Better still, if Unix time tracked TAI (monotonically increasing every SI second), and Leap Seconds were handled in a distributed database much like time zones - possibly even the same one we all use anyway.

That paper was published in 2014. The reference Opus encoder has certainly had a number of improvements that affect sound quality since then, whereas very few AAC implementations have.

Heh, "funrollloops" reminds me of recompiling FreeBSD 4 on my thinkpad back in the early aughts. The word made me imagine some sort of processed breakfast cereal with too many additives.

Indeed, but some scoundrel is probably scraping this page and having an LLM prepare their pitch as to how manufacturers could improve Ad / Data collection revenue by bypassing these suggestions :/

I'm not certain about CLI, but Plasma 6.6 does allow preferences / settings to be exported & restored / shared.

Prefix-w works, or did you want something more?

also: no "C", and no "rust", despite being a portmanteau of both these other languages names :)

I disagree, the article clearly states:

      Montgomery and others were careful to say that Linux ID 
      will not magically prevent another xz‑style supply‑chain 
      attack, but they argue it materially raises the cost.

Really nicely done. I usually settle for

    xclock -analog -update 1 -norender -hl grey -fg grey -bg black

(You can put a `TZ="Wherever"` variable at the start for different timezones, and those that don't like the seconds ticking can pass e.g. 0.01 instead of 1 to the -update option).

Brits of a certain age will recall (and might appreciate) the clock faces available at https://625.uk.com/tv_logos/flash2.htm#clocks too.

Those are not "speed" cameras, they're to enforce daily payment (or fines) for driving in "Ultra Low Emissions Zone" areas in non-compliant vehicles. The area covers all 32 London Boroughs, around 1,500 km² (580 square miles), - affecting approximately 9 Million people.

Nice one, OpenRailTimes[0] is a similar style, but split in to smaller local sections by rail company and area.

I also like SignalBox[1] maps for their more traditional geographic layout, and for "less map -- more data", with accurate times that trains pass through stations and junctions, then RealTimeTrains[2] is hard to beat.

Good call, I've had success with:

     pandoc -f gfm -t typst -o file.typ file.md

and as you'll know it's easy to add a Template if required.
