@Sanderde because there is also Pierre Poillievre in this picture, down in the storm drain with a red balloon.

@g0hl1n @gregkh Sometimes git, for whatever reason, has trouble figuring out the minimal size of the pack you'd need and sends you an unreasonably large number of objects. That's the best explanation I can offer.

@lwn We're up to nearly 1.2M IPs having attacked our server today. For now we've been able to make some changes and the situation appears to have stabilized; apologies to everybody who was blocked out of the site while this was going on.

Hopefully, you have no idea why that graphic made me cringe.

@z3ntu korgalore was the result of Google shutting down their POP3 support with a 2-week notice. I wanted to have a tool that didn't depend on a protocol that may or may not still be offered 6 months down the line.

TLDR: use korgalore to bypass mailing list delivery problems

If you're a Gmail or Outlook user and you're subscribed to high-volume mailing lists, you're probably routinely missing mail. Korgalore is a tool that monitors mailing lists via lore.kernel.org and can import mail directly into your inbox so you don't miss any of it. You can also couple korgalore with lei for powerful filtering features that can reduce the firehose to what you'd actually find useful.

I could think of a better illustration if I tried. πŸ˜‚

You can get a 100% compliance score, but it will all just be wasted effort if Gmail Just Doesn't Like You.

@drq that's not the point I'm trying to make. If we get past the current "cold economic war" stage to the "hot economic war" stage, we can expect attacks on major computing infrastructure as a way to create maximum economic impact for cheap.

Ask your cloud provider if their datacentres have anti-drone defences and if they have sufficient redundancy to quickly handle and repair high-precision strikes on their power and cooling infrastructure.

Worth just for the looks they will give you.

Night slips into morning in Ukraine to the sound of air-raid sirens and explosions.
Darkness. Cold. Electricity, heating, water β€” no longer guaranteed.

This is happening in Europe.
And it only feels distant until you imagine this map with your country on it.

UK Member of Parliament Ed Davey does not mince words when characterizing Trump after his move to take Greenland.

Thanks for the tip @hadon.

The Google alert I have for "kernel.org" in the news is becoming less and less useful as the web is now knee-deep in slop articles regurgitated for clicks.

However, I was amused by the illustration on this one. Sure, this is that social.kernel.org looks like. A whole stack of blades in a half-rack. Not, you know, something as banal as a t3.large.

Also, you know, that's exactly how you arrange racks in your datacentre. Just stick a random half-rack in the middle of the floor, blowing exhaust down your cold aisle.
