No it's not. It's still under development, and there is almost nothing left of the codebase from the original XP when you have patched up an XP install.
Otherwise Linux is TWENTYFOUR YEARS OLD, but you know, writing that in all caps as if it means something just seems silly. Because it is.
And hardly any of the Linux vulnerabilities allow a web client attack, like a whole slew of the Windows ones do. Because Linux does not have a web browser with kernel access. Therefore, the low level vulnerabilities in Linux are not like the low level vulnerabilities you are used to.
A case can possibly be made for lossless, especially for complex music. A fan of Meshuggah can usually tell the difference between lossy compressed and lossless versions of their tracks. However, even a good mp3 compression algorithm at decent bitrate is so good it's very hard to beat chance in an ABX test.
As to 24 bits and any sample rate over 60kHz? Only useful for trying to blow up stereo systems and turning people deaf. The dynamic range of 16 bits alone is more than a healthy, young human can make use of outside the laboratory (or even for the most part inside it) and is much, much higher than that of any music. And if there is magical information hiding above around 20kHz, we simply can't hear it - or see it with any existing measurement tools, which means we can't record it either.
4K downsized to 1080P gives a great more detail, due to downsampling gives a higher detail, due to 1080P using 4 blocks with the same pixel, so 4k downsize, each 4 blocks are have a different pixel, its very noticeable
That downsampling can be done before the pixels are pushed to your TV and will yield the exact same benefits.
I agree it is important to ask questions. But the questions should not be of the strawman form, or asked from a position of apparent and obvious ignorance about not only the subject, but the very study being questioned. There is no added value, and in fact negative value, to ask that kind of questions.
Trying to think laterally about the issue and find other causes for the observed behaviour is completely different from ignorantly spouting off unfounded criticism of test methodology.
If we are talking found and reported vulnerabilities, then yes, Linux has more. Although notably, even grouping together all Linux kernel vulnerabilities regardless of version the number of HIGH vulnerabilities is not higher than the number of HIGH vulnerabilities in Windows 8.1.
Given that you were talking about the industrial revolution, which was ended by 1840, those numbers have nothing at all to do with your claims. The industrial revolution is not the cause of this fall, and even if it figures in to some extent it can not be the major reason as the numbers are from over a century later.
I don't hear those arguments as I do not live in the US. I live in a democracy where the constitution provides the limits of government. Something you claim does not exist.
If I were you I'd demand the money you paid for that so called education back. It evidently has not enabled you to comprehend reality, only to project your wishful thinking on the world.
As a result of these discussions I make certain that people realize that calling this country a "democracy" is in fact part-and-parcel of a straw-man argument.
Except you have no support for this assertion other than bad (even incomprehensible) grammar and personal incredulity.
Of bloody course a democracy and a republic are not the same; the concepts are complementary.
And I live in a democracy, which has a constitution, so your comments about them not having one betrays a complete lack of comprehension of reality. You're off your rockers, or just plain dumb, and either way need to learn a lot more before you spout off about stuff you do not understand again.
I need a small, light laptop with a good display, primarily for writing and coding with the occasional browsing (though I mostly use an iPad for that). I need excellent portability, high resolution, modest cpu, good battery life and ease of docking and use.
When I am on the move, I want as few openings collecting dust as possible. I want no fan sucking dusty air through the machine. In the past I needed USB for memory sticks, but these days that is rare as I send material over email or dropbox instead, or just check it into git. And I don't want to stick a foreign USB stick into my machine. Lack of USB1/2 is a bonus. I also have no need for external screens when on the move.
If I dock it, I want one connector to the laptop which goes to a hub connecting to all my desktop peripherals and power; I have no desire to click in lots of different connectors, power and other stuff. One cable, or a "click in" dock. Not two cables. Absolutely not three cables (power, display, USB). That's just nuts. Why should I need to plug all that cruft in when one cable could do it all? As to keyboard and mouse, those are bluetooth and need no cables.
The Macbook Air is a different model than what I want. It has unnecessary ports I would not use - and worse, no port which can do everything for docking. It has a needless fan sucking dust through the machine, and a low resolution screen, all in the name of getting more cpu power I have no need for. It's not aimed at the same needs. Merging those lines would leave some users out. And yes, my need is not the typical (although it is a lot more common than people on/. seem to realize). A lot of people still believe they need all those ports, even though they can't recall when they last used them. That is why the Macbook Air still exists, and will for a while longer. And yes, this is where Jobs would have simply killed it and told people to deal with it.
