The #paid #subscriptions I have (#everything):

  1. #YouTube Premium
  2. #Dropbox (2 TB).
  3. #iCloud (50 GB just a staging buffer for iCrap).
  4. #SoundCloud super artist whatever shitty account name they had. The service is great but their subscription labels are confusing. I guess I should get a Xanax addiction to understand them.
  5. #Bookbeat
  6. #NordVPN
  7. #Voi electric scooter (300 min / month).
  8. #Kapsi Internet-users association.
  9. #Splice

Just wanted to recall what I pay for…

I’m finally going through LKML and posting my horribly delayed pull request for v6.5. Considering Finnish yearly celebrations, such as Mid-Summer Eve, the timing was just super awful. #linux #kernel #lkml #pullrequest #pr #tpm #keyring #sgx #x86 #intel

a #regular #person who goes to work, pays taxes, maybe has some outdoor activities such as picking some berries and mushrooms from the forest, and possibly plays in a band or performs electronic music, or perhaps does some sports, is really the new #radical I suppose.

In other words, that kind of person is #extreme #neutral.

in a functional #democracy you need both strong left-wing and right-wing, and each election is more like collective decision, which prepares a functioning mix of #capitalism and #socialism, which makes sense at the time.

this is the only #political #manifest that i support. it is super boring, but it actually works.

to add, i don't always follow this, sometimes your are just really stupid when you cannot control your nerves. taking your words back is a respectable property in a person IMHO. so lets not judge people for lets say a single misogynistic, racist or whatever comment. it is okay to denote from that but categorically labeling people for bad behavior is just driving people to the extremes. we are not robots after all...

these thoughts have been my mind only because of disregarding vocally in public against his one controversial figure in the finnish government. i think it was not attack to the right-wing side of the finnish politics. if anything, it was governing that side (i'm also pretty variable on which side i vote, i don't have a fixed positioning). there was provable evidence of strong involvement with extremist groups. so speaking out loud against that kind of thing is only political in the sense that you support a healthy democracy.

i hope both sides are healthy and strong, and the thing was more like fighting against terrorism, because domestic terrorism is also terrorism.

when #investing, i do not understand people who follow any of the big names, or their advice. obviously the signal you want to give as such, is the one that plays for your own benefit, which does not equal anyone else's benefit, unless that is the best post possible #investment #strategy.

"Sillä kun viemäriputki halkeaa ja lokavesi tulvii kadulle, apuun eivät riennä hipsterit jopoillaan. Asfalttimurtuman reunalla eivät kilise nenärenkaat. Siellä eivät komeile rastapipot eivätkä pasteeraa muotibloggarit kuin korkeintaan ottamassa onnettomuusselfieitä."

unohdetaan politikointi, tämä on vaan niin hyvänmielen ja terapeuttinen teksti :-) https://www.ess.fi/paakirjoitus-mielipide/137325 #persvako #äijät

yhteiskunta toimis varmaan paremmin, jos ihmiset tykkäisi enemmän star trekistä kuin star warsista. sen sijaan, että tapeltaisiin pilotit tai huput päässä, niin juteltaisiin mukavia neutraaleissa kokovartalotrikoopuvuissa, ja 3D-tulostettais sitä mitä nyt sattuis tarviimaan. #startrek #starwars #yhteiskunta #society

closed my #linkedin, i've never needed it, and had account for the first time in 2003, so i guess it is useless...

#elonmusk #paradox: one can have #money as much as a state but zero unallocated time units. in a sense, it is ultimate #poverty.

One idea for #chatgpt and alike would be generation of #legacy #bindings for codebases where any #automatic method will not work, and creating bindings is trivial but manual work.

Lagging #LKML a bit, and also a bit late with my PR because I've been helping to expose a neo-nazi minister. Cannot believe this could ever happened in #Finland @torvalds

I’ve hacked on RISCV for 3,5 months, and some thoughts have developed.

I think that #WebAssembly was a wrong design choice for #web and instead #W3C should have gone with a real micro architecture. #RISCV provides answer for this.

Benefits:

  1. Wider than web industry behind it.
  2. Made to last decades without breaking backwards compatibility.
  3. Ultra-light state transformations (context switches and alike).
  4. Well-defined layering and extensions.
  5. More open and appealing to open source hackers, moving power away from industry controlled WG’s.
  6. Catch up game with many CPU features would stay in sync. E.g. for VM based (i.e. not like SGX which is process based) confidential computing could just map the primitives for the underlying bare-metal CPU architecture.

WebAssembly is in the end really bad implementation of a great idea overally. Forth i interpreter was cool when JVM came out.

Here if W3C and browser vendors dared to take step back, it would result a stable innovation in the web for decades forward.

Transforming RISC-V to WebAssembly is ofc possibly but I don’t see it as an end solution, as all the crappiness of #wasm gets in the way, and e.g. benefit 6 would not even exist.
