Reminded me of the early days YT videos ๐Ÿ˜‚

Seems about right

  • BTRFS snapshots are a god send. I really have no idea how many times they've saved me from a complete reinstall. One did happen about a week ago, I completely messed up my Void install. Bring back snapshots with Timeshift, everything is good to go!

    Whelp, I guess they found our secret boys

  • Certificate! ๐Ÿค˜ ๐Ÿ˜Ž

  • Everyone does... it's funny how it eventually works.

  • Underrated comment.

  • Well, just goes to show you, never buy a Mac ๐Ÿ˜‚.

  • On a long enough time scale, yes, it will get tidy.

  • It can be done with AI, but it's far more work than actually manually syncing it, since the lyrics prompt is not exactly what is written on the screen. Some parts are deliberately missing, since I presume that the output was garbage with that additional text. Like "https" is missing in some parts.

  • It's still funny ๐Ÿ˜‚... and a real banger, especially the TLS part ๐Ÿค˜.

    Iron based copper

    Cheap Chinese devices have iron instead of copper in wires. Aluminium is not suitable, since you can't solder it, otherwise I'm sure they'd use that as well.

    Don't be fooled if the strands are copper colored, that could be either varnish or a thin layer of electroplated copper. A magnet test will reveal the truth. If it can't be soldered, it's most probably Aluminum. I've seen that as well, but only on wires that use some sort of a clamp-on connector at both ends... basically, it was never meant to be soldered.

  • Uuu, that's a nice take, I like that.

    Too bad it might not be a joke in the future.

  • The reality is that there are many other wars around the world, yet the Russians are the only ones getting sanctioned. They should set an example by sanctioning everyone that currently works for a company that enables any military. Maybe then the world will see how stupid this whole thing is.

  • No, you gotta build everything from the big bang onwards.

  • Yeah? Try it with building wheel for wxPython apps for 10 arches.

  • Either is fine... more or less...

    Harald Welte (co-creator netfilter/iptable and free software foundation awarded developer) published his open letter as public take about recently events in the Linux Kernel Developer Community around

    TLDR;

    It literally hurts me personally to see this happening. It's like a kick in the gut. I used to be proud about having had an involvement with the Linux kernel community in a previous life. This doesn't feel like the community I remember being part of.

  • Even if that is the case, that doesn't mean that their code or the code they approve is garbage. I don't care who you are or who you work for. What you do in your life outside of open source is your own business. Quality of code is what matters in open source.

  • They do have troll factories there to influence public opinion.

    In the Linux kernel? No. Definitely not. Maybe you'd like to see what happened after they got removed from the maintainers list, it was spam and trolling, and that is not OK in any scenario.

    The problem is this still leads to questions about transparency about the project in general and how this decision was made and whether it was made by those involved in the project or was an order from the US government.

    My personal belief is that it was an advice by the lawyers and they went with it balls in because who would care about a few Russian maintainers, right ๐Ÿ˜’. Linus probably probably put GHK to it, as to not be him that does the PR, split the heat that may come their way, which it did.

    I coldheartedly believe that Linus meant what he said since there was no apology afterwards. Russians are bad in general and they all think the same, they support Puttin.

  • They have been stripped of a role because of a thing that has nothing to do with their competence to contribute to the project. Quality of code is all that matters in open source, not who you are or who you work for.

  • Sums up my feelings perfectly.

    Mine as well.

    Not that invested that much, but I seriously, I thought Linus was better than this... I wouldn't expect this even from Stalman to be honest, this is new level of low if you ask me.

    What kind of a hellish timeline is this?

    I have no idea... if everything is dictated by corps and governments (at least ones that we can't trust with simple things, such as healthcare), I really have really lost all faith in humanity as a whole... not because they're less human individually, but because no one sees anything wrong with this, in general...

    Official statement regarding recent Greg' commit 6e90b675cf942e from Serge Semin

    Hello Linux-kernel community,

    I am sure you have already heard the news caused by the recent Greg' commit 6e90b675cf942e ("MAINTAINERS: Remove some entries due to various compliance requirements."). As you may have noticed the change concerned some of the Ru-related developers removal from the list of the official kernel maintainers, including me.

    The community members rightly noted that the quite short commit log contained very vague terms with no explicit change justification. No matter how hard I tried to get more details about the reason, alas the senior maintainer I was discussing the matter with haven't given an explanation to what compliance requirements that was. I won't cite the exact emails text since it was a private messaging, but the key words are "sanctions", "sorry", "nothing I can do", "talk to your (company) lawyer"... I can't say for all the guys affected by the change, but my w

    Why do people living in the US use gas as a term for vehicle fuel (petrol/diesel)?

    I mean, I could understand if they used natural gas as fuel for vehicles (which I know they don't), but they only use it in households. It makes no sense ๐Ÿคท.

    Nmap doesn't return hostnames, only IP addresses

    Thought I'd ask here first, then report if it's a bug. Haven't used Nmap on Void before. I installed the latest version available in the repos (7.94). Still, no matter what combo of switches I use, it never shows hostnames. I even tried -R (reverse DNS lookup), it still doesn't report the hostnames. On the other hand, Advanced IP Scanner (Windows) resolves hostnames just fine. Avahi daemon is running, though that shouldn't make a difference as far as I know. Samba is also installed and smbd and nmbd are running just fine.

    Is there any way I can make an old XMMS plugin work in any modern player?

    Long story short, I learned there is an XMMS release of a plugin I use in Winamp for music playback (mp3PRO). Sadly, I recoded most of my music to mp3PRO back in the day, and now I'm stuck using Winamp, even on Linux. I like the player, wouldn't change it, but I wanted to switch to something native, like Audacious or Qmms. But, this codec is abandonware and it only has a plugin released for XMMS back in 2005 (closed source, of course).

    Is there any way I can make this plugin work in any modern player? It's 32-bit only, but that's not a problem, I can just use the 32-bit versions of Audacious or Qmms (Void still has 32-bit builds of them in repo)... maybe like a wrapper or something... I would debug and do whatever it needs, I just need some pointers where to start looking and what to do exactly if I'm gonna have a shot at making this work.

    I tried loading the plugin in Audacious, it throws and error while loading, something xmms_config related (can't remember, I'm currently not at th
