It's a WSL distribution designed to be well integrated and useful for the group of people who use WSL (Mostly people developing on Windows who need, or can benefit from running Linux applications locally in a container with relatively unfettered access to their operating system- including sharing network interfaces, including localhost)
No one is being victimized.
No, but the binaries are compiled to run on a Linux kernel, and Windows is emulating a Linux kernel while running said binaries, soooo, ya, WLinux actually works as a name.
As long as you had a WSL-compatible *userspace* init, setting up other basic userspace interfaces as expected, the said distro would run flawlessly on a Linux kernel as well with zero binary modification.
I love it when people have no idea what the fuck they're talking about.
WSL is everything I wished Cygwin could be- by no fault of Cygwin's, of course.
We are unfortunately required to maintain a few Windows servers for certain software suites, and WSL has been a dream come-true in being able to get our standard Linux instrumentation, monitoring, and automation working.
That and using konsole via Xming instead of cmd.exe or powershell's interface window is worth any fucking overhead.
The compiler works however the person(s) who wrote it tell it to work. Do you not know how computers work? People give them instructions...
Let's look at the factual evidence. Intel compiler related code runs slower in some cases on AMD processors than Intel processors.
There could be 2 reasons for this:
1) The standard code path uses SSE instructions to accelerate performance, but those are overridden by safe functions if an AMD processor is detected.
2) The standard code path is unaccelerated and switches in SSE instructions if it detects a GenuineIntel part with SSE support.
One of those is legally defendable, one is not.
Being AMD *failed* to win an injunction to change the behavior of the compiler, which of those do you think is actual methodology?
P.S. you can find multiple articles from this lawsuit he is talking about by searching "amd vs intel lawsuit"
You can indeed. And you apparently failed to understand them.
You're right, compilers work how the person(s) who wrote it tell it to work. But you assume a completely illogical code path must be the case, when there is an obvious logical one that produces the same result. I can only conclude that you're an idiot.
I'm very familiar with the lawsuit.
The compiler works exactly as I said it did.
The standard path excludes SSE support. If the runtime code detects a GenuineIntel part, it checks the CPUID flags to see if it has SSE support, and then utilizes the accelerated functions.
As I said, you can argue all day whether that's crappy behavior (it's not like AMD chips don't have equivalent CPUID registers) but it is factually incorrect to say that they neuter code on AMD processors. They refuse to accelerate it on non-GenuineIntel parts.
Actually, chooses a specially optimized path for GenuineIntel parts, and falls back to a standard path for non.
Now I don't disagree with you that this sucks. However, I also think you're a disingenuous shit for wording it the way you did. Hurrah for the death of intellectual honesty.
I have an iPhone X, currently, and a Samsung J7 Prime.
I've had an iPhone for work, and an Android for personal use since the iPhone 3G, and the HTC G1 (the original).
So I'm really not a "fan" of either. I use both regularly.
The random shutdowns on my previous iPhone (6s) were very real, and pretty obviously related to some kind of poor battery handling on the iPhone's part. It randomly shut down at as high as 50% all the time if you did something that you'd imagine was CPU intensive, refused to turn back on until you plug it in, let it charge for 20 seconds, and boom. Starts right up with 60%.
I can also attest though, that no Android I've owned has ever done this.
That *also* being said, my Samsung laptop definitely did this when its battery got really bad.
I do believe they do this to handle their battery issue. I also however believe that it's a problem they've made themselves by either poor battery power statistics (not reporting that battery health at being like 5% when it should be), or poor quality batteries.
Terrible analogies.
I made some better ones for you.
Are you also annoyed that systems no longer have replaceable RAM?
Perhaps the replaceable hard drive, I personally missed that one. Granted I don't have any devices that need it, but it was nice.
There are economic reasons for not having user-replaceable batteries, but equating them with obsolete technology just makes you stupid. Don't be stupid. You're not stupid.
You literally just pasted a reply from Quora as support of your ridiculous claim?
Amazing.
As for the king part, you seem to be suggesting because the proposal was raised by an officer that officer was the entire basis for it. That is incorrect.
No, that was merely to outline the illegitimacy of the suggestion. No body in power had any intention of allowing a King, and had he declared himself one, the revolutionary war would have continued.
You are of course welcome to show evidence that some party with the power to select our form of government considered making Washington a Monarch. I'll wait.
That's part of the story. The clause's wording comes from prior established law which was already interpreted to mean the children of immigrants, though precluding the children of ambassadors or other foreign dignitaries. Along with the Amendment, was passed the Expatriation act, declaring that humans have the right to declare themselves no longer subject to a former foreign power. As such, common law and all passed law allowed for immigrants to have citizen children in the US.
The idea of the anchor baby was indeed desired back then. We needed people.
