Takes some time to get a test for my "FUSE camera driver" right (it's like in ~65% done til RFC) but one additional application that came to mind for it would be provide camera access for Wine ("winecamera"). So that you could use Windows applications, which require camera access.

Video streamed with ffmpeg, and played with ffplay through with my WiP V4L2 loopback driver.

The next step is to detach the producer from /dev/videoX fops and instead return anonymous inode, which owns a file where the capture device can write the video stream.

The video resolution in this smoke test is 640x480, and the encoder scales it up in real-time to 1280x720.

I like in Rust how it returns back to MS-DOS on in executables and libraries ;-)

No joke. Makes debugging so much better experience...

DSO's suck... (for most part unless they are actually needed).

IPv4 Internet of today

I wonder whether 2025 will be the year of IPv6.

I miss 90s and dialup as then you could actually speak to another computer no strings attached...

In some ways Internet was more advanced in tech back then ;-)

Learned something pretty basic but also somewhat essential in software and systems engineering, i.e. how to switch the default linker in #Fedora :-)

PS. Needs sudo in order to make an effective change.

They’ve got a lot more work to do, but I like this. https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/mozilla-brand-next-era-of-tech/

Saku - Suomen Amiga-käyttäjät

Wallun Mikrokivikausi-näyttelyn avajaiset Tekniikan museosta vuodelta 2016 – video pullahti YouTubeen tuossa reilu viikko takaperin. Tähän näyttelyyn perustuu myös Mikrokivikausi - Kun esi-isä tietokoneen osti -sarjakuvakirja, jonka (vielä myynnissä oleva) 3. painos on painatettu yhteistyössä Suomen Amiga-käyttäjät ry:n kanssa. Videolla esiintyy myös Wexteen, aka Jyrki J.J. Kasvi, joka oli toinen näyttelyn kokoajista. ❤️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJmoJ0e3Nxw

Trump's appointees are basically incompetent ideological henchmen, or billionaires. And there's some overlap in categories.

#Flatpak would be much better if #Flatseal functionality would be somehow embedded nicely straight into #GNOME settings. Lack of such functionality out-of-the-box is the main glitch of the Linux app ecosystem for me.

I would take the reference from privacy and security settings of macOS. Flatseal is pretty much the same deal, isn't it?

"A Short History of the 303 in 12 songs 🙂 How the 303 failed successfully - our fav TB-303 patterns"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kf2-WLK3gPA

Personal trivia: the oldest noticable 303 song I know is "Let me go" from Heaven 17. It came out 1983 and 303 was discontinued 1984 (manufactured 1981-1984, it was a commercial flop).

The most obvious feature one could ever imagine would be trivial filter by status but not in #Github 🤷

9950X has been pretty good choice for compiling complex Rust projects.

I doubt that ThreadRipper would have been worth of the price and also electricity consumption given that linking is the main bottleneck of the larger project. In single-core performance 9950X is great and I would cherish the day really when 16 physical cores would be THE bottleneck for the liking process to be honest.

E.g. for compiling Buildroot/Yocto images or similar multi-executable project you could get much more out of ThreadRipper than in my use.
