SSDs aren't just that simple. All of them have at least some SLC area, usually as cache, that's in base 2. But the rest of the SSD can be SLC base 2, MLC base 4, TLC base 8 or even QLC base 16.

And overall it's still base 2 because each SSDs pretend one block of base 4 is just two blocks of base 2, and accordingly they pretend a block of base 16 is just 8 blocks of base 2 storage.

ESS is a product built on top of a precisely tuned synapse with custom additions, but it's still synapse underneath.

Fdroid only gained the ability to auto update apps a while ago, so that's why you got that prompt.

Also, if the permissions an app requests change, fdroid can't always auto-update it.

In timekeeping, there are so called stratums to describe how correct a clock is.

Stratum 0 is a physical process, an inherent property of the universe. An atomic clock would be stratum 0.

Stratum 1 is a clock defined based on a stratum 0 clock. For example, GPS clocks are usually stratum 1, so are timeservers at universities with atomic clocks.

Stratum 2 is a clock defined based on a stratum 1 clock, for example, your router's ntp server if it syncs its time based on gps or a university's timeserver.

So if we adopt this jargon for units:

Meter is a stratum 1 unit, defined based on the stratum 0 properties of lightspeed and cesium resonance.

Inch is a stratum 2 unit, defined based on the stratum 1 meter.

You need to be able to have multiple nodes in one LAN access ports on each others' containers without exposing those to the world and without using additional firewalls in front of the nodes.

That's why kubernetes ended up removing docker support and instead recommends podman or using containerd natively.

There's no alternative for 0.0.0.0 and a firewall if you're e.g. using kubernetes.

That assumes you're on some VPS with a hardware firewall in front.

Often enough you're on a dedicated server that's directly exposed to the internet, with those iptables rules being the only thing standing between your services and the internet.

No. You can fix the dehydration relatively easily by just giving the person liquid intravenously.

But the primary way rabies kills you is liquifying your brain, which is independent of how hydrated you are.

In some languages, it's actually common to say US-American to clearly specify what is meant.

The EU demands that alternative app stores or individual users can do exactly that.

Apple disagrees.

That's precisely why this is back in court.

It being totally without rules or terms is exactly what the EU demanded.
