You surely need to explicitly cause systemd to process changes after writing to a file. I would be very surprised if it reacted to file system changes automatically.

For example, I recall that I need to execute a command like systemctl daemon-reload after editing a service file: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/364782/what-does-systemctl-daemon-reload-do

You might get more useful information from resources like https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/systemctl.1.html

Linear Tape-Open (LTO) has significant advantages in certain situations, such that you have to make specific design decisions if you don't want people to use it: https://www.chia.net/2018/06/11/the-asic-resistance-of-proof-of-space/ https://chiaforum.com/t/lto-tape-drive-as-a-storage-option/12829/3

I will always remember stumbling upon this video ("HP Protecting your business data (or Disc vs Tape)"): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHP_bKJx2xg

I did try to reduce the impact of what I eat, but I haven't found a replacement for using chicken with a slow cooker. Beef also tastes good, especially when I eat at a restaurant.

I have stopped making hamburgers on my own (and replaced them with fish or soup), but I haven't put more effort into reducing my impact recently.

"password" is the third password someone would try.

https://80000hours.org/ probably has information relevant to you, and they do have specific comments about IT roles, and many careers they talk about are related to computers in some way.

I believe Skiff would automatically start using end to end encryption when it was available, without any user needing to enable it for any specific email, using the Web Key Directory standard: https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org/blob/1634bea9d2a66ef5804b68d18d4218e0b7a8b806/docs/email.md#openpgp-compatible-services

It's not good for me that an email provider that supports that is undergoing dramatic changes, as an open standard that protects my privacy is more useful when it is used with more services.

AppImage has definitely made my life a lot easier in several cases!

I think both macOS and Android are inherently superior to anything I've ever used that was created by Microsoft.

Multiple versions of macOS are UNIX® Certified Products according to the institution that publishes the POSIX standards: https://www.opengroup.org/openbrand/register/brand3688.htm https://www.opengroup.org/openbrand/register/brand3673.htm

"Android is a mobile operating system based on a modified version of the Linux kernel" so it is surely easier to liberate yourself by using Android than by using Microsoft Windows.

This is convenient when you're sleepy but your neck may suffer for it

At least you can request that the items be sorted!
