If the device only has 32-bit PCI then it is limited to the lower 4G of memory space, if it is 64-bit PCI then it can go anywhere.
More correct:
If the device only support Single Address Cycle then it is limited to the lower 4G of memory space, if it support Dual Address Cycle then it can go anywhere.
Now of course, none of this is even close to being PR 2.0 compliant. Most dates back to what I call "legacy" PR, which is flawed and obsolete nowadays. And I bet that many companies that does this are ran by MBAs that believe in shareholder value and the quarterly earnings game, another things that was flawed from the beginning and thus obsolete and not what I recommend.
In its very early years IBM wouldn't sell you a PC without either PC-DOS or CP/M
They would, but that was for the cassette-only models where the ROM BASIC had all the software needed to drive the cassette. To use the floppy drive, you had to get an OS. And the CP/M was actually CP/M-86.
Yea, it is only because of the nature of manufacturing of most physical goods that only the originator can make copies and thus be able to sell a lot of copies long after it is finished, but that is what intellectual property is trying to mimic with information that is easily copyable by everyone.
(The Microsoft Vista operating system [time.com] was, it is said, not a failure, but an intentional method of getting people to pay for two operating systems, by deliberately [pcmag.com] releasing an unfinished one.)
Really? I would not go that far, especially without evidence.
the very same day that the Wall Street Journal announced that picky eating may be recognized in the 2013 DSM as a psychiatric disorder.
I am subscribed to the NaturalNews newsletter, which talks a lot about this kind of stuff. They even have a Disease Mongering Engine to make disorders up.
Personally I'd just not use stock-based compensation, as I don't think success should be measured on stock price. How about a percentage of the company's profits?
You hear about this all the time, people post Facebook pictures of themselves at a wild party in university and find it hurts jobs later. It usually isn't that the folks doing the hiring are Puritans or anything, they are just dumbasses. They did the same kind of shit themselves when they were young but have conveniently forgotten about it. They think "Well this sort of thing doesn't reflect well for our company," and give the person a miss.
In my case, what I might be worried about is that I've posted stories about my work environment. Now I've never named my employer, mostly because that comes too close to making it too easy to identify me, but still. I'm not worried now, I work for a public institution and thus I have a right to do it (HR specifically says so) as the tax payers have a right to know. But at some time in the future I go for another job and maybe that company thinks "Well we like the guy, but he talks about his employer online. We really don't want that, have to give him a miss."
Now of course none of these are a good idea in the PR 2.0 age where candor, honesty, and authenticity are increasingly being valued.
Slashdot Mirror
It is not a legal duty, but I have this slashdot submission on exactly this: http://slashdot.org/submission/1285008/Why-Modern-Business-Is-Bad-for-Your-Mental-Health Mod it up if you want to discuss this further.
Don't forget the Windows codepages that has it at 0x80, which was where the ALT+0128 was coming from.
To be more precise, yes it is more open than iPhone but not as open as it could have been because the carriers SUCK.
Yes, but there is also the issue of "RIAA" accounting which was discussed in another Slashdot article. Anyone know about the history of it?
Fundamentally it's based on artificial scarcity of something that can be endlessly copied for virtually no cost. You do not see a problem with this?
I in fact have an entire series on this on my blog: http://yuhongbao.blogspot.com/2010/06/artificial-scarcity-intro.html
It isn't just Windows, it is any OS that supports PCI.
If the device only has 32-bit PCI then it is limited to the lower 4G of memory space, if it is 64-bit PCI then it can go anywhere.
More correct: If the device only support Single Address Cycle then it is limited to the lower 4G of memory space, if it support Dual Address Cycle then it can go anywhere.
It is not the MPAA/RIAA itself that are using these accounting tricks, it is the member organizations that are doing so.
On the other hand, why do you think Sun was losing money?
These days, however, the corporate secrecy is verging on paranoia, and so I don't dare use my regular nickname.
Yes, I know. How do you think it would compare to say Apple?
I have this Ars thread, BTW: http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=1113243

Not to say the artificial sweetener used has other worse problems.

They would, but that was for the cassette-only models where the ROM BASIC had all the software needed to drive the cassette. To use the floppy drive, you had to get an OS. And the CP/M was actually CP/M-86.
Which OS was it for and what was the name?
Yea, it is only because of the nature of manufacturing of most physical goods that only the originator can make copies and thus be able to sell a lot of copies long after it is finished, but that is what intellectual property is trying to mimic with information that is easily copyable by everyone.
And it would be interesting to see how many of these releases that only sold a few copies ended up being pirated widely on things like P2P networks.
As promised, I finally posted a series of articles on artificial scarcity on my blog.

Do you really want somehting you said 20 years ago in some gaming forum to come up in a job interview?
On that matter, see this thread: http://politics.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=1653880&cid=32227342
Yes, long mode requires PAE be enabled and use similar page tables, thus NX works in long mode too.
