I haven't had it fail once, and I've created many addresses. I do have a custom domain hooked up to my iCloud account, if that is making any difference, I don't know.

tcp/443 is likely an open port on the target service (Dynamodb based on the domain name). TLS is not involved. ICMP ECHO would be a bad choice as it is deprioritized by routers[0].…

Doesn't look like this is a ping[0]! Which is good. Rather it is a socket stream connecting over tcp/443. Ping (ICMP) would be a poor metric. [0] https://github.com/mda590/cloudpin…

I see where you're going with your question, but like Windows' Services/scheduled tasks, most of those 'users' don't have a $HOME folder. Not to say they couldn't have one!

Why not both, like Windows? $HOME/.tmp for user operations and /tmp for system operations? EDIT: I see from other posters it can be done. Why the heck isn't this the default?!

> OS will try to move it in swapspace if memory gets low That defeats the idea GP presented.

You'd need to pin pages in physical memory to guarantee it stays in physical memory. What happens if an 'attacker' (or accidental user) exceeds available physical memory? OOM Kill …

Windows shipped on DVDs. I'm not sure why you made your comment. Of course a system must support it, and plenty of ~20 year old systems did.

You're not limited to 650MB provided you use UDF rather than ISO 9660. UDF supports up to 16 EiB. It's still a "real" ISO, but obviously you'd need to stay within DVD size limits t…
