Nil Desperandum F.C. was a sporting club in Cork, Ireland. When it was founded it was mainly a rugby club. In 1888, after "some years" of playing rugby "Nils", as they were known, played their first Gaelic football game.[1][2]


Within a few years Nils was one of the strongest Gaelic Athletic Association clubs in Cork. It had a headquarters on Marlboro' Street and was largely represented by West Cork men who had come to the city to work.[3][4][5]


After winning the Cork Senior Football Championship in 1894, Nils went on to represent Cork in the controversial All-Ireland Senior Football Championship of 1894.


By the late 1920s the club was almost defunct and at the 1929 AGM the chairman "exhorted every member present both individually and collectively to strive earnestly for the welfare of the club whose motto was 'Nil Desperandum' and bring all possible honors to the club and to the county this year. He stressed the fact that Gaelic Football was in a deplorable state in the city at the present time, and teams of long connection with the GAA like Nils and Lees, found it almost impossible to put a single senior team on the field when a couple of years back they could put senior, intermediate and junior teams. There was certainly work for an organiser here to organise Gaelic football in Cork City and help to bring it back to the high position in the GAA which it held some years back."[6]

Displaying single band from multi-band raster using QGIS

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP 1 How can I extract a single band from multi-band raster in QGIS? I have an remote sensed image which has 6 bands (including NDVI band), I want to display each band separately, but have no idea how to do. I have seen some questions similar here but none worked for me. The original image (has 6 bands) is: I want to display the band 6 which should be like this: But I tried gdal_translate, and couldn't get the correct result.

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
