Canonically she uses Copland OS, which is named after an abandoned Mac OS 8 prototype but is functionally completely different. Given that Copland OS is built to access what works like a crossbreed between the internet and and the Zone from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games, I think it's reassuring that we don't have it in our world.
Copland was supposed to take over the world at the time the anime was made, so that makes sense. Didn't quite turn it that way, of course, which is probably for the better.
Back in the good old days I used to play kmem-roulette: Write a random value into a random address of /proc/kmem until the system crashed. That was much more fun, as on the way there was also the possibility that the kernel might just start wreaking havoc in some random files. No wonder they removed the kmem file in the end.
0.4889 / 7 chance of failure, naively accounting for Windows' market share and assuming the user is sufficiently privileged (according to LostXOR's comment, I stand corrected)
Oh right. I thought it might work the same as range etc in python, where is does one less than you specify.. Coming from, well every other language this really threw me off on my first python excursion.
Not really. Microsoft compiled a version of their OS for ARM devices - creatively named "Windows on ARM", but on a Raspberry Pi I'd hardly describe the performance as "running" - walking/crawling would be more apt.
They've made Windows IoT Core that runs on Raspberry Pi. I have a colleague that maintains a tanning bed system that uses two Pis running that for each bed, one to operate the bed itself and one to accept payments.
Exactly zero risk
Especially for her, seeing that we know she doesn't use Windows.
She uses an arcane mix of Linux From Scratch and OpenBSD

Let me guess, you're not using Windows?
0.4889 / 7 chance of failure, naively accounting for Windows' market share and assuming the user is sufficiently privileged(according to LostXOR's comment, I stand corrected)Are you sure? From what I can tell there's a 5 in 6 chance of catastrophic failure.
First of all, 1 in n. Second, 0...6 has amount 7 (len(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) == 7), so therefore 1/7.
Also,
Fair, I was trying to be cheeky and here you are shutting me up with a compiler level "nope". Take your +1.
Make it a bit more fun.
1 in 6 chance to trigger the logic.
The logic?
The slow deterioration, and random issues appearing that are tough to diagnose would be more fun than such wanton destruction.
The equivalent of losing (part of) a finger on each success/failure, instead of totally evacuating the contents of your skull.
The chance is actually 1 in 7 because both 0 and 6 are included in the
randInt()range.Oh right. I thought it might work the same as range etc in python, where is does one less than you specify.. Coming from, well every other language this really threw me off on my first python excursion.
You can get the exclusive behaviour with
random.randrange. (Relevant Stack Overflow question with a somewhat interesting answer)Any language... except MATLAB. Fuck MATLAB.
(Their arrays even start at 1, what the fuck?!)
Lua starts at 1 too. It's infuriating. I believe for the same historical reason Matlab does.
Both meant for non CS people.
Also, the backslashes need to be escaped I believe
Or just use forward slashes like someone sane!
You're right, I forgot Python makes them work on Windows too
What fukin psycho is running windows on a raspberry pi?

If DOSBox runs on one, then the old DOS-based Windows versions might work. But then, they didn't keep much in System32, where they even had it at all.

It's mad
I tried it and it asks for my password. Should I enter it?
I drink the monster to see what the next number would have been.
