Why did you editorialise the title?

On linux on an esp32? Doubtful that would even work.

There have been esp32 ports of doom for a decade though. Here's a current one: https://github.com/AmirhoseinMasoumi/ESP32-DOOM

I can't find it now, but someone ported nommu linux to those cortex-m3 "bluepill" development boards that could be bought for ~$2 (they were built wrong and liquidated for a massive discount).

Seeing the title of this submission reminded me of it because I messed around with it a bit a few years ago.

I hadn't put much thought into why it was called "Vienna Standard Mean Ocean Water".

My first hint should have been that Austria is landlocked.

It's still being developed outside of Canonical. The latest release of an Ubuntu version is 26.04.

Then you're American as far as they're concerned. Citizenship isn't something you can tell at a glance or determine by measuring a person.

the person i'm replying to said they didn't have that experience as a non-EU citizen, whereas i did

Does it? I just tried logging in without typing the full username and it didn't work.

Blue sky... Yes, at least for me. I double checked in private browsing before posting that claim.

fmt:print from fmtlib has been around for at least a decade, though having it be in the spec by default now is nice.

Even in c++20, you could use format() to do most of what you'd want from it.

I think they're describing how you can force the two pins of a europlug into a type-G socket, if you first stick a screwdriver or key or something into the earth pin to open the shutters.

This will give you access to electricity, but the contact area is much smaller than it's designed for (round pins in a rectangular hole), so using it for anything high wattage will end poorly.

An often overlooked part of the BSA spec for type-G sockets is they're supposed to have a flat surface surrounding the socket large enough to prevent you using the earth pin of an upside down plug to do this.

Any of the series of jetlag the game[0] set in Europe basically function as a free advertisement for eurail.
