I see people talking about doas saying it’s just like sudo but with less features. I’m just wondering if there is any situation where you should use doas or if it’s just personal preference.

    MiB and MB are not the same thing. Just that many CLI tools in linux use MiB instead so I just got used to typing MiB lol.

      The difference between MB and MiB is 24 kilobytes

      My point is that if you’re already estimating, the difference is negligible

        24 kibibytes. I dislike the annoying difference between kiB and kB, etc, etc as I also think in kB and MB as the binary values because that’s how I was taught for many years.

          Again. If you’re not being accurate then theres no point jn being precise

            You’re replying to the wrong person. I added some info over the difference between your comment and someone else’s acktually comment.

            I don’t care either way; an approximation in MiB and MB is the same difference to me. The other person and yourself have got into a debate about nothing in my opinion.
