I use cash almost everywhere I can, and want as much as possible to avoid the pervasive data collection and handover that you endorse.
I don’t agree that “they already know” - and fight such efforts instead of taking them for granted.
The IRS doesn’t know how much you owe. You may choose to file in different ways, have side gigs, spend money on deductible or credit-eligible expenses, or qualify for certain breaks. It’s your choice to depreciate or carry over certain items. Only you know that your spare room was rented for 5 months or the cost basis for the bitcoin you sold.
if you work one job and have no complications like that - the 1040EZ is what you’re asking for. But still not the government’s role to tell you or sign your name to it.

In 10MB ethernet days, they might have been directly driven by the signal on the wire. After that, they’re pretty much just “a flashing mechanism turned on when activity is present”

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What communities or instances do you have blocked to make your Lemmy experience more enjoyable?
231·9 months agoThis is why i think subject tagging for communities makes a lot of sense. I want to remove anime, k-pop, video games, sports, region-specific, tv/movie, “anarchy”/“everything sucks” and plenty of other entire categories from my “All” feed, but blocking is a never-ending effort.

yes, it looks at a fine-grained clock, usually a cycle counter provided by the CPU for this purpose, to aggregate total on-cpu time for each process.
I think a lot of modern kernels are “tickless” - they don’t use a timeslice timer, and only context switch on IO interrupt, process yield, or when timeouts are specifically requested (including capping cpu-bound processes). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tickless_kernel
