"Who the hell" writes an OS in assembler in the 80s? Uh, some of the utilities are in C, but compilers were slow and generated slow code back then, and it was quite noticable on a slow machine. When every byte of memory counts, you often need to hand-optimize.

His last product was the OS for the Tandy model 100 in 1983.

Why do you believe this? Because Apple said so? 🤡

I trust them more than my ISP (Verizon). Quad9 is, and I used it for some time as an upstream, but it is markedly slower for me than cloudflare. Those milliseconds add up for an impatient asshole like myself.

I have straight bind running on my network already for local zones, it would be easy enough to switch it to be a root resolver. The only problem is it's a lot slower. I use DoT to cloudflare for non-local zones (using blocky); if you run a root resolver, your DNS traffic is all in the clear. Not like it truly matters but I wouldn't put it past my ISP to do DPI on DNS traffic to try to sell my data.

Hopefully this doesn't affect quad9 or cloud flare DNS, or I might have to go back to running a root resolver. The horrors.

restic is better.

Clearly you've never met yourself.

It's not "for" anything. You asked for help, the community responded. You're a moron for trying to pirate on android, full stop. Goodbye.

I am contributing something useful, you're just refusing to hear it. And nope, I speak three languages.

Enjoy being ignorant and wondering why you can't do anything effectively, then.
