@vathpela @gregkh @kernellogger @pinganini right, I forgot the initramfs part :-) For test kernels I link it to vmlinux directly.

For distribution case there are obvious reasons not to do it like that (all the reasons to update it without changing kernel).

@autiomaa @aulis @bestest @ikkeT Se on vaan maalaisjärkeen toimiva liiketoimintakehikko moneen juttuun et sulla palvelu normi asiakkaille niin kuin mä maksan ihan euroilla Storj S3:sta. Sit se lohkoketju tekee sen B2B mallin pohjalle että voidaan järkevästi tarjota kollektiivisesti jotain palvelua. Eli siihen tarvitaan korporaatio ja yhteisö synergiassa. Ja ne tekee rahulia tolla ja isoilla asiakkailla et näyttökin löytyy.

@autiomaa @ikkeT @aulis @bestest Muuten se Storj josta mainitsin muissa keskusteluissa, niin esim. Adobe on sen asiakas. Ne käyttää sitä Premieressä :-) Se on toi B2B-homma mihin noi alustat tulee puremaan aika hyvin. Storj on jonkunlainen milestone web-sovelluksissa ja alustoissa omasta näkökulmasta.

@kernellogger @pinganini [I don't even care about BTRFS to honest, complication without application as far as I'm concerned. Ext4 is better since it is simpler.]

@pinganini @kernellogger Actually since I don't claimed boot loader expert I've been silently wondering why I have a boot loader when the Linux is an EFI application ;-)

Like why it could not always be just shimx64.efi + linux.efi in a system with a single OS? I don't know the current existential reason for boot loaders in EFI environment so there could be something. I don't really care even about to ability to select snapshot. I boot with USB stick and fix the system instead ;-) Snapshots have limited granularity by fixing the issue I get better overall heal up.

@pinganini @kernellogger I sort of get in the sense that it does a job if you don't need multi-boot and GRUB just adds extra cruft on top for dance moves that are never done on stage ;-) I've never used multi-boot so in that regard boot loaders do not really matter to me... Simpler is better I guess.

@ljs Some day I might invest one of these with some bad excuse related of doing exercise, absolutely premium in training watches ;-) https://www.suunto.com/en-gb/Product-search/See-all-Sports-Watches/

I could imagine world without virtual memory ;-) Like back 80s memory model. You could have security by CPU enforcing the borders (and actually would address quite many modern attack vectors).

Not a serious proposal. Still would be totally doable. Like if you have 128 GB of RAM with my normal use I could pretty much do all my tasks easily in partitioned environment.

@ljs have not noticed so far. it has felt pretty reliable to me :-) if i would really want to put cash to training watch I would go for something from Suunto.

My Casio looks rad too: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B09C65FS32?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

And its data connects to Apple's app ecosystem (can upload through bluetooth) so have been happy :-)

Considering Durov's arrest, it is not huge surprise since:

1. Telegram's security is not that great. Not sure if it is legislation compliant but I doubt it.
2. It has become the place for buying malware and stole data.
3. It has become the place for buying narcotics.

For two last I have no idea why is Telegram preferred over Tor these days.

Just in case anyone's still stuck with the SBAT issue on the Linux systems and can't easily disable secure boot for whatever reason - boot a live Fedora image, open a terminal, run

sudo mokutil --set-sbat-policy delete

and reboot. shim should now clear the sbat policy and you're back in business. Don't allow Windows Update to run again until things are sorted.

Learning new cool stuff for the upcoming work, i.e. extending LLVM IR processing :-) There's no pressure to do that but cannot help myself.

If I have a options, I try to pick jobs based getting to do something I've watched from the audience but would require way too much focus without being primary job.

I find it very clever and disruptive to consider RVA20U64 as a bytecode format with only less than 50 opcodes, which trivially map to ARM and x86 user space code. LLVM plugins should be able to do all kinds of optimizations in the JIT architecture, speeding up both the turnaround time of the compilation and quality of the compiled code for the target architecture (i.e. aarch64 or x86_64 in practice).

RISC-V CPU "softcore" (invented this term now because no idea what it is) is at least the first bytecode I actually like.
