Except Alpine & those based on it, which uses Linux but not GNU libc or GNU coreutils or GNU BASH… Just musl libc & Busybox. I.e. the entire subject of this thread is one of the non-GNU Linuxes.

Yes, I listed sysvinit for that reason. And Musl instead of glibc. GNU is optional in a Linux distro, except for the kernel’s use of a GNU license.
Sure, I should have gone further.

There are thousands of combinations of the possible layers needed to make an OS.

Swap files are useful if you are still on EXT4 or similar. If you’re using ZFS or BTRFS or BCacheFS, they have no benefits.
Used it for the last few years. X just doesn’t work right with multiple monitors of different resolution.
You wouldn’t end up at a login screen, you’d end up in the last logged in user’s session.
To be extra pedantic, there are a lot of dash, hyphen, and minus characters, but critically no such thing as a “hyphen-dash”, just “hyphen-minus” or " dash".
People use computers to accplish tasks. That requires running software on an OS, but nobody runs software or an OS just to sit & watch it exist. They run it to accomplish tasks.
Different distros mostly vary in how easy it is to accomplish various tasks. No one distro is the easiest for everything, so people make different choices depending on their needs.
Eh, as a weirdo who uses Celsius a lot but lives in Buffalo, NY…
-20s is cold. Coat, gloves, scarf, & hat. Long underwear. Not too much evaporation from the lake since it can freeze, so not much snow.
-10s is chilly. Coat, probably zip it up towards the lower end of the range. Decent chance of apocalyptic snow.
0-10s is cool. Wear a sweater.
10s is nice. Maybe consider long sleeves & pants if it gets a bit cooler.
20s is shorts & t-shirt weather.
30s is all AC, all the time. Uncomfortably hot not too far into the range.
40s is “the humidity is now so high the air is soup, filled with mosquitoes”.
Negative absolute temperature is a thing. Lasers exhibit negative temperatures when active, i.e. the lasing medium has a negative temperature expressed in Kelvin. Adding more energy doesn’t increase its entropy, it just turns into more laser light. Any such system with bounded entropy can have a negative thermodynamic temperature.
You use the cleaning function first, then the dry function. Don’t just dry the shit on there (well, maybe you would, but everyone else washes first, that’s the point of a bidet).
Oops, fixed.
Inline assembly (asm!
) and freeform assembly (global_asm!
) stabilized in Rust 1.59. Those would allow even lower-level printing mechanisms.
For really “cursed” code I’d say making a weird machine would count.
I use NixOS & Home Manager. My config is in git
, and I use an ephemeral setup with ZFS & tmpfs:
Mount layout:
/ tmpfs
├─/boot /dev/sda1 FAT32 EFI system partition
├─/nix rpool/local/nix ZFS partition
├─/home/persist rpool/safe/home ZFS partition
└─/persist rpool/safe/persist ZFS partition
ZFS partitions under rpool/safe/ get backed up, the rest don’t need to be. Everything else can be rebuilt (and most of it gets re-created at boot anyway, since / and /home are tmpfs).
DoH looks identical to normal website traffic. If it’s slow, it’s probably the DoH provider and not the ISP.
You mean SNI, not ESNI. ESNI is the Encrypted Server Name Indication that gets around that, though the newer ECH (Encrypted Client Hello) is better in many ways. Not all sites support either though.
Intimidation is a charisma skill. A hulking half-orc barbarian with violent tendencies is less intimidating than the party bard.
As a piper, obviously, the bard could threaten to play the bagpipes out of tune so I can see where WotC were going with making it a Cha skill, but still.
Yep, it’s basically a way to define new groups per directory. But these groups are hidden from the normal group commands!
I’dv deleted the default, it’s never come back.
