As someone messing with LLVM a lot.. basically LLVM is where a ton of development effort is going. GCC is a dead end it seems like. LLVM is designed to be extended where as GCC.. well, usually doesn't really seem to have been designed.

heh I found such a thing once for modems, wasn't writeable, but for a device that's not suppose to have public firmware files, it was interesting. Included old versions and probably debug versions and internal docs too, but that s

I've had exactly this idea before, but never pursued it because I couldn't get past the problem of shadows. It looks like this doesn't either. ie, if you are making a vertical pinch gesture and you happen to get it precise en

You can do this if you right click and do play song/artist radio.. but in my experience it sucks really bad, and has only gotten worse over time. Use to, it was kinda useful. Now it's complete garbage. I'm not sure what they

I can't remember where I read the article, but it summarized it as thus. Al Queda was a big threat, but you hardly ever heard of people being radicalized by them. ISIS on the other hand is clearly quite efficient at radicalizing people

I think you'd have to think about things differently. Imagine the people with only 2 cones... Now imagine if everyone only had two cones "I can't imagine how adding an extra cone would allow you to see these different colors

I'd have to open it up again and try to do something with it to remember.. I think it was like I'd drag something onto it, but then I couldn't delete it, and a few other unintuitive things.. and yea, I never could get the aud

The most common need was that many altcoins would start off with a large premine, and then they would offer an IPO/ICO/CFC (depending on the time, the term for this would change to be whatever was least likely to get the SEC'

Heh, I guess I forgot how weird things look from the outside.. but no one knew how to properly destroy coins, or that there was even a proper way. Despite there being all these altcoin "Developers", 95% of them only actually knew

by earlz 11y ago
I actually had to address this in the altcoin world (back when that was a thing) because the C-CEX exchange would take money for "destroying" coins, but the method they used for destroying coins was just taking a video of them sen

My favorite is when they broadcast some old TV show and because the TV show itself is so cut that they can't really cut anything out, they instead speed is up to 1.1x or 1.2x. Honestly though you can only really tell by listening to th

My understanding is that with vinyl, if the signal has too high of an RMS at low frequencies the needle can literally skip off the groove, and for this reason vinyl can't necessarily be as compressed and loud..

I mean, I'm just some hobbyist, but my understanding is everyone renders to lossless and then converts that to the various MP3/AAC formats, never changing anything solely because of the final compressed format.

I can't hear a difference between 96khz/44khz in it's raw form. However, I can tell the difference from effects in audio mixing. The extra detail can really make a difference in how well an audio effect VST works. I have a 96

No, but I also am not surrounded by unfamiliar people talking and texting and even chewing and getting up randomly at my house.. Oh, also being able to pause a movie if needed would be nice

Yep, I have a friend who pays $150/month for 50mbit/s satellite with a 20G data cap. He makes heavy use of the unmetered time from 12am-4am though. And yea, I did some look ups before about this issue and it's ridiculous the

That would be interesting, I think it'd still end up being a bit too much for anything interactive, but would be much closer to usable

by earlz 11y ago
The bad thing about satellite that makes it unsuitable for many use cases will always remain to be latency, not speed or availability. 1.5 second ping is perfectly usable for web browsing, but it is painful for many other workflows.. And th

CDs are digital though.. I mean, sure there is the mastering, but you don't get the same analog subtleties that everyone pines for, be it tape or vinyl. I don't think CDs will ever be regarded as a "better format" for li

uhh.. yes. You don't normally hook the guitar amp directly up to the loudspeakers of the venue because the speaker cabinet hooked to an amp imparts almost as much tone and color as the amp itself. (if you've ever used headphones h
