-O5 optimization is just mythology look at the gcc source if you don't beleive me. The highest it goes to is -O3.
Also, not that you made this mistake, there is no need to use -finline-functions and -frename-registers on top of O3 they are included.
A good flag to stick on O3 is -fomit-frame-pointer but it does break debugging so be sure to strip the binaries for that extra boost. Another key flag is -march=, which will allow the program to make full use of your CPU.
If you really want to go aggressive to compete with icc wich is much more agressive by default try -funroll-loops and -ffast-math.
NSV streaming video is sweet. I've been looking for motnths now for a linux player or framework that supports streamed NSV (not just regular local NSV). I've had no luck with mplayer, xine, and gstreamer
The part I don't understand is 29,000+ people died from cancer last year. Thats almost 10 times as many as died in the WTC but you don't see a "War on Cancer"
The looney left didn't throw the election Gore did. He ignored the youth Demographic and with his previous record of spittinf in out faces (4 letters, PMRC) why would we want to vote for him?
I hate to break it to you but that runtime saftey isn't magic, it's implemented by an unsafe runtime somewhere. In some situations runtime saftey can cause a serious performance hit that at a kernel level will significantly slow the entire system. Safe runtimes are great for high level apps but they aren't a magic bullet.
You made a grammatical error with one of the words, "Brutus" is a second declension noun but -as is a first declenstion ending. Furthermore as Brutus is being addressed directly, the vocative singular ahould be used as opposed to the accusative plural. The form you were reaching for was "Brute" (with a macron over the e)
Only one person testified that they were not allowed to vote, but their inclusion on the list was accurate because of a criminal conviction in the 1950's.
Yet he was convicted of a misdemenor as cited below. Florida's law only bars fellons from voting. Therefore his inclusion on the list was not accurate.
"Wallace McDonald, in 1959, was convicted of a misdemeanor, vagrancy, for falling asleep on a bench in Tampa while he waited for a bus. In 2000, Mr. McDonald received a letter from Ms. Iorio informing him that as an ex-felon, his name had been removed from the rolls. Despite the efforts of his attorney to correct the problem, Mr. Wallace was not allowed to vote."
There is a vast amount of evidence that large numbers of people were denied the right to vote because they had a similar name to that of a known criminal
So how come the US Civil Rights Comission failed to find a single person who was denied to vote on this basis?
Erm did you even read the report? This excerpt from chapter 5 adresses the issue of false positives right here:
DBT Online advised the Division of Elections of the likelihood that a significant number of false positives existed and made recommendations to reduce those numbers, according to Mr. Bruder.[62] He further asserted that DBT Online specifically suggested to state officials that narrow criteria be used in creating the lists, which would lower the false-positive rate, and therefore, minimize errors in the number of names matched.[63] Mr. Bruder testified that the company recommended, for example, that it develop criteria requiring an exact match on the first and middle names. Thus, a Floridian named Deborah Ann would not match with the name Ann Deborah.[64] But the Division of Elections favored more inclusive criteria and chose to "make it go both ways," as Mr. Bruder recalls it.[65] In addition, he pointed out that state officials set parameters that required a 90 percent match in the last name, rather than an exact match.[66] Mr. Bruder insisted that "the state dictated to us that they wanted to go broader, and we did it in the fashion that they requested."[67]

Also note: "thousands of people, many of them black, purged from voter lists because they were erroneously identified as felons. Ion Sancho, supervisor of elections in Leon County, said only 33 of the 690 voters removed from his lists could be confirmed as former convicts. Also taken off the voter rolls were 2,883 people who were convicted of felonies in other states that didn't revoke their civil rights. State officials said they needed to apply for Florida clemency, although civil rights experts said their civil rights should have been guaranteed." -- Coralie Carlson, Associated Press
Judges ande politicians are the real problem, the judges should just be throwing these frivolus suits out of court and the politicians should institute patent reform but the judges are out of touch and the politicians are married to corporate special interests.
"Keith Packard is a champion of the move to open XFree86, and supports Xouvert's efforts in that regard. Keith's project is freedesktop.org, and he's expressed interest in bundling with Xouvert's results."

The problem with the holes is i've been hit while updating the system because there is just so much eratta it takes forever to download and yes this was SP1 and yes it was with a broadband connection

From the portable openssh website: "Normal OpenSSH development produces a very small, secure, and easy to maintain version for the OpenBSD project. The OpenSSH Portability Team takes that pure version and adds portability code so that OpenSSH can run on many other operating systems (Unfortunately, in particular since OpenSSH does authentication, it runs into a *lot* of differences between Unix operating systems)."

I use winamp to play NSV, there are alot of good NSV channels (AOL Music, NTV:WPA, etc.)
should have hit preview...
that's "spitting in our," sorry

Ok, after looking at all the facts it's only 2, my memory must be playing tricks on me.
What's going on with all the exectutive turn over at RH? I can remember like 3 or 4 CEOs in the past few years.
Judges ande politicians are the real problem, the judges should just be throwing these frivolus suits out of court and the politicians should institute patent reform but the judges are out of touch and the politicians are married to corporate special interests.
The thing to remember about NT4 was it was the current OS until 2000.

Even better check mail on a Unix machine. All the professers at my school do that and even the developers of _Win_amp do thier mail from a unix box.

Except winnt (modern windows: NT4, 2000, XP) is based on VMS.

Since when did // mark comments in C?
Since C99
but if linux couldn't be used for anything worthwhile, as they claim, why are they trusting their website to a serving system based off of it?
