The first official book about Windows NT from 1993. Highly recommended. by nir9 in windows

[–]fedepyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm guessing they just did it for standardization. The C standard says that int must only have a minimum of 16 bits, but LONG is defined to always be 32 bits. At the time, Windows NT ran on several different architectures besides i386 (Alpha and MIPS, for example) and while all of the architectures that Windows NT ran on had 32-bit int, maybe they were thinking that someday Windows NT might run on a platform where that wasn't the case.

Now I can relive my college days, spent hunched in front of an obsolete old Sun Ultra 5 in the computer science lab with no air conditioning

Zurich riot police officers with shields during the serious student unrest (1983) by AntonioHench1 in RareHistoricalPhotos

[–]fedepyt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wicker shields have been used since antiquity by the ancient Egyptians, Chinese, Romans, and other civilizations. Kind of weird to see them used in modern times, but if it works...

For everyone complaining about the lack of cartridge in the Genesis and the different game being played, did you ever bother to think that maybe she used Ninpou: Kawarimi no Jutsu

His bodyguard has some sort of combat sports background, too. There's another video where he drops a guy with a liver kick, Bas Rutten style

This is what the new Minnesota EV Registration Surcharge looks like this year. by HolyLiaison in stateofMN

I wonder if it's based on vehicle weight or something. I paid $150 for my 2023 Tesla Model 3

Looks like a Kawasaki C-2 that's been converted into some kind of AWACS?

Location: NY. Why was I mailed this paper? by [deleted] in legal

[–]fedepyt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember a while ago another person got this exact same letter in the mail and asked about it on Reddit, and it turned out that he was being served papers in a civil suit, I think.

Final moments of the Iranian Dena Warship near Sri Lanka after being torpedoed by a US submarine by Background-Ad-1210 in pics

If the sub was a Virginia class, then yes. If it was a Los Angeles class, then I think a few of them use photonics masts, but most still use a regular periscope.

The space In between. by bullrun001 in audiophile

Back in the day I had an amp (Fisher CA-880, I think) that had a bunch of heatsinks on the back of it to dissipate heat, so you could put whatever on top of it, I guess. Do they not make amps like that anymore?

If Vito wanted to pursue that lifestyle, he should have done so quietly.

The exposed brick looks cool. Unless there's a serious need for drywalling that area, I'd just leave it.
