A celebration of Independence Day that makes me truly proud of my Wyoming roots... https://cowboystatedaily.com/2023/07/03/pure-patriotism-unleashed-reporter-plays-star-spangled-banner-on-chainsaw/

@brauner This is something I raised at the maintainers summit a couple of years ago ... the addition of kfuncs is almost entirely invisible and, thus, not widely reviewed.
6.5 has seen the addition of five kfuncs (so far): bpf_cpumask_any_and_distribute, bpf_cpumask_any_distribute, bpf_cpumask_first_and, bpf_sock_destroy, and bpf_task_under_cgroup

Concerts at Red Rocks can often be surprising, but this isn't the sort of surprise attendees are generally after... https://www.denverpost.com/2023/06/21/red-rocks-convert-fans-hail-injured/

Daniel Ellsberg died today. Goodbye to a courageous defender of much that is good.
Here's a couple of pictures I took of him at a protest at the Nevada nuclear test site sometime in the mid 1980's.

It has been some time since I played with OsmAnd; I'm surprised by how good it has gotten in the meantime. The user interface is still a bit annoying at times, but functionally it mostly outdoes the proprietary competition at this point.

Things are going so great in ElonLand that Twitter managed to get evicted from its Boulder office...

Local Boulder news, perhaps, but for those of us who watched over 1,000 homes burn down, in just a few hours, from our front steps, a determination of the cause (or causes, as it turns out) is a pretty big deal.
Nobody, it seems, is being charged for having started this disaster, a decision that seems correct based on the evidence as described. I can only imagine that the lawsuits are going to keep an army of lawyers employed for a long time, though.

@geert Amusingly, I'm currently in *your* country/region...but WireGuard hid that blocking so I didn't even know it existed. Apologies for that. An alternative that seems to lack this blocking is https://www.runnersworld.com/news/a44118928/cows-attack-runner-on-boulder-trail/

So I am distinctly grumpy with the Internet for having, for some unknown and inexplicable reason, failed to tell me about NO_COLOR for the last five years or so. Maybe I can finally stop cursing the people who think that yellow text on a white background is somehow legible...

@larsmb Well said: "I'm quite happy to not be welcoming to those who feel offended by rainbow colors."

@itsjustdj There are a lot of better alternatives to Authenticator, there's no reason to keep this sort of security-relevant data in somebody's cloud garden. https://lwn.net/Articles/925870/

*Sigh... we've had a wet spring and for once nothing is even threatening to catch fire ... so of course we have to import our smoke from Canada instead. https://twitter.com/cdpheapcd/status/1659913855190077440 Best of luck to everybody in Alberta, we know what it's like.

@z3ntu @monsieuricon Patches to improve the docs are always appreciated!

@z3ntu You're seeing some older holdovers at kernel.org; the droid you're looking for is at https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/core-api/printk-formats.html these days.
@monsieuricon I wonder if some of that stuff should go away at this point? It would break links, which is unfortunate, but showing ancient docs isn't great either.

@drewdevault The only complaints I have gotten are about the sidebar navigation, and I've made some changes to address them.
The text is black on white - *better* contrast than what the RTD theme had. Text width could be tweaked, I guess, but too wide is not good for readability.
Dunno...overall the change was received relatively well. It went through the usual kernel review process. I'll certainly look at patches if you want to adjust the theme.

@drewdevault If you have specific complaints about the (Sphinx standard) Alabaster theme, let's hear them and perhaps things can be improved.
