A good number do, but you won’t hear anything during normal operation. If your vomputer has ever beeped at you when you try to turn it on at 0% battery, accessed the bios, etc., there’s a good chance that was the motherboard speaker.

Neat!

But if we hide the complexity, surely we won’t ever have to deal with it! /s

Funnily enough I do use NixOS for my server! It’s not quite what I was describing but it does allow me to host easily.

Someday I hope we have a server technology that’s platform-agnostic and you can just add things like “Minecraft Server” or “Email Server” to a list and it’ll install, configure, and host everything in the list with a sensible default config. I imagine you could make the technology fairly easily, although keeping up with new services, versions, security updates, etc. would be quite the hassle. But that’s what collaboration is for!

WOOOOO YEAH BABY

And the only thing more important than readability is whether or not the code does what it’s supposed to do.

Isn’t that exactly what Rust is supposed to be good at

This would somehow be worse than JS

It’s in the picture, just so far to the top-right that it’s offscreen

Yeah, I have Featherserver for my server, Featherbeast for my laptop (named because it has decent specs), and Featherphone for my phone.

How? Are you digging around in windows internals trying to do stuff? I mean if so you’d be better off with Linux anyways, but I’m curious how this happens.

Granted, the rolling release aspect means inevitably you’re gonna get a borked update that you have to revert, so that’s a stumbling point for a complete newbie. It’s not like that doesn’t sometimes happen on other distros though - or even Windows.

People post things like this constantly and I feel like I’m living on a different planet. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a Windows install needing to be reverted through no fault of the user.

I am curious how you’d deal with the ambiguity of contractions vs. ending single quotes. I guess that character between letters can be assumed to be part of the word, but not if it’s between a letter and a space, for example. If you ignore contractions, hyphenated words, and accented characters, you could just match on /[a-zA-Z]+/.

tsni feels so wrong 😭

JS gets us
