That's still wrong and you've solved nothing. 32 Gb = 32 000 000 000 bits = 4 000 000 000 bytes = 4 GB (real SI gigabytes).
If you think 32 Gb are binary gibibits, then you've disagreed with Ethernet (e.g. 2.5 Gb/s), Thunderbolt (e.g. 40 Gb/s), and other communication standards.
That's why I keep hammering on the same point: Creating context-dependent prefixes sows endless confusion. The only way to stop the confusion is to respect the real definitions.
> Explorer is just following existing practice. Everybody (to within experimental error) refers to 1024 bytes as a kilobyte, not a kibibyte. If Explorer were to switch to the term kibibyte, it would merely be showing users information in a form they cannot understand, and for what purpose? So you can feel superior because you know what that term means and other people don’t.
Linux (the kernel) has LOTS of functionality anyone barely use or even know. Without that, there's no tooling around this functionality, no adoption. Not even all TCP socket options (setsockopt) are documented!
Systemd pushed forward proper usage of capabilities, better watchdogs (in a broader sense, as systemd supports all kinds of them), isolation, policies, and so on and so forth. You need it all to efficiently control the daemons, and it's great when it's all available in a single suite.
Because of SystemD, you can't use Linux control groups. On systemd systems, only systemd is allowed to touch control groups. I think they even tried to make the kernel enforce this but they failed, so now it just breaks systemd if you do.
Oh, and there's TWO page zooms btw: the one you activate with +/- (or ctrl + +/-), and another one available with touchpad pitch-to-zoom / touchscreens (you can't use it on desktops without touchpad/touchscreen).
Well, THIS blog post page reliably eats the CPU on scrolling, and the scrolling is very jerky, despite it has only text and no other visible elements.
