There isn’t a distro that doesn’t support Xen because it’s built into the kernel, and I’ve built virtual machines on Xen and Qemu-KVM, compared their performance and found the differences minute at best but Qemu-KVM is more flexible so not sure why I’d want to use Xen anyway.

They sure are huge on my system and spread their shit over half the file systems. Firefux is a complete disaster now that it is flatpack.

@sxan @beta_tester EXACTLY, I am glad SOMEBODY gets it.

Chinas largest to smallest unit makes sense to me since it’s the same as Arabic numbers, largest to smallest, and so sorting order would also be same.

You BUY MacOS or WhenBlows, but Linux is generally free to download. You can buy support from some vendors such as Ubuntu, Redhat, Mandriva, and Manjaro, but in all cases I am aware of, Linux itself is free.

@SeaJ I agree on time, 24 hours makes it a lot easier to communicate times with people in other time zones and easier to calculate from GMT.

My experience with snap has been nothing but bad, I absolutely hate it.

Actually, I have my public facing servers configured to listen to 443 as well. Why? Because many corporate and public space wifi spots like libraries, will block 22, but allow 443 for https, so on my shell servers, I also listen to 443.

Actually not accurate for “Rest of the World”, China uses year month day.

What it means is that you’re getting the libs the program uses with the program instead of using the system libs, this defeats the whole point of shared memory and wastes RAM, it is inefficient but saves them from having to compile for each distro, still, the system loader has to resolve and load these making loading slower, if they had to include the libs, a better way to do it is to simply compile the binary as a static binary with all the libs compiled in, at least that way it saves the loader overhead.
