Would it be possible or desirable for one of these backup system to natively implement parity?

Fair enough. The suggestion was more for the HTTPS part and not the performance part of your complaint. It's simple enough to set up, pay-as-you-go, only requires one vendor, and should be very scalable. I'd just as soon throw up

I've been using Plasma on NixOS, switched from GNOME 3 because I was having terrible issues with the Nvidia drivers (it may have since been fixed). It's fine although I kinda miss gedit and the GNOME terminal emulator.

If you don't mind giving up the durability of EBS, you can use an i3 (or similar) instance's ephemeral disks. They should be way faster.

Has anyone made a build of Minecraft with stripped networking? I never use the online features when I play. I know this is basically asking about piracy but I bought the game so I wouldn't feel bad about using it.

The type of an underlying variable at runtime may be different than what the typescript type declares. Practically, this would probably be due to either poor, incorrect, out-of-sync, or incomplete type definitions. A poor example, but this

As long as there is nothing broken in internals (a very big if, to be fair), user code crashing will not affect subsequent requests.

When I was deciding between Nix and Guix, perhaps 5 years ago, I definitely got the impression that Nix had more contributors and the more comprehensive package set, which is one reason why I ultimately decided on NixOS. I couldn't say

In NixOS, typically the config files will be generated from scratch using the Nix language, see for example sshd [0] or bind [1]. `d4ys2c8kzzcp3g4fv3ivy7a5nkayg7w2` is a hash of the inputs to a derivation (a package in Nix terms). In a sens

I've heard it's relatively common to get allocated an IP that has previously been abused by spammers, or certain providers will reject incoming mail from IPs that have no reputation (but then how can you build reputation?).
