It's a good idea, and the implementation works. Are there actual problems, or are you just complaining that AI was used?

There's a JIT, so running the same thing more than once makes it faster: ~ # time hello Hello, world! real 0m 1.89s user 0m 0.67s sys 0m 1.14s ~ # time hello Hello, world! real 0m 0.97s user 0m 0.36s sys 0m 0.55

No, they don't only increase attack surface. In particular, uBo reduces attack surface a lot more than it increases it.

Yeah, I'm really not sure that's a joke; binary packages, optionally combined with a prefix install, seem like a great fit.

Yes, GOS is probably a direct improvement over stock android; I would also describe that as suboptimal from a user freedom perspective. Really, most of my beef with GOS is that its developers strongly object to user-controlled root. On my

Yep, that sounds like the same idea: > The format is very simple: it adds some accounting info at the start of the file, and then appends all the ELF binaries after it, adding padding for alignment. The end of the file isn't touched

I am 95% confident you don't actually need to assign IPs. Do this: # ping all link-local devices on an interface: ping ff02::1%eth0 And then do your socat/rsync/whatever to the only IP that responds.

Losing the back half of the achieve doesn't lose your directory list. (Truth be told, I prefer the approach of sticking a copy on the front and back for redundancy, but I appreciate that that's a very specific tradeoff)

It's a trade between size and speed. If you want fast lookup, it's not a waste.

I always assumed you could work around this by pre-allocating a large enough header space to hold a reasonable sized directory tree. You could even then append a supplementary directory if you run out of space and just stick a pointer in th

I still have a computer that produces slightly different noise (coil whine?) depending what it's doing. Fascinating behavior.
