No, they are not. The ratio of people over 65 years old is about 30% [1], with slight differences depending on which source you want to believe and in which year the statistics were gathered. You could even aggregate the numbers yourself fr

There are a few more that are fairly common to be logged somewhat separately: severity, host and component/service, but even if so, the structure is lacking in universality (i.e. lot of logging systems support this, but in their own wa

Your beef is misplaced, madam/sir. EU does not mandate any website to store on your computer cookies that require consent. The companies (and individuals, hah) that choose to track you, do so of their own volition. As an EU citizen, I

Could be one of the sibling encodings, like base85 or uuencoded, perhaps? From afar they could look sufficiently similar to base64 that OP got them mixed up?

My reading of the article was that memory is not directly compromised, but CPU registers. So loaded unencrypted in one of the affected registers.

I imagined anyone making the next hugely popular game in the same category as those that I mentioned is not going to put much money in developing it, just time. And doing so, they'd likely just target the particular Linux system they h

Maybe they start feeding you longer ads if you don't skip them? I never skip (but I don't watch much of Youtube, either), just turn the volume down to zero. Yeah, some ads are about 6s. Many are 15-30s. Some are around 1 minute. S

Heavily doubt that those would make people switch. Maaaybe, if their social circle already uses Linux. However, make the next Minecraft, Fortnite or Roblox work only (or considerably better) on Linux desktop[ ], and you will suddenly gain a

Whether it is actually more complex, I don't know. I didn't claim so for actual reasons, and your comment is one of them. I'm just a user, not a package or system maintainer, whose opinions are way more substantive than mine.

I pay 45€ per year for membership, and subscription of the magazine is the only part of the membership I enjoy. Sure, postage to Europe costs extra, don't know how much. If quality of the magazine deteriorates, I will cancel my members

I have serious dislike for what I perceive as (unnecessary) complexity of Systemd. I made a quick analysis of different init systems when that nigh-unavoidability had not yet happened. OpenRC seemed then the most reasonable of the ones I re

Still quite a bit shorter than the depth record holder https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kola_Superdeep_Borehole . (BTW, "10k-Meter" sure is a weird way to spell 10km.)

Well, everyone can read the Wikipedia pages and their references, and make their own minds. Our views are so fundamentally different that I see no reason to continue discussion.

That's a surprising way to frame what the Wikipedia page says. The ban was part of a russification attempt. One of the stated goals, on the page you linked, is "Replace Lithuanian parish schools with Russian grammar schools"

Thanks, interesting. (This is something I had actually observed, too, but never had the patience to figure out what was happening.) I like the SQLite idea.

I would imagine the vast majority of OpenWRT users don't know they're running the Linux kernel. It was installed by the manufacturer or the operator. Assuming that's true, does it make OpenWRT not a distro? I understand your

If you are more happy-go-lucky, you can just do 4, 6-8 and 10, like I did for years (closer to a decade, actually, I think 1997 til 2006, when I switched mostly to Ubuntu). However, I've always installed apt-listchanges and configured

Android seems to be the most popular Linux distro on the planet, though? Does it use systemd? I was under the impression that it doesn't, but as it often is, I might be wrong.

Likewise, experiencing JVM is something different from ALGOL ... And not quite sure if SQL could be grouped together with Prolog due to its declarative nature. But if so, DBMS is, like OTP, quite far from Prolog, just in a slightly differen

If it means how "wine appears to the eye", could that also mean how appealing, or repulsive it is? I don't know or remember what is the context in the original, but for example, a sea that is so calm that it is inviting to tr

At that age the distro probably does not matter all that much. If whatever you choose doesn't work too well, you can install something else together. And cheer at the new selection of wallpapers during or after installation. But since
