I've never been entirely clear whether this referred to 'everything within the Plan9 organisation' or 'everything visible from a Plan9 machine including external independent systems'. The former is much easier to achieve. So much of the nonuniformity is because of competing administrative domains.

"Everything that was on my machine was uniform because I wrote it from scratch to work the way my brain works"

Yeah… that doesn't scale, no matter who you are, mr "I refuse employment unless my employer gives me 'r' as login name".

You seem so angry for such a bizarre reason.

Maybe he used to have 'r' as login.

Irrationality and denying reality annoys me.

>mr "I refuse employment unless my employer gives me 'r' as login name".

And what's that to you?

Another sign that he lives in his own arrogant world. A separate arrogant world that affects other people.
