from the paper, which you claim to have read: "Several Intel instructions break hardware virtualization Requirement 3B. The rule states that instructions are sensitive if they read or change sensitive registers and/or memory locations such as a clock register and interrupt registers."
and even better
"Since the Intel Pentium architecture is not truly virtualizable, current VMMs for the hardware base [36] must use a bit of ``trickery" to realize a VMM. Each method must detect sensitive but unprivileged instructions before they are executed by a VM."
compare that to N. Korea. It is nice to compare the koreas since it show the difference between the left (n korea) and right (s korea) of the political spectrum. where would you rather live?
ok, you claim to have a background in science as well, so i will post this to you. Yes aerodynamics is full of theories and the day better theories emerge, they will be replaced. Do you disagree with this? we don't go around calling everything a law because they may not always be true. For example, the law of conservation of matter is not completely true and was modified.
Tisk. You were doing so well until this post. Very well crafted troll. I didn't realize I was dealing with a troll until the last line of your post.
you also made a few mistakes. you know, before spewing out insults , look at the definition that i put up "5 : a plausible or scientifically acceptable general principle or body of principles offered to explain phenomena " are you saying that is wrong? are you claiming that this definition of theory does not apply to the theory of evolution? What is even more amusing is that at no point have i said i believe in creationism, yet you apply that label to me.
right, i am a "dishonest creationist" now because i wrote a post you disagree with. Very mature. Actually, you disagree because i call the theory of evolution a theory. tisk.
Theory, 5 : a plausible or scientifically acceptable general principle or body of principles offered to explain phenomena 6 a : a hypothesis assumed for the sake of argument or investigation b : an unproved assumption : CONJECTURE c : a body of theorems presenting a concise systematic view of a subject
well, evolution is just a theory. if you don't accept that then you cant claim to be a scientist. Evolution has not been proven in a lab it does explain some phenomena so it is the current theory.
it is actually much better than wikipedia. I say this becasue it is edited for content so you wont see goatse or other stupid stuff on an article about george bush. in addition it eliminates the "anti-elite bias" that was the topic of a recent article on the flaws of wikipedia here on slashdot. If someone is an expert in the field their content is not watered down by people who are not.
"What this is really quite similar to is region encoding on DVDs. 100% bullshit artificial restriction"
well not really the regions on DVDs are so some poorer regions can get cheaper DVDs and not cut into the profits of places where a higher price is ok. It helps prevent a situtation like windows where it is charged similiar prices everywhere and that leads to more priacy

It's so easy to take things out of context but it also says something about the point you are trying to make.
indy media's been raided and there are anti-war protesters outside michael jackson's trial and this is what you report! have some priorities people! i couldn't resist... there has to be a priorities post evry 4/1
Slashdot Mirror
have you read anything about Mao? it is all full of talk of freedom and peace. You would probably agree with much of it.
this is a fantastic example of what the left saying one thing (peace, love, freedom etc) and doing another.
out of curiosity, do you even know how Goldberg defined virtual machines? and why do you post as an AC (emphasis on the C ) if you think you are right
from the paper, which you claim to have read :
"Several Intel instructions break hardware virtualization Requirement 3B. The rule states that instructions are sensitive if they read or change sensitive registers and/or memory locations such as a clock register and interrupt registers."
and
even better
"Since the Intel Pentium architecture is not truly virtualizable, current VMMs for the hardware base [36] must use a bit of ``trickery" to realize a VMM. Each method must detect sensitive but unprivileged instructions before they are executed by a VM."
i think that speaks for itself.
right, if you actually know the tech you know that a handful of instructions CANT be virtualized. Don't take my word for it, read the paper :
Analysis of the Intel Pentium's Ability to Support a Secure Virtual Machine Monitor
PS I dont blame you, but cant believe you got modded Insightful. It reflects on the sad state of slashdot today
for starters, the x86 architecture can't be virtualized which is a real big setback.
sorry wrong link. this is it Darwin
actually the unix under OS X (darwin ) is free and open source. you can get the source here . The GUI is not open source but everything else is.
compare that to N. Korea. It is nice to compare the koreas since it show the difference between the left (n korea) and right (s korea) of the political spectrum. where would you rather live?

Theory,

no, i think i am right.

isync API is open in 10.4. I was writing a sync for Qtopia to ical and stopped when i realized that 10.4 would make it really easy
sigh. The english comprehension on slashdot has really gone down.
shoot(v): to strike with a missile especially from a bow or gun
kill(v): to deprive of life
if you actually red the rest , he compares it to punching a guy in a bar because he is abusing a lady.
if it was bundled with a free slushee
funny when you consider that the Soviets were leftists.
yes, in context,
""You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil," Mattis said. "You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them.""

"You're either a troll or an idiot. Actually no those two might not be mutually exclusive."
Funny that you would call me a troll or an idiot and then think out loud that "or" makes something mutually exclusive.
" (Hey shooting people is fun)"
yay! anti-americanism!
