Found something really cool!

https://archive95.net/

This archive is a collection of old websites, around 1994-1995 (from CDs that were distributed then for offline browsing). The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine roughly starts at 1996, so this is a snapshot of an even earlier internet than the archive has stored.

I can admit by now: doing this blockchain stuff was not my thing. I tried it for four months and learned my lesson.

Just wanted to put this out loud for the sake of therapy... Now I know a bit of that and in long run that gives me a better perspective of the tech industry.

It's a non-Rust related principle in kernel that:

1. No code shall pass without a caller.
2. No code shall be more generic than its callers require it to be (because we don't hold API/ABI compatibility per version for in-kernel API's).

A non-rustianated opinion about DMA patches: it should be part of patch set that requires DMA.

I.e. I was eager to try it out but there is no payload to test. I did add lei filter to get everything from rust-for-linux matching DMA so looking forward to do this in future :-)

@pinkforest I personally buy my music from Bandcamp rather than stream it from Spotify so doing at least in that sense my part :-) And still buy printed books etc.
