One hand for base 12; two for 24! Actually I just use one hand, so my left hand would probably become a second digit. 144 counts on my fingers ftw!

what would happen to distribution X if Canonical suddeny made Ubuntu closed-source?
I believe Linux Mint has done some planning for if Ubuntu does something like that - probably to rebase off Debian in that case
Thank you! I just want to say, I've also been curious about ipv6 every now and again for a long time, and this thread has helped me to understand more.
Happy to have more of the y'all in English English, but personally I'd like an uptake in youse.
I count with my thumb on my finger sections (what do you call them?) rather than my fingertips. So one hand comfortably counts to 12. (You can do a similar version, with a little more stretching, to count to 16... but I can't be bothered, and besides, I like 12.)
Why would you include your hostname in the hash? That just sounds like an invitations for a mistake to leak semi-private telemetry data.
Come to think of it.... Isn't obscured telemetry exactly what your suggestion is doing? If they get or guess your hostname by other means, then they have a nice timestamped request from you, signed with your hostname, every second
Not to mention privacy wise that isn't a very good idea.

I saw what I think was a plugin for osmand that would share your location in real time via telegram. Took a look, it looked okay, but people I know don't use telegram (or osmand - not necessary but helpful) so forgot it. Sorry, I can't find it now within osmand or fdroid!
There's a few location sharing apps in fdroid, maybe one of them could be an option? Dunno about iOS support, but the way the telegram/osm one worked is the receiver could have it link through to osmand or just click the link in telegram to see the map location online.
Osmand does have a generic facility for location uploads: within the track recording plugin. You can self-host a custom solution that takes a URL input to log a location point. Sorry, that's probably more work than you want! I certainly gave up on it!
Out of interest, within a community (that's what a sublemmy is called, right?) is there any facility to prioritise votes of people subscribed to that community over those not subscribed? Was that the thing with brigading before (sorry, didn't realise this before!) that mods can moderate and ban posts/posters but not votes/voters?
Is youse a thing I'm Pennsylvania and/or Kentucky? I was thinking a la the land of the free, home of the brave (Scotland)
