   And every major implementation supports them. Well, I trudged through the RFCs in ~2010, so it's possible that it's been updated since then.

   Both Japan and the US have requirements on what temperature and for what duration meat for raw consumption is stored. Most chicken in the US isn't meant for raw consumption, so it isn't handled that way; so Sashimi chicken in Jap

   To be fair, an old RFC referenced by an RFC that is referenced by the current thing specifies that a segment of a domain name can't start with a number. Obviously, that isn't true in the real world.

   It's a refurbished Lenovo ThinkPad X200 (2008, I believe). So yeah, it looks kinda dated. And yeah, ThinkPads tend to look blocky; I don't think that's news to anyone.

    Good question! I believe that CPU microcode is still unavailable (though I could, and would love to be, wrong. I'll check with Francis). The FSF's RYF certification (which Gluglug machines have) makes an exception for "soft

    Hurd has been in development since 1990. Revisions of the linked page go back to 1996. I'd have to do more digging to figure out when Hurd transparent FTP was actually implemented.
