I'm too lazy to actually figure out exactly what's happening, but that's most likely correct. The volatile keyword prevents the compiler from doing things like moving values into registers, and the patch mentions that it is a problem with the FPU. I'm guessing that there's some sort of approximation algorithm happening, which stops when the error is sufficiently low. If that value got moved to something with different precision, it could stop converging.
C purists will say that you can look at code and tell exactly what assembler output it will result in, but that's a ridiculous claim on any sort of optimizing compiler--a whole lot of stuff you didn't specify goes on.
So the earth being created in 144 hours is clearly ridiculous, but an omnipotent being that creates a species for the sole purpose of being lords of all they survey, finds them wanting and so creates a member of that race and imbues it with one aspect of his being in order that the species can savagely and unjustly kill him, so that he can forgive that species, that's not ridiculous? Or is everything ridiculous, just not the omnipotent being thing?
I'd be mad at you for being such a douche, but the fact that a sperglord such as yourself is a creepy anime failure that apparently hates the trash he's forced to ride shoulder-to-shoulder with so much that he can't even stand to hear them talk just makes me feel sorry for you.
If part of the game is 80ms of display lag, I don't really think of it as missing out, I think of it as an efficient way to decide where I can save my money. The 35ms of lag I get from my monitors (research before you buy, kids) is enough to make even the slightest additional lag from the computer extremely annoying, and an FPS basically unplayable.
You realize that "cloud" is a marketing term that means even less than "Web 2.0", right? I think you mean "internet access", or maybe even "Internet access" given your UID.
That hasn't been true since SNI, which is supported in Apache 2.2, Firefox 2.0, IE 7, Opera 8, and Safari 3.2.1. Probably Chrome too, but I'm too lazy to look that up.
Oh yeah, that's what I meant, although I don't like the right-aligned thing, I like:
SELECT t1.field1 AS mutton, t2.field3 AS rectally, COALESCE(to1.field2, 'Brinkmanship') AS dogma, CASE to1.field3 WHEN 'U' THEN 'Uptown' WHEN 'F' THEN 'Frankfurter' ELSE 'Han Solo' END AS sherpa FROM table1 t1 JOIN table2 t2 ON t2.pkey = t1.fkey_t2 LEFT JOIN tableOther to1 ON to1.pkey = t1.fkey_to1 WHERE t1.field3 = 7 AND t2.field2 = 'doggie' AND to1.field4 = 'B' OR to1.field4 IS NULL ;
The above is my attempt to bring semantic tabs and columns together in a beautiful symphony of readability. It's okay if you hate it--everyone does (even though it's perfect!) and I never get to use it at work:(
Unless Apple specifically bothered all their users by asking them the question, the percentage of people who would take the trouble to find the option and then answer yes to it is small enough that it probably wouldn't be worth it even to the magazine publishers. And I don't want to be bothered with the option, so if Apple did start asking, and somebody else didn't, for an otherwise equal service I'd go to the one that didn't even ask the question.
Fuck the magazines and their business model. They've already proven themselves un-trustworthy with personal data, and now they're clearly desperate, which would make me careful with someone who was previously trustworthy. If they can't get themselves back on an even ground without selling their customers' CC info, maybe it's their time to die.
And when said psychopathic asshole is or was hired by Kim-Jong Il? This isn't about a (comparatively) well-behaved US business--these are people dealing with lunatics who have never had to emotionally progress beyond being a teenager at best, and if their finger isn't on the trigger, they have the ear of those whose are, and they're just as crazy and touchy--tell them their diplomat is an asshole, flip a coin and see which way the wind is blowing--maybe they'll behead the diplomat, maybe they'll shell a bordering village.
Well, for every one of you, there's one of me, and I will happily pay them to keep my private data private.
Maybe the reason that the "portal" or "middleman" business model has failed so often on the Internet is that they've failed to do their jobs. Apple, in this case, seems to be doing it--they make it easier to find what I want, shield me from what I don't want, and otherwise get out of the way. I'm happy to pay the premium.
So what do you do when dealing with a psychopathic asshole of a diplomat, who upon hearing that you think that of him will refuse to work with you or anyone associated with you?
I'm wondering exactly how they posed the question--because I'm not scared of death in the slightest, but I'm scared as fuck of dying. I have a feeling that won't be pleasant unless I'm very lucky.
That said, regardless of how I get there I'd pick consciousness over oblivion any day.

Weird, it's surprisingly fast on my work computer (terrible graphics card, I think a GeForce 7200) and almost instant to load.

Said patent troll can only sue people who use ideas expressed in the patent.
Ahahahahahahahaha... *wipes tear* man, that was a good one.

Ugh, I hate non-caps SQL.
Not for any real reason... it just doesn't look like SQL.
Slightly creepy? That thing gave me nightmares.
For the love of god, give it a fucking head.
Given the amount of RAM installed in standard computers today, what's a couple billion bits between friends?

I love how you call them dumb for falling for the simplistic and easily defended against trick that you imagined them falling for.
