Just out of interest...speeds in Canada.

I have had an email from a relative in Canada and she has been considering upgrading to a 50mb connection with 400mb usage.
She currently has ONLY 250mb usage!!
What IS going on in this country??

  • Construction (just out of interest)

    After puzzling over this for some time I have concluded that construction must occur sort of in this order:
    memory allocated
    super called
    variables initialised
    constructor body called.
    however after seeing some results I am rather confused. From the following code sample (without arguing whether the code is 'correct') the results have confused me:
    abstract class A {
       C c = new C();
        public A() {
           configure();
           System.out.println("A.A()");
        public abstract void configure();
    public class B extends A {
       String myVar = "INIT";
       public B() {
         super();
         System.out.println("B.B()");
       public void configure() {
        System.out.println("B.configure()");
          myVar = "FOO";
    public static void main(String[] args){
         B b = new B();
         System.out.println("myVar: " + b.myVar);
    class C{
    C(){
      System.out.println("C.C()");
    }printing out
    C.C()
    B.configure()
    A.A()
    B.B()
    myVar: INITso we can assume that when the constructor of B is first entered myVar is already set to "INIT", configure then sets it to "FOO", but when the super constructor exits myVar is reset to "INIT" which seems to suggest that the variable is initialised twice.. giving us an order of:
    memory allocated
    variables initialised
    super called
    variables initialised
    constructor body called.
    Is this correct? And is there a reason for it being done like this? couldn't the JVM just get away with doing?
    memory allocated
    variables initialised
    super called
    constructor body called.
    these results have been observed in 1.4.1_02, is this likely to be different in different JVM's?
    Thanks for your time

    This is what happens:
    Whenever a new class instance is created, memory space is allocated for it with room for all the instance variables declared in the class type and all the instance variables declared in each superclass of the class type, including all the instance variables that may be hidden. If there is not sufficient space available to allocate memory for the object, then creation of the class instance completes abruptly with an OutOfMemoryError. Otherwise, all the instance variables in the new object, including those declared in superclasses, are initialized to their default values.
    Just before a reference to the newly created object is returned as the result, the indicated constructor is processed to initialize the new object using the following procedure:
    # Assign the arguments for the constructor to newly created parameter variables for this constructor invocation.
    # If this constructor begins with an explicit constructor invocation of another constructor in the same class (using this), then evaluate the arguments and process that constructor invocation recursively using these same five steps. If that constructor invocation completes abruptly, then this procedure completes abruptly for the same reason. Otherwise, continue with step 5.
    # If this constructor does not begin with an explicit constructor invocation of another constructor in the same class (using this) and is in a class other than Object, then this constructor will begin with an explicit or implicit invocation of a superclass constructor (using super). Evaluate the arguments and process that superclass constructor invocation recursively using these same five steps. If that constructor invocation completes abruptly, then this procedure completes abruptly for the same reason. Otherwise, continue with step 4.
    # Execute the instance variable initializers for this class, assigning their values to the corresponding instance variables, in the left-to-right order in which they appear textually in the source code for the class. If execution of any of these initializers results in an exception, then no further initializers are processed and this procedure completes abruptly with that same exception. Otherwise, continue with step 5. (In some early implementations, the compiler incorrectly omitted the code to initialize a field if the field initializer expression was a constant expression whose value was equal to the default initialization value for its type. This was a bug.)
    # Execute the rest of the body of this constructor. If that execution completes abruptly, then this procedure completes abruptly for the same reason. Otherwise, this procedure completes normally.

    Hi everyone
    I was curious about the platform the British Journal of Photography uses, so I thought I would post this.
    This is not about, moaning about DPS, as I much prefer the navigation of DPS to this platform, anyone recognise it?
    One thing that I do like about this though, is the press and hold to bring up the nav bars, I think that would be my biggest wish at the moment
    or at least that tapping a web view did not bring up the nav bars.
    Anyway just thought I post this.
    P.S dont want this thread to be the start of any moaning, if it does, I'll delete it :-)

    It's mag+ if I recall correctly

  • Photo zoom-in and out appear to speed up toward end.

