I just tried going there on a Mint 18 system running firefox
57.0.1 and everything loaded just fine.
I'm hesitant to create more issue noise when the problem is only
present (so far) on a very specific old Linux distribution. I
appreciate that D is mostly maintained by volunteers and don't
want to create useless work for them.
BTW you can run the tour offline too:
```
git clone https://github.com/dlang-tour/core
cd core
git submodule foreach git pull origin master
dub
```
Not that it's worth debugging since wget should get the job done,
but there seems to be a dependency library missing on our
systems. The error message when running dub was:
```
...
Compiling Diet HTML template tour.dt...
Compiling Diet HTML template editor.dt...
Linking...
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -levent
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Error: linker exited with status 1
dmd failed with exit code 1.
```
In D typically you just use `enforce`:
https://dlang.org/phobos/std_exception.html#enforce
(except for bigger projects / libraries, of course)
Example:
```
enforce("The environment variable FOOBAR isn't defined",
"FOOBAR" !in environment);
```
Well that looks handy. Thanks!
