Each tab is isolated from the others, so if one tab crashes, the entire browser doesn't go down. You can then restore the crashed tab, and when you do, it reloads with the information that had been in it when it crashed, such as a partially written e-mail. And if you were watching a video, the video will start playing at the point the tab crashed, not at the beginning of the video.
so to run the video from the point where it was, the browser has to know, what position that would be. afaik adobe flash, quicktime, realplayer, java etc. don't interact with external software very much... so the interface, that is necessary for this feature, is giving silverlight and windows mediaplayer a headstart?
hey, thats around 1.37 infected linux machines per day... i feel so ridiculous now, that i mocked the far over 35,000 infected windows machines per day... okay, there are more windows machines - say 1% linux, 90% windows, so if linux was as spread as windows, it would have been 123.3 infections per day - making windows JUST 283 times less secure than linux...
ZOMFG!!!
a linux virus infected 3500 machines 7 years ago!?
man, you put me to silence about win-vs-linux security!
I will instantly stop mocking windows for the dozens of botnets that spawn every day and have several hundred million PCs infected so far and infect tens of thousands of PCs every day...
"yes, we know the newest windows version is crap - but we listened to our customers and now we know what we did wrong and the next version will be great!"
how often have we heard this? are people really THAT stupid to believe the same shit over and over again?
"well I assume I can wait 2 years and pay 270$ for the next windows version to end my agony - at least thats better than getting used to a different OS..."
sometimes I just want to slap people in the face for their stupidity!
Once I've written a class for arrays, where you could turn range-checking on and off by a compiler-directive (so turning it off kicked the range check out of the binary code, making it fast again). This gives me the Idea of making a wrapper class for pointers - something like
T& dereference() { #ifdef nullpointer_safety if(p==NULL) {throw "trying to dereference a null-pointer";} #endif return *pointer; } };
// examples: // Pointer<int> w; w.new(3); // Pointer<int> x = new int; x.dereference() = 5; // Pointer<Pointer<int>> y = &x; std::cout << y.dereference().dereference();// writes 5 to stdout // Pointer<int> z; if(z!=NULL) { z.dereference() = 7;} // z.dereference() = 3;// throws an exception Although I'm not sure if this works with function-pointers...
Nobody, who has ever programmed windows apps on API level, would tag this comment as "flamebait", but "insightful"! It's atrocious, I tells ya! and just go to MSDN and try to find ANYTHING you want there! forget it! I spent weeks reading the CRAP articles there (and I'm a graduate computer scientist who has studied at an elite university!) and still can't do stuff in windows that would require 1 line of bash-script!
if you seriously think, that the OS market was free, then you obviously don't know about Windows Refunds.
If you speak german, read this article where VOBIS (german pc vendor) describes exactly how Microsoft blackmailed them to make them stop selling any OS except windows and not tell anybody about this.
also read how microsoft tried to kill linux by silently funding SCO's lawsuit against major linux distros.
If you actually think, the OS Market was anywhere near "free" in the last 24 years, then you have no freakin clue about what you're talking and should just STFU!
I wonder what the world would be like, if the law forced every software manufacturer to notify their users about known vulnerabilities - how severe they are and how long they have been unfixed... maybe have a widget on the desktop, showing the top 20 very severe, unfixed vulnerabilities... I think I would bet my life, that windows would hardly exist on the market anymore...
The treat of Key/Value stores to Relational Databases is about as big as the threat of Visual Basic to C++. Yes, they're easier (so average script-kiddie posers might prefer them), but for many applications (especially in the pro business) they're just noch powerful enough.
if the BSD code is completely gone now, why does vista and the win7beta still have the
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
Directory? And why does that Directory contain files that have the exact same syntax as the files found in BSDs/etc Directory? even the names are the same, plus the comments in these files start with a # which is common in unix-systems (like BSD), but completely unusual for Microsofts Syntaxes...
moreover none of amazons "Movies & TV" bestseller lists http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/dvd/ref=pd_ts_d_ldr_dvd/183-1981496-3747918 or sublists (links on the left side) has a monty python title (if it was no. 2 on 01/21/2009, like the first mashable "news" claims, then i don't think it would have been out so fast)
also the "news" doesn't mention, WHICH title was no. 2 in the bestseller list, but I think amazon's search-results are sorted by Sales Rank and the highest one in the search-results for "monty python" is http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009XRZ92 on rank 755 in Movies & TV.
if such an idiot is "One of the UK's top cyber cops", then what the hell are we ever worried about? how are they supposed to build a surveillance-state with such bright experts like him?
but put a clause in the contract: the universities should pay for every distribution THAT THEY DETECT - i.e. they wouldn't have to pay for files that were shared through encrypted filesharing, but the students would still be off the hook HAHA!

