UNIX time uses a Julian calendar date as a reference, but is independent after that.

As for the 13 month calendar, it's about as nice as cloverleaf interchanges: appealing because it's symmetrical, terrible in practice. Having the days of the month always align to the same weekday means leap years would make things even worse because every 4 years the entire calendar shifts. And if you skip the leap day as a holiday then you just make calculating dates from an epoch like UNIX time even more convoluted.

If you don't have a handy shelter and you can't get off planet/to the station/out of system, you can dig underground with a terrain manipulator and as long as you stay out of sight it should work the same as entering a shelter - the Sentinels can't find you.

Except for those damn dogs that will clip through terrain to ram you.

It was a very linear story, too.

IIRC those were the non-eBPF versions of the sensor.

It has a little bit to do with the OS. Windows does not have the same sandboxing capability for modules that Linux provides. The fact that the sensor needs to run in ring 0 is a problem, and eBPF at least mitigates much of the issue in Linux. But I think you meant that CrowdStrike is by no means blameless, and I agree - they have a long history of shitty implementations, and rightly deserve to be the focus of our anger.

Only 2. But you'll be shocked at how many losses the team had in the last 5 years!

Since FF 6 and 7 have already been mentioned, I'm going to give a honorable mention to Shining Force.

No no, you see they are predicting that they'll make things so bad that 4 in 10 will need hospitalization. In other words they're threatening to beat up one third of Hoosiers.
