       @bazkie @infobeautiful Number of lines of code in all public GitHub repos hardly corresponds to the degree of hip & happening, or importance, of a language.Millions of novice coders all putting their Hello World style Python code on GitHub?

       @foone And the German electrified railways are now 1 2/3 kV third rail. Austria, however, uses 3 1/3 kV third rail. Switzerland is all diesel.

       @rechelon I hope people who like this toot realise that what Free Software (and Open Source in general) is based on is intellectual property laws, i.e copyright? What do you think the GPL for instance is?

       @nobody That for SJ you should enter your Interrail pass as a "travel card" is of course something that anybody with experience could have told you had you just asked in advance. Or read for instance seat61.com.

       @nobody If you read Swedish, there is the site https://trainfo.eu by @interrailinfosvenska . Less massive site than seat61.com, and specifically for #Interrail.

       @nina_kali_nina Imagine copying your carefully produced data and/or code from a printed listing by hand, in hexadecimal, onto a form, from which Bill or his assistant will then read it and type it into whatever device that did the programming of the PROM.(Why not send the listing itself to Bill?  Maybe the true hobbyist didn't use an assembler but just wrote machine code by hand.)One hopes the data format used contained some CRC or similar...

       @publius @nina_kali_nina Ah, you mean one of those where you draw lines in clearly limited elongated boxes, just wide enough to match a soft pencil?My mother, very much opposed to any change, used to have to fill in such for statistical purposes once a week or so, to be sent to the central administration of the government agency where she worked. Needless to say, she hated it. Also, listening to her, it sounded as if drawing those lines was the main point, not collecting good statistics...

       @bartholin Ouch. I am so scared the poor dog will jump and take a good bite of the ball, only to hit its teeth on the metal.

       @hn50 Fun! I am sure this will teach Apple and hurt their profits, when people buy their excellent and expensive AirPods but then use them for non-Apple phones and computers! Without this software, people would have just bought some other brand in-ear headphones instead! This will hurt that evil fruit company where they feel it! No, wait.

       @neauoire Are you suggesting the people at Sun who developed OpenBoot, which later became OpenFirmware, were idiots who didn't know computers?
