support these macros in c99 mode. If you have code that uses
ellipses (...) as part of a macro definition and you are not
compiling with c99, you will need to rewrite the macro. Two possible
approaches are to replace the macro with a new variadic function, or
to create a family of macros, each taking different (fixed) numbers

Worth a try with c99 ?

Since you're going to settle down and have a family, find a way to get out of the US. There's no future there. Do you want to raise children in a country that thinks evolution is a theory ? And climate change is an Algore hoax ? I could go on for hours but the US is a shithole. Get out while you can. It's not going to get better.
If your children grow up in the United States, they will be morons. Guaranteed.

You used to be able to order AIX for unlicensed systems online - I think it was $800-$2k for most hobbyist type systems.

I bought a new correcting Selectric III once. Cost $1500 and was a major operation just to find out how to get it. Was worth it, though. That's one nice typewriter.
You'd think that companies would realize by now that "mystique" is not a substitute for "available and affordable" in most instances.

Just saw an article about how they plan to enter that emerging market, China, blah blah blah. That's something they should have done ten years ago, the mouth-breathing fools. "We're going to sell a lot of stuff in China, our new market !" Not if you make people fly to Hong Kong and make an appointment with a fifteen minute window on either side, just to buy a fucking telephone. These people are such creeps, I will laugh my ass off when they go under. They deserve it.
(There is a vast difference betwewen the Selectric and the iPhone. The Selectric was superior in every way to anything else available at the time, and beautifully made to boot. The iPhone is made like crap and has exactly one advantage over a Samsung of half the cost - it's narrower so it fits girls' hands better.)
My suspicion is that most hobbyists run AIX boxes under IBM's "don't ask, don't tell" policy with eBay media.
IBM does (did ?) a lot of that
Old-timers around there were quite generous to private parties. That was pre-Gerstner though, so things may now be different.

How do you figure CEO's everywhere are crooks?
That's true, I was probably wrong. Germany seems to be slightly better in this regard.
Otherwise, the preponderance of the evidence indicates that yes indeedy, CEO's are all crooks and thieves.
Here are two scenarios, you tell me the difference :
One : Downtown Oakland at ten p.m., black teenager walks up to you with a gun and demands all your money.
Two : Martha's Vineyard, white CEO makes some phone calls, buys a few laws. Population of Cliffordsville taxes themselves to pay for police "protection." Guys in blue (or grey, or black) armed to the teeth go around enforcing Mr Martha's Vineyard's laws.
What's the real difference ?

Make no mistake, there's a fair share of incompetence out there.
Nice try. But the evidence shows that no matter how "incompetent" the CEO is, he walks off with a big pot of money. That's not incompetence. That's greed, corruption, avarice, whatever. But incompetence, no.

On the subject of HP, that fail boat has been sinking for over a decade now. It started with the Compaq merger, burial of Alpha in favor of Itanium, and followed by a long string of failed mergers, poor investments, and mass layoffs.
So who was making those decisions ? The janitor ?
Meg is taking home fifteen million after this wonderful year for HP. She was on the board, she voted for the purchase of the current debacle (I forget the name - ten billion down the toilet, is it ?), she is now ceo. Apotheker got nine for his fiasco tenure so she figures she's gotta get fifteen. Meanwhile, they have to send work overseas and lay people off "to save money." Incompetent ? Nice try.
SGI is the poster child for American business over the past twenty years. I'm not ranting : this is the ordinary ol' plain as the nose on your face truth. Shed your beliefs and look at the numbers.
Do you go to Las Vegas ever ? have you figured out yet that this game is rigged ? Sure, one guy every fifteen years puts all his chips on 23 red and comes up a winner. But statistically, there's no chance. Eventually the job creators, the investors and the ceo's have all the money. And everyone else is a slave.
The "talent and skill" of a CEO have nothing to do with it. They aren't. They just own the green pockets. Which they bought with our money.

There's a command to reset the memory. The bootup sequence will disable memory slots that it sees as bad. if you move memory around to test, you can end up with a bunch of slots marked "bad" that really aren't. And it doesn't always re-identify the "bad" memory as good on the next boot sequence.
I forget the command (Oldtimer's kicking in) but it's saved my arse a few times.

You can't really get upset over Zuckerberg, just like you can't get super upset over P.T. Barnum.
What is upsetting is the government and financial sectors of the United States of America, a nation of 350 million people now who once touted themselves ... oh, still do ... as the cradle of Freedom and Democracy and the very home of Exceptionalism, Competence, and Capability -- all acting as the boot-licking running dogs for a bunch of con artists. All three branches of government have been bought by the shysters. They are soooo sure they can run the country by putting up "This Way to the Egress" signs, then forcing people to visit the egress at gunpoint. That's working so well.
Zuckerberg is a schmuck, but he isn't the real problem. The entire government is a problem but again, not the real problem.
The US is a democracy. People put those assbreaths in power. Then they cheer for "innovative Apple !" while their buddies in Cupertino disembowel the economy of the United States. "They can't help it, it's a Business Decision !"
A majority of the American populace would excuse any CEO who ass-raped his grandma, cut her throat, then poured five gallons of gasoline on her and set her afire if she had a nickel in the bank. "Oh, that was just a business decision. The company has a fiduciary responsibility to maximize their profits ! She had five cents, statistically she was overdue to die anyhow. Nothing personal, you understand."
Whose fault is it, anyway ? I wrote this the other day, then looked at it and realized it was true : the United States is evil. Stupid and evil.
