But 0x80 is how you’d normally express 128 as hex. So it’s relevant. But deliberately confusing.

And hopefully you never will

It was IBM’s binary to character transform. DB2 can still use it if you configure it to do so. Or was at least as of the version from 1998 that I had to replace.

I would have pegged EBCDIC for that, but ok

I sincerely hope that if they come up with a 128bit instruction set they call it “x80” to maintain backwards compatibility with previous set names and be deliberately confusing to everyone.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Is that why bengay tastes like balls?

I dunno, wlxaa392a001f7d has a nice ring to it

I would subscribe to Cthulhu’s OnlyFhtagns.

I punched all the holes, is this right?

OK, using wine. Now I’m drunk. What next

I’ll show you how to brûlée an ass!

Shitty job or not, it pays my mortgage and has a pension. Ten more years… Just ten more…

Yup. Your body is hardcore. Too hardcore for itself, even.

This too. And if you must use an antipyretic, supplement with external insulation or heat.

I’ve found that arch is often an easier time than fedora if you want “up-to-date” Linux. Fedora has its heart in the right place, but its pathological adherence to open source makes it sometimes a very difficult time for certain classes of new things.

But as I have opinions as to my lawn and your location relative to it, Debian is more often fine for my needs. It’s my daily driver on pretty much everything at work and at home, with the exception of a few arch and fedora systems in my home lab.

Instructions unclear; installed Linux and now some of the applications I need for work don’t run. Please send help.
