A) you need the new timezone definition available and pushed everywhere regardless. It doesn't matter what zone the RTC uses.
B) For future events, you need a way to manage what happens when the time zone they're scheduled in changes OR when they change to a new time zone. Microsoft has been terrible at this part on every time zone change I've been aware of (it's hard, but it's not this hard, and the Canadian change was published with enough notice to make it work). But there's no connection to the time zone of the RTC here either.
City manager would be in charge of city business (building and occupancy permits, inspections, billing for services, etc), whereas the Mayor (and/or city council) makes the political decisions (setting the policies the manager executes, etc)
It seems a bit silly to be incorporated with less than a thousand people, but I don't know the local history. If there's not that much to do, the city manager is likely part time, and the mayor probably does mayoral stuff a couple times a month. (Quick monthly meeting + maybe show up to a community event or three)
And the benefit is I didn't have to run new cable. Lots of homes have some twisted pair in the wall, very few have fiber in the wall. Homes from the late 90s on probably have cat5 for phone lines.
Obviously, if something is wrong with your existing cabling, 10g-base-t is probably not going to work either. 10G is probably the limit for twisted pair, but I think it'll hold up as a reasonable speed for a long time.
It's not some Linux specific issue either. FreeBSD has three versions of statfs/fstatsfs/truncate/ftruncate.
A lot of the file related syscalls also have a XXXXat (ex: open/openat) variant taking a directory reference instead of using cwd.
A domain renewal is an update at the registry, but there's no update in DNS at any level. If a domain expires, it would be removed (or at least changed) in the TLD DNS, but the authoritative DNS for the domain wouldn't necessarily update... it would just become orphaned.
Yeah, I can understand the confusion from your perspective. You don't have the context. The US has a broad history of discrimination.
In 2026, there's a lot less. In the 1960s it was still common for country clubs (fancy golf courses and social clubs, more or less) to prohibit Jewish people from joining; this was an issue at some clubs even into the 1990s.
(Since you brought up Italians), Italians were also discriminated against in the US, but more in the 1800s and early 1900s; by the 1960s, Italians were largely integrated, although as many were/are Catholic, they would be excluded from 'WASP' - White Anglo Saxon Protestant. Around the same time that Italians faced a lot of discrimination, Irish did too, as they were also largely Catholic.
If you're familiar with redlining as a discrimination practice, to give you an idea of popular discrimination targets, Wikipedia says:
> Redlining has mostly been directed against African Americans, as well as Mexican Americans in the Southwestern United States, Jewish Americans, and Italian Americans
But that's not an exclusive list of discrimantion targets, just those that were large enough to target when home lending started getting more organized.
You also had racial covenants prohibiting selling land to non-whites, where that would exclude African Americans, most Asians, often Jewish people, maybe Hispanics and Italians and Irish. Those were made void in 1968, but it takes time and effort to remove them from deeds, so you might run into them.
Seems unlikely to happen since the battery is part of a space optimization problem.
Maybe as battery technology matures, the benefits of a set of standarized sizes will win over per-model (sometimes per-trim) sizes.
But we used to have standardized headlights and those went away, so I don't have much hope.
There's about 70 different sizes for these standard 12V lead-acid batteries though. And most of my consumer UPS units hide the battery behind a security screw and don't list the battery size in the docs. If the battery was removed and not replaced, it's harder than it should be to find a new one.
I don't know for sure about POTS, because the pricing was prohibitive, but my local telco certainly did not use batteries at the remote terminal to keep ADSL online... when utility power dropped, ADSL dropped instantly, even when the outages were under 10 seconds.
My local wireless telcos provide about 4-8 hours of wireless after utility power drops. Not great, but better than what I got from ADSL + voip.
Perception on this has shifted quite a bit. Today, I don't know that this would be an issue (but maybe I'm wrong). In the early days of Hollywood, Jewish people tended to work behind the scenes and not as leading characters. In the 1960s things were changing.
> if the Company is suggesting it out of pure hype of AI mania.
