What do you turn on first: your monitor or computer?
I turn on my monitor first.

Why? Electricity is valuable.

The monitor is the first thing on and usually the last thing off.

I wish my monitor shut off instead of going into sleep mode. I hate having to get out of bed to shut it off because of the stupid light.

I live in a place where thunderstorms are common and electronics do get killed sometimes, so I physically unplug everything from the walls before I go to sleep. If I don't, I have to get out of bed when I hear thunder at night or in the morning.

How to make cheap pcb?

2 guest@cc 1969-12-31T17:00:00
Etching. If you can't be bothered and/or afford the equipment, your only real choices are finding out if there's a nearby hackerspace with the necessary tools or get it made in China.

Or just suck it up and have fun with veroboards.

What interpreted languages are you using? What compiled languages are you using?
Right now I only know some languages very related to Unix, like C, csh, sh, and other tools capable of scripting.

Interesting.
Whenever looking up Go I always find this article:

Yes. I'd say Go is more of a replacement for Python (type safe, compiled, concurrent, faster, drastically better syntax, etc) or server-side JS (same reasons). Anyone saying it's competing with C/C++ or Rust is lying.

Actually I should have said statically typed instead of type safe. Sorry!

What text editor do you use? I typically use nvi (a vi clone) but I recently installed teco, just for fun. I've also used ed and ex in the past, to get acquainted with them.
emacs hurts my hands.

There are no scans of the instructor's manual to SICP, but I don't know if I should read SICP without the instructor's manual.

./configure files are 30k lines long and contain shit like this:

# test EBCDIC or ASCII
case `echo X|tr X '\101'` in
A) # ASCII based system
# \n is not interpreted correctly by Solaris 8 /usr/ucb/tr

They think it's okay because they use a GNU operating system like GNU/Linux, on which autoshit works. It doesn't work on many other OSes.

Is RISC-V exciting? It would excite me, except for that I think capitalism won't allow it to succeed. Open-source hardware is a beautiful thing that should succeed.
I hope to read some of the specs when they're more finalised.

neovim accepts mouse input to move cursor and highlight text.
I don't know if I should be happy or disturbed by this.

I didn't know I could click on the terminal.

Get a vps for 2$/year and install vpn on it yourself. You can even use scripts like https://github.com/Nyr/openvpn-install if you're lazy. Don't be cheap.

Admin here. If you want it I can email it to you. I still just don't feel like uploading it to anything like github yet. There's still some bugs and I think the code should be cleaned up quite a bit first before doing that.

I rather like this board script and would like to see if there's anything I could contribute, that's why I'm asking.
I'd suggest uploading the source to a git host of sorts, people interested in helping development could then debug and clean the code up themselves. It'd lift some burden off your shoulders in a way. Though, that's your choice.

I've left my email address in any case.

What newsgroups are you subscribed to?
By news, I obviously mean Usenet.
»
2 guest@cc 1969-12-31T17:00:00
Never used Usenet. Every time I thought about starting it seemed like a lot to get into and I'd get the vibe that it was dying, so I'd just decide to wait for something new to take its place. If I'd known it would still be around after all this time I would have started over 15yrs ago.

If Alt Suicide Holiday is still up, I'd like to read that
Didn't some weird thing happen and it got integrated with Google Groups?

Usenet isn't centralised, google groups affects nothing. a.s.h is still up but alt.suicide.methods is more active now.
