And the rest is standard UI conventions. Some of which have been in place since the 90’s.

Old Windows UX guideline documents for those who may be curious.

Or the end key which goes to the end of a any line in any text editor in windows

Or the router, in another state, and the person with access to the closet/server room knows how to push a few buttons at best.

That happens once… and you get misconfigophobia for life.

And utilities for identify the eventual duplicates to save space (while still ensuring you don’t have only 1 copy that can be corrupted)

Like anything else it’s always trade offs.

If I recall correctly it’s important to be running ECC memory right?

Otherwise corrupter bites/data can cause file system issues or loss.

Imagine, if you will. A world where string reverse changes the character codes of the string.

What beauty, what wonder would such a world have?

Destruction and despair. Developers unsure why their programs don’t respond correctly. Ships run aground on islands already overcrowded with those who were shipwrecked before. Signal antennas pointed towards the sun with it’s constant noise. Spacecraft whose exhaust melt to slag populated cities as people briefly scream their final terrors of pain and suffering.

This, is a world we should not want to live in. A world you can only find, in the Twilight Zone.

Even Microsoft did. Their Office Application libraries are phenomenal.

Scriptable object based libraries that work and do so cross platform. It’s a thing of beauty and I’ve never seen MS ever do anything even remotely like it again.

Asp MVC. Nope, different.

Windows code API’s. Nope, different.

But office… Excel.Sheets etc. [chef’s kiss]

It’s true. And it’s worse since people worry about the security of the OS but download large batches of suspect apps and games.

Media and games. Only loaded and run when I’m using them.

Package dependencies? How much of that is loading at runtime? How many security holes and exploits is some sub, sub, sub package going to introduce?

BWILA’s!

Possible something on your motherboard has PCIe lanes that are dedicated to GPU when it’s slotted, otherwise they can be used for other devices?

For example here’s a post about m.2 slots that, when used, affect the PCI on a particular board. May be worth checking your boards manual to see if there’s something similar.

https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/questions-about-a-mb-im-looking-at-asrock-z790-pg-riptide.3787003/

The answer not only seemed a HUGE disappointment, but a bit baffling. The pdf manual says if you occupy that 5th m.2 slot, which is the Gen 5 one, the Pci-E 1 slot is automatically downgraded to 8x. This I thought would be unacceptable if running a behemoth like the RTX 4090 I eventually plan to get, as it requires a lot of power and bandwidth.

It’s a joke

Ok. I’ve downloaded, tar and gunzipped the files for it.

Then did a make build and then make install. Now my system won’t start. What do I do?

I guess the trouble is that you don’t want to read the volumes where the db files are because they’re not guaranteed to be consistent at a given point in time right?

Does the given engine support a backup method/utility that can be used to copy files to some volume on a set schedule?

for(i=0;i<100;i++){
    console.log("Yep")
}

console.log("uh-huh")

eval('alert("Yep")')

I assume they’re past some operational limit. But as long as you have redundancy that’s a risk I’d take for the capacity

I know it’s a joke but I prefer the tab option. It’s easy to convert tabs to any particular spacing or code point width. It can also vary, if wanted, based on terminal or editor type.

People with worse eyesight can have a wider indentation while those who choose can opt for something more compact

Ahh. It’s a boutique link that points to Amazon Digital Purchase of Rick Astleys Never Gonna Give You Up.

E.g. my post was a red herring

Did you look at the book I linked?
