1000 days since the Russian army invaded Ukraine, destroying its cities and murdering civilians, all because Putin needed a "quick victorious war" to remain in power.

I will never forget, and I will never forgive.

It's a pity that nobody seems to care about this and seems to turn a blind eye to the awful Chinese Communist Party, the same party who has overseen the deaths of over 100 million human beings and still venerates the leader who did the bulk of that.

A govt that regularly disappears political opponents and plans to invade democratic Taiwan, and if course is the principle supporter of Putin in his invasion of Ukraine, without which that wouldn't be possible.

It continues to amaze me how stupid people are when evil is so obvious as this. But I guess people like cheap goods better than a spine.

HAMMER SMASHED FILESYSTEM πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦

day 1000 of a terrorist state busy murdering and torturing innocent men, women and children instead of caring for their own. standing firmly in the middle ages, slaves to a psychopathic czar, with the feeling of supremacy paralleled only by the other great leader, their only friend.

yet there are politicians who are busy telling those who are sheltered from this monumental injustice by sheer luck that they're the somehow the real victims when asked to give, not their lives, but a mere share of their wealth to defence aid.

this is not only an absolutely disgusting failure of compassion and humanity, but also that of long term planning.

I couldn't find the original shirt, I guess I got rid of it :'( due to not fitting at all any more (had to do this with a ton of clothes).

But tried to recreate the pose...

At -41kg.

EDIT: Content warning as this is cringe, but also I only did this because facebook recommended the 'before' today :P

Since the report of 3888.9% performance improvement made it not only to Phoronix (no surprises there) but is now also the subject of at least two youtube videos, where one has 212k views at this point (just wow), I've decided to explain in some detail why the benchmark is in this context completely bogus, and that people missed the very same report also contains a 9% regression in another benchmark (which may be actually less bogus :)
Hope someone finds this useful. http://lore.kernel.org/all/3b09bf98-9bd4-465b-b9c5-5483a6261dc7%40suse.cz

Musk didn’t just ruined a social network. The whole IT field lost a fundamental virtual place of information sharing and discussion, and I am sure this will slow down the field for some time.

think I need to just switch off all kernel comms shit full stop on the weekend, this release cycle taught me that I need to set boundaries... burning myself out is not going to help anyone

Except I might end up living in a box in Brno which hammer smashed might like

The new rules for cars which require beeps when going over what it guesses (wrongly often) is the speed limit and going over what it guesses (wrongly often) is the lane marker sums up all that is wrong with politician's approach to road safety.

It's basically automated nagging, which has worked brilliantly at convincing shit drivers to not be shit right?

I mean all those times some SUV driving twat has risked my safety that'd definitely be fixed with a beep or something.