IMHO, this is pretty transparently r&d for better? data transmission attached to the trend of the day that does a lot of data transmission. Where better is higher bandwidth, lower cost, etc.
AI is the current trendy thing, but better data transmission will always have applications.
Thankfully, usenet usage is way down, so we won't need to worry about this. ;p
Have had it happen on the Essential Phone and my MIL's Chromebook (don't remember the model). At least with the Chromebook, you can open it with a screwdriver and pull the battery. Better than waiting however many days for the battery to fully die so the EC resets.
Those companies don't rely on fair use. They rely on the DMCA. There's an agreement with the user for use of content where the user controls the rights, and anything that users upload where someone else controls the rights, DMCA protects the site as long as they follow the procedures.
It could potentially do tone dialing, but that does need more hardware. A modern telephone modem is basically 8-bit 8000Hz PCM and DSP algorithms, but an 300 baud modem uses 4 fixed frequencies (from wikipedia):
> The originating station used a mark tone of 1,270 Hz and a space tone of 1,070 Hz.
> The answering station used a mark tone of 2,225 Hz and a space tone of 2,025 Hz.
DTMF dialing needs 7 different frequencies and you have to generate two frequencies at once. You might also want to detect dialtone which fully standardized in the 80s and anyway is a different set of frequencies.
Even if you had tone dialing, a lot of people had lines without tone dialing in the 80s, so it's going to be a fringe feature ... and if you already have to manually pick up the phone, because the modem lacks a hook switch and a duplex, might as well also dial the phone manually too.
There's a lot of edge cases to bite people still.
That said, something like 50% of users have working v6 now, which helps to file down the edges. Growth of v6 in the last 10 years has been much more significant than the previous 10 years. I suspect the next 10 years will be pretty significant, too.
I don't think many organizations are in a position to force adoption though.
You have mandates from say US government for government services and vendors and similar in some other countries. Some countries can force it through strong regulations on equipment sales. And then there's Jio (and maybe other ISPs) that have significant market power in some locales and a significant lack of v4 resources and can strongly encourage vendors and partners to support v6 for better service to users on their network.
Personally, I had major issues with the 5g wan equipment and my network as well as a snafu with ordering... Sales rep put in the order for a static ip with a ssn based SMB account, but that got removed during provisioning and couldn't be added back. (And then billing issues because the account didn't get cancelled properly, either)
If they have enough v4 for all their customers, sure fine.
It wasn't always like this, but it was for me the last time I tried.
SSH is dead simple to detect, because the server sends an outbound greeting in ASCII text; and the client doesn't send anything until it gets the greeting. The binary protocol does not look like a TLS stream at all either.
I always come back with "you're not an engineer, engineers wear stripey hats"
In the diagram for 8F Squared, there's a capacitor at every other junction between word lines and bit lines. If the lines (and inter line spacing) are 2F wide, you have one bit in a 2Fx4F rectangle, or one bit per 8F squared.
In the diagram for 6F Squared, there's a capacitor at every bit line on every other word line. If the lines (and inter line spacing) are 2F wide, you have one bits in each 2Fx3F Rectangle, or one bit per 6F squared. (I guess the word lines without bits are needed for spacing or to drive the transistor or maybe it's just illustration and doesn't mean much)
In the diagram for 4F Squared, there's a transistor at every bit line on every word line. Now you have a bit in every 2Fx2F square, or one bit per 4F Squared.
If you can make dram in all three styles with the same F, 4F squared is twice the density as 8F squared. If the F doesn't hold constant, it's squishier, of course.

I was not really active in computing back then, so I don't know how widely distributed these releases were, but NT was clearly gestating longer than Win32s.
It kind of depends on the document format. PDF tends to display well over time (but there can be issues with complex documents and/or missing fonts), spreadsheets and word processor files are likely to be openable, but they may not display as they originally did. HTML is likely to look rather different than it did when written, but it'll probably be legible.
It doesn't sound like they've stopped investing in research in general. Just one specific area.
"We've been working on this for decades and can't figure out how to commercialize it, so we're going to try different things" is a healthy result, even if other companies got different results.
