Ask HN: Could you ever hear a core dump? 2 points by Pixelicious 8y ago ↗ HN Were there computers for which core dumps were a physical process?
[–] DrScump 8y ago ↗ Computers with actual magnetic core memory were also really loud, so it would have been hard to hear any other detail.Generally, the only noise you'd hear in response to a core dump was the programmer, screaming. Go Team S0C7!
