I’m sorry to be the one who breaks this to you but linux is as binary as you can get. Ever wondered what 64 bit means? Bits are quite binary, that’s kind of the definition
With the introduction of the number 2, we goin’ TRINARY!
Fun fact, the reason internet speeds are measure in Bits, not Bytes, is that 8 bits to a Byte is entirely arbitrary and could be changed if there was will to do so.
the only realistic reason i can think of this, is to describe over the wire speed. Shits easy enough to convert once you hit the end point though, so meh.
Not really. It’s easier to measure a count of a thing than it is to measure a count of groups of 8 of a thing. It’s just easier to display when you’re not wasting the cycles to devide it by 8 all the time.

brb, going to rm -rf /bin
Afterwards you will be running a 63bit system. I challenge you to find the others.

internet speeds are measured in bits so they can artificially inflate numbers.
cause selling 100mbit sounds a lot meatier than selling 12mbyte.
100 milibits lmao
I mean, yeah. That too.
Not quite, network speeds have been measured in bps since the day the first packet got out of its egg.

Build from source tho
64bit… no wonder there are complaints about too many genders.
Linux on an analog computer
i prefer my binaries to stay inside the computer. binary does not belong in brain >n<
