@daniel thanks! Wondering if this will also work as a Teams background

I visited ESA’s antenna laboratory so now you get new wallpapers (for free even!)

PROGRAMMING TIP
avoid repeating the same 4 lines of code twice by writing 270 lines of beautiful, abstract, generic code

@th @exiliaex amusing:

@g4dbn question on surface RMS for reflectors & horns: do you know if EDM could work for this?

At Microwave Update in BC (https://www.microwaveupdate.org), one of the vendors had a 170 GHz spectrum analyzer. How is it possible in a device this size? #hamradio #microwave #amateuradio

Toured the TRIUMF particle accelerator in Vancouver BC, got to stand on top of a cyclotron. The magnetic field was strong enough to prevent paperclips from laying flat. It’s also where they store old focusing magnets (which become radioactive).

OMG I want to tell you about the coolest thing I've learned about in a hot minute! (Maybe everyone already knows about this, but it's new to me & I LIKE LEARNING STUFF LET'S GO ON A JOURNEY OF EXPLOSIVE DISCOVERY TOGETHER)

Just like I did for 6.10, I wrote up a "what's new with io_uring" but for the 6.11/12 kernels. 6.11 wasn't super exciting in terms of features, so bundled these into a single page.

Seriously, I only have two DVD/CD drives, both are slot drive and choke on this. It's 2024 and I'm buying a tray-drive.

What am I supposed to do with this? Wrong answers only.

Tomorrow I'll be hosting a Linux Security Modules (LSM) BoF at LPC. If you have any LSM questions or a related topic to discuss, please join us!
