@vathpela @vbabka I don't like usually want to support any candidate in foreign elections because given how social media algorithms work, in right (wrong) hands any opinion can be weaponized for any possible purpose or goal ;-)
In Mastodon I can say at least that for sure I'd be happier if Kamala won but for us over here it is also sane to prepare for all possible outcomes.

For an outsider (not living in US) it is impossible to make guesswork who will presidential elections? I was in 2016 at north west of US when the Trump happened for the first time, and then everybody knew by a fact that Trump will not win, it is just plain impossible.
If you ignore who you would want to win, who do you think will win?
PS. Not worried of Trump because he likes how we rake our forests ;-) https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-46256296

15 minutes of #LinkedIn fam. I'm surprised that could even see this as I'm (obviously) not in that site. I guess that came clear also yesterday ;-)

Apparently the latest #LWN issue is across the board #Rust ;-) That said, I don't mind. My favorite tho was "Zapping pointers out of thin air", which is not exactly a Rust article but should be quite useful read also for the Rust developers (on the one and only Paul McKenney's talk).

@vbabka Maybe they would even able to deliver a letter with 40'ish A4 printouts from Finland to Germany. Finnish and Germany Post were not, even tho I paid almost 30 EUR for that joy... Cost me 500 EUR in the end because I was my own delivery agent in the end. So if Alzabox could deliver to Berlin with less than 500 EUR to a box over there, I'm a potential customer ;-)

@ljs @oleksandr @pony Yeah, so I would rather run just macOS on this, and get something having none of Apple software inside. This is just my leisure time machine :-) Not even looking it from benchmarking angle but more like fun and learning something new... Using it now as I'm keeping today off from work :-)

@pony @oleksandr @ljs You mean me? This is my Mac mini. Ok you got me, it's an ARM desktop ;-) But something with more power, cores and at minimum 64 GB of memory (that said I have the heftiest M2 Pro 12-core CPU with 32 GB, which is not too bad when compiling in Asahi Linux).

@ljs @oleksandr @pony I sold my i9-13900k desktop three weeks ago. Plan is to get something new, and 9950X would be an option but I've trying to check if there would be some decent(ish) desktop level ARM option available. There's some pretty powerful ARM CPU's for laptops but I don't much about the desktop market. Up until that surviving with X1 ThinkPad :-) ARM tickles me mainly to get more experience with that ISA...

@vbabk I have not that much but one thing I did back in 2012 was arch/x86/realmode, which is relocatable (at least a bit more given limitations) version of the trampoline code used when waking up from suspend etc. It was like historical exhibition tour on x86 legacy layers at the same time ;-)
And as a teen I wrote a few 3D engines and stuff like that for MS-DOS then using either DOS/4GW or Tran's PMODE (never did my own so called "DOS extender") :-) Good times...

I don't actually need but I mean :-) Can't get over these. Have been stalking them for couple of years already (with trousers on).
I do own MiSTeR FPGA so there is a "business reason" to get one.
