The NT kernel is really nice and well designed. No, really. 256 levels for priority, pascal style strings so no buffer overruns and can handle zero. Security level rings (until GDI got shoved in, for speed reasons). The top level UI is kinda meh. And in between MFC/Win32/Win64/.NET/OLE/ATL/ETC. So imagine a sandwich, organic rye bread on the bottom, economy white bread on top and a thick paste of sludge from the sewage works at Fukushima in the middle.
Do you really think that today's GPUs, which can render incredibly-detailed 3D scenes in video games 60-100 times per second, REALLY have trouble with a simple Gradient Fill that's been written by Microsoft?
(Speaking for myself, I was a die-hard Firefox user for years, but switched to Chrome when Firefox's memory leaks kept getting worse and worse... with Chrome, I can "kill" a resource-hogging tab without killing my whole browser. I know what Google "charges" for Chrome (privacy) and it's a price I'm willing to pay.)
Exactly my experience, but with the addition of the Firefox devs basically telling me my memory leak problems were me "browsing it wrong".
The trouble with PHP is that the barrier to entry is so low that I've had to support production sites written by code monkeys that didn't understand the for loop.
Yeah, they've been working on the firefox memory leaks for about two years now. But they've been a problem for about ten years now. And six years of that was finger pointing at the users, which is why it still thrashes like a dying whale.
So if I study the spectrogram of a star for an hour, I can't make valid predictions about what it'll do for the next few minutes, because it's been in existance for billions of years???
I was thinking of things like the olinuxino which is cheaper than a Pi and seemed to be building a fanbase when a change from mailing list to web forum chilled the community. Or the Beagle Bone which is more open and technically superior, but has a nasty habit of throwing up problems no one else seems to have ever seen (according to google, that is). Or the Fox G20 which is a nice board and seems to have a good community, but isn't generally well known since the bulk of the community round it is still Italian.
It's not the thing that matters. There are faster, cheaper boards than the Pi. But the community, with examples and workarounds so that the changes are you don't have to beat a path, but just hit google.

No it shouldn't. FTFY 20.4microfurlongs
They're either grossly inept, or knew damned well what they were doing.
NB, these options are not mutually exclusive.
I'm playing around with viewing OSM data. I like the MarbleWidget. (And despite the KDE link, it only needs Qt, not the whole KDE Stack.)
How will this impact BroadBand HamNet (formerly HSMM) which mainly targets Ubiquiti hardware, and obsolete Linksys stuff?

I swear, eyebrows grow back bushier than ever.

22percent of PHP installs are secure???
So, this'll get rushed through by February, at the latest.
Ah yes, because the North Koreans have a history of being so honest and forthright?
Moreso than the americunts.
There was a young lady named Bright,
Who could travel, faster than light.
She went out one day,
In a relative way,
And returned the previous night.
And what 4G phones are fully waterproof? This is Scotland we're talking about.

There's Quercus a java implementation of PHP. Saw it, bookmarked it, never done anything with it.
We need a war on war.
But things have gotten better since then.
ROTFLMAO

I suggest you use tmux ^BD
To dumb to google? USA! Number 24!
Anyone got an "Idiots Guide to Making Antibiotics with Common Homebrew Equipment" pdf they can point me to???

I ran the optimizer on itself and now I've got /dev/null.c
