The cat is not mine :(

I like cycling, powerlifting, bad video games and metal.
Otherwise, I occupy my time with various bits in RISC-V land.

My x86 box died yesterday after 10 months of using it just fine*, either CPU or mobo being the problem. Pain in the arse, but also gonna force me to actually configure my newly acquired arm64 laptop. Good a time as any to give sway a shot too I suppose!

* apart from having to run EXPO to boot, /sigh

@llvm been half looking forward to it for ages, still on the fence whether to buy. New Vegas was by far my favourite game from that lot and The Outer Worlds hit a lot of the same marks there for me. Fallout 4 felt like it tried to do too many things and was really generic IMO. Endings just felt cosmetic, as opposed to the actual converge-then-diverge that NV had, for example.

Heard that the combat and MSQ are dull and repetitive, so waiting for friends to play before buying it. The latter was my fear all along, hence the half :/
Hopefully my fear is unfounded!

@llvm @4FF at least CP2077 was given the attention needed to improve. Gave it a second go a few months ago, was pleasantly surprised by the game. Certainly not as "immersive" as w3 in terms of side quest delivery etc, but it was a great game nonetheless. Played it, the outer words and Dragon Age Inquisition back to back to back earlier this year - while Dragon Age probably has the world I cared about saving more, CP won on all other counts. (It's hard to believe that W3 is the same age as Dragon Age Inquisition, they're technically worlds apart)

Having always flown Ryanair short haul in Europe, my last two flights have been early morning Aer Lingus and Luthansa. It's so strange to me to see flights not only not at maximum capacity, but well under 2/3 of it

Written in 2008, guess that never happened!

@nirik I thought that stuff existed for a long time & you can certainly buy it here.

I get quite disorienting deja vu sometimes with patches, and it is always when I have seen the code (or something close to it) ages ago in another submission.

@lenary @llvm Butbucket also has the fetch the PRs thing - super handy, since it works even if the source repo is private and you cant fetch it itself.

@llvm Our bitbucket at work does not work without the refs/heads bit for pushing to a new branch. Other forges differ.

@llvm (your syntax works there only for pushing to existing branches)

@llvm hah, and that's not going to work on bitbucket. You need "git push <repo> <local branch>: refs/heads/<remotebranch>" iirc

@esmil Yeah, I know it was already possible to use something other than arch linux arm, but I kinda wanted to be on what whatever was the "official" distro to make my life that bit easier - I've got enough stuff running random/custom userlands at this point!

I got a macbook the other week, was kinda holding out to see if the distro switch was gonna happen so that I could avoid using arch linux arm :)

@dickon @pdp7 @esmil Only reason it wasn't is because there weren't usable kernels old enough to be like this :)

@esmil Same as the U-Boot and OpenSBI then. The board vendor's trees are much better, they imported the tarball as a commit on top of the relevant U-Boot release, rather than use tarball-import vendor stuff.

As an SoC vendor, you *have* to do better providing 2+ year old firmware in your SDK that is incompatible with running something other than your ancient, hacked up vendor kernel.

Go to try and debug someone's boot issue, have to recompile the boards firmware to run a mainline kernel, which effectively meant recompiling U-Boot too. Vendor U-Boot seems to need a customer compiler, that's the end of me caring about helping with that.

@ptesarik @opensuse I replied to the thread anyway. There's a few folks working on improving crash stuff at the moment, for example <https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230704212327.1687310-1-chenjiahao16@huawei.com/> , I might point some of them your blog post's way...

@ptesarik @opensuse Hmm, that's not great... I should probably go poke Torsten to resend his patch.
