This has never been true for dye-sublimation printers, which do not require dithering.

I'm not talking about icecast as a directory client. I'm talking about the module that was removed from VLC. Read the press release from VideoLAN:

SHOUTcast Radio is a web site which provides a directory of radio stations avalaible on the Internet. It provides categorizations of such stations, so it is easier to find one that matches your interest. According to users feedback, the integration of such directory inside VLC is one of the best features of the software.

Listening to Shoutcast or icecast streams is done by many projects. I doubt you'd need a license from Nullsoft to do so.

Shoutcast predates icecast. And, in any case, this appears to have been a Shoutcast directory client, not a media server.

Subtract one for the header line!

echo $(($(ps ax | wc -l) - 1 ))

That's knee BOUNCERS.

Really? I didn't get into my old TI 99/4A until I was 3. Of course, I don't think we HAD it until I was 3.

My kid likes to tap on my spare keyboard, or to hammer on the keys of my wife's netbook. I already have a list of Kid Stuff to install on a junky computer when it's time in two more years :)

Oh sure, but there are cases where recompiling is not an option.

If you're running a debugger on a program that runs against a huge data set, and you have conditional breakpoints. That takes for. E. Ver.

Even if the performance boost of generated code is not that high, a performance boost on generatING code would be a wonderful and welcome bonus

LLVM interoperates with GCC already. From the WIkipedia entry: "LLVM was originally written to be a more aggressive, higher performance system for the existing GCC stack,[3] and many of the GCC front-ends have been modified to work with it. LLVM currently supports the compilation of C, C++, Fortran, Objective-C, Ada, D, using front-ends derived from version 4.0.1 and 4.2 of the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC)."

GP may be talking about Mac OS Classic/Mac Toolbox type stuff. Passing in Pascal strings from C, etc. Weird memory architecture holdovers from the days of 24-bit addressing and non-relocatable memory.

thevOICe is a computer vision system that can actually run on Android phones.

One of these

Hey now, The Oatmeal is generally a lot funnier.
