Humans: I shouldn't have to remember your preferred pronouns
Same humans: this table is a "he" if you're German, a "she" if you're French, and "it" if you're English.

Linus Torvalds
torvaldsRandom first trial post: today, March 14th, is the 29th anniversary of the Linux 1.0 announcement.
Of course, there are other arguably more important dates in Linux history, but this is one of them.

Oh, apparently my inability to boot newer kernels on my Nitropad had nothing to do with the actual kernels. Somehow either Fedora or HEADS kept repeating the same two flags over and over in the kernel boot line (intel_iommu=igfx_off intel_iommu=on), so that at some point I think it overflowed some kind of sane limit. Trimming that down solved the issue.

Is there one of those German words for feeling glad that your conference talk got accepted, but experiencing a growing sense of dread as the slides submission due date creeps closer every day?

Me: we have 50TB on our backend storage system that stores kernel tarballs, so this should be plenty for the next 5+ years.
@gregkh: challenge accepted!

My kid's scout truck entry vehicle is shaping up well, but may require an explanation to fellow scouters who are probably not familiar with Fallout lore.

Thoughts on renaming b4 as b4k (as a play on bifurqué), to make it more clear in speech and in search results?

I post my artwork on my personal account, but I do have an album here:

I'm self-taught and mostly I draw from photos as a zen thing to do while listening to audiobooks.

monsieuriconI just released b4 0.12.2:
- prep: add ability to use markdown in the cover content (requires escaping the leading “#” as “>#” that is stripped on cover letter rendering)
- send: don’t require vN to –resend (will resend the latest version)
- test: don’t require running from git
- plus several bugfixes mostly dealing with corner-case conditions

When you see someone using an old version of your tool that you know has a bad bug that they somehow keep avoiding.

Me, entering room: Mornin'.
My wife: Wait a minute, that accent. Have you been playing RDR2 again?
Me: I ain't got no idea whatcha mean.
My wife: you're not even from this part of the world!

This was a productive Friday, even if I didn't get to all outstanding b4 patches. B4 0.13-dev gained a `b4 prep --cleanup` feature that will be handy for people sending many series and it allows archiving and cleaning up git objects used for series tracking.

We had our heat pump replaced and a new central thermostat put in. We were supposed to get a wifi enabled one, but looks like they installed a cheaper version that isn't wifi-capable.
I ain't even mad.

Pretty sure I'm on LWN entirely due to my skillful use of dadjoke titles.
