Uh yeah, I’m pretty sure the discharge can stop your heart if you grab it in precisely wrong manner. Typical defibrillator uses like 50 times less energy, but with a higher voltage.

A capacitor of 1 farad at standard American 120 volts has the energy between 7.62×54 and .50 BMG, and will discharge just as violently.

Your window needs to get the list of all other windows, find the one directly below it, and send a mouse click programmatically, using something like accessibility API.
Are you writing a keylogger?

You could build a Debian installation with user-defined list of packages since way back in 2010. It’s just a bit too technical for an average spreadsheet cowboy who decided to ditch M$ Losedows.

Also, Docker does exactly what you describe, just inside the VM. There’s a whole ass new position for Dockerscript coders, called devops or something. I think there should be an easy way to install Docker image onto the real hardware with no Docker inbetween too, this question deserves researching.

Electron was discovered in 1897. If you own a textbook on chemistry which is older than that, put it up on Ebay in the antiques category.

I live in an apartment building. The liquor store is on the ground floor.

The ingenuity of this command is that /dev/nul does not exist, the correct path is /dev/null, however the command executes without error and creates a symlink to a non-existing path.
The only thing missing is sudo.

Eh, why? KDE and Gnome work perfectly fine installed in parallel, at least on Debian, no VM needed. You can throw in XFCE and MATE for a good measure.

mcedit, because I’m not nerdy enough for vim.

Ubintu was relevant ten years ago, when they packaged proprietary drivers which were absent from other distributions.

Nowadays you just use Debian and don’t bother with Canonical shit.

Because you won’t determine the type of NAT during hole punching. This requires the client sending two UDP packets to two different IP addresses, then comparing their source addresses on the server.

Normally yes, you can just assume that two clients you are trying to connect both have port restricted cone NAT, and run the hole punching algorithm, and if the connection fails after ten seconds, show message to the users ‘Error 418: your router is a teapot’.

The one use case is running STUN/TURN server for NAT hole punching, that requires two separate servers, or one server with two IP addresses. You will only need that to run masterserver for games that support hole punching, or to run VoIP telephony / teleconference server.

Another use case is reliability, when your server is connected to several network providers, it will keep working if one of them has an outage, and will naturally have a different IP address for each network link. But your VPS does not have several network links, otherwise they would advertize that in bold red letters.

If you want to run Linux on a toaster with 16 MB flash, your best option is probably OpenWRT.
If you are running it on a regular PC, just turn off the monitor and plug out the speakers I guess. Recompiling Linux kernel looks too much like a hassle, you’ll need to disable specific device drivers to deactivate videocard and soundcard but keep the keyboard running. Or boot into a recovery mode, the OS will disable everything except for the terminal, and you’ll need to enable networking using shell commands.

How long until we get self-insert AI porn?

It flies, so I don’t get the joke. I’m an embedded developer BTW.

It depends on how rich you are. CEOs have their own, reduced edition of the law.

Nope, Linux kernel used in that tech demo is for RISC-V architecture
