My wife is Vietnamese, so I have a basic grasp of it, but they don't really have a word for yes.
The verb itself is used to answer the question.
Want something to drink? Drink. Want to go to the park? Go.

They have a word for no, but as you can probably ascertain, it's only for the negative.

Funnily enough, that is a keyword in rust.

(it's a placeholder to remove any bikeshedding)

Iirc, for those interested, it's actually a mistranslation of the original Hebrew term.
The original term is tzelas, which is a bit ambiguous.
It could be rib, but no real way of knowing.

I'd argue that durability isn't the same as AC.

Also, I feel like a plate could withstand a knife stab.

The trick is to get friends to play games with.

Xfce is still wholly in xorg territory.

Iirc there's work being done for Wayland support, but last I checked, it's not nearly far enough along.

Not entirely true.
In an apartment in the middle of a city, noisy neighbours can be a problem.

In those cases, it's best to jump to 5 GHz, and leave the 2.4 band alone.
