100% Nope: A episode from supernatural, where ghouls half way succeed to eat Sam. (I consider it as the most gruesome horror I have ever seen, and I don't think I have the stomach to see it ever again. The blood draining is a ... no.)

Yellow brick road on otherhand hits the weird places spot of SCP, which I can't get enough. (not horror really, but still)

You don't know untill you try. For me, maybe consuming 400 existential dread doses a day doesn't register.

(/s maybe, this is a tongue in cheek post... )

To be fair, All Your Base Are Belong To Us is still a banger that I may want to hear on my death bed.

Edit: what this does to me is that there is now programming language called "zig", so you now can move zig.

The point when the AI hallucinations become useful is the point where I raise my eye brows. This not one of those.

The billions that got pumped into vaxine research... The RNA method is going to or has received a nobel prize right? Before this we had no good way (or as safe) to pre-train the immune system to "if you see this (virus, etc.) again, raise the alarms". Now we do.

I do this exact same expression when I'm forced to gain knowledge of something potentially personally catastrophic...

Python is just a pile of dicts/hashtables under the hood. Even the basic int type is actually a dict of method names:

x = 1
print(dir(x))
['__abs__', '__add__', '__and__', '__bool__', '__ceil__', '__class__', '__delattr__', '__dir__', ... ]

PS: I will never get away from the fact that user-space memory addresses are also basically keys into the page table, so it is hashtables all the way down - you cannot escape them.

This "news" looks pure FUD + confusion of what actually happened, and I think is best to be ignored until it can be read coherently from the next weeks news paper... I'm only commenting because of my local news began to propel this shit...

I know two friends.. who would absolutely lynch you for doing this.

Anyway, it has been fun following them and occasionally ask "whats this card worth?" and general answer has been 5-50€ a card. The cards can be worth more than literal money.

This was truly a wtf moment of the month.

Last time I spent time watching him was when he freaking fixed the kexec syscall for IBM PowerPCs. for free

permanently attached USB SSDs are supposed to be mounted

Just mount them somewhere under / device, so if a disk/mount fails the mounts depended on the path can´t also fail.

I keep my permanent mounts at /media/ and I have a udev rule, that all auto mounted media goes there, so /mnt stays empty. A funny case is that my projects BTRFS sub-volume also is mounted this way, although it is technically on the same device.

For example, the new .config directory in the home directory.

I hope slowly but surely no program will ever dump its config(s) as ~/.xyz.conf (or even worse in a program specific ~/.thisapp/; The ~/.config/ scheme works as long as the programs don't repeat the bad way of dumping files as ~/.config/thisconfig.txt. (I'm looking at you kde folks..) A unique dir in .config directory should be mandatory.

If I ever need to shed some cruft accumulated over the years in ~/.config/ this would make it a lot easier.

 

A greentext moment:

Decide to listen sweet sweet psytrance.

Playlist only available on Spotify.

Don't like non-free software. (a fucking 1TB disk full of free)

Try make the account anyway.

Somebody else has registered your email.

Request to recover password.

The request arrived at my mail box. Freaking out. No memory of why, when or how.

Listening sweet sweet psytrance.

(Still freaking out.)
