    electricity (optional)

    I don’t think that anyone’s yet booted a Linux kernel on a purely-mechanical computer yet.

      If you make a redstone PC and don’t consider the requirements to run Minecraft… Probably (in-world it wouldn’t be using electricity)

      Technically possible. How large would such a machine be though…

        Since you need 16 billion crabs to run Doom, I suspect easier than you think

        It wouldn’t need to be super large necessarily. It could just be very very slow.

        Theoretically, an immortal person with many many stones that follows instructions very clearly could “emulate” (be) a computer, right?

  • Don’t get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.

  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • Don’t come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
4. No recent reposts

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures

We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.

  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.

 

Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don’t understand or can’t verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community – even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don’t remove France.
