Since I guess Google knows Rust better than me I guess I'm doing the state of art with custom target JSON-files, i.e. deploying them to a random directory in the project directory :-)

I kind of hoped that there would be a place (let's say .cargo/targets or similar) under the project that gets automatically recognized by the tooling. Then you could just put that to rust-toolchain.xml like any other target.

Sääli, että Suomessa haudattiin suunnitelmat korkeakoulujen yhteisestä Mastodon-alustasta. Alankomaissa se näyttää sujuneen hyvin.

Let’s imagine you want to do this in Rust:

#[link_section = ".note.jarkko"]

What is the default alignment?

#rust

Have not really checked this through but what is keeping v4l2loopback out of upstream?

It's useful for instance using a phone as a webcam during meetings, which actually quite useful (because e.g. iPhone actually has a quality camera).

That was a little scary. I asked ChatGPT, how would I best do X ? It responded, why don't you use thing Y that you have? I had told it in the past that I have thing Y, in a different chat session. That means we have arrived at the state where it's keeping track of what I said in the past.

Learning to compile distro kernel for Fedora. I took a random patch set from mm just to learn this process [1]. Has taken couple of days because I don't know anything about RPM and have compiled so far only distro kernel for Ubuntu. I'm recent convertant to Fedora because between 2004-2021 I used Ubuntu util I had had enough ;-)

Glitches or things to reconsider:

- I have now kernel compilation ongoing with "fedpkg mockbuilld". I hope this is the right command. I got the kernel by "fedpkg clone --anonymous kernel ".
- I have no idea how to point out linux-next so had to backport a single patch from kselftest to v6.12-rc4. Any pointers how to use that nice fedpkg command AND have linux-next is appreciated.
- I hope this will ensure that the kernel will signed with my MOK key: [2].

I have a key created:

$ sudo certutil -L -d /etc/pki/pesign

Certificate Nickname Trust Attributes
SSL,S/MIME,JAR/XPI

Machine Owner Certificate Pu,Pu,Pu

And I hope this will pick it for the kernel build:

--- a/kernel-local
+++ b/kernel-local

# This file is intentionally left empty in the stock kernel. Its a nicety
# added for those wanting to do custom rebuilds with altered config opts.

I don't think it will take long for Trump to officially, or without indirection, endorse Adolf Hitler. At least if he wins this will be inevitable.

So anyone who thinks that he will ensures the diplomatic relations with Israel, I'd think twice...

PS. Unrelated to ongoing horrible war in the mIddle east...

Mary Trump is warning about Donald’s dementia--yet corporate media still refuses to cover it! My new article about what Mary-- a psychologist and someone who has known Donald all her life--is seeing that demands more media attention given the stakes: https://deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/mary-trump-is-warning-about-donalds

Filled out my ballot over the weekend — a rather time-consuming task in Colorado, as we have a lot of things to vote.

Now I just have to endure a few more weeks while the rest of the country catches up. And hope I don't find myself living in a fascist nation...
