Surely Adobe could make the GUI in carbon, but place the processing stuff in cocoa libs and have some interaction via ipc/tcp or something.... like a CS4-daemon or something.
Then again, why cannot apple just release carbon source code, then it could be ported to win32/linux, or is carbon really how win32 itunes is made? I did hear that QT for windows basically contains 90% of carbon apis in it as wrappers.
So why not falsely accuse everysingle police force member, and all politicians, and all JPs and Judges and CEOS, then that will make enough of a dent to fix the laws. Better yet, just do it to all stock brokers & sub prime lenders;)
Id like to see a software version of this trick used on real 24bit displays, ie. make a true 30bit RGB TIFF, or 48bit HDR TIFF.
So your code just has to generate 4 seperate internal memory bitmaps, and cycle through them in sequence, if your LCD is set to 75hz then it might just work, 100hz perhaps.
Sounds like a great trick. I feel like coding up a 30bit display test pattern.
Anyone done this already?? Im going to google this up, sounds like a great thing to write for summer of code thing.
In 1992 we have complete large word processors, databases, and 3d rendering packages under 4megs of ram. Know how to write good code, or do you just depend on the api/OS for all stuff like a lazy govt employee, yes you must do more your self, but you then can have control and limit the ram usage, and do things smartly, and not use 16k of ram for just one 80char string input query.
Just port the xbox OS (runs on 64m ram) to 400mhz ARM and bingo that would be a decent platform.
Or even port BEOS to a 4meg ram platform.
Today most knowledge is in the API, so all those cool ones running in 4meg ram are dead, like Amiga. Even tho an amiga on 64 meg ram on a phone would rock.
Yeah programmers get lazier, and its all up to the hardware engineers to make their code run fast for a $9 chip.
So if a 1gig ram chip is so cheap, common apple, give all iphones 1gig ram to work with. Dont be a cheap ass.
A chineese dinner for 3 with beer would cost more than an iphone.
In australia it was a grand, until the dollar went up and it looked like utter price gouging, so now its a better $700, but still way too much, it should be $500au if sony wants to kill MS's shit box that should be $350au.
Seriously, all these despots lame fwits commy pinkos are nothing more than derranged small dicked psychopath clinicly sick bipolar schizos that need meds.
Other than that, they are marginally smarter than discovery watching 5 year old.
3 Cheers with vodka for Stalins death btw.
And who ever said drugs are bad, drugs would have solved all the problems, coz everyone would be high and happy.
Why not just get a faster computer, 2ghz should do rather than some shit 200mhz crap with RTOS, you can get any 2ghz PC for peanuts these days.
Theres few things that need ultra accuracy, unless they are dependent on law of physics like water pumps or flight guidance systems. But through enough cpu power in and it can be closer to RTOS than an expensive RTOS system I personally think.
Any NON RTOS system can be made to be close to RTOS if you code your stuff smartly to be aware of time and make sure it doesnt use too much. I mean any one can benchmark array copies/sorts/inserts and then determine ahead of time if X operation will take more than 100ms. Oh yeah a little more work, but its just one cost.
Btw, if their IDE's are that bad, then it doesnt say much about their OS really... because if they had a clue, they would leverage Eclipse or even plugin to VS.
TEchnically even Amigas were RTOS, since you could hardware wise gurantee interrupts to be triggered.
Why not make a standard PC gaming spec. A small factor PC, $250. 1.6ghz dual core min 512mb min Run of dvd or HD, storage is flexible. All controllers USB/Bt, not an issue, comms is wifi Graphics... well there arent 100s of choices, its only two, ATI or NVidia. OpenGL is enough or DX.
It can hardly be trivial to use a $40 cpu $40 mb + $99 video card with $20 ram.
1) CS2 works fine, who needs another expensive update with no benefit. 2) porn sites do that,but thats whats firefox is for. 3) Why did you buy a Toshiba laptop dude 4) You seriously use MS File Explorer? Use 2xPlorer or Synctoy dude. 5) FIIK 6) Turn that OREO off. 7) OSX is just as bad really...
You make sure to code in that fuction or build, if date > builddate+20days exit(0);
Duh....
Still, the guy can proove it by posting that particular sources files history, it doesnt have to be the whole program, but if its just ONE.cpp file or.cs file , then post the damn history of it to proove it. Im sure theres no super elite IP in it, get of your ego high horse, post the source, unless its real shitty written.
Its gota be harder to write crap C# code, since its easy to write bad c++ code if your lazy.
Yeah good for phones, crap on desktops if you have real big desktops 1920 wide or 3 screens, i prefer localized menus, and hate to drag all the way to the top to see the menu, its crap.
you go spew out, windows sucks, it nearly lost my food supply the other day, and linux saved me, the little toy rover linux box fixed it all. And how you're so glad you brang with you those 8tb of music mp3s and movies with you, hahah and the riaa cannot touch you hahaah, you could be such a bad ass , what can the do.
In reality, red mars will be there colonized by red china, and they could do it, with 10 new people a year, who cares if they die, GDP/1.3billion makes life cheap, or at least cost a few mill, which is only a few swimming pools of oil, or a truck load of iPods.
Is it that hard to seek to frame offset at 1% and if its not 90% white or black use the thumbnail. How about some time based smart code that says If this operation is taking >200ms, fricking give up and pick a random frame 2% to 5% in thats a keyframe. Friggin store it in filename_thmb.png or something or cache it.
Sounds like too many OO layers with out any smarts of knowing what the user is doing, just lots of automatic operations that assume will happen in 0ms.
They can afford to make it free for ALL usage except corporate PCs. So they loose 2-4 billion in sales, they save 1billion in advertising & boxes & cds & activation infrastructure.
Distribution is easy, cost is only $1 for a dvd in every bloody PC mag in existance, every 3 months with included patches.
I blame business analysts looking to create money for corporations based on their studies from college, but zero experience in the internet, since they just recently logged in after studying for years on end.
Managers for thinking they can hire 6 figure BA's to make more money.
Whatever happened to just making a great product, no masters degree needed there. No 20 mill marketing campaigns needed either.
At this given rate, I bet 99% of all xbox1s will be alive and well in 2015, even though far out of date, they might still be usefull for some, but still WORKING, when all 360s will probably die by then.
Maybe thats MS idea along, built in planned obsolescence through product self death like cloths. Genius!!

