE FAULT OF THE U.S. OR ITS PILOTS. It's a matter of principle.
I agree with a previous poster, that the U.S. should just ask the Chinese to let a neutral 3rd party investigate and lay blame on the responsible party if they can find one. The U.S. should make a promise of an apology, if found at fault, as part of the deal.
It's just as braindead and retarded to avoid something because it's popular as it is to get into something because it's popular. Either way, you're basing YOUR actions based on what "everyone else" thinks.
If you're into FreeBSD because of what it does for you, that's great. If you're into it because Linux isn't "weird" or l33t enough for you, you're a dumbass.

What?
Of course you can open sockets on ports. That's the entire point. But a process has be UID 0 (root) to bind to a port < 1024 (or 1023. I ferget).
Apache works with this by starting as root, binding to the port, then spawning less-abled children that actually deal with the data flowing through the port.
Yeah, OS X will be. But it helps that Apple controls the entire process, and hardware, and has a lot of money to spend on it. If every software house on the planet knew they could just target RedHat (for example), and everyone was using Gnome/Enlightenment, and knew everyone had certain hardware, then yeah, Linux would be a helluva lot easier for end users, also.
The price you pay for Freedom is often confusion. I'm willing to deal with it.
Well, it might not be MPL. Maybe it's a landing craft from when NASA sent men to mars in the 60's to fake the moon landings, using the men that killed JFK as actors. The men ran into Elvis there, who killed them in a drunken barroom brawl after they insulted Yoda.
Many people share large numbers of songs on Napster, and to have to go in and re-name(or misspell) 100 or more files is a huge hassle, if you want to still be able to share them.
Screw that. Get a open-source napster client, and change the code to name-mangle "on-the-fly". Hell, change the outgoing search function to mangle, also, and the entire process would be invisible to the user.
