1. The UNIX stream editor.

2. A 6502 instruction that clears the D (decimal mode) flag. Use this before an ADC or SBC to get binary-coded decimal arithmetic (if your 6502 version supports it).

• Function: 1 => D
• Updates flags: . . . . D . . .
• Opcode number: impl $F8

This instruction works whether or not the particular 6502 model actually implements decimal mode ADC and SBC. (For instance, the 2A03 lacks it.)

As opposed to: CLD

The SED was founded in April 1946 in the SBZ (Soviet Occupied Zone) by the merge of the communist KPD and the social democratic SPD. Both parties did not want this merge ,but they were forced to by the Soviets. In the beginning both parties were equally strong, but till 1955 the party was formed in to a party after Soviet model.
In the DDR(established 1949) the SED was the only real political force, as elections were manipulated and members of other parties (the so-called Blockparteien) were suppressed. The DDR was actually reigned by the institutions of the DDR. These were the Zentralkomitee (ZK), which was elected by the party convention and its organs the Politbüro and the Secretary (led by the General-Secretary, which were Walter Ulbricht (1950–1971), Erich Honecker (1971–1989) and Egon Krenz (1989).)
As the DDR broke down in 1989, the SED renamed itself, first into SED-PDS and later into PDS and elected Gregor Gysi as the new party leader.

... and you thought ed was dead ...

Sed is a great tool used to transform data from one form into another. It uses regular expressions to perform operations on text. Unlike ed, it is pretty much non-interactive and makes only one pass over its data. However, it is very useful in shell scripts and makefiles to do lots of tasks, such as delete already-compiled files a-la make clean, or to take a winamp playlist, and extract paths from it. Sed can be great for pre-formatting everything2 posts! For example, use the command:

sed 's/</\&lt;/g;s/>/\&gt;/g;s/\[/\&#91;/g;s/\]/\&#93;/g;' -

to pipe from stdin to stdout a file containing <s and ]s into its e2-friendly HTML-escaped equivalents. This technique is especially handy in working with indefinite or repeated data, as it does not depend on the input file being exactly the same each time, and can be a heck of a lot faster than editing by hand.

It stands for Surface-conduction Electron-Emitter Display. Canon INC are the innovators of this display technology, they first began SED research in 1986. With advancements over time, they were able to conquer a milestone a historical turning point for television industry; one that is comparable to the initial introduction of CRT based televisions.

SED Panels will be able to deliver amazingly clear and vivid pictures with insane contrast ratios (up to 100,000:1) this is due to their light-beaming technology, which is somewhat similar to that of old-school Cathode-Ray Tube TV’s. They’re also thinner and have less power consumption compared to other displays currently available. The screen provides high brightness, similar to CRTs, but in a flat-panel form factor similar to plasmas.

SED is a promising new technology, but it’s actually more of a mixture of old and new technologies. It takes all the conventional characteristics of a CRT television and applies them a very thin flat television set. Just like a CRT, it uses a screen coated with phosphors. The phosphors emit light when they're hit by electrons which are accelerated by a voltage in the electron gun. A CRT usually does this with an electron gun that quickly moves the electron beams back and forth to paint a picture onto a screen. Unlike a CRT, which uses a single gun for this purpose, an SED display uses millions of very tiny micro-emitters. These are called surface-conduction electron emitters (SCEs). These microscopic emitters consist of a carbon layer that connects to a cathode and anode layer. When 10 Volts are applied to an SCE, the electrons excite the phosphor particles, those pixels will glow red, blue or green. Thanks to the persistence of vision...your brain combines these pixels of color to form a picture.

One of the very nice advantages about SED is that their screen sizes are not limited....as long as the display is able to maintain the integrity of the flat panel glass so that its strong enough to withstand the vacuum pressure that exists inside the set, its possible to increase the size to well over one hundred inches.
