Comments:

<0> little endian is nice because you don't have to touch up the address if you want to cast a value to a smaller type.
<0> but normally you just fetch the whole word into a register and access the smaller piece (byte/half-word) from the register.
<0> endianess doesn't really matter on RISC, and RISC is all that matters.
<1> zid, actually, I think you're wrong.
<1> zid, it seems to behave just the same here.
<1> Wait
<1> Maybe I should test on big endian
<1> I forget I'm on an Intel now
<1> Nope, behaves on big endian the same, too.
<1> Wel.
<2> littlendian = 78563412 bigendian = 12345678 (order of nibbles in ram)
<2> I think
<1> Well, your 0x0012 doesn't make sense.
<2> yea it doesn't does it
<2> what day is it today btw?



<1> If you write 0x0012, it'll just write 0x12 anyway
<1> But, if you do 0x00 and then 0x12, both cases it will stillr ead the 0x00 first.
<2> if you write 0x00 then 0x12 and read it back little endian you'll get 0x1200
<1> You're changing again, are you reading back 1 byte or 2 bytse?
<2> '0x1200' count them
<1> 2 bytes.
<1> 0x1200 is not 0x0012 though
<2> they're both 2 bytes long in my eyes
<1> 0x0012 is just 0x12
<2> I don't care what you think, mine makes more sense
<2> it beats casting the english language
<1> Well, I don't get why you'd want to write something big endian (00, 12), and then read it little endian (1200)
<2> I wouldn't
<2> I'm just saying that's what would happen
<2> can we stop talking so I can get a new firefox?
<1> No.
<1> Actually, yes, binrapt was right.
<2> That I have downs syndrome?
<3> aedinius: Notice how he talks about 2 byte values all the time. 16-bit syndrome, clearly.
<1> binrapt: Yeah.
<3> Oh, even one 4 byte one! Incredible.
<2> typing out 0x00000012 takes too long
<2> and 0x0012 works just fine
<3> Yeah, 0x12 is way shorter.
<1> int i = 0x0012; fwrite(&i, 1, 1, file);
<1> What gets written?
<2> 12
<1> hell, short i = = 0x0012; fwrite(&, 2, 1, file)
<2> but files don't have endians
<1> Sure they do.
<2> well I suppose
<1> The data you write there has endian.
<1> If you fwrite stuff out.
<2> but who writes raw shorts to files?
<1> Apparently you.
<2> I can't say I've written a short to a file, then changed endian
<2> hrmph, firefox is lame it jsut gives me a folder
<1> Anyway.
<2> I want make install god damnit
<2> is there a way to make it tell you where it's executing from when you run soemthing?
<2> like when you hit 'ls' it tells you the path to ls
<4> which
<4> put, which ls
<2> aha
<2> yay
<2> firefox 1.5.0.3
<2> 4*
<2> mplayer and firefox, that's my whole application suite upgraded! :p
<4> i used mplayer a few days ago and i hated it
<4> is there a version of it thats something like mpc for windows?
<2> it's the best player in existance
<2> there's a **** load of UIs
<2> I don't use em though
<4> sigh, so basically its a nontrivial exercise to get something similar to MPC :P
<2> I know all the keys
<1> Kardos: Why?
<4> linux is stunted forever dudes ;)
<1> MPC looks ... icky
<2> erm, mpc ****s arse for playing ****
<2> mplayer has custom codecs that'll rape the *** of anything you have



<4> nope, it works fine, best thing ive found for windows
<1> I like VLC.
<5> aedinius: are you still in college?
<6> aedinius: you changed your mind about it?
<1> sn0`: Yeah.
<1> twkm: Hm?
<1> twkm: I've always liked it.
<2> doesn't VLC use mplayers codecs or something?
<1> twkm: One of my top favorites on OSX at least.
<5> aedinius: what year are you? Seems like you've been in college forever
<1> zid_: Yeah, they use the same libraries.
<1> sn0`: Yeah.
<5> aedinius: part time or somtehing?
<1> sn0`: Final year, we hope.
<1> No, full time.
<5> aedinius: heh wtf happend
<6> hmm. /me shakes head. i blame the qmail patch (**** i hate that) i'm writing.
<1> sn0`: It'll be 5 years from start to finish.
<2> wasn't qmail that app that had a $10k bounty on the first exploit?
<5> aedinius: yeah took me 5 years as well
<1> Computer Science major w/focus in security, Infrastucture ***urance and Security minor
<5> aedinius: I did a dual major EE/CDE
<5> EE/CE
<1> Ah
<1> So tired. =/
<5> aedinius: congrats on your upcoming graduation
<1> That's still a year out =/
<2> You know what ****s?
<1> What?
<2> running a huge app that takes 10 minutes to load just for '--version'
<7> the guy in the cube next to me will not stop coughing these hard deep coughs
<7> it's driving me nuts
<5> myrddin: that's nothing
<5> myrddin: I've got some n00b inventory bitch asking me stupid questions every 30 minutes
<7> sn0`: he's been doing it for weeks
<1> myrddin: Drop a grenade over the wall
<1> Yell, "Fire in the hole!" and drop to the floor.
<7> heh
<4> aedinius: ok, you win, VLC is comparable to MPC :D
<5> myrddin: this guy smells like **** too... need to bring a gas mask to work tomorrow.
<2> better yet, drop a python over the wall, and cover him with mouse blood
<1> Or ... just throw a smoke bomb over
<5> he comes in my cube and the whole damn thing smells horrible after 5 minutes
<7> ****s when coworkers smell like ***
<5> yeah this guy ****ing REAKS
<5> it's horrible
<1> YEAH
<1> We had a customer like that
<1> After he left, my boss walked around the store for like 2 minutes with just the spray can spraying lysol
<5> I'm about to go buy a spray can
<1> He reeked
<1> And he came like once a week =(
<1> That guy always had problems
<1> I liked working at the other store
<1> What was worse about it though
<1> His computer reeked too
<1> And was filled with ash and the like from his cigarattes
<2> Imma go poke my spider
<1> I couldn't work on his computer for more than 5s
<5> this guy is a fat albino that looks like a huge cuetip that smells really bad :/
<1> ugh
<2> aedinius: is there a command to name windows or something?
<2> I have the choice of tabbing between like.. 10 windows named rxvt :P
<1> command?
<2> right click title bar not doing crap, so I ***ume it's a command
<1> zid, xterm -T "terminal name" works
<2> hrmph
<2> if i were using xterm
<1> rxvt should have something similar.
<1> -T or -title
<2> will it work while it's still running though, I guess not
<8> xwit -select -name blah
