I should do more.

IMHO systemd tries to go above the requirements of an init system and behave more like an abstraction layer to the OS, in the same way Linux is an abstraction layer to the hardware. Would we be better with a micro kernel, instead of the Linux beast? Maybe, but we do all use it and it is mostly a standard nowadays. Same for systemd. Could it be simpler? Sure! But having a standard abstraction layer at user level for all distros is excellent for an app developer. And, AFAIK, it should be possible, albeit less verified, to disable most features and use alternative implementations.

But strictly speaking they usually board last the people sitting more in front of the plane, so if you are the last group you should pass the least amount of people…

We’re all waiting to hear about what Linus decided regarding bcachefs, aren’t we?

I would guess that they, as everyone else, have worked with MS Office all their lives and can do whatever they need without thinking much in there. But libreoffice has some small differences that will break their workflow and will spend time learning how to workaround those instead of doing what they need. For example, my grip is that in MS I can redo the last operation with ctrl+y, where in libre it’s ctrl+shift+y. They could very likely allow the former to behave like the latter when redo buffet is empty, but they don’t.

I always wet the back of my neck before entering a cold body of water to make it easier. Does it work or is it psychological? I’m not sure.

I have to appreciate Trump for one thing: at least this time it’s not The West that is at war with the Middle East.

We only need that independence because we can’t trust each other. There’s no problem in some countries being more focused on one thing or another, as long as we are collaborating with each other without taking advantage of anyone. Unfortunately, there are still dangerous players in the world and we have to be prepared to defend against them and this capitalistic view we currently have guarantees that there’s always someone taking advantage of someone else.

We need to evolve…

If you only need to worry about the IP changing, then your ISP is not using NAT, or CGNAT as it is better known. I’m pretty sure that you can also use port forwarding, which is not commonly available under CGNAT.

Accessing your home network that is kept inside a NAT by your ISP, without you having to acquire an online server somewhere.
