If you use LAME to encode your MP3s and play them on a supporting player, you can get gapless. Foobar2000 and Rockbox, at least, support LAME's gapless playback headers.
Recent development versions (1.1.8 and 1.1.9) had some improvements to memory management. Do you know if there still is "quite a big" amount of overhead?
Sure, they probably would do that. But what if it was a passage from the Bible which offended Christians? Do you think they would've recalled the game then?
Make sure you have.NET 3.5, then use this version of MPC with the EVR Custom Presenter and D3D Fullscreen mode. Works like a charm on everything I've tried. I can even play 720p video almost perfectly on my old Pentium-M 1.6 GHz with an i915 video chip.
You have it quite wrong. CrossOver, being based on the LGPL Wine, is also GPL. The full source code is freely available, just like the Wine source. Most of the code for Crossover gets rolled back into Wine.
However, there are several hacks in CrossOver, done to get things working. These hacks are not rolled into Wine, the biggest reason being the fear that, because something works "well enough", nobody will bother to fix it the right way, and cruft will build up in the tree.
Nothing is stopping you from taking the hacks from the CrossOver tree and adding them to the Wine tree. And, in fact, git makes it fairly easy for people to maintain their own forks of Wine which contain third-party patches - for example, check out the "forks" section at the bottom of http://repo.or.cz/w/wine.git.
So? Use a threaded mail display. The one in Thunderbird works quite nicely.
I hate having to scroll down through old text to find the latest bit. I always top-post in my email, unless I'm replying to a complicated message, where it might make more sense to intersperse bits of my reply in with the message I'm replying to.
Beta 4 only scored 68 / 100, so they have made some core changes. They fixed tests 42, 67, and 69.
In addition, the test seems to run about 40% faster in B5 vs. B4, at least on my PC.
... malloc has to store the size somewhere too, ya know. Free doesn't just magically know how much memory to free.
Also, the other major difference between new and malloc is that new will call the default constructor on every object in the array, while malloc will not.
Except a lot of N64 games only ran at 20 or 30 FPS, to begin with. F-Zero is the only one I can think of that ran at 60, although I believe there were a few more. So, 20 FPS probably isn't missing much.
"Do you know long it would take to download a 700MB file from Rapidshare? There is a limitation of 100MB per file and 1 file per 90 minutes. It would take over 10 hours! With bitorrent you can get it in less than 30 minutes. It does not make sense for illegal content at all. "
10 hours? With my Rapidshare premium account, it would take about 15 minutes.
I'll see your Hiren's and raise you miniPE XT. It's basically a tricked-out BartPE disc, which is at least as useful as Hiren's BootCD.
And, of course, I carry around a Knoppix disc, as well.
It's because CSS is stupid.

No, seriously. I know it must be heresy to say it on here, but, even without throwing IE into the picture, CSS caused me enough headaches to get out of web development. I mean, geez, you can do fancy things, but when the things that are no-brainers with tables take an entire afternoon to do with CSS, you have to stop and wonder what the guys who came up with it were on.
CSS 3 looks like it might finally be sane, but you know CSS 3-supporting browsers won't be widely for years and years. I don't blame people for sticking with tables.
I've heard that one of the benefits of moving to Cairo in FF 3 is that it FF will finally have real page zoom. I can't remember where I heard this, but I sure hope it's true.
Yeah, it will be interesting to see what stance Google takes on infringing content... I don't think it's possible to clean up YouTube without killing a large portion of its appeal.

Heh.:)
"In all of the above it is quite obvious what is happening."
I would argue not, but, then, I'm used to working with pointers, and like having syntactical reminders of when I'm working with references. I'm also not such a big fan of garbage collection. Having to debug memleaks where pointers get passed everywhere can be nasty, but it forces you to think carefully about your design.

areal, as in "not real".
Recent versions of VLC can indeed play pretty much every Quicktime .mov there is.

Isn't this the thing that forced the redesign of Greasemonkey a while back?
Clearly, Google wins.

ISA, as in "Instruction Set Architecture". Not the bus.
At first, I thought this was about Intel's new quad-core processors. How wrong I was. :P
Wouldn't it be cool, though, if Intel did name the quad-core chips the 4004 series?
And slipstream this, too: RyanVM's Windows XP Post-SP2 Update Pack. It'll take care of most of those updates left. Makes life a hell fo a lot easier.

Is this the same Mike Melanson who contributes to ffmpeg and runs multimedia.cx?
