    It seems it is a product of modern western style culture. Move away from family for independence, spend best days of life slogging away to live paycheck to paycheck.

    I worked with a few filipinos that immigrates to Canada. While the believe Canada is a good place to live, they mention the lonely culture here. They said in the Phillapines every weekend, or sometines day, was a party with friends or family. They always made up a party to celebrate something.

    I think we have forgotten that communty village living is what humans evovled to, and yearn.

    Another Filipino said canada is great, but everything needs money. Housing is expensive, food is expensive, cars, and all the bills. He said back home we live more simple, no need for a heating bill because of climate, no need for a water bill. If I want water I drill a hole in the ground. So life is about living not earning

    Starts with NO wildlife will kill you, describes all the ones that can ;)

    It is like Canada, we have Bears, Wolves, Moose and Polar Bears, etc.

    Stay out of their way and you will be fine, they aren’t actively scouting homes to kill people.


  • My guess is not a whole lot to the average user, but it would allow for things to still respond when other things have bogged down resources. I am assuming real world applications would be industry like a machine safery stop should always have a quick turn around, and not be delayed by harddrive writes. But may like how they write special OS code for spacecraft where sending and receiving instructions on board has special states and if response isn’t given in timely manner the system can recognize, so malfunctions are prevented. There was an artivle/podcast somewhere abouy how this all had to work in realtime and not be queued waiting


  • Yeah being locked into an application sucks. I was lucky that the Proprietary CAD package we run had a linux version. Sadly Siemens decided linux share was low so dropped the GUI version of it, but left us cli version for batch processing work, so back to Windows to be on latest release.
