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.
Systemd/GNU/Linux/GTK or Systemd/GNU/Linux/QT, really…
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.
It’s the NIF. It’s a hydrogen bomb simulator, it’s not intended to become a power production mechanism. Roughly 0% of their budget involves researching how to turn single fusion explosions at most every few hours into continuous power output.
Scales great for getting around nuclear test ban treaties though, much quicker to retest than blowing up Pacific islands.
CPU doesn’t have any secure storage, so it can’t encrypt or authenticate comms to the TPM. The on-CPU fTPMs are the solution, the CPU then has the secure storage.
Lead(II,IV) Oxide (aka red lead) is sometimes used to color low-quality cinnamon to look better. Much like yellow led is sometimes used to color turmeric. Toxic, of course, but profitable!
In presidential systems like the US has legislation originates from congress. The President only has veto power over legislation, and controls the enforcement of existing legislation. They can’t force congress to create new legislation, though of course they can propose legislation (anyone can do that). This is very different from parliamentary systems where the Prime Minister is the head of the majority party of the parliament, and can thus directly propose legislation and get their party to support it.
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".
Probably red lead used to disguise low-quality cinnamon.
It was making them trans, not gay.
RF circuits are the same core principles filtered through black magic and the Laplace domain.
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.
Yep, providing exemptions for vehicles under the weight threshold where a commercial driver’s license is required is dumb.
Yep. If exemptions required a CDL there would be far fewer exempt vehicles being made.
If at first you don’t succeed, skydiving is not for you.
int const golden = 1.618;
int* non_constant = (int*)&golden;
golden = 1.61803399;
Casts are totally not a danger that should require a comment explaining safety…
And more generally mutable aliasing references of any sort are evil. Doesn’t mean they’re not useful, just that you need magic protection spells (mutexes, semaphores, fancy lock-free algorithms, atomics, etc) to use them safely. Skip the spell or use she wrong one, and the demon escapes and destroys all you hold dear.
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.
