UTC is expressed using positive or negative offset from IAT

Isn’t that UT0?

UTC is timezone too. It has leap seconds. IAT is atomic time. It is perfect.

Worst is UTC vs IAT

Fussy

True. It also had binary packages for huge packages like firefox and libreoffice for a very long time.

So everyone who do not fight for Putin’s yacts and palaces are pussies too?

Putin is deepest pussy.

And it’s just one year! Damn, 20th century was very full of events. And 21st century started with Putino-Ukrainian war.

There is russian meme “voting for stool just to vote against UR”.

If you say for example that Cuba under Castro had a successful literacy program, then there are people who will accuse you of being a tankie just for that.

$COUNTRY had a successful literacy program under $LEFT_GOVERMENT.

True, network boot is not best example. Shared /usr is much better one. For example if you are school that wants to buy 100 thin clients for very cheap.

on the basis of evergreening IP laws (a fair complaint, imo)

Hard to disagree. Nature isn’t something to be patented.

GPS looks sadly at your comment

And use bigger bandaid. Meanwhile initramfs and split-usr would greatly complement each other.

Think about booting over network. Or having /usr on another drive. Including even network drive. Think about dumb terminals(wrong cetury) thin clients. For example they can use small disk to quickly boot wihout downloading kernel and initramfs and use NFS for /usr and /home.

I am sure Win7 installer has it and if, I didn’t get early dementia, Win10 installer has too.

Personal experience. Go search for linux users among football fans. Both footballs. You won’t find as often.

As a heavy gamer, never say those words 😂

Well, recommendation isn’t based only on being gamer. But I noticed heavy gamers tend to more proactive in learning how their system works and tweak their system to their needs. I got one converted into Arch user. It’s like heavy gamers have attention and initiative.

and as IT student, this is really interesting.

It was interesting even to some school students. I think I first Installed Gentoo somewhere in 6th grade.

How well do containers

Should be fine. Long time ago I tried to use lxc. It worked.

virtual machines

KVM works really well, I didn’t try Xen.

and flatpaks work?

Didn’t need, didn’t try. There is nothing preventing them from working.

I was thinking about learning self hosting, emacs, and xmonad on a pi4.

I am running Gentoo 24/7 on noname chinese TV box on Allwinner A10 with 1GB of RAM. I wrote device tree myself and compiled mainline u-boot. Most of packages I precompile on my desktop with crossdev, that has exactly same make.conf. Same for Rock64 SBC, but it’s sitting powered off. Also I did small modifications to devicetree for it as well. I can answer some qutsions.

TV box runs tor node 24/7 and private search of fimfarchive.

This is worst response. Others at least said “No, they are babies, they don’t even know how to speak, how are they going to be able to know what “gender” even means?”, but your “nobody knows she’s a girl yet” is so wierd.
