Was the word not used in Blackadder the Third, “Ink and Incapability”, September 1987 when Samuel Johnson has just finished his dictionary, and Blackadder trolls him by making up a load of words?
What a coincidence. Just yesterday I saw a video about how Mario Galaxy works from a technical perspective, and water was one of the topics.
As it turns out, the water effect was done by manipulating the floor texture with a noise pattern to make it squiggly, and then putting a transparent layer above. It looks pretty good and doesn’t need much processing power.
It’s the number of the signal sent, 9 is for SIGKILL. You can send various signals with kill, and depending on how application was made it may react on all signals with dying, or meaningfully process most of them. Afaik, SIGKILL can’t be processed by the app, and it always means just that: “die already”.
Checked in Wikipedia, that’s about right but there are more details I left out, mostly because didn’t know about them, too: POSIX signals
Many here will be seeing this for the first time. For others it will be a fun reminder of something they haven’t seen for a long time. Still others will find it to be the same old tired shit they’re sick of.
When you see the same old tired shit on Lemmy (or any social media), just move on. There will be plenty that is new to you.