The best IDs were invented pre war days with IBMs help etc.... using census info and guess what the nazis used that data for'?
Yes... persecution.

Atlantis is not an island that sank, its USA that will sink, its a prediction of the future.
Blame it on all the old farts in charge who grew up as smeg head stuck up know it alls.
Asia knows the future, less govt, 10% taxes, no capitol gains tax, let people do their thing, less expenses taking care of loosers.
Sack 90% of the govt, they deserve unemployment because they do not benefit mankind.

I bet you running a real old PC 300mhz box in a low res screen 320x240 with win2000 or directx will have faster performance.
Any slowness is due to 50 layers of api calls/stack pushes, none direct frame buffers and probably slow REAL ram speed (not flash ram speed)
Sure the iphone has 8gig (RAM) but thats storage, not DRAM, if they put in 1gig DDR ram in there it would fly, but fast ram uses OODLES of power.
In 1992 we have complete large word processors, databases, and 3d rendering packages under 4megs of ram.

Even old mac os classic let any one write apps, why is jobs so scare, he should know of all people, let it be like DOS and it shall be king.
What a frickin lsd hippie old wanker!!! blinded by his ego!, take some more LSD steve, and learn the old ways before your an old man in a wheel chair.

Download it from PB, that will teach the IOC. No money for them!
A better effort would be not not buy anything from there, but only taiwan. Common apple, make a Communist Free iPod in Red/white/blue.
And what did jailing said persons achieve?

The govts of many nations are worse than 1000 tony sopranos.
National security is a secret code for 'govt cronie security of their assets.
Porn should be positive, only it makes politicians look even more ugly.
Id say make a new rule, the govt parliament must be naked at all times, so ugly old fat shits arent voted in.

Ghet yaaa asss to Marzzz
Note to slash re gotchas, use a random fish tank background, not squiggles..
No QA contracter reported this as a bug because it meant more cash in their wallets each time testing.
Common MS coders, get a clue, store a sig for the first 10meg at least, so if that FAILS, the whole stupid ass thing will too.
Note to MS, hire people with a clue, or that at least used computers before 1990, not these post ps2 gameboy jocks.
