    Pandora In Education

    I only seriously considered computing as a career in my early twenties, thank god my parents bought me a micro-computer when i was 8 years old. Otherwise i'd probably be on the dole. Programming is useful in a number of other careers, from financial analysts to astro physicists. By your logic...

    7Th Of May Near Over In China

    I have read Sun Tsu's book. It says you should take your enemy's weapons and turn them against them. With this in mind, my (chinese) friend is going to buy an erhu and post it to me. I have a talent for playing such instruments very very badly. If by the time erhu arrives, there is still some...

    How Do I Get Out Of This?

    *shrug* your choice. Other people have got their money back without issue, the only grumbles I have heard have been about foreign exchange rates. When mine arrives, the first thing I'm going to do is try it out, the second thing is almost certainly going to be buy another pandora for my gf. I...

    It is a plain noun, so you just add an s (no apostrophe), this makes the correct plural: Πανδώραs

    Gnash/flash

    There is a fair amount talked about this see here (if you use the search you might find others) I use gnash on my pc, and its not half bad. Not perfect but it copes with *nearly* everything.

    Have you tried medication? I find it can help, or sex therapy.

    Forum Counselling

    This forum has a few problems. There is a lot of hostility, and bad feeling. We shout 'troll' too quickly, but to be honest we don't even need a troll, someone just has to make an ambiguous technical statement, and suddenly there is a blood bath with fur flying and everyone jumping in. So.. I...

    Is The Pandora Vaporware?

    don't waste your breath guys. Personally, if it was my forum, I'd trace the ip. If it's chinese maybe someone at the factory got into trouble over recent events and is working out a grudge. Maybe check against real members too.

    Is The Pandora Vaporware?

    The title made me giggle :D , but the post wasn't funny, just disturbing :angry: . I think WizardStan :ph34r: hit the nail on the head with the sociopath thing.

    Gcc Chroot Cross Compiler

    Thanks for this. I don't think i will build directly from the tutorials, but i will sift through them for any interesting bits. btw - I used gentoo for years, I was fond of it, the quality of the documentation was good. (Now though i tend to use Arch for my desktop.) It is an option, just not...

    Mips And Gflops

    necessary? desireable? well not for me it isn't, but whos to say why he wants to figures? Maybe it *is* for marketing (e.g. marketing to his dad why he should buy one). Im not qualified to comment on the motivation.

    Mips And Gflops

    If you want to compare systems like this using the technical specs, i suggest something like the following:- Compile a list of all the numbers can be defined and compared for each system. (processor speed, memory size etc) Adjust the figures with an appropriate factor for each architecture...

    Mips And Gflops

    The 'numbers' give a good idea of what hardware is best at, and how fast it is compared to similar hardware. It wont tell you how good it is compared to dissimilar hardware. A mini cooper can get you across a busy city centre faster than a ferrari. So does that make it *faster*? I think the...
