I see no X here.

I see no X here.  Hackers (and the interactive computer
   games they write) traditionally favor this slightly marked usage
   over other possible equivalents such as "There's no X here!" or
   "X is missing."  or "Where's the X?".  This goes back to the
   original PDP-10 {ADVENT}, which would respond in this wise if
   you asked it to do something involving an object not present at
   your location in the game.
