Who got hit in the face by a baseball? This guy. Pictures when I get pretty colours and a black eye to rival Arthur Morgan after that bar fight in Valentine.

Hell hath no fury like a boomer mildly inconvenienced by having to consider the wellbeing of future generations.

My crazy week is over. I've been to Vancouver, gave a talk, came back, went to a tri-district scout camp, played some silly scout games, participated in a travois race, and finally came back home, all merely in 6 very full days.

Next week, quiet times.

If you want to be a girl you can be a girl.

If you want to be a dude you can be a dude.

If you want to be neither you can be neither.

You’re allowed. Fuck anybody who tries to tell you otherwise.

Didn't realize I was sitting next to AndrΓ© Almeida on the airplane ride to YVR (of the FUTEX subsystem fame, not of the FUTBOL fame).

After a few starts and stops over the past few years, we have finally started migrating lists from the venerable vger system running on majordomo+zmailer onto a more modern stack (mlmmj+postfix). We're doing it list by list to reduce disruption and make sure that the new setup is able to take the load, but the hope is to complete the migration over the next few months and finally put the old vger to rest.

Thus far, we have migrated netdev and bpf and things are looking good and stable. We'll give it a week or two to make sure we don't hit any weird corner cases and then get going with others.

Not sure what's happening today, but Firefox took 5 minutes to open a window. Feels like some kind of DNS problem, but I can't for the life of me figure it out. Once it opens, it works just fine.

Got the bulk of my #lssna slides completed today.

Now I just need to sprinkle some memes all over them.

This is a regular reminder that Russian military is still dropping high-yield explosives onto Ukrainian homes, killing women and children.

This is not f'n okay.

Well, I found the guilty party and the murder weapon. Not naming any names, but posting this here as a recipe of how to be very abusive to a git server.

Hello, large swathes of AWS EC2 Frankfurt. Welcome to my DROP policy. Sorry it's come to this.

If you're setting up some kind of CI farm and it's configured to clone from git.kernel.org, STOP. Set up your own damn mirror.

There's not enough RAM in the world to survive 120 shallow clone request for stable.git that all come within 2 seconds of each other, especially when they are all coming from a bunch of AWS IPs. I'm sending abuse reports, so hopefully whoever is doing this will get the message that it's not OK.

I confess, I've never looked at my phone and thought "you know what it could really use? More moving parts."

But what do I know.
