@BaroqueInMind @BrikoX I'm against the death penalty, because I don't think that the state should have the right to end a person's life.
Even in countries with a more liberal legal system (like Germany, where I live), there is the possibility that the judge decides that a person is a danger to the community even after the end of their penalty. It is called "life imprisonment followed by preventive detention".
@igalmarino In my childhood our remote worked by emitting electronically generated ultrasonic sounds. It looked like that one: kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/tel…
@lukstru Some other story that really happened. A company moved to another place, so step by step they located and moved the servers in the server room from the old to the new location. In the end there was a single server left in the server room. They didn't knew the purpose and were sure that they needn't that server - and they were right. Several years ago that company belonged to another company in the same area. At one point in time the company had been sold. That server belonged to the old company and still served a critical purpose for them.
@lukstru At the end of the 90s our company had to patch and restart all servers of our customers to make the server software Y2K safe. One colleague travelled from customer to customer. At one customer he said: "I have to patch your server". The answer: "What is a server? We don't have something like that."
The colleague then traced the network cable through the workshop to a huge pile of wood scrap. that filled a part of the room. They had to remove that scrap for quite some time and then found the server there. The Novell server had an uptime of several years.
@AgreeableLandscape @bilb I must confess: I like PHP.
