Google manually adjusts its results for censorship reasons. This is probably why google has gotten so much worse, they don't want information to be freely accessible, they only want things they approve of to be seen.
Table based exceptions only work if everyone plays ball. Its not practical to introduce them after the fact because they will not work with any existing code including OS callbacks. AMD64 can use them because they were…
Am I the only one who prefers the way x86 did exceptions? I really don't like that with table based exceptions, every function must include bloated unwind tables, and is also forced to conform to a very restrictive set…
It takes years to build up trust but a single lie to destroy it. The Western mainstream media is rather biased and often misrepresents the truth, occasionally outright lying, but as we know even a single lie is enough…
> From what I can tell up to and including Windows XP the painting was done in software Defamation and blasphemy of the highest order. In XP the GUI was fully hardware accelerated and highly performant. Possibly the…
Kind of but not really, whilst it shares some design choices, the 8086 is neither source or binary compatible with the 8080.
Not at all, the original 16bit x86 was well designed. The 32bit extensions were pretty decent too. Its not until much later that it really started to turn to shit. The real disaster started when Intel started…
Implying that so called RISC cpus are actually RISC. There is nothing even remotely "reduced" about a modern ARM cpu.
The UK government hates its own country and people, why would they bother with something so trivial as national security. That would be like a serial killer worrying about infection whilst dismembering their victim.
I think it might just be the NTSC composite that looks bad. I have never felt any desire to use RGB on my PAL Mega Drive since the composite output looks excellent. On PAL it gives just the right amount of blending to…
No game was ever fully optimized for PAL because it is literally impossible. The only way to fix the squashed down graphics would be to completely re-scale all the art. This re-scaled art would no longer fit in the…
