Bits and PCs - a Computers and Tech Miscellany
We don't seem to have a miscellany thread related to tech although we have miscellaneous other miscellany threads apart from the miscellany thread.
So here it is.

Re: Bits and PCs - a Computers and Tech Miscellany
The miscellaneous finding I wanted to post is this:
The http protocol (you know, the one that's the backbone of the web, famous for 404 errors  ) has a separate error code for Unavailable For Legal Reasons. The protocol equivalent of "this video is not available in your country".
The error code is 451.
HTTP 451 - Wikipedia

Is this where I complain about how slow my Windows 10 laptop is compared to my Windows 10 Alienware computer?

I think that the main reason why I never adopted Pyhton as a scripting language is that I can never, ever type it correctly (including in this sentence.  ).

$ pyhton
No command 'pyhton' found, did you mean:
Command 'python' from package 'python-minimal' (main)

Re: Bits and PCs - a Computers and Tech Miscellany
I finally bought a PC this year. The last one I bought was in 2000. On that one, at least I had a system software disk to load if my software ate itself.
Now, don't have a clue what to do when my software gets stuffed.
