I think I've been now Fedora user for two years about :-) I had some shuffle when I switched from Ubuntu but converged eventually to Fedora.

If I was a journalist, here's the question that I'd like to ask from Meta's and Google's CEO:

"What company values mean to you?"

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.

a typical rust thread at lkml ;-) can't get over this screenshot:

"vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: .export_symbol+0x2e888: data relocation to !ENDBR: stpcpy+0x0"

hmm...

#ilovefs is almost here, and we wanted to kick off the celebrations with a little #Trivia 💗 When was the term "#FreeSoftware" created?

See if you can answer this correctly before your friends :D

Answer will be posted tomorrow morning.

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 :-)

We meet again after three week break:

I collect below the top-most commits that are locked in as pretty much dead obvious changes and the top-most commit (whatever its name happens to be) is the dumpster.

I started this by unpurging the top-most just to recall where I was at. Commit ID's live as I might add a new commit in any position (as deep down in history as possible as it makes sense).

so i heard you wanted a filesystem that is copy on write, in-tree (so not zfs), does not eat your data (so not btrfs) and is not maintained by a certain person (so not bcachefs)?

i present you, ocfs2, or oracle's cluster file system version 2

you say that it's for shared network disks in clusters? here i put it as a root filesystem, on a core 2 duo thinkpad, running off a single usb stick on usb 2.0

If I want to test Ubuntu kernel in a VM what do I need to change in this old snippet of mine:

git fetch --no-tags git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel-test/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/mainline-crack refs/tags/cod/mainline/v6.3-rc7:refs/tags/cod/mainline/v6.3-rc7
git checkout next
git checkout -b next-test
git merge cod/mainline/v6.3-rc7
LANG=C fakeroot debian/rules clean
LANG=C fakeroot debian/rules binary-headers binary-generic

The problem: that URL no longer responds.

Venäjän sensuuriviraston johtaja on tyytyväinen siitä, miten Twitter / X on viime aikoina muuttunut

Viraston johtajan mukaan Venäjä saattaa pian taas sallia Twitterin käytön - palvelu on ollut estettynä maassa jo useamman vuoden ajan.

GNU Gold Linker Is Deprecated & Will Be Gone For Good Without New Developers

With the recent GNU Binutils 2.44 release, one of the changes is worth calling out in its own article: the GNU Gold linker is now officially deprecated and is now being segregated to its own extra Binutils package but risks being removed all together without new developer volunteers stepping up to maintain this linker...
