@thomasfuchs may I ask what is the main keyboard in the picture? Looks interesting.

@vbabka With or without bitcoin, any service almost that tells you that you can earn by consuming is suspicious because the cost is generated anyway somewhere, including the environmental cost. For me this looks like crowdsourcing your mining enterprise more than anything else, definitely not green energy.

I do use a service called Storj.io, which is based on proof-of-stake distributed S3 space but it is totally different story. There the blockchain is used to book keep the stake of sharing space to the service. I used that service for 6 months without even knowing this. As a customer I just pay my $2-3 cloud bills for cheap S3.

Investing on currency, even euros, is usually a scam that I do agree :-) For using blockchain to distribute a contribution to a cloud storage service, it is just super cost effective for me as a consumer, cannot help it 🤷 In that context it is not about currency, it is about shared contract.

@TheStroyer Those are your own interpretations, please do not put words to my mouth :-) I answered already all I want to say on this, thanks.

@jani Seems like a solvable problem. I've tried sometimes to introduce projects with IO (audio, graphics) dependencies :-)

@jani my solution unhelpful solution that I ended up with C and C++ in macOS is not to do C and C++ ;-) Even if I've got local builds and/or CI working for it, I know that some collapse will hold in the often not so distant future. Apple sucks for writing code.

Two weeks after this left at Tampere University working in https://sochub.fi/. Not that much is going to change to because I'm still happily stuck at my home and working on RISC-V peculiarities. It's a broken CPU architecture still in my opinion but that's why also fun to work with :-)

I switched back to GNU screen from tmux :-) Color issues are gone in 5.0. I was using screen anyway all the time because it can do serial ports.

@TheStroyer If that was a generic question I expect a generic answer to the question "how can you measure performance" before answering that.

In the context Rust would provide vastly better static checks for input validation in the uapi 🤷 Uapi is also part of the kernel, which would not require extensive use unsafe blocks in Rust when compared to e.g. something like mm. Obviously this is not universal truth but instead depends on case by case. For instance reading any kind of structure data (including binary not just text) the benefits are obvious.

@vbabka E.g. using heat generated by a nuclear power plant to warm up houses, or installing solar panels to the roof of your house would make sense to me.

I got the impression (did not read too carefully) that:

1. Heat generation is based on bunch of server racks transforming electricity pulled from the power plug 🤷
2. It just decreases the environmental cost that the business introduces.

I think energy saving like:

1. Saving heat means decreasing the amount of heat generated.
2. Saving electricity means decreasing the amount of electricity used.

So yeah
🤷

no issues with colors great (foot terminal + screen).

Even when using tmux I've used "screen -L -dmS" a lot in scripting because it wraps a QEMU instance to a quick and dirty virtual machine manager for a single VM, or like named pointer for the PID . It's sometimes surprising how effective results you can get with archaic tools if you just have ever bothered to read the documentation.
