When sadness I want to inform you of the passing of Dr. David L. Mills, inventor of a thing that keeps the internet together without fail, as you all know.

And Doctor David Mills has been instrumental in that. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/01/inventor-of-ntp-protocol-that-keeps-time-on-billions-of-devices-dies-at-age-85/ -- Ruben Sent from my iPad
