I've been quite happy with Fedora because I've had pretty much same experience as with Ubuntu versions 14.04-18.04: after initial struggles I don't really proactively think about the operating system anymore.

I've tried post-Ubuntu also Arch, Debian and OpenSUSE but Fedora has kind of stuck now about a full year, so I guess it is my "new Ubuntu" ;-) It also worked out of the box with my new 9950X/RTX4090 box, which was nice (only required dnf install akmod as additional step).

Just so that you know: https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-generate-lockfile.html

I.e. pretty common use is to resolve merge conflict. Lessons learned for today ;-)

Im a sucker for architecture and to this day this is still one of the nicest looking hotel buildings that Ive seen anywhere in the world. Not the fanciest but there is something truly nice in its simple design. Located about 500m from my home.

This is useful to have with BuildRoot in .zprofile:

# Buildroot
export BR2_DL_DIR="$HOME/.cache/buildroot/dl"

I.e. build a global cache of source packages and external toolchains. Allows to work offline most of the time.

#buildroot

Interesting. GCC dropped LP64E support: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=116152

And rustc added the same support: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/132354

So my guess is that embedded RISC-V happens a lot with Rust and since GCC-Rust is not widely used so far it has been silent on GCC side.

So maybe this was uneducated decision from GCC? I don't know. Feels weird.

This will definitely block us from using GCC as our smart contracts are based on ILP32E/LP64E.

Because Valve's client app does not suck, and Epic's launcher does in fact suck? Perhaps? 🤷

Meanwhile Elon Musk is trying to destabilize the UK.

Maybe take that into consideration next time you buy a car or cheer for SpaceX.

In addition to loopback driver for v4l2 I'm also working still on TPM2 signers patch set for asymmetric keys. Both are off-work business :-) I enjoy working with kernel now like this because I can do features based on my own needs, not on corporate needs... Thus also features are rare because I don't get anything out of doing something if I don't have need for it. Challenge by itself does not drive me for some reason (unless someone offers me money for doing a feature).
