Color me mystified. Why would you map the verb of an English sentence to anything but a function or method in a computer language expression?

Neither Forth nor I are actions.

Yeah, “unlimited” … as many as the allocated bandwidth will allow. But since the SMS is squeezed in between voice that is a very limited resource.

Because SMS is literally re-using bits dedicated to confirming that your cell phone is available for voice connections. There is a designed-in priority that has no room for expansion (since voice has priority in that scheme). To make your SMS connection look like it can handle stuff like photos, it uses the data connection as a side-band (“MMS”) and sometimes that fiction falls apart and the photos don’t come through with the sms it was supposed to be linked up with.

… or produce roadside banter in sell aisles?

See a psychiatrist. You already have root on these systems… if you are truly a split personality then fences aren’t going to prevent your other self from doing whatever they want.

This is just a practice run shot across the bow for requiring that only individuals who have sworn allegiance to Der Fuhrer are given access.

Cashiers remove them so they can be reused.

From the beginning of computing there has been a problem with bootstrapping knowledge… the person creating a tool gives it a name, and describes it, but knowing that someone solved the problem you have and what the name of that tool was always a challenge.

But that is nothing new… you posted in English but if you were to learn a different language you would have a very similar problem, and one of the most universal strategies for making that transition is to drill on vocabulary. Once you have built a small vocabulary then you can expand it using a dictionary.

The real message behind someone saying RTFM is that there are so many educational and search resources now that asking some rando on the Internet to rewrite a Howto on the fly is lazy. Simply typing the exact same question into Google will bring up a kickstarter set of vocabulary and resources. If you actually do this your question will often answer itself, and if it doesn’t and you start by pointing out why your efforts failed to help you with your specific problem and use the vocabulary (at least briefly) that your research turned up to guide the reader toward where your problem is, you should get less RTFM responses.

You must be off by a decade. Your reference mentions no OS and Unic was developed around 1970.

Oh, right, right, right… that makes sense… right? right? or maybe it is just another truckload of fetid bullshit. now that makes more sense.

Only if a) you have enough money to pay lawyers to defend your rights, and b) the judge happens to not be a Trump follower.

If you are invested in Windows software… don’t run Linux. Being able to run Windows software is like a “patch” to get you by until you find a Linux equivalent. Pretending you can have your cake and eat it too will just leave you disappointed.

Linux has amazing software… but in most cases it feels very different from Windows. If you learn why it is different then you may start to appreciate Linux for what it gives you rather than what it takes from you.

How in the world did they manage that? Did they implement it internally as a TCP API and expose it?

IANAL … but if you do use it, copy it to your own server so all those accesses don’t suck up the bandwidth of the person you copied it from.

And the smoke. When you let the smoke out it stops working.

Batteries have both electron capacity (cumulative) and current capacity (rate) ratings. The chemistry and size determine how many electrons (aka Amperes times hours) can be stored, and the conductor sizes (including within the cells) determine how quickly it can be charged or discharged in sustained operation (without permanent damage).

A car battery can be shorted with a screwdriver and discharged at a high current, but only for a short time without damage to the cells. A 100Ah car battery can supply rated current for roughly twice as long as a 50Ah battery.

Sometimes people call these ratings energy and power ratings by multiplying each by rated voltage, but the voltage does vary with charge state and rate of current flow so those “ratings” are rather approximate.

“power is only related to voltage” is nonsense. Current and voltage contribute equally to power (P=IVpf, but I am not going to discuss power factor here).

The reason current is less frequently mentioned is that our electric power system supplies power (current and voltage) to many users and the wiring for giving power to many locations is simpler and more reliable when we try to keep voltage relatively constant and let the power using devices demand just as much current as they need to extract the power they need. This means current values can vary wildly between circuits, so it is not very informative to talk about current unless you know a lot about what is hooked up and consuming power nearby. The circuit that supplies the lights uses much less current than the one that supplies the air conditioner (when it is on) but there are often many lights on a single circuit so the current is quite different in different segments of wire even while the voltage only varies a but in each circuit.

You could devise a wiring system that held current constant by running the current in a loop through all the consuming devices, but like Christmas tree lights if any load disconnected then all the loads would stop receiving power, which would make it very unreliable.

Pihole comes with DHCP disabled by default for this reason. But you still have to get the router to hand off the Pihole IP as DNS server to all dynamic IP devices.

DHCP != DNS. DHCP allows you to mix pseudo-static IP addresses with dynamic IP addresses on your LAN, while DNS looks up IP addresses based on names. DHCP, or the equivalent IP address management GUI, is innocuous… you probably want to use it to specify what static IP you want the Pi to have… but you also need to tell your router DHCP to inform your in-LAN devices that the DNS server they should use is that same static IP when it hands out their assigned IP address.
