Obligatory XKCD - https://xkcd.com/538/

It's not a war

i've long had similar difficulties with getting deliveries during business hours and had to opt for weekend pickups but for a long time the carriers facilities were in the suburbs and I don't own a car.

the people are already there. money is how you get them to give you what you want.

"I am an amateur astronomer and use a >100K$ telescope (controled by a windows 11 computer)"

"That's a day (300-600 miles) for local driving"
there's no way local delivery in a big city or metro area is doing that much mileage daily in a 12 hour day

"what if we don't bother about any kernels or anything, just have systemd followed by emacs? And systemd calls can be made from emacs?"
