PWAs were a feature I marked “want least”. I don’t like a cluttered home screen, I’d much rather just use bookmarks.

Except Alpine & those based on it, which uses Linux but not GNU libc or GNU coreutils or GNU BASH… Just musl libc & Busybox. I.e. the entire subject of this thread is one of the non-GNU Linuxes.
Yes, I listed sysvinit for that reason. And Musl instead of glibc. GNU is optional in a Linux distro, except for the kernel’s use of a GNU license.
Sure, I should have gone further.

There are thousands of combinations of the possible layers needed to make an OS.
Systemd/GNU/Linux/GTK or Systemd/GNU/Linux/QT, really…
A thousand Roman paces. A pace is two steps, each about 1m, so 1mi is about 2km. The conversion from paces to meters isn’t exact, and definitions have shifted over time.
Swap files are useful if you are still on EXT4 or similar. If you’re using ZFS or BTRFS or BCacheFS, they have no benefits.
CPU doesn’t have any secure storage, so it can’t encrypt or authenticate comms to the TPM. The on-CPU fTPMs are the solution, the CPU then has the secure storage.
RF circuits are the same core principles filtered through black magic and the Laplace domain.
Yep, providing exemptions for vehicles under the weight threshold where a commercial driver’s license is required is dumb.
Yep. If exemptions required a CDL there would be far fewer exempt vehicles being made.
DoH looks identical to normal website traffic. If it’s slow, it’s probably the DoH provider and not the ISP.
You mean SNI, not ESNI. ESNI is the Encrypted Server Name Indication that gets around that, though the newer ECH (Encrypted Client Hello) is better in many ways. Not all sites support either though.
EFI systems don’t use the MBR. Windows will default to using the whole disk if you don’t use the “advanced” button, but so will most linux distro installers.
Not with EFI boot. If you deliberately use legacy BIOS emulation to boot, it can. So don’t do that.
With EFI systems this doesn’t matter. It was an issue with the legacy BIOS bootloader systems about a decade ago though.
If you heat carbon in a vacuum, it sublimates straight to gas. If you heat it under extreme pressure in an inert gas atmosphere, then it can melt. Unfortunately creating such pressures in the lab is only possible with diamond anvil presses, which are themselves carbon and thus tend to sublimate from the heat, resulting in pressure vessel failure. Doing the experiment on the surface of a neutron star would work, but presents some other difficulties.
On libc functions yes. Maybe on some from other libs, if they provide man pages.
Yes, Krita is by far a better editor.
Yes, it’s a fancy way to save a tab. I just leave the tab open. Not a feature I want, so not something I want them to waste limited development time on. It’d be nice if it were through the bookmarks interface, so booarks could save state & history the way tabs do, but that’s not what’s proposed so I’d rather not have this. PWAs are a workaround to make up for the limitations of bookmarks.
