I still believe there are some (i agree not many) reasons to still use Alpine Linux. The obvious is the small size i think still maybe even smaller than Ubuntu. But more importantly the security, it focuses on security with features such as stack-smashing protection, address space layout randomization, and a hardened kernel. And isn't performance still decent for being lightweight and fast? And of course the package management apk manager. Isn't it smaller package repository than other distributions still?

This article is interesting. It discusses the history of firearms and the evolution of bullet sizes. Like how certain calibers have fallen out of use over time and why some are popular while others are not with gun enthusiasts. I found the history of some odd calibers like .32 acp , .380 acp, and the .38 special kinda fascinating. This author definitely is a gun enthusiasts but makes many interesting points regarding the historical background of calibers. Cool read thanks!
