Use `fix' to make changes to your program given. `fix' recompiles
modified source files and dynamically links the modified functions into
the application.
It is actually possible for, say, an electron to move in water faster than light moves in water. In addition, speed of light in water depends on the wavelength. It's hard to tell what happens with the speed of gravity.
bandwidth. If all customers of your bank were to close their accounts and withdraw all the money this Monday, your bank would collapse too. This is pretty normal. If you want guaranteed 1.5Mb/sec no matter what, you will soon discover that it costs a lot more than your cable subscription.
fork() is a context switch, but so is pthread_create(), unless you have green threads which sux0r.
Yes, switching between different processes is usually slower than between threads in the same process. If this is your concern, you probably better off having exactly one thread/process per CPU.
Mutex lock is an excellent protection against deadlocks (you need to use it with shared memory anyway), but it's less useful against plain old fashioned core dumps.
You share just what you need to share , and keep everything else private. With threads all memory is common. Didn't they teach you to use protection, or something?
If you want people to convert, don't take their tools away. Simply don't do that. Make sure they can run all their favourite apps, then show them better apps, different apps, different concepts, whatever.
Can it run MS Office? No, but...
Thanks, not interested.
I love Unix. For what I do it's an excellent tool. I'm just trying to say that Unix isn't going to have any kind of success on the desktop. Unless it does Windows, of course.
High-end cameras can use eye-tracking to decide
which part of the picture to focus on. You look
in the viewfinder and concentrate on a particular spot, and that spot gets focus.
And here's something to think about. Every single photographer I know about switches this feature off after first five minutes of use. --

How "stop modify variable" command works in dbx?
What's so special about that Eclipse thingy if it can't even do conditional breakpoints?

To buy such sensor you'll probably have to mortgage your home and sell your family to slavery, but still.
I wonder how your CRT works, then. Electrons hitting phosphors at 2 meters per hour? This is bright.

Oops... wrong forum.

are advertisers. OK, so they did't come up with textads themselves, who cares, they accept and use this format.
I've seen sites that say "you're blocking my ads, now go away, thieving bastard".
Sure they did come up with smaller ad formats. Ever heard about google?

"I like linux" and "Linux is/will be a success" are two very different propositions. Neither one implies anything about the other.
Because it would be better than Windows, then. It would do everything Windows can, and much more. Plus, it's free.
just don't claim that it will be unsuccessful because it won't run windows apps.
Why shouldn't I claim that, if it's true?

As for photoshop/gimp, don't even start.
You also conveniently forgot about drivers. How many graphic cards have 3D hardware acceleration under Linux? What about Winmodems?
Drivers. Apps. Games.
Because, you see, that was a rethorical question.
And also Solaris and IRIX and HP-UX and AIX. Do I need to define "success" for you?
when Earth is hit by a major asteroid, or something.
It is the problem.
when it will be able to run most Windows applications and use Windows drivers. Discuss.
