Unless Sweden have changed the statue of limitation of rape he will soon be able to leave his "prison" (he can exit if he want to) and then be able to again visit Sweden or other countries without any problem.
The two victims never aimed for the rape charges BTW, in Sweden police have to act if they are made aware of a crime and waking up being fucked without giving permission (it's apparently a fetish for some) is rape. Realizing the rapist doesn't use a condom even though it was agreed upon is sexual misconduct and possibly causing of bodily harm if the rapist have any STDs.
So the victims wanted Mr. ASSange tested and went to the police to ensure that testing was done, they then mentioned the circumstances and the rape charges was ensured. The problem was willingly caused by Assange and could easily be solved by Assange (he could man up and take responsibility instead of making up bullshit).
Not even if they were distributing GPL software would they need to do that (they would need to provide some kind of access to sources though) however they don't so...
Those machines aren't using Apple software nor hardware. They aren't generally connected to the Internet (I guess that's what was meant by grid?) and if they do they have extensive firewalls ensuring that the core functionality is always available.
I take it you never used Unix type systems lately? Because that philosophy isn't actually used at all - everything from kernel to drivers to commands (etc.) do much more than one thing.
If that philosophy would actually be used we'd have a microkernel system.
Doing a rewrite would be stupid because it wouldn't provide any additional value? If anything it would generate something with less value as the number of bugs caught in testing/use would be less than the stable operating system.
And there's nothing preventing a programmer from doing it in a buggy way or accidentally forget to insert checking code. Programmers are humans, humans make errors.
While memory checking isn't free the impact in use may surprise you - compile time optimization can remove most checks.
Pretty sure MS-DOS 5.0 was rock-solid enough. It only faltered because things running under it had bugs that overwrote random bits - the kernel itself would be stable.
MS-DOS wasn't an operating system, it was a program loader. Things "running under it" had free reign to do absolutely anything they wanted. There was no memory protection, programs could even replace hardware ISRs. Even if there were no bugs in MS-DOS, it could not be used to safely run programs that weren't themselves guaranteed safe... which means that no one even bothered to worry about whether or not there were security bugs in MS-DOS. The question makes no sense.
You should seek a refund for your operating systems course as you are 100% wrong. Operating system doesn't imply protection (that is a feature and not a defining characteristic). MSDOS provided disk management, device management, memory allocation etc. and is obviously more than a program loader given that the OS continued to run and provided runtime services to programs. Thinking that operating system equals protection leads to such ludicrous ideas that Amiga OS wasn't multi-tasking and removes a lot of significant operating systems from computing history...
Human languages aren't simple pattern matching thingies as you seem to believe. Principally flawed is parsed as something that is using a flawed principle, a substitution could be simply "flawed" however that could be interpreted as claiming the OP have some actual problem with his thinking. By instead inserting "principally" out AC points out that he thinks it is the principle that is at fault and following that principle leads the OP to the wrong conclusion.
But by all means continue posting irrelevant crap instead of actually using the insides of your head, your thinking skills are obviously flawed.
Hello clueless idiot. No, the FDA isn't the problem as anyone that actually looked into this would know. Generics are available as the drug is available, other types of auto-injectors are available and *shock* there are even auto-injectors with the drug in question available!
The problems are elsewhere like Mylan actively hindering places (schools++) that need to stock auto-injectors to use a competitor product, the FDA have nothing to do with that.
We at one end have a pair of analog transducers optimized to play audio. On the other end we have a computer generating a digital stream representing an analog audio stream (as humans have analog hearing devices).
In between those endpoints we need a DAC (digital to analog converter) and an amplifier capable of driving the transducers over the headphone cable. Those two devices may be combined into one chip or even into one circuit (not common).
Now we introduce a dongle. It could be passive (we still have a DAC and amplifier in the phone and just route it through the dongle to the headphones), semi-passive (we have an active device that communicates with the phone for e.g. licencing purposes but doesn't touch the audio itself) or active (the dongle contains the DAC and amplifier). The passive and semi-passive only saves the 3.5mm connector itself as the phone still need to contain audio components, the active will consume power from the phone to power the audio circuitry and potential overheads.
