My whole argument has been that user-space buffering is the sane thing
to do. Most definitely for something like glibc.
The number of people who go "oh, no, my buffer or randomness could be
exposed by insert-odd-situation-here" is approximately zero, and then
the onus should be on *them* to do something special.
Because *they* are special. Precious little snowflake special.

There will be a two week ban on posting in the Fediverse with no exceptions.
All tags have recently suffered from coordinated attacks to make it unusable with junk posts. In one instance I saw an admin I will not name brag that it buried a post about a user. To cite our rules:
> Don't do shit to make the network or this instance unusable.
> Don't spam.
Usually if you just shitposted in low volumes in a tag I wouldn't consider these rules to be violated. However, given the context of what's happening in the federated network, it will be seen as /contributing/ to spam.
This ban may be extended if it continues.
