Project Lazarus, the best of eq without most of the pain.

I got a monkey off my back I didn’t even know I was carrying for 20 years.

    Unix has had a long running convention of separation between “operating system” and other files, so you can blow away something like /opt or /home without making your system unbeatable.

    If you stick stuff under /usr/bin then you have to track the files especially if there are any conflicts.

    Best to just add another path, I use ~/bin because it’s easy to get to and it’s a symlink from the git repo that holds my portable environment, just clone it and run a script and I’m home.

    InverseParallax ,

    Fyi /usr/local/bin is for system wide applications, freebsd and it’s friends use it for non-core software installs.

    InverseParallax ,

    Did that a few times, the difficulty is keeping it up to date with new releases or distro hopping, I just git clone my environment with a bin path and distro specific environment variables.

    Uhh, God I hope so, wait, how was this a question?

    Putin dismisses importance of U.S.-supplied weapons to Ukraine (www.nbcnews.com)

    A Russian missile attack killed two civilians in an apartment building in southern Ukraine on Wednesday, local authorities said, as President Vladimir Putin dismissed the importance of a new U.S.-supplied weapon that Kyiv used to execute one of the most damaging attacks on the Kremlin’s air assets since the start of the war....

    I’m just going to point out that we made this thing in the 90s to fight an enemy we didn’t expect this thing to do more than mildly wound.

    This wasn’t a great wunderwaffen, this was just our version or advanced artillery, and here it is shattering parts of the Russian army at a stroke.

    The greatest generation would be so confused.

    Counter-counterpoint: we have a lot

    InverseParallax ,

    What’s sad is that after the Soviet Union fell… we decided to go ahead and finish the F-22.

    That’s not even overkill, that’s just insulting their mother.

    That doesn’t make him criminally liable unless he can be proven to be criminally negligent.

    That’s a very high bar to clear, even as producer, he would have had to personally, knowingly hired someone who clearly was not qualified.

    She had other jobs as armorer before, that’s pretty much a solid defense (unless people died there too).

    It’s not that, it was nvidia almost buying arm which scared everyone shitless.

    Coax can do much more, it can also run symmetrically vs the asymmetric, slow af upload channel that makes it feel like garbage that they give us.

    Upgraded to Comcast Business with 200mbps upload for work, finally feels like I have actual broadband, those upload speeds are brutal.

    I’m going to need more bullets.

    No, because they’re milking their old infra as much as they can, and not properly supporting modern technology.

    Distro for experienced Linux user

    Hi, I’m looking for a distro for my laptop. My first distro was Pop!_OS, then I switched to Fedora, then Arch for a year and 2 months ago I switched to Fedora Silverblue, because I wanted to try immutable distro that relies on containers and flatpaks to be usefull. Silverblue is great but not so much for me, its not flexible...

    InverseParallax ,

    I use debian as my absolute base and build lxc containers for everything above that with my own kernel, works for me.

    I set my own complexity, but debian also doesn’t get in my way which works for me.

    Ubuntu container for dev work (c++ mostly), arch container for some stuff, few vms for private data.

    InverseParallax ,

    Oh sorry that was badly written, I compile my own kernel and run lxc on top of that, with debian base userspace otherwise.

    Then kvm on top for really different stuff.

    For my server it’s debian on the bottom with zfs file serving raidz2, and on top of that 1 kvm for debian docker containers, and 1 kvm for freebsd jails which actually hosts most of the services I care about, docker is fallback if they’re a pain to set up.

    So the sino-indian war was in 62, but they’ve been salami slicing in aksai chin the past decade, and this is acknowledged by outside observers.

    China isn’t just brutal to its own people.

    You see, Killbots have a preset kill limit. Knowing their weakness, I sent wave after wave of my own men at them until they reached their limit and shut down.

    Exhibit A

    InverseParallax ,

    You’re talking about 2 things: 1. Strict aliasing to guarantee nobody does anything stupid with the pointers, and 2. Bounds checking at compile time with runtime checks for anything that cant be guaranteed at compile time.

    There are analysis passes that do this, coverity did some, as does gcov though less well.

    Major airline faces backlash after using ‘ghost flights’ to exploit a legal loophole: ‘They weren’t even selling tickets’ (news.yahoo.com)

    In this case, Qatar Airways was making these extra journeys to avoid caps that allow it to make only 28 weekly trips to Australia’s major airports, which includes Melbourne. Landing at Adelaide Airport, which is not among that list, as the final destination enabled the airline to make additional journeys to Melbourne, as there were no limits on flights to non-major airports.

    Cute.

    Heh, we did our own, but yeah that would be nice.

    Open hardware single board computer server recommendations?

    Hi, I am looking for a SBC to self host stuff on. I would like it to be somewhat open hardware (manufacturer provides schematics and drivers are open source). Which is why I initially wanted to buy a banana-pi router but after reading a post in this /c/ I found that mainline linux support is fairly rare in these arm/riscv SBCs....

    Yy3568 has most if not all of that, sata also and thats hard to find.

    Oh yeah, it’s a 3588, all out of tree, I’m very similar.

    That took me a second.

    Beautiful, especially Murdock.

    Optimization, son.

    InverseParallax ,

    I do this using lxc, all my environments are different, debian base, arch gaming and some browsing, Ubuntu for work, etc.

    Look at lxc-create -t download

    Then you just add permissions for the child os to access the x11 and dri and it’s gorgeous.

    F15s still hunger …

    InverseParallax ,

    Drones, yes. Infantry? Less so.

    Dudes have to be well prepared, equipped, have solid Intel and the tanker has to either be stupid or have bad leadership.

    The tanks should keep their distance and support infantry while keeping a look out on thermal for anything that gets too close. They have emergency features like trophy (it’s a explosion that shoots down missiles) but mostly they wait for infantry to find targets for them to blow up.

    In tank-tank combat they often let their infantry fall back while they lock on at range and hope their gunnery is better.

    It’s just that pulseaudio was written by people who hate software.

    Yes but barely, amd had a trash software group which has gotten much better.

    But the nvidia stack is still sophisticated beyond belief, Cuda is still the foundation and the amount of effort nvidia put in is incredible.

    They are modern day robber barons but they built a beautiful stack.

    They did it to end the genocide of the khmer rouge.

    1, aimed at the Kremlin as a symbol sounds good.

    InverseParallax ,

    I mean, that’s something that crosses all cultural boundaries, right?

    InverseParallax ,

    Absolutely, I’m 100% willing to give them the benefit of the doubt in anything not involving hockey.

    But if India is about to make the playoffs, we need to take Canada’s claims with a healthy dose of skepticism.
