Is this the first rust resistance type of article of the year: https://lwn.net/Articles/1006805/

I thought we got over it and now it is just yet another boring language we use (which is great) :D

"Achieve your AI goals with a secure, enterprise-grade content management and collaboration platform."

Microsoft on SharePoint in 2025. What about the user who don't have "AI goals"?

I mean I might have AI goals too, like pricing my used gear that I sell but I have other goals too than just AI.

@TalesFromTheArmchair You're welcome! It is painful for me to push commits if I don't take this type of stuff in detail. It's not even like first and foremost even politeness: I've been kernel maintainer long enough that I feel that I compromise myself or something like that if I don't always be super explicit on these :-)

My comment about Windows being malware was honestly no relation to Meta's actions. I was wondering why I got so many likes about my silly complains :D I complain about everything every day. It's a stupid lifestyle choice but keeps one going.

I don't care what Meta does or doesn't do. They can do whatever they want in Facebook as far as I'm concerned (I don't care).

I learned WinDbg kernel mode, sysmon, WMI events, how to setup virtofs shares and how to gain SSH access to a Windows VM.

For the next run I know how to take servercore docker image, extract is tarball, turn that into qcow2, and finally patch that into a Windows image that boots by "fake recovering" it with Windows ISO.

Thus, at least this is the last time I go full-on Windows 11. For the Docker artifacts, look up https://mcr.microsoft.com/.

Removed the malware after one month of suffering.

@TalesFromTheArmchair Off-topic: I noticed from your blog BTW that you're using RTIC. I know the author (Per Lindgren) and meeting him on Saturday :-)

@TalesFromTheArmchair Dude! I fixed the Windows build thanks to your suggestion!

Do you have email so that I could put suggested-by tag to the commit?

I don't know who is this guy but I fully and 100% agree with he says:

What can I say, in my opinion FOSDEM sucks. Good to see that there are other people with some common sense.

A decision to cancel also Mozilla's keynote would have at least shown some integrity in the decision making. Not claiming that integrity is completely lost but at least it would be morally and ethically right to admit that this did not go well.

@TalesFromTheArmchair Not critique for cargo per se because in order to criticize one show the better way (or actually "show the code") but somehow in the "non-generic case" cargo can be a bitch.

One example is custom targets: there should be really within a project directory a directory where they could be deployed and all the tools would automatically discover them. Then one could just use them by name.

I was so sure that I just don't know how to make that happen but I'd presume that it is not possible reflecting e.g. this tutorial:

https://security.googleblog.com/2024/09/deploying-rust-in-existing-firmware.html

I trust that Google would know the way if that would exist.

@mikko Ehkä se, jos ei olisi ollut konetta, niin olisi ärsyttänyt. Oon syntynyt vuonna 1980, joten tää oli kyllä ennen nettiaikaa :-) BBS-elämä alkoi kylläkin jo vuonna 1993.

@TalesFromTheArmchair Thanks I honestly do appreciate your comment! Anything is really worth of a shot by now ;-)

As per Windows I learned the basics of how to debug NT kernel and now I should be able to start capture the environment of every cargo process launched:

https://social.kernel.org/notice/AqZds7vXTuTxSm2gds

I.e. build from command-line within the directory where rust-toolchain.toml and Cargo.toml reside but otherwise with same arguments as in build.rs and then do the build.rs build. Finally "subtract the sets".

What you're doing is an interesting idea, I will definitely give it a shot. Also wonder does the position of current_dir() call matter (I had it before arg() calls)....

Pre-order without even reading the sample chapter:

https://nostarch.com/art-arm-assembly-volume-1

I would pay 200 for this one TBH even.
