## Useful for

- Boot Moxnox in QEMU to explore its NT-like syscall interface and GNU base system.
- Install Moxnox on a spare partition with btrfs and an EFI boot entry.
- Build Moxnox from source in the provided Docker cross-compiler containers.

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-27 (UTC), 10:04–10:53: 51 → 52 stars (+1). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +15 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 5 days old and already has 52 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 0
- Issues and pull requests: 0
- Watchers: 1
- Average over the last week: 10 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 5
- Latest release: v1.0 (2026-10-26)

## Stars per day, last 6 days (oldest → newest, today is partial)

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
