I mean, I’m absolutely positive the list on the left are much harder targets to strike. The Olympics in a major city in a country that’s already used to dealing with ISIS-like terrorists is going to go over worse than a lead balloon, America is far away and overpoliced as is, and Israel already loves shooting Muslims for no reason…
I’ve been slowly reading through rimworld and honestly I love how Pratchett balanced out the existence of magic by making it such a pointless persuit that wizards are basically just beurocrats
I choose to believe they’re blueprints for the National Archives & these two might just know someone wacky enough try and to steal the Declaration of Independence.
Behold! I have unfurled powers beyond mortal comprehension!
How wizards would actually talk:
If I hear, “why don’t you just channel the infernal essence through an ephemeral plane?” one more goddamn time from someone who hasn’t actually read the fucking rune diagrams, I’m going to lose my shit.
The ape is merely a representational avatar! The true value of the rune lies in possessing it, for it identifies you as a member of an elite cadre of ape rune possessors.
Oh I won’t, dude woke up a bug and tried to go to work still. If I so much as stub my toe in the morning I’ll just go back to bed and try again tomorrow. Though I do relate with how it took him a dozen pages to get out of bed.
fuck it’s so hard to resist the urge to mimic (though probably poorly) the writing style of the book i’m currently reading shakes fist at neuroplasticity
For linux driver development you can start by reading “Linux Device Drivers, Third Edition” pdf.
It is free and give you an idea about how everything works.
The real learning is by reading and using the linux kernel api doc or directly the source code of the api you want to call.
Source : i did this for a school project where i had to implement multiple kernel modules.
I think the real issue with driver development is that almost nobody ever has a reason to do it. It’s a much more constrained way of programming compared to normal programs, and isn’t necessary unless you need to talk to hardware or something. So, nobody has an excuse to learn it.
“There are lots of books on harvesting your own primal power source, but most people these days make a pact with the demon Linus and simply channel his power”
This makes me feel so much better after spending a morning banging my head against some wild pointer arithmetic, thank you much much! (Ultimately the pointer incantations were successful, praise be!)
I have horrible spelling skills and am very prone to typos on phone keyboards even when I can spell, so sometimes I just leave my mistakes in there just so they know I’m real, totally not becaus I’m a lazy writer.
I’ve got a mouth like a sailor who stubbed his toe, mostly because I used to be a sailor who stubbed his toe a lot. Between my foul mouth and my either overuse or utter absence of fucking commas depending on how drunk I am I don’t think I’ll ever be mistaken for an LLM.
