You can block it with a carefully-crafted userscript that hooks the fetch API and returns fake responses for the svc event, but then Reddit starts flagging your IP address as a bot and demands you log in to an account to prove otherwise. You can’t win.

when you do have big problems its still kind of annoying

Or small problems. Very annoying small problems. Like GTK 4 windows freezing when you try to close them.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Trump supporters: “that’s fine, the president isn’t congress”

Hellwig was a bit crusty about being overruled by Torvalds, it seems.

Gamers complain about cancel culture, but they’re the first to demand changes and threaten to boycott a game for daring to include any “woke” (diverse character) content.

It’s absurdly ironic and hypocritical.

yq can do both JSON and YAML :)

It’s not as useful, sadly. Nohup disconnects standard input, output, and error. With screen or tmux, you can reattach them later.

Who says it can’t be?

What’s next, schools? Oh, wait. Well, surely not public infra—nevermind. At least kids are safe? No? All right then.

More or less, minus the CGI.

In late-stage capitalism, they are.

“We have thoroughly investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing. On an unrelated note, is anybody willing to sell us some more white phosphorus?”

It’s not the Chromium team. Google could have added JPEG XL to Android, but that’s been stalled for nearly two years with zero explanation as for why.

The whole thing smells of managerial interference somewhere.

Interestingly, the reference implementation libjxl appears to be a Google project. They’re all over the patents file and CLA.

If Mozilla isn’t merely being hopeful about having the same team create a Rust implementation, that might actually mean there’s internal interest within Google. Assuming they pull it off, the bullshit reason for refusing to add JPEG XL to Chromium might finally stop being a blocker.

And yet, some people vehemently refute that it’s a genocide…

There’s always BSD, Hurd, Darwin… or NT 🤮

The kernel. I can take or leave most things, but I’m not going back to the days of writing directly into memory-mapped registers.

I understand his experience is hard to match, we all have something in our lives we’re that good at

At some point, that mix of experience and ego becomes a significant liability. He’s directly hurting the adoption of Rust in the kernel, while the C code he’s responsible for is full of problems that would have been impossible if written in safe Rust.

100%. Whatever Intel does at this point, I don’t trust it to be a fix so much as a mitigation or attempt to delay the inevitable until a few years after the warranty period.

If it’s possible for people to return their 13th/14th gen processor and trade up for a 12th gen, that would be the safest solution.
