Of course your modern day super computers can handle a web
server. OTOH, it's only recently that web server technology has
filtered down to the humble computers that people can actually afford to
buy.
(Check the link, yes it's a C=64...) I guess the poor machine will be
slashdotted to hell even though this is a late entry in an old thread.
So, a short summary:
c64.cc65.org is a web server hosted on a
C=64 connected by SLIP through a serial cartidge to a Linux computer
(which in its turn is connected through ADSL). The IPstack and all
processing is on the C=64. The C=64 has not been expanded in any way,
save for the IO cartridge (SwiftLink 38400bps serial).
The page is small, but there is a few images on it... The server
was created by Adam Dunkels as a part of his uIP TCP/IP stack for the C=64.
Yadda, yadda...
Because they don't understand, on the fundamental level that Americans do, what a FREE market is, and what it does for the people who succeed in it.
Hmmm.... It makes them into egomaniacal
bow-before-my-might-puny-mortals, all-your-base-are-belong-to-us
billionears like Bill
Gates;-) ?
Oh, and lets not forget what a FREE market does to those that
don't succeed so well in it... The USA has one of the largest
precentages of homeless of the first world countries.
Unfortunately I don't know the proper name for it. I DO know the name
of the remedy, though: "Anisotropic texture filtering". It's all about
polygons at an acute angle away from/towards the screen.
Normal mip-mapping will select a texture resolution compatible with
the center point of the polygon, but if the polygon 'tilts to much'
in/out of the screen, the extreme points (the remote one at any rate!)
will get a mip-mapping level unsuitable to the true resolution need at
this distance.
Bring in anisotropic texure filtering, that attempts to do
smoothings-corrections based upon true distance...
Or whatever:-) This is just my best understanding:-)
Yeah, yeah, mister copyright breaking movie quoter...
That sounded stupid even in The Matrix, which has to be the most
stupid movie ever made. Perhaps you where just trying to make an
intelligent, humoristic remark, I can't tell. I just think you're an
idiot.
Wait... Hey! That's a great idea! Let's take endangered spieces from
Africa, India and Australia, import them into a
reserve on neutral territory - say South America - and let them duke
it out!
Animal Survivor: Evolution is Not for Sissies!
Or whatever...
