It’s definitely not required for ovens. You can just open the oven. Source: previous oven (1950s vintage) didn’t have one.

Pretty useful though, and pretty important on microwaves too since you can’t safely open the [microwave] oven while it’s running.

You may be interested in the concept of “third shift”

The same reason that McAfee did?

There’s a toilet in the living quarters. I don’t believe it flushes. Yet.

/srv is for “site-specific data which is served by this system.”

How to interpret that is up to for debate, but it seems clearly to be “user files” as opposed to “system files”. “Served” is a bit ambiguous but I don’t think it really requires that it be made accessible with a network service.

Basically I’d treat this as a location to mount/store your non-personal data such as music, videos, etc that should be accessible to anyone using your system. It could be network-exported as well but doesn’t have to be.

/net is for files imported from the network.

Yeah… I’m mostly saying that conditions around the world can change more abruptly than these kind of articles usually suggest.

Also the link says ”one third” which is definitely not “most”

There’s intel as well. Probably a few other small players. Is Matrox still around?

Because the instructions, “draw a brick here, a pipe there, here are the rules for how jumping works, etc.” are smaller than “these pixels are blue, that one is orange, that one is white, etc.”

I think it misses some point of how the phrases are used, their actual meaning. E.g. “per se” meaning “through itself” might be a literal translation but it doesn’t explain how to understand them or use them.

No. I just don’t kid myself, I know I’ll never read it.
