@ljs @oleksandr yeah, there's bunch of cool shops like https://www.juno.co.uk/. Have not ordered anything from the post-brexit.

@ljs @oleksandr ya, I don't know much about UK politics. I try to also keep my distance to Finnish politics because for some reason I always get a bad face when I read anything even distantly related to politics ;-)

One thing I neither get in Sweden nor UK is that why monarchy is still present but I guess it is a great tourist attraction like some zoo with super rare almost extincted animals :-)

I guess BREXIT was not that great decision. Before that happened, I used to spend at least few hundred euros per year ordering goods from UK. Now I spent less than hundred for printed media, which you can order customs free to some limit (might have been 150 EUR or similar figure). I don't think I was a "snowflake" in this one. Hope it gets reversed some day so I can loose my money for the benefit of your economy again ;-)

@ljs @oleksandr Isn't the PM sitting always the worst ever, like universally in any democratic country?

.... and opposition parties, which are as retarded as PM's party, represent "the change".

@seve_py after doing some work for few days i stripped down the stuff that i don't need. just wanted see what kind of fancy stuff is out there ;-) [see above]

I love that I don't need cross my fingers every time the plugins update to a new version, like I had to with neovim for past four years :-) Often a plugin update could cause editor to collapse if it wasn't a bleeding edge version.

It is pretty obvious that #Zig will eventually have weight given what #Ueber has shown it can do in production: any C/C++ project can be converted within days to a Zig project.

ncdu is an open source example of the same: https://dev.yorhel.nl/ncdu. I'd bet some larger scale and notable C/C++ open source project will convert to Zig within next few years.

If Rust is the new C++, I guess Zig is the new Objective-C...

I am writing a book entitled The Linux Memory Manager.

It's intended to be a thorough overview of the memory management subsystem combining a walk through the code with a description of the key concepts as well as a chapter on practical kernel memory management.

EDIT: The first draft is complete :) Now editing the book.

It targets linux v6 with a target release date of mid-late 2024.

Check out https://linuxmemory.org/ and this account for details of my progress.

@kernellogger One more revision coming soon based on Linus' and James' feedback. I added you and Linus to the loop because the overall diff is not small, and this is coming quite late. Unfortunately, neither when bugs arrive and when they have been fully analyzed can be planned beforehand...

@Zoarial94 Yea, so is the difference that the other sites use U2F and Google uses FIDO2? I have to admit that I did not know that they are different thing so this cleared some details (i.e. according to Internet U2F is second factor authentication whatever that means).

Almost without noticing I’ve gradually migrated some of my passwords to pass:

❯ pass web
web
├── bitstamp.net
├── bitwig.com
├── element.kapsi.fi
├── fabfilter.com
│   ├── license
│   └── password
├── firefox.com
├── gitlab.com
├── google.com
├── icloud.com
│   ├── password
│   └── recovery
├── pypi.org
│   └── recovery
├── steampowered.com
├── storj.io
│   ├── password
│   ├── projects
│   │   └── my-cloud
│   └── recovery-codes
└── tuni.fi

Nice thing is that you can store hierarchically also other data than passwords to leaves. storj.io is a great example of this use.

I drew this 12 months ago, as LLM code assistants were just becoming available.

Has it held up?

Most #site’s ask #password + #FIDO2 but others satisfy with only FIDO2.

E.g. #Google #account opens up without password, if the #YubiKey is plugged in.

I’m just wondering why this difference exists…
