This reasoning is actually why I ran Windows XP 64 bit edition for very very long. Most exploits found that it was XP and tried to do stuff and failed on the 64 bit kernel they did not expect.

I don’t think you understand. Notepad was literally one of the examples that comes with the SDK. It doesn’t need any maintenance. As long as windows has a native SDK, notepad exists because it is basically the simplest GUI application, prov

I still use a copy of Calc.EXE from Windows 2000 that I just move from machine to machine. It stopped being useful after that. That old one is nice. Hex mode. Starts quickly.

one could argue that 4004 is it. It does not really do memory ops at all. all decoding for memory ops happens inside the memory chips. but yeah - not non-monolithic enough

That is fair. Reverse-engineered drivers are common. But depending on undocumented CPU core features seems a bit insane (as indeed the LKML post mentions)

I see no further point for this discussion. Either you truly do not understand or are pretending to not understand the difference between memory models (affect literally every memory access as long as the system is powered up) and BIOS (not

The focus on user space fragmentation is wrong, IMHO. One of the maintainers (Catalin Marinas) made [0] a much more important point: Apple makes no promises about how their "TSO" bits work now or will work in the future. This mode

This problem was supposed to be solved by app stores filtering these apps out. Sadly this does not work 100%. Some apps do this but are too-big-to-ban-from-the-appstore and others point to the first group and scream about selective enforc

Given that “put X into a bikini” is constitutionally protected speech, and the output fails the Roth test for obscenity and is thus the same, would not every other law be null and void w.r.t. stoping this? And “qualifies as X according to s

Goalpost movement alert. The claim was that "AI can be told not to output something". It cannot. It can be told to not output something sometimes, and that might stick, sometimes. This is true. Original statement is not.

If your effort is provably futile, wouldn't saying you tried be a demonstration of a profound misallocation of effort (if you DID try), or a blatant lie (if you did not)?
