I’m honestly having issues deciding if this is bait or not. Surely you understand that UNIX is a multi-user operating system and that partitioning drives exactly for the reason you describe is critical to ensure that, for example, runaway l

Presumably optimal rollout speed entails something like or as close to ”push it everywhere all at once and activate immediately” that you can get — that’s fine if you want to risk short downtime rather than delays in rollout, what I don’t u

I have no idea about the technical details but I suspect the comparison you’re making isn't that relevant. As I understand it this is just a project that happens to be based on NetBSD, and given enough work you could probably do the sa

Of course, and it was sloppy of me to call it "out of date", that goes for all serious Linux distributions with official life cycles, the "official" packages provided follow the life cycle of the distribution. This is a

As far as I know, BBR3 is not in the mainline Linux kernel, so obviously it will not be in Debian by default. From https://groups.google.com/g/bbr-dev/c/i-sZpfwPx-I/m/0jmNry0A... : > To make sure

Just to be devil's advocate here, and pedantically point out that Debian Sid is not a "distro", I don't think it's correct to say that Debian unstable is "actually stable", because it's "unstable

We already had this debate back in the early naughts when services like Napster and Kazaa were widely used. They provided a very obvious benefit, and it wasn't just that music was free, it provided you with MP3 files that you could use
