| | Personally, of all motherboard beeping codes, I always liked "No beep = Power supply, system board problem, disconnected CPU, or disconnected speaker...." (Well, when not suffering it myself. And even then I could stand it when it was just the latter and thus of no ''immediate'' consequence...)

| − | Unfortunately the beep codes thing is archaic. Most new computers built since the early to mid-2000s haven't made a beep - instead, the trend has been to rely on visual codes from built-in LEDs (and, later on, from pairs of eight-segment displays relaying hex codes). So a modern code will run from 00 to FF - but it will also be completely silent. [[Special:Contributions/141.101.81.216|141.101.81.216]] 11:47, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

| − | : Every computer ever booted in my presence, some before many during and a few shortly after stated time period as well as several brand new this year, has beeped at the end of the POST, with one exception. That one would have beeped, but it's PC speaker was removed because it annoyed the owner. So I don't think hex code error indicators have quite made beepcodes "archaic".--[[User:guest|guest]] 08:46, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

| − | It's called a sarcastic comment, though it's technically irony. It's very common for english speaking people to say "well, that's helpful" when the intended understanding is exactly the opposite.--[[User:guest|guest]] 08:41, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

| − | :Yes, {{w|HTTP 404}} is an {{w|HTTP response code}}, but ''one that specifically represents an error condition''...so HTTP 404 is indeed an {{w|HTTP response code#4xx client errors|error code}} (as opposed to, say, a ''{{w|HTTP response code#2xx success|success code}}''). — [[User:Yfmcpxpj|Yfmcpxpj]] ([[User talk:Yfmcpxpj|talk]]) 19:30, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

| − | The choice of -41 is interesting, because at least on Linux x86_64, there '''is''' no error 41 in the standard error codes (errno -ls). Instead, between ''ELOOP 40 Too many levels of symbolic links'' and ''ENOMSG 42 No message of desired type'' is ''EWOULDBLOCK 11 Resource temporarily unavailable'' (11 is the same code as ''EAGAIN''). Seems likely that Randall deliberately picked an error code that doesn't exist. [[Special:Contributions/172.69.79.209|172.69.79.209]] 02:58, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