    Greetings.
    I'm trying to figure out the cause for my zooms (in or out) aapearing to speed up toward the last third of a photo (clip) in FCE 3.5.1
    First I had to ask if this is an illusion, but I don't think so.
    I drag a photo to the time line. It's total running time is around 15 seconds. I double click the photo, get to motion tab, line up my zoom start in canvas and then timeline, mark with key, adjust for zoom out, repeat.
    As far as I can tell, there is no Speed setting in the Motion tab that might get affected.
    Is it just me, or has anyone had and solved this problem?
    Thanks.
    Jonathan

    Tom suggests you to smooth the keyframe as follows: in the graph area to the right of the Motion controls (I mean in the Motion tab of the FCE viewer..) you can see the small diamonds of the 2 keyframes you defined for Scale. Right click (or ctrl click) the small diamond and you may to select the Smooth command from the contextual menu.
    As a result of the Smooth command you get a new handle, a small blue bullet, for each keyframe that you can drag up, down, right or left to modify the graph curve for that keyframe. After each change, check the effect in the canvas to see what you prefer.
    For additional precision in dragging the new handles, you may enlarge the graph area both horizontally, by making the viewer window larger, and vertically by dragging down the double line just below the Scale graph.

  • Just out of inter

    Hi i am just plainly asking out of interest, when u format your player does it take the firmware off it's like so u cant use the player or does it just take the information of your player (mp3s and stuff like pictures or whatever?).
    thanks in advance
    own: muvo^2 fm

    When you format it only gets rid of data and music, not the firmware. The Reload OS option gets rid of the firmware

    Hi Markus,
    I don't think ,there is any report which can help to get the serial no of AP.
    Inventory( Report >Report Launch Pad> Inventory)  is the ONLY report which gave the below information but NOT the serial no .
    Inventory
    This report allows you to generate inventory-related information for  controllers, access points, and MSEs managed by Prime Infrastructure.  This information includes hardware type and distribution, software  distribution, CDP information, and other statistics.
    *** If anyone knows more deatils on this ,please share with us ***

  • Problem: slow connection. I have an iMac (2007) running on Mac OS X 10.6.8. I just had my internet speed increased from 1 to 3 Mbps but my connection slowed down considerably. Do I have to change any setting?

    Problem: slow connection. I have an iMac (2007) running on Mac OS X 10.6.8. I just had my internet speed increased from 1 to 3 Mbps but my connection slowed down considerably. Do I have to change any setting on the computer, and how?

    One possibility is that you may need to "Upgrade" your Cable /DSL Modem if you have an older unit.  ISP's that provide your Internet service in recent years have been switching over from DOCSIS 2.1 version Modems to DOCSIS 3.0 version Modems, which handle the new higher data streaming speeds the ISP's are offering.  I would suggest you call your ISP's Technical Support and inquire about this possibility.

  • Just out of curiosity....

    So just out of curiosity, I was wondering if it was possible to increase the screen resolution on a 20" screen beyond 1680 x 1050. Anyone know?

    No, that would not be possible, because the maximum resolution on an LCD screen is constrained by the fixed size of the pixels. You can't make the pixels smaller.

  • My iPod classic accidentally went through the washer. I put it in rice and now it will turn on but it just shows a red X. Am I just out of luck?

    My iPod classic accidentally went through the washer. I put it in rice for about two weeks. It will now turn on but only shows me a red X. I plugged it into the wall but I am afraid to plug it into my computer. I don't know if that will have an adverse affects on my computer. Am I just out of luck on this one or is there any way this is salvageable?

    Rice is a weak drying agent. You can buy stronger desiccant's that will do a better job of drying out the iPod. But please use caution, these desiccant's can be poisonous, so use caution.
    Considering the very high value of an iPod classic I would make every attempt to repair it.  One example is shown below, but there are many types available.

    Use iTunes on your computer.  With the iPad connected, sign into your Apple account and check for updates.
    Doing this should straighten out the problem.
