Yes, if I recall correctly the Darwin kernel does implement the POSIX standard.

Agreed, and since we’re at it, same for compilers honestly.

Yeah if we narrow the question down to specifically consumer level OSes, then the best chance would be if some really big conglomerate decided they needed their own independent thing. Like Google did with Fuchsia, next time Samsung or the Chinese State perhaps. But even then a scenario like Android or Tizen would be the more likely outcome, a different userland implemented on Linux.

The Systems group at ETH Zürich where I studied had their own operating system, called Barrelfish because apparently making an OS is as easy as shooting fish in a barrel to these crazy people (this is meant positively, I hold them in high esteem). Side note they also made their own computer called Enzian. The combination of both is intended to allow them to do research off the beaten path with some different core design choices.

And we built our own student versions of barrelfish-like OSes during a course, if I recall correctly we only used their boot code to get the ARM cores on the Pandaboards up and running, then everything else was individual per group of four. We all had a lot of fun with our very individual memory management bugs, filesystem bugs, shell bugs, capability bugs and so on :-)

PS: There is also Redox OS where some people wrote an OS completely in Rust.

You haven’t mentioned what sort of access link or speed you have, that seems very relevant here.

For my 1Gbit/s fiber connection the Edgerouter 6P has been pretty good. It has an SFP port and can route 1 Gbit/s of traffic without issue and my dual-stack setup works well too.

The only significant downside is that its switching is slow, it has no hw support. So I put my NAS on a separate subnet instead so that the traffic to it can be routed instead.

And why isn’t “a male” just as bad?

It is.

And what’s intrinsically wrong about those two as a noun?

Because you’re reducing people to their characteristics of identity.

Why is it ok to call someone “a fire fighter“, “a journalist”, and not “a female”?

Because those are characteristics of their chosen functions.

It seems pretty easy to me, and I’m not even a native speaker.

My wife tells me that using as an adjective is just as bad and that I should always say “woman”, e.g. a woman politician and never a female politician.

Using a noun as an adjective is just weird, honestly.

Premium product experience

The hardware is pretty premium, but the software is such a pain. As a result the overall experience is just “okay”.

In the 15 years I’ve had a mobile phone I have changed around 5 times. But the last one was just an upgrade that added 40 GB of data while roaming in the EU, US and Canada to my previous unlimited plan for Switzerland only. That increased the cost from 20 to 25 Swiss Franks per month.

Wow the SEO world is really sick

The easy way to get a clean copy is to download it directly from Microsoft. You can generate a valid download link using the follwing website (just make sure the domain of the generated link points to Microsoft and nothing bad can happen)

Ah so you didn’t actually answer OPs question, I misunderstood your intent.

Oh how does one use Signal as a Telegram Client?

I thought this was supposed to be here: https://git.mihon.dev/mihon, without github

Tachiyomi used to have that, but nowadays it only asks for access to one folder and does all its business in there.

These people are so hardcore, I love reading their news, there is at least one thing that makes me go WTF in a positive sense every time

You want that thread, not this one

Victorianox

It’s called Victorinox, from “Victor-” from Victoria, the founders Mother, and “-inox” from “acier inoxydable”, i.e., non-oxidizing steel.

Regular bathing isn’t what you want, frequent bathing, that’s important. What good is it if someone bathes with great regularity on the first of every month?
