I would expect FreeBSD to also be in the minority compared to Linux distros [1]. There are also other providers that support *BSD and people still requested it on DO. Why can't I ask for Arch? [1]: http://w3techs.com/te

Yep. I was running Arch Linux on a personal droplet, and they decided to deprecate support for it. I don't even think there was an official announcement about it. There's even quite a bit of backing to bring it back [1], and oddly

No leading zeros?! [1] I'm pretty sure most math/engineering fields recommend leading zeros for readability, e.g, NIST: "For numbers less than one, a zero is written before the decimal marker. For example, 0.25 s is the corre
