    I have three days to get ready for my Practical Flight Test. I only called the FAA to schedule a flight medical so I wasn't really ready. If I don't take the opening on Monday it could be a while. At least now I have something more fun than assembly programming to do this weekend.

          If you think about it, there are similarities. Opcodes, byte ordering, indirect addressing, stack requirements...and debugging always involves single stepping through every instruction that results in the bug and inspecting the contents of every register. Marc

            Yeah, that much is true. If you make a mistake, it can take hours to work out what it was.

                I know, I was really looking forward to using the SSE extensions on my motion recognition projects to make them really scream but somehow this seems more, um, normal?

                      So you want to navigate heavy, large, metal objects through an increasingly crowded airspace, you say? I'll leave you with one small thought to ponder. In between playing guitar in tequila infested rock gigs and coping with strippers during the Bunny Wars, I spent five years writing air traffic control software. Let's see how well you sleep now... :-D

                              So this upcoming event should be about your 5th time?

                              The Digital World. It is an amazing place in which we primitive humans interact. Our flesh made this synthetic machine. You see, we are so smart, we know a lot of stuff. We were grown from cells that came from the universe, which the matter and physics I'm typing in it is amazing how the universe is working. Human life is very amazing. How I experience this sh*t its like wow.

                                      Don't be mad. You shouldn't worry about pleasing other people. Just do what you do and enjoy yourself. If you are pissing people off then laugh at them, its funny when people get mad because it really effects them. You lost, they won. You have been defeated and they are all satisfied at your frustration. Don't give them that satisfactin.

                                      The Digital World. It is an amazing place in which we primitive humans interact. Our flesh made this synthetic machine. You see, we are so smart, we know a lot of stuff. We were grown from cells that came from the universe, which the matter and physics I'm typing in it is amazing how the universe is working. Human life is very amazing. How I experience this sh*t its like wow.

                                        So you want to navigate heavy, large, metal objects through an increasingly crowded airspace, you say? I'll leave you with one small thought to ponder. In between playing guitar in tequila infested rock gigs and coping with strippers during the Bunny Wars, I spent five years writing air traffic control software. Let's see how well you sleep now... :-D

                                        So which Tail number do I use that activates the back-door to priority ATC handling?

                                          Just SSE? Why not SSE2 3 and 4?
