Supposedly, we are all going to run out of internet bandwidth soon! The huge increase in the usage of smartphones globally is leading to something called this "spectrum crunch".

That's why we have to ban net neutrality, so telecom companies will have more to invest in infrastructure.

Why are you using deprecated technology in 2017? Get a Mac.

Is normal porn and pirated stuff permited in US airports ? What about hong kong. Do they check your laptop ? if so how do i hide it ? i thought making an arhive and hide it in deep system files. i think encryption software will raise doubts on them
>>60142968
Are you fucking stupid? Nobody cares really, unless you look like Ahmed or Pajeet. If you are really worried, just install Gentoo with no DM.
>>60143079
Its my first time flying . I am from romania btw
>>60142968
I never bring my laptop with me when I travel overseas, it's too risky. If I needed to bring it with me, I'd zero the hard drive first and reformat it. It's all encrypted of course but it would suck to be barred from a country for refusing to decrypt.
Writing a small c program with the following data structure:typedef struct node{
struct node* child[MAX_CHILDS];
} node;
and initializing node's childs in the following manner:node *n = (node*)malloc(sizeof(node));
for (int i = 0; i < MAX_CHILDS; i++)
{
n->c[i] = NULL;
}
this compiles just fine in x86.
But for some reason when I'm trying to compile the same code in x64 I get access violation exception (pic related).
Why is this /g/?
What's up with the x64 version of the compiled code?
>casting the return value of malloc in C
>>60142849
Sorry for the init part the code is as follows:node *n = (node*)malloc(sizeof(node));
for (int i = 0; i < MAX_CHILDS; i++)
{
n->child[i] = NULL;
}
>>60142862
It's fine. The cast is there because I tried to make it a cpp program instead of a c program.
Funny thing is that the code works in x64 bits as a cpp program.
I'm really not understanding why is this

Nah. Grab Secret security clearance and make a few friends in the military. Then get hired as a contractor.
