#define __NR_brk                12


now THIS is a strange syscall. it's always a good sign when the notes section advises you not to use a function, lol. if you haven't read any of the other man pages yet, go read this one: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/brk.2.html
>the actual Linux system call returns the new program break on success.
>On failure, the system call returns the current break.
such a bizarre api. there's lots of bookkeeping and hoops required if you dare to use this syscall for your allocator. but it's pretty neat to use in toy examples. it requires a very nonstandard approach

>Whats un-unixy about it?
UNIX treats files as "streams" but mmap makes a distinction between real files (on disk) and UNIX "files."

>and as is the Unix way, everything is a file, including generic uninitialized memory.
That's not the UNIX way at all. "Everything is a file" is a bastardization of "everything is an object" which was the new innovation of the 70s and 80s. The number 1 is an object in "everything is an object" because "everything" really means "everything" but in UNIX not everything is a file. If "everything was a file" the same way "everything is an object" then each character in this post would be a "file" and all the buttons and windows would be "files" but that's not how UNIX works. Actually JavaScript and web browsers are based on the everything is an object principle too.

>UNIX people did their usual trick of saying it's bad
You post this in every thread and I still don't buy it. Can you find an actual quote of them saying it's bad? AFAIK they didn't have it because of hardware constraints, Multics was designed for (and only ran on) much fancier machines than early Unix.
Post your source or stop claiming this.

>>107875685
Ritchie's Unix retrospective paper credits Multics's stream I/O. I don't think "everything is an object" ever came into it, my best guess about the influence is "everything is a stream" (Multics also provided this at a high level) -> "everything is a fd" (easier if you do raw syscalls all the time) -> "everything is a file".

#define __NR_rt_sigaction        13

https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/sigaction.2.html

you can tell, just by looking at the length of the man page, that this is a complicated one. go ahead and read https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/signal.7.html as well, to get yourself up to speed, if you're not already familiar. god, this topic is so complex, i'm really not even sure what to put in this blurb. there is certainly a lot of room for discussion of signals in general, so maybe we'll go with that.
oh, i guess this part is also interesting
>The new system call takes a fourth argument, size_t sigsetsize, which specifies the size in bytes of the signal sets in act.sa_mask and oldact.sa_mask
because they kept fucking themselves over by hardcoding things, over time the linux kernel developers started making more of their syscalls take a variable input (often via a pointer to a struct) alongside its expected size. clever optimization on their end

I just want to take this W10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021 (21H2) ISO, run it's setup, and then have it on my system.

I am having a heck of a time, been trying for several days. I feel like I have tried everything a few times. I've already done all the early search engine results, even stooped to following freakin videos today. I think the first thing I did was follow whatever is on the /fwt/ OP but those didn't work. I know I tried registry editing a few different ways. Also running the ISO's setup successfully but then it asks for a product key, so I MAS but that does nothing because MAS thinks I still have my original version so tells me "lol you already have a key for your original one dumbass". I am honestly getting pretty lost by following so many different guides and even trying to mix methods, and feeling pretty worn out by failing so many times.
Anybody have any guidance?

People made some very cool content with Flash, and unfortunately most of it is dead and buried now that Flash is dead. And Flash content had a pretty particular feel to it. You could tell when a game was made with Flash because of the artstyle and how it plays. Most "HTML5" games are just automatic ports from engines like Unity and Unreal.

>they could've easily fixed everything. but they didn't and i have no idea why.
I remember when Adobe was releasing a new security patch every single day to try and monkey patch the security holes in flash, but the problems were too fundamental and basically (as far as I recall) they would've had to redesign Flash from the ground up to make it more secure.
