Holy Moly. You know your target audience when your specs say “100 MHz main clock oscillator” rather than “now with powerful 0.1 GHz CPU that can be pushed to >>>0.2 GHz<<< !!!💪”

LOL AdAway blocked liberux.net wtf😂 but thanks! The specs are surprisingly good too! :O

Right, then I’ll just stay on my current build, being careful not to flash an OS update 😈

But in all seriousness, couldn’t one manage without OS updates - relying on only proper cyber hygiene and opsec - until a more viable solution comes up? 🤔

Thanks! I’m doing this on Linux, which I failed to mention in the post. I terminated the program with ctrl + c, but it was still interesting to me how such a short, seemingly uncomplicated snippet could tax my Ryzen 7 5800 X3D so much that the fans needed to increase their speed. Couldn’t a malicious actor theoretically disrupt a target machine by having an unnoticeably insignificant program loop in the background, taxing the CPU to it’s usable limits? This is off topic of course, but still interesting.

Thank you so much! :D Yeah, I noticed there were no remainders. I’ll try with float and see what I can come up with.

Thanks! Really important to have fun with it too! :)

This is amazing(ly curious)! I put in a letter, the program went into an infinite loop and my chassi fans sped up like crazy.

Checking it out now. Thanks!

Thanks! I really appreciate the more advanced steps too! Now I have something to do next weekend! :D

Looking into it now! Thanks! :)

Signing off now, but I did have the strength left to do this:

else if (choice == 4) {
                        if (num2 == 0) printf("\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_by_zero\n\n");
                        else {
                        memory = num1 / num2;
                        printf("\nThe quotient of %d and %d is %d\n\n", num1, num2, memory);
                        }
                }

Cheers!

Thank you! I really appreciate your guidance! It almost feels like you could have experience from teaching or the likes, since you are so good at explaining! Or maybe that just comes with being a senior SE? Either way, thanks again!
