Are there any filesystems that can actually record a meaningful ns modification time? I find discussions claiming this:
- XFS and EXT3: second precision - EXT4: millisecond precision - NTFS: 100ns precision - APFS: 1 ns precision But also notes that the precision is likely to exceed the accuracy by many times on real systems.

Vampiric capital and undead corporate persons abuse the lives and control the thoughts of homo faber. Ideas, once born, become abortifacients against new conceptions.