The debate on the Civil Rights Act [of 1866, precursor to the Amendment] contained the following exchange:
Mr. Cowan: I will ask whether it will not have the effect of naturalizing the children of Chinese and Gypsies born in this country?
Mr. Trumbull: Undoubtedly. ...
Mr. Trumbull: I should like to inquire of my friend from Pennsylvania, if the children of Chinese now born in this country are not citizens?
Mr. Cowan: I think not.
Mr. Trumbull: I understand that under the naturalization laws the children who are born here of parents who have not been naturalized are citizens. This is the law, as I understand it, at the present time. Is not the child born in this country of German parents a citizen? I am afraid we have got very few citizens in some of the counties of good old Pennsylvania if the children born of German parents are not citizens.
Mr. Cowan: The honorable Senator assumes that which is not the fact. The children of German parents are citizens; but Germans are not Chinese; Germans are not Australians, nor Hottentots, nor anything of the kind. That is the fallacy of his argument.
Mr. Trumbull: If the Senator from Pennsylvania will show me in the law any distinction made between the children of German parents and the children of Asiatic parents, I may be able to appreciate the point which he makes; but the law makes no such distinction; and the child of an Asiatic is just as much of a citizen as the child of a European.
if illegals are subject to the jurisdiction, then that means that local jurisdictions have powers of establishing immigration
It actually quite clearly indicates Jurisdiction of the United States, not Jurisdiction of the Many States. It refers to the jurisdiction of the federal government.
The 14th was carefully worded to make it so that anyone that was considered "property" by way of direct slavery or through "indentured" servitude...
I find this claim particularly bizarre as slavery was constitutionally prohibited prior to the passage of the 14th Amendment. You may be familiar with the 13th?
I personally hate the idea that where a person is born should even have any bearing upon citizenship
It was an important notion for a country that was to be composed of immigrants and refugees from Europe.
Now if you think the 14th confers citizenship on any person being born on US soil then why are citizens born in US territories not automatically US citizens?
Because the US had no overseas territories in 1868. Next stupid question.
I don't want you to think me calling you a fucking moron is an ad hominem, because it is entirely separate from the refutation of your ridiculous ass argument. I just wanted you to know that you are in fact a fucking moron.
Well, he presides over it while present, taking over from the President Pro Tempore, the actual leader of the Senate. It's hard to call the VP the "leader" of a body he is not allowed to speak or vote in unless in case of a tie.
he is empowered to reject all acts of the congress
And they empowered to reject his rejection.
he is immune to legal prosecution and can parse out that immunity as he pleases via pardon
But not immunie to being removed from office and subsequently prosecuted.
The supreme court is selected by him
And serves at the pleasure of the Congress, the body that confirms, and can remove said Justice.
The President isn't all powerful but the role was created when George Washington refused to be king outright
There is precisely zero truth to this old myth. A single colonel in the Contintental Army telling Washington he should declare himself King isn't the Continental Congress deciding a republican form of government isn't for them.
and he is the boss of everyone in government, including the congress and supreme court.
And this is *dangerously* ignorant.
The branches of government are equal. There is no boss.
He's the politician that everyone gets to vote on
He's the politician that constitutionally, states get to vote on. The fact that the states currently allow their populace to vote is by no means guaranteed federally.
Ya, I didn't even go past your first paragraph. It was so fucking wrong that the rest would be a waste of time. Stop lying. You're making this world a fucking shithole by doing so. Nobody can separate fact from fiction while assholes like you make shit up to fit your agenda.
What's worse, is likeminded pond scum actually moderated you positively.
I think that is at least one reasonable definition of political extremism
No, it isn't. And sticking to an argument that stupid after being called out on it is comically stupid.
What it is, is an attempt to reframe actual political extremism to be anything that bothers you.
Redefining words and terms seems to be all the rage from today's snowflakes on the left and right. My presumption, is you're one of those right-wing snowflakes.
Pre-orders started at $488 (or so sites that track such things claim)
Prices then flew up once limited supply was apparent. Such is the way of things. You're definitely right that you can't get one for MSRP right now, but you will be able to eventually.
Then again, if money is no object and you have the need for speed, Core i9-9900K is the CPU to buy.
Also, out of curiosity, from where are you getting this 90% more expensive from?
The 9900K has an MSRP of $488, the 2700X has an MSRP of $329.
Now, I'm no mathematician, but $488 != $625.
Meltdown is as much a risk for the average joe as death by meteorite.
The side-channel has abysmal transfer rates, can in no way be executed in a way that doesn't impact the performance of the machine, and can be easily mitigated when used in vectors that are going to affect the average person.
Assuming worst case, where it's allowed to run while someone doesn't notice it, a program's virtual address space is *huge*.
These attacks are real, but their real-world applicability is highly hypothetical.
I think you're part of the crowd trying to amplify their impact to sell your particular sports team's processor vendor, and your posting history makes this pretty apparent.
