alphanumeric adj. Consisting of letters or digits, or both, and sometimes including control characters, space characters, and other special characters. See also ASCII, character set, EBCDIC.
alphanumeric display n. Electronic display on a wireless phone, pager, or handheld device capable of showing both text and numbers.
obviously this thread is an exception to that
alphanumeric messaging n. Ability to receive messages containing text and numbers on a pager or digital wireless phone. Also known as short message service (SMS).
alphanumeric sort n. A method of sorting data, such as a set of records, that typically uses the following order: punctuation marks, numerals, alphabetic characters (with capitals preceding lowercase letters), and any remaining symbols.
alpha test n. The process of user testing that is carried out on a piece of alpha software.
Altair 8800 n. A small computer introduced in 1975 by Micro Instrumentation Telemetry Systems (MITS) of New Mexico and sold primarily in kit form. The Altair was based on the 8-bit Intel 8080 microprocessor, had 256 bytes of random access memory, received input through a bank of switches on the front panel, and displayed output via a row of light-emitting diodes. Although it was short-lived, the Altair is considered the first successful personal computer, which was then called a home computer.
alternate circuit-switched voice/circuit-switched data n. A configuration option for ISDN B (bearer) channels that enables the digital transmission of either voice or data communications between two users for the duration of a call. Acronym: CSV/CSD. See also B channel, circuit-switched data, circuit-switched voice, ISDN.
alternating current n. Electric current that reverses its direction of flow (polarity) periodically according to a frequency measured in hertz, or cycles per second. Acronym: AC. Compare direct current.
@Arjun42 @MMzF any weekend plans?
Alt key n. A key included on PC and other standard keyboards that is used in conjunction with another key to produce some special feature or function and is typically marked with the letters Alt.
alt. newsgroups n. Internet newsgroups that are part of the alt. (“alternative”) hierarchy and have the prefix alt. Unlike the seven Usenet newsgroup hierarchies (comp., misc., news., rec., sci., soc., talk.) that require formal votes among users in the hierarchy before official newsgroups can be established, anybody can create an alt. newsgroup. Therefore, newsgroups devoted to discussions of obscure or bizarre topics are generally part of the alt. hierarchy.
always on n. An Internet connection that is maintained continuously, whether or not the computer user is on line. Always-on connections provide convenience to users who don’t need to dial in or log on to access the Internet, but also provide more opportunities for hackers to attempt to access the system or use the computer to spread malicious programs.
AMD-K6 n. Family of x86-compatible processors introduced by Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) in 1997. Comparable in performance to the Intel Pentium II, the AMD-K6 family is composed of Windows-compatible processors with MMX support that run 32-bit programs. They have 8.8 million transistors, include 64-KB (AMD-K6) L1 caches for faster execution, and are based on a technology known as RISC86 that converts x86 program instructions into RISC operations for execution. The AMD-K6 family ranges in speed from 166 to over 500 MHz.
AMI BIOS n. A ROM BIOS developed and marketed by American Megatrends, Inc. (AMI), for use in IBM-compatible computers. A popular feature is that its configuration software is stored in the ROM chip along with the BIOS routines, so the user does not need a separate configuration disk to modify system settings, such as amount of memory installed and number and types of disk drives.
Amiga n. An operating system owned by Amiga, Inc. The Amiga model of desktop computer, which featured the Amiga operating system, was introduced by Commodore in 1985. The Amiga was especially strong in its ability to support sound and video, which made it popular among broadcast and multimedia producers, but it was overshadowed by the IBM Personal Computer (and its clones) and the Apple Macintosh. The ownership of the Amiga design has been through the hands of several companies in the United States and Germany.
oops I goofed this one. apologies.
I hope everyone has a great weekend!!
amplitude n. A measure of the strength of a signal, such as sound or voltage, determined by the distance from the baseline to the peak of the waveform.
People generally have many character facets, seldom do we see all of them. I've learned over time not to judge people I meet casually based on the single facet or two that they may show me in a limited time. Luckily it's still a free society where truth is subjective so you can make all the judgements you wish. I just leave it at that.
indeed. and often those limited interactions have so very little bearing on our life. and therefore we shouldn't allow them to have more impact than they deserve.
@FrankZ is all going well? Did I miss anything today? I was last on 195 before I had to leave for most of the day
still waiting for aliexpress and other providers...
waiting and waiting
A few things i can mention:
Few days back i tested nginx, caddy, ols, apache according to my use cases, a few test one of them: test each of them with their own way of site protection like module in nginx or few projects on github for them..
Another fun stuff i do is for example testing product which was updated till python 3.10 i'll test it with .12 & alpha 13 if that fails i try to debug (this way i learn new stuff while debugging and talking to community on different platforms) .
Amiga games are amazing
