  1. What if there was no such thing as bloat? on 4 GB May Be Vista's RAM Sweet Spot · · Score: 0

    The original parent post on the "for loop" topic was describing a single-execution of a "for loop." Think of all the things that could have changed in the condition of said "nuclear reactor" that couldn't be throttled while in that "for loop." He was using more of a micro-controller with application-specific processing than was an actively re-Turring computing system. Operating systems of today are designed and implemented to allow code to cyclically branch their execution so one crucial task can continue executing and not transfer to another task that is without competancy of the prior. I have encountered this in the DOS era, when my program would need to write data to a file while actively monitoring the condition of another unrelated element in real-time with the disk IO.

    The problem today is everyone writes software like how they read a Holy Bible as a 1-step at a time execution plan when in-fact everything needs to be done all at once and independant of one-another with perhaps the capability to respawn processes of an unrelated process when one another fail. In short, today's Operating Systems appear to be taking on the role of INITD in the Unix world; they aren't even operating systems, but just application-layer code abstractions.

    Looking to the Uniform Commercial Code, has anyone not considered that all transmittals through the webserver are intellectual property granted to the domain registrant? I know of a number of Public Notice directories that re-print on a webserver their bulletins and notice from suitors. Foremost, acknowledging communication with Google and cerain evidence of secured insignia and design transmitted is conclusive as prior art brought into commerce not to prejudice the claims of another.

    Foremost, the claim made in Germany was filed (submit to the jurisprudence and diction of the trustee to minister on behalf) and oath and bond evinced to the judge weighting on the matter. There would need to be evidence that Google made use of its GMail to prejudice the claims of GMAIL.DE, of which I and others have not seen.

    Many are over-looking the fact that trademarks and procedure, collected under an independent title for said documents, with an independently assumed trademark that is not derived or conferred from another, is fair to proceed given their unique merits. GMail is everywhere; it's in the trees, it's with Google Mail, it's with a (G)Hermanian, and it is lawful to continue the lawful use of said trademark as long as not intending to interrupt or defraud another's regular use.

    In other words, that GMail collected and utilized on the 31-st Day of the first Month in the Year 2007 at 1324 and 987-miliseconds+ATOMIC_TIMESTAMP from MAIL.GOOGLE.COM does not infringe or detract from this GMail collected and utilized on the 31-st Day of the first Month in the Year 2007 at 1324 and 987-miliseconds+ATOMIC_TIMESTAMP from GMAIL.DE. The same goes for the nonsense of people forcing their IP and trademark to compel with threats/duress/coercion for a lawful man of the Hershey or (Mike)Rowe family to change their name to somthing that isn't seen as similar (yet independent) of a name adapted to a corporation.

    Does anyone remember about Blizzard persuance upon anyone seen using Starcraft(tm) or similar IP, without question of independance, yet they are injunctioned at all from pursuing the trademark helled by a reacreational vessel and off-land vessel company Starcraft?

    Most people would buy it because Tesco is their implicitly appointed Market. I profess, my main market would be that of a bi-weekly attraction to a "flee market" in the parking-lot of a School; be the cause, I know the things I am buying or trusted to hold. The Article text alludes that one of eight units of currency in that country fall into the hands of Tesco. Almost the same can be said about Homo Depot and Walwart in UNITED STATES. With research in hand, it is to know that they are nothing more than a monopoly Clearing House that opens space for products they sell on behalf of whomever has patent on that property. Looking to the numbers, most of the products are manufactured in foreign countries. Wouldn't you know it, the private industry is decimated by these markets not giving handicap to the struggling entrepreneurs that are not able to compete with slave labours that brought the foreign domesticated products into the Store.

    I expect Tesco Office and Tesco Anti-Virus to have the same strength and Sound protection as a Homo Depot "door" (empty) or the same Genuine(tm) guaruntee of a Walwart "greeter" (feigned).

  25. It means somthing better is to do. Imagine... on Caller ID Watches · · Score: 0

    It would make sense for a watch as this to be PROGRAMMABLE to receive the state of a remote process. Think of a watch with a simple Quarts timestamp on the front for local awareness, yet the face is covered with no less than 20 small buttons as would a calculator watch; a USB port is on the side, from where there is software that you can RSYNC configuration data so the internals will assign a ceratain button to a task that will query a process or /proc on a remote server. That process depends on the preference of whomever holds The Watch.

    Who needs to be killed just to get a watch that let me query the count of mail in the .mailbox, disk-usage via looking to /proc, server processing stress, network bandwidth usage, the percentile of completion for a database re-organization or massive file-system check, system environment temperature, or KITCO price for an asset. Better yet, just have a LCD Watch with a scroll wheel on the side that has a little Rolodex-style directory listing so I can use a standard button to choose the profile or character of data to syncronize onto and then the wheel to scroll through the data fields being updated.

    BlueTooth? Why only BlueTooth? We're not Gillete! I expect 802.11G, with a hookup for an external antennae. :-)

    Besides all this, we're long over-due for a 386 PDA. I'm waiting-out for a VAX fab-shrunk down to a PDA. There is no excuse why technologists should boast on technology that tries to undermine the already-consistent capabilities of yester-years expensive UNIX equipment, and thereby ignore their prestige by inventing architecture after architecture that does nothing more than create structure and debris to clutter the intelect base that was meant to be pledged for useful information. There is more worldly matter of computer architecture implementation than there is on knowledge that was meant to be stored by said computer technology. That just isn't right!