I use Displayport for my 2560x1440 screen at home. None of the HDMI ports on any of my devices will output that.
I also use Displayport for my 1920x1200 screen at work, since it's what's on my work laptop and it's a thin, nice cable without any huge chunks on the ends.
No, you do not. Selection does not require a key press, and the middle button does not paste the clipboard. It pastes the selection. If you want to use the clipboard you need ctrl-c (or x) and ctrl-v. The middle mouse button will do nothing with the clipboard.
That is a *horrible* compromise, because what will *cause* an outbreak is compromised herd immunity. And this compromise allows for compromise of herd immunity.
When the outbreak happens, cause by this excemption system, the damage is already done and children are probably already dying. And worse, this lets the disease get a foothold and provides it with a breeding ground to mutate from, which allows it to improve its ability to overcome vaccination.
There is NOTHING good about this "compromise". It's horrible. The only way to conclude it is anything but atrocious is to be completely clueless about how disease and vaccinations work.
And if you no-one around you had the vaccine you'd be dead now, since that means you're very sensitive to pertussis.
Adjuvants are an excellent tool. What about them do you want us to look at? How well they do their job?
Doctors get MORE money from letting you and all the kids around you get pertussis and treat it. Lots more. We're talking magnitudes here. Vaccines are a horribly bad deal from a business perspective; there is a lot more money in letting people get sick. So much more that a comparison is nuts. Trying to argue doctors provide vaccinations to pad their wallets is a complete and utter disconnect from any scientific evidence and reality.
No scientific objections here, just pure ignorance and prejudice.
Europe. Right. Because this is what happens in each and every European country. For example the ones that see broadband as a basic human right. They're thinking in another era too.
Of course, that era is ahead of the US, but the point still holds, right?
Actually the computer was invented in Germany, and my CPU was developed in Israel. Most of the rest of the parts were developed and manufactured in Asia.
In fact, I can't find a single component in my computer which is from the US. Nor in my network solution, or the network of my house.
But that isn't the comparison. It's dropping usage by 99% *period*, and increasing the paid portion of the *remaining* use by 10%. Because that is what happens if your game isn't already in a hit series, with very few exceptions.
Plus. games which have a Minecraft model just keep selling. At GoG you can buy games which were made over 20 years ago, and they still sell. Very few games which charge by server use keep selling.
So you are taking as reference a bad implementation of a mass transit system and from that interpolating that even the mass transit systems which work can not work, because yours doesn't.
You have a future as a GOP representative. Don't try your hand at science though.
This is why we at one time had Lisp Machines with specialized hardware optimized for running Lisp efficiently. Message based machines were tried for Smalltalk.
But people do not use these kinds of languages enough. Operating systems and applications are largely written in C and its derivatives. That is why processors optimized for C won out.
So yes, it is in a way a vicious circle. Most of our software is C, so most of our hardware is optimized for C, so writing software in C makes the most efficient use of it.
So to answer how systemd KNOWS that apache actually has started and is serving pages you enter into a page long rant about how init will get SIGCHILD when a process dies.

How many vulnerabilities is there in Ubuntu 6?
39 total vulnerabilities, 7 high severity, 27 medium severity, 5 low severity.

Couldn't find that. It's in NVD though, if you're really interested.

But then, it's a lot easier to get fewer vulnerabilities when dropping support for one of the most used OS'es on the planet. Although XP is only on about 14% of all PC's now, it appears. And now support for Windows 8.1 is dropped as well. That seems to be the way Microsoft keeps vulnerabilities in supported systems down; by simply dumping older OS'es.
Given that you were talking about the industrial revolution, which was ended by 1840, those numbers have nothing at all to do with your claims. The industrial revolution is not the cause of this fall, and even if it figures in to some extent it can not be the major reason as the numbers are from over a century later.
So no data, only anecdotes. Where did your 5% figure come from?
I don't hear those arguments as I do not live in the US. I live in a democracy where the constitution provides the limits of government. Something you claim does not exist.

Seriously. Really needed. Your arguments are extremely controversial. Who told you this?

You will find that your napkin estimates are incorrect. A truck will do up to thousands of times more damage to the roads than cars.
