…and human dewormer.

The Linux Unplugged podcast did something similar to an old Arch based server. Only one year out of date, but they had a similar experience.

Your problem isn’t Arch. It’s the fact that the Weyland experience is still under development and so not stable release to release.

This will be true on any distro.

If your solution is to freeze your distro in a certain point in time, don’t type pacman anymore.

…but it makes him much easier for them to ignore.

Bernie isn’t a democrat anymore. He’s independent.

Hardly. HL:A is the only game that would interest me in the slightest on VR platforms. No “upgrade” involves buying a dead end platform for one game.

…because Grok is being used to push certain “alternative facts” to those who are susceptible.

A few things to get out of the way

1. RFK is completely nuts and doesn’t belong anywhere, let alone in office.
2. Vaccines are a good thing and vaccine campaigns have suppressed some very nasty diseases.

I don’t disagree with this policy though. (…and that is this post obliterated).

We already take a conservative approach with medical treatments and pregnancy, including some forms of vaccination which we do not give to pregnant women. I have absolutely no problem being conservative with treatment which work in a different way to previous treatments.

With young children, I don’t think the benefit / harm calculation for the individual ever supported giving it to them. The probability that catching COVID would cause you serious harm was always lower the younger you were. Whereas the probability for side effects was always there. The only rationale to vaccinate children was to limit transmission in the population which is something it utterly failed to do.

The role out of the COVID treatments was (IMHO) a high risk strategy but arguably necessary because of the situation we were in. We’re now in a different situation. We should be re-evaluating the decision made in a time of crisis to see if they still hold up.

All UK plugs are 13A.

10A. That’s fine.

A game 90% of people can’t play.

Should have left the main narrative alone.

We’ve been needing something since Duke Nukem finally shipped.

It’s still bad.

My old commute was a 25-30 minute drive. For a while though, I had to do it by public transport.

I’d be walking for less than 10 minutes because both my house and my work were close to the train station. The rest of it was on 4 different trains, but all within one metropolitan area. The changes were no more than 5 minutes each, pretty good really. However, the number of stops and the number of changes killed any progress. The end result was that it took 1h45m to 2h.

Changing a 8hr + 2x30m day into an 8hr + 2x2h day is a significant change in lifestyle. Losing 3hr day means you don’t enjoy your evenings, you don’t socialise, and life is only work. It’s miserable.

On a different job I worked at I could get there with just 1 train. That was about 35 minute drive or 55 minutes by train once you included the walk (again about 10-15 minutes total). Even with that you’re asking yourself “Why am I not driving?”.

yikes

Pretty sure Musk has had a significant shift. Not saying he started out as a nice normal guy, but something cracked for sure.

Half life: Alyx required VR.

Half life 3 requires neural integration.

At least some of the people developing this stuff think they’re going to be able to partner AI and neural links. I think the desire is they think about the solution to a problem and then they don’t have to do the work of creating it. It will just exist magically because the AI will do it.

It’s egotistical bollocks that comes from believing your ideas are always right, and that a back of the napkin idea is the same as a fully engineered solution.

Depends on two things

1. What performance counters your CPU has.
2. What you consider to be a memory load.

Tools like perf on Linux can get you access to your processors performance counters and you’ll be able to see how many “events” occur while a process is running.

What’s an event? Well they can be configured to monitor all sorts of things in the CPU. Instructions executed, Interrupts, page table misses, and on some loads / stores.

Memory systems on a CPU aren’t straightforward though. They contain multiple levels of cache, each of which reduces the number of accesses which go to the next layer. So depending on which level you measure, you’ll get different numbers.

How can they sell your details if you don’t register for an account?

I’d personally much rather sync was done with no account. More like synching where clients connect directly to each other with a QR code (or cut&paste code)
