Otherwise, I occupy my time with various bits in RISC-V land.

@vbabka that's not surprising to hear. In terms of creating characters that you feel strongly about and choices that do actually feel meaningful (the oh you didn't do this particular thing in this side quest, xyz character dies stuff and the macro stuff) they both do have similarities. But in terms of gameplay, you'd never guess that Inquisition and the Witcher 3 are of the same approximate age!

Been playing through Dragon Age Inquisition, and while it feels a little clunky, it's very much in the same camp as CDPR games where finishing in less than 50 hours feels like doing the game an injustice!

Reading <https://www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2023/0322/1364404-culture-shock-ireland-language/> made me think about my desire to use distinctly Irish turn of phrase while writing emails etc to a distinctly international audience.
Part of me feels I shouldn't as it is less accessible, but at the same time I live in fear of people thinking I am English or American!

Bugbot status update: it's now able to monitor lore lists and start tracking threads as bugs based on an arbitrary query. E.g. you can mention "bugbot engage" in a thread and the entire thread will be converted to a bugzilla bug (if the email of the person issuing this command matches a bugzilla account with "editbugs" group membership). Any subsequent messages in the thread will be automatically added to the bug as new comments. Any comments posted on the bug via bugzilla interface will be sent to original recipients.
Now working on the other direction -- bugs added in bugzilla will be converted to mailing list threads and sent to proper maintainers (based on certain conditions, e.g. a "bugbot" flag needs to be set to "on" and the cf_subsystem custom field needs to match the corresponding MAINTAINERS entry). Should be done tomorrow, at which point I'll be looking for early testers. :)

@ljs @axboe FWIW, although I think it was clear, I wasn't insinuating that you were - I just felt that given the "I'm just the book guy" comments you've previously made that you'd likely feel that way too.
I'm a no-one on the "opinions that matter" scale, but I certainly don't think you are an impostor.

> I've been able to b.s. my way on to the MAINTAINERS list (as a reviewer :P) so might well go for a social.kernel.org account when that lands
On one hand, very little congestion for usernames etc & an admin you know. On the other, feelings of being an impostor ;)

Yet another evening staring at alternatives.
What an endless fountain of fun.

@Aissen @kernellogger The LTS kernels are not going away, please use them. It's just that you can not expect them to live for "forever".
The simplest solution is for you to demand support for your SoC and devices upstream, that gets rid of the issue of what kernel you are forced to use immediately. We did that decades ago for the "Enterprise" Linux market, and all of the problems of "we are stuck on this old kernel because the vendor never forward ported their code" instantly went away.

@ljs something like that, you got very good coverage across the various arch's, whoever is first to start work in the morning will find it.
I'm glad when someone else spots stuff, saves me bisecting, but in those case I knew who was to blame from reading on here over the last week ;)
I've had some really insidious stuff break in next that took months to get fixed, so this one should be a dream!

@ljs @broonie @monsieuricon There are a few options for send-email and format-patch that'd reduce some of the manual steps there (as well as things like the branch description that can store your cover) but the managed approach that b4 will give you is probably a order of magnitude easier to get right.
