It haunts me in my dreams

We kinda do, with GPS satellites that have to correct their clocks due to the effects of gravity and speed

And communication with space probes

I use 24h clocks and ISO 8601 dates almost always

Honestly, I’m better at organizing code than I am my actual life

Timezones make intuitive sense for humans

UTC / Unix timestamps make intuitive sense for computers

The issue is bridging the gap

It’s an explicit “opt-out” by the OP, such that their content cannot (legally) be used to train LLMs or such (Chat GPT, Github Copilot, etc)

Well, that’s what I assumed until i read the license terms. It doesn’t explicitly mention AI or LLMs, but it does say

You may not use the material for commercial purposes

Which i assume has the same limitations for AI training, for commercial AI

I was using a slightly risky command to delete unneeded packages, and for some reason ca-certificates was on the list

At least the fix was simple. Boot the rescue iso and reinstall them
