I wonder if this the most convenient way to reset #KDE #Plasma 6 panel settings:

rm -f .config/plasmashellrc && kquitapp5 plasmashell && kstart5 plasmashell

A recent demo "Backslide to Arcanum" by Cosmic Orbs included a mind-blowing fullscreen 50Hz rotozoom effect on Amiga 500. Having created a rotozoomer on A500 back in the day I knew exactly how incredibly hard it is to make such routine run fast. The effect has now been dissected and there's also author's writeup.

Despite yesterdays rant on #Intel #GPU I cannot wait to have the slice of time to test various things like drm-tip. My own computer failings gives a chance me to learn a tiny bit of new in #Linux #kernel :-) So I'm always excited when my computers fails.

@ljs @josh @jvschrag Yeah, usually a great meetings is kind of "accomplish a mission" with those people who matter for accomplishing that goal. Then usually people say what they need to say because the whole thing is somewhat goal oriented. Does not need that much preparing. Can be compared to something like going to a bank to negotiate mortgage loan or similar scenario :-)

@josh @jvschrag meetings should have a QA process :-) it is the only asset in corps that is not too eagerly measured.

I.e. instead of arguing how meetings should or should not be there should be some way to measure their quality and continuously improve them like any other asset. I'd guess what works is something that has a time parameter and depends on company's overall state etc.

i think this is also major glitch of existing agile processes (scrum, kanban etc.). they are in the end of the day static and unrobust.

Ok, the fact that the "AI" (NPU) chip controller inside Intel's new Meteor Lake CPUs uses SPARC instruction set (from 1990?) was not on my bingo cards for this year. https://chipsandcheese.com/2024/04/22/intel-meteor-lakes-npu/
