As long as the lawyers that filed this DMCA takedown really represent Sega and Sega owns the copyright that they claim is infringed, then there is no perjury. It is irrelevant if the notice is otherwise frivolous.

Well we did evolve big buttocks (bigger than other primates) that are apparently useful for sitting for extended periods of time.

In addition (for me at least), working from home means that I can open the window and get some fresh air. I've never worked in professional offices with windows that open and there was never enough ventilation. My nightmare is a long m

> I just don't get the double standards, the UK enforcing a contract is good... the EU doing the same is... bad? Well, it looks like British tabloids are influencing this point of view in English speaking countries.

Looks like they are implementing most of the tenets of modern UI design: - flat buttons - gray on gray low contrast text - hamburger style menu - lots of empty space I believe they should also add some random buttons on the title bar, other

Are you sure it was a segfault? DOS did not have any memory protection, so segfault would be impossible. Or maybe you used some protected mode DOS extender?

Unfortunately it gives you 632KB of conventional memory out of the box and this should be enough for everybody... But you can still load up some TSRs to recreate the experience.

For me, my Mac Mini (running OS X) is the worst. It just wakes up whenever it wants to. Usually in the middle of the night.

Good ole Gitprime! The source of so many bad memories. I used to be on a 4 person team and Gitprime was used to stack rank us for every quarterly "performance" review. Woe to the one who ended up ranked at the bottom...

And that is exactly why it would be very expensive to open source it. All this revenue ($30000 * number of paying organizations) would then be gone.

I believe 386 did not have certain "atomic" instructions like CMPXCHG or XADD. So in order to support 386, the kernel had to have special versions of all locking primitives just for 386.

From my experience, CockroachDB is super simple to set up. You can pretty much follow their tutorial and get a working cluster in no time. So I would say it's a good solution for non-experts. Now if you are already running Postgres, th

I just stare at my desk, but it looks like I'm working. I do that for probably another hour after lunch too, I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work.