If I worked at Microsoft, I probably would also have the impression that software was worthless...

according to http://www.pro-linux.de/news/2009/13904.html this reduced their IT-expenses by 70%

Why is it that every time I read "UK" in a news headline I instantly think "what stupid nazi-like decision did these idiots make this time?"?
And why is this sense of forboding always correct?
They are so much like pointy-haired bosses...
I meant
void new(const T& x) { pointer = new T; *pointer = x; }
Once I've written a class for arrays, where you could turn range-checking on and off by a compiler-directive (so turning it off kicked the range check out of the binary code, making it fast again). This gives me the Idea of making a wrapper class for pointers - something like
// Might include garbage collection
// writes 5 to stdout // throws an exception
#define nullpointer_safety
template<class T> class Pointer {
private:
T* pointer;
public:
Pointer(T* p) { pointer=p; }
Pointer(const Pointer<T>& p) { pointer=p.pointer; }
Pointer() { pointer=NULL; }
bool operator=(const T* p) {return pointer=p;}
bool operator=(const Pointer& p) { return pointer=p.pointer; }
bool operator==(const T* p) {return pointer==p;}
bool operator==(const Pointer& p) { return pointer==p.pointer; }
bool operator!=(const T* p) {return pointer!=p;}
bool operator!=(const Pointer& p) { return pointer!=p.pointer; }
void new() { pointer = new T; }
void new(T x) { pointer = new T; pointer* = x; }
void delete() { delete pointer; }
T& dereference() {
#ifdef nullpointer_safety
if(p==NULL) {throw "trying to dereference a null-pointer";}
#endif
return *pointer;
}
};
// examples:
// Pointer<int> w; w.new(3);
// Pointer<int> x = new int; x.dereference() = 5;
// Pointer<Pointer<int>> y = &x; std::cout << y.dereference().dereference();
// Pointer<int> z; if(z!=NULL) { z.dereference() = 7;}
// z.dereference() = 3;

And don't forget that this happened right after Microsoft heavily "funded GWB's election campaign".

just use freenet together with frost
./run.sh restart
./frost.sh
this is an index of all (?) "freesites" - you can visit as soon as you have freenet running
for linux users:
wget "http://downloads.freenetproject.org/alpha/installer/new_installer.jar"
java -jar new_installer.jar
cd "/path/to/freenet/"
mkdir frost
cd frost
wget "http://mesh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/jtcfrost/frost-04-Mar-2008.zip"
unzip "frost-04-Mar-2008.zip"
chmod +x frost.sh
you need to have java and I don't remember whether you need to run this as root. iirc you don't. The filename from the sourceforge link will vary - just check http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=25070

Microsoft needs to comply to $standard to be accepted by $someone?
Directory? And why does that Directory contain files that have the exact same syntax as the files found in BSDs /etc Directory? even the names are the same, plus the comments in these files start with a # which is common in unix-systems (like BSD), but completely unusual for Microsofts Syntaxes...

you don't know microsoft very well, do you?
they would create a cheap immitation of it and force on to you... and it would require ActiveX AND Silverlight AND IE8...
TFA http://www.slashfilm.com/2009/01/23/free-monty-python-videos-on-youtube-lead-to-23000-dvd-sale-increase/
refers to http://mashable.com/2009/01/22/youtube-boost-sales/
which allegedly refers to a mashable news from 01/21/2009, but the linked site http://mashable.com/2009/01/21/youtube-click-to-buy-overlay-ads/
has NOTHING to do with amazons bestseller lists AND there was no mashable news on 01/21/2009 about amazon at all. see http://mashable.com/page/2/ and http://mashable.com/page/3/

i think, the whole article is just made up.
the diagnose is: the computer has the windows
people will buy this - just like they bought the windows version without mediaplayer...
Oh boy, 3D Realms is in DEEP trouble!
