Nice try, RMS.

Okay, I actually installed it. It makes beeps, but I don't get what's the point of it.

It's for musicians or others who want an audible beep made on a consistent period.

Sounds like something needed.

Is that how niggers generate random numbers? Projects near the corners will have a lower probability of being hit. Here, have a White Man's pastebin, I hope you can figure out how to generate a random number that picks an integer between 1 and the number of lines in the paste.

Mine is better. Just paste this js to console:

document.getElementsByClassName("package-list emph-box")["0"].children[Math.round(Math.random()*a["0"].children.length)].innerText

But you know it isn't random, right? It's still pseudorandom.

Yes it is good, but still in development

Java framework using Swing to quickly write basic forms (sounds somewhat useful).

all dead links...abandonware....someone mail RMS a screenshot, so he can gopher in and fix the problem.

I got linux libre. It looks like a well maintained project. I personally try to be practical with my free software, so Im willing to use non-free drivers to get hardware working, ill use non-free ides when its required for school, etc. I think its good you can have a computer running only free software though.

Good enough. For our purpose all that matters is that distribution is even.

Looks like another abandoned project. It was probably ahead of its time, with today's internet it would be more useful. Turn on the heating while on the go so your home is comfy warm when you arrive.

Yours doesn't work.

> var a=document.getElementById("selectable").firstElementChild; a.children[Math.round(Math.random()*a.children.length)].textContent

for pastebin and:

> var a=document.getElementsByClassName("package-list emph-box")["0"]; a.children[Math.round(Math.random()*a.children.length)].textContent

aside the formentioned it doesn't seem like a bad project.

>>1024668

What will I get? Nothing?

>>1024676

676 rolls over to 076

>>1024649

Right. I've defined variable a in my console earlier.

Now it should work.

document.getElementsByClassName("package-list emph-box")["0"].children[Math.round(Math.random()*document.getElementsByClassName("package-list emph-box")["0"].children.length)].innerText

>>1024684

Don't use innerText. It's a MS IE thing where the text has to be visible to be returned and it's slower (because that requires more effort).
