A new version of Wayback has been released.
You need Wayback to run the thousands of Xorg coded programs written before Wayland was conceived.
I only need this on my SBC. I run Xorg in MX-Linux

I've been reading man pages for a few decades, and never bothered to read the bit at the bottom where it says "press h for help".
And looky loo, `man` has vim-like keybindings, so you can search for stuff, among other things. I'm a doofus.

#Linux / #Unix / #POSIX needs, if not a fully transactional file system, then *at the very least* a way to atomically write to a single file without potentially corrupting it if there's a crash or power failure in the middle of the operation.

I should not have to worry about my files either going corrupt or losing their metadata (permissions, comments, tags, ratings, etc) if I edit them. That should not be a thing on terabyte-sized SSDs in 2025, for goodness' sake.

@beoz
Danke für den wichtigen, ausführlichen Artikel. Ich habe meinen #y2k38-Beitrag gleich aktualisiert!

Die #Alstom-Begründung mit #POSIX als "Bösewicht" halte ich noch aus anderem Grund für nicht nachvollziehbar: Ich vermute, dass "32-Bit" oder "POSIX" weder Anforderungen noch explizit (inkl. Risiken) erwähnt wurden.

(Habe das Urteil aber nicht selbst gelesen.)

Was haben Fernseher, die sich selbst ausschalten; Programme, deren Texte plötzlich in einer unleserlichen Schrift erscheinen; und Züge mit falschen Anzeigen

Why should you care about the POSIX Shell? Because it is the *system* Shell for POSIX systems!

It's the default Shell when executing commands with e.g., cron, in a Makefile or Dockerfile, the Ansible Shell module, and anything else that uses the system(3) call explicitly like C, m4, AWK, Perl, Tcl, Python, etc. Some will honor the SHELL environment variable (like ex), some will not (like ed).