Now realize that DAC/amplifiers can be combined so that they can drive the internal earphone and speaker transducers optionally routing the signal to headphones. It may not be the best solution but we still have those transducers with the associated drive circuitry onboard the phone, sure they can produce a worse signal quality than sensitive headphones require. However co-locating a hi-fi DAC (normally powered down) and one or two lower quality DACs for the internal transducers on one chip is not only possible - it is already done.
Power saving can only come from more efficient audio circuitry. I think it is more likely that Apple can co-operate with an audio chip manufacturer to device a low power high quality solution than it is for a headphone/headset manufacturer to do it.
TL;DR best case saving is the space of a 3.5mm jack inside the phone. Power usage can only improve if an external DAC/amplifier are more efficient, something that often means producing worse output quality.
How many errors did you pack in there? >5 at least (stopped counting). So why should anyone trust anything you say/write when you can't even do a basic level of fact checking?
The problem is that you are (almost) alone in having a reasonable definition of SJW, just look what "anti-SJW" people claim to be outrageous and realize that anti-female (anti-homosexual, anti-transsexual, anti-male (that aren't as bigoted as themselves) etc.) bigots are much more common than reasonable people using SJW.
SJW is hijacked by assholes and most reasonable people assume people using SJW are assholes - I'd use some other description.
The stack grown either upwards or downwards depending on the architecture. Both have advantages and disadvantages but in no way is it comparable with the null problem.
Because it is pornographic material for some? There are other types of pornography that are abusive, still referred to as pornography even though the vast majority of people would be sick looking at it...
You have never done support I see. Hint: you are so fucking wrong - people do things they have no fucking idea what it'll do with their system just because they are "so good" with computers. Low level formatting because (insert reason) and then complain their system doesn't load? Forcing an expansion card or memory stick into some place it shouldn't go? Flashing a new BIOS that is intended for another motherboard (requires forcing the process as checksums etc. doesn't match)?
Users do stupid things all the time, locking down options are a good way to reduce support costs.
User: Oh, there's an option in my BIOS* that does something *change* - Now my desktop doesn't load on my HDD, DAMN Lenovo is crap - *uses another computer to spam the world that Lenovo are crooks selling crap*.
AKA reducing support costs and complaints by not exposing things normal users shouldn't change.
There are plenty of fun games out there, it is obvious that you (as the AC below points out) "grown old" and just like to reminisce how the good old days were and how everything now is crap (despite not trying to find the good games available). Yes there are some trends that are irritating if one just want to game - forced tutorials are my favorite hate object - and adding things that seriously impacts immersion* (buy stuff for real money etc.). But are those things really so bad that it removes the fun from games? I think not.
(* Deus Ex Mankind divided have a lot of such things, triangle codes? Bullshit. And the ending was a real anti-climax at least for me. I have never really liked the "hero" either - But it still is a good, fun game!)
They are (generally) bulkier than the equivalent USB stick. My level 2 backup is in a modified SD-card reader (removed casing, desoldered the micro-SD slot and added another full-size slot) and while it have performed nicely with two large no-name high-speed SDXC cards it still needs some care while handling. The cards can sometimes be disconnected, the lack of a (bulky) plastic case means there are less protection if the device would be dropped etc. And it is still pretty bulky.
Not replying to you, the post isn't worth it and you are posting as an AC - but replying to those idiots that moderated you.
This have nothing to do with social justice, this is an example of hyped stuff that failed. There have been many other examples of this including some in the computer field _but_ in no case have the gender of the CEO been of interest and no hoard of idiots have constructed conspiracy theories involving social justice and/or men's right movements. Because that would be proof of mental problems.
This case isn't any different. Technology that would be revolutionary? Check. Someone skilled in communication pushing the technology? Check. Creator have the right contacts to ensure initial support/money? Check. The right stuff at the right time? Well, sort of - improvements on these kinds of tests are always wanted.
TL;DR shove that SJW crap up your asses then maybe, just maybe, nobody will know that you are conspiracy nuts.

That sounds weird - a crash shouldn't do that?

Better performance, lower overheads, better integration between Windows and Ubuntu etc.
