well; if I start with this: https://www.hvsc.c64.org/downloads Which is 58K songs in 80MB (which is enough to last several lifetimes)

Or I could get a mod tracker and some files from ftp://ftp.modland.com/pub/playlists/ and I would have the ability in a few 100 MB to make the type of music I enjoy (It would take 150GB to get every sample of every sound used in the entire world)

Hit up https://www.pouet.net/prodlist.php if you want a bunch of awesome demos ranging from 32 bytes all the way up to 32KB per

unxz.c is 60KB of code and everything you need to build it from source (with literally nothing but hex) only takes up 1.4MB of space https://github.com/oriansj/stage0-posix/

and with unxz, untar and ungz basically Text compresses extremely well and you’ll have a hundred lifetimes of books thanks to https://gutenberg.org/

But movies like S1m0ne (2002), Sneakers (1992) and Colossus - The Forbin Project (1970) could also fit too.

If you can alt-p, type the names of programs, alt-tab and alt-shift-tab: i3 or sway

if not xfce is as user friendly as a window’s user needs.

ERC, why leave Emacs?

Didn’t Guix solve that one with its full-source bootstrap?

not exactly, as there are rust compilers like mrust that don’t actually have borrow checkers and virtually none of those safety checks actually occur and there is a question of if the gcc rust compiler would be implementing that feature into the compiler.

So, that would be an attribution failure; as it isn’t required by the language but the most popular rust compiler does include that feature.

But yes, more compilers would likely benefit the languages they support by also adopting that feature by default.

Well rust has a borrow checker which does make some memory bugs harder to create but to say that rust solved any of the known open problems in computer security. The answer is clearly no. It just copied some good ideas from ocaml into C++ and got some good marketing.

borrow checkers also already exist for C/C++/etc [just most people don’t use them]

so, slightly safer defaults than C/C++ but doesn’t contain any new/unique security magic.

50MB for a sub POSIX kernel and a shell prompt for a 50MB ISO image that has less functionality than a 4KB kernel (L4SEC) which has actual formal proofs of correctness.

Well, I guess it has Rust as a selling point but that isn’t something that should matter if the goal is real security.
