It’s fairly important to keep it private for US citizens, see here.

I’m always hopeful, but there was another state/city in Germany (Munich I think?) that tried to do this a long time ago, then after 10 years of not being able to move entirely over, they moved back to MS, then I think they tried again. Really flip-flopped a lot. I think stuff like this needs to be more organic in its movement rather than big bangs and milestones. Just let it creep in and take over.

First UNIX was QNX, random free CD on a magazine.

First Linux was Mandrake 7.0, then moved to RedHat, then distro hopped for about…20-25 years so far I guess :-p

I feel selinux should be able to do something clever here, like it can manage/block port access.

Pro tip: -z, -j are not needed by tar anymore since many years, tar will autodetect what compression was used if your distro is anything remotely modern.

What’s the advantage of this vs running it in a container? https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX

I’ve actually thought for a while now that a big software company should come out and say they support ReactOS for whatever their product is and advertise it like “Full, Oracle 23c DB support on ReactOS - but without the Microsoft tax.”

Yes, that’s not realistic between Oracle and MS, but it would be such a boon to ReactOS.

I wonder, what characters are allowed? $0 would be interesting, or even the fork-bomb classic.

OK, thanks.

I guess it’s worth confirming if it’s been a logout or a reboot as well. If you open a terminal and type “uptime” does the time match when you booted up or after you left it alone for a while?

Check the output of: dmesg -T and have a look through: /var/log/messages

I would be focussing on errors, warnings and/or terms like “reboot, shutdown, logout, timeout, idle, etc.” to try to narrow it down what is happening and when.

Without sounding rude, are you sure it’s at the login screen and not the unlock screen?

Thanks, you’re the best.

…Can someone share that emoji, please?

The upside is you will age slower than the population.

I don’t really have an answer for you here, but isn’t having the expiry pointless now if you’re going to honour an elapsed token?

The argument has become “if price X mins ago is equal to price now, honour it” - so it could have expired 10 mins ago, or 10 days ago, etc. and you’d still be honouring it, right?

So, why have an expiry at all in this scenario? The question should become, if we’re going to honour it after 5 mins, will we honour it at 10 mins? 100 days? Which? A cut off needs to be defined.

I’ll make it spin my desktop cube, force every window to move slightly so they wobble and play Louis Theroux’s lyric Jiggle Jiggle.

Why? Just because Windows uses can’t.

Not going to lie, I think I lost interest after the 3rd reference to “Nix” and there being no guide as to whether it means Unix-like, Nix (the plan9 fork), NixOS (Linux distro), Nix (the package manager) or something referred to as “The Nix Language”

Because UNIX Epoch starts 1970, not 1975 is why I mentioned it.

Wait, there’s a GNU Epoch as well?

I don’t tend to use awk in scripts as I do tend to do them in Python, but I do use awk on almost daily basis in one-liners.

Probably the most common thing for me is so I can read a config file without annoying comments and big line spaces.

grep -v "^#" krb5.conf | awk NF
