@anotherwalther I really don't know, and I'm not part of that, but I think better integration between documenting and implementing features would help a lot to clear up misconceptions.

Take almost any subsystem, like PCI documentation for instance, and it should be clear that this blocks bi-directional communication: https://docs.kernel.org/rust/

@liw And this is not a question of ”why you complain and don’t contribute”. It is responsibility of devs who implement the features and maintainers who screen them. It is a mistake or failure that should be fixed by the patch review process.

@liw documenting how work was done is not done eagerly enough. I have to go and read 3rd party articles for that. This is key ingredient of kernel dev as much as code. Rust documentation is just a stub.

Essential tool with #Storj: https://cyberduck.io/

I guess everyone knows this who has used AWS but I experienced S3 storage first time ever last March :-)

BTW did not work for some reason. I had to GUI-install to get plugins actually working. Wonder what I'm doing wrong.

I.e. in #Bitwig the whole DAW crashes if I open plugins installed this manner. So I guess I use installer incorrectly.

To save some time upgrading all U-he plugins I did:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

set -e

wget -q --show-progress -r -np -nd -l1 -A Mac.zip https://uhe-dl.b-cdn.net/releases/ -P dl/
for file in dl/*.zip; do unzip -j -o "$file" -d staging "*.pkg"; done
for file in staging/*.pkg; do sudo installer -pkg "$file" -target /; done

This is great because MPE-parameters can be misused as automation parameters :-) Less automation curves better...

Beware, there is an ongoing spambot attack in issues in several projects were random people suggest "the fix" is to download a random file from mediafire.com. Like this:

I appreciate people who do all sorts of complex things with Grid etc. but it's not my thing. Still there's lot of simple workflow upgrades that do not require complex engineering.

Another feature I like a lot are these selector devices. One dead simple use case is an effect that needs to be sometimes on and usually off. Then I just have two chains: one empty and another with the effect on. It is quite reliable way to guarantee dry when off and not cause e.g. clicks when turning effects off (which does happen sometimes).

IMHO, the most useful thing in its simplicity at least I've had for MSEG in Bitwig: drop-in replacement for LFO Tool.

I actually still use LFO Tool to "design" the side-chain curve and then just match it with Curves modulator and Tool device.

Actually this is what I do a lot: use VST first given e.g. nicer visual feedback and then replicate with stock devices. Best of both worlds as far as I'm concerned :-)

@pid_eins Yep, it is more like a protocol for interoperation. Not having TPM standard would result the FSF's doomsday scenario.

@gregkh @kernellogger @pinganini Right! I've tried that with Tianocore and QEMU but never with actual hardware.

To be totally honest, for machines located at my own premises I don't have secure boot enabled at all :-) I've started to use TPM2 tho for those because it gives a lot of convenience for headless machine booting up with hard drive encryption enabled. Secure boot gives me really, umh, not much anything at all.

@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.
