"But what if they start putting fries in my ports? I can't have fries without any ketchup!"

I must be dumb cause I still need 3 tries to plug in a HDMI/DP port.

USB B takes 6 tries: first three times in a RJ45 port, then 3 more after realizing I've been messing with the wrong port all this time.

  1. Attempt to plug in the USB A device
  2. If you succeed. End procedure
  3. Otherwise, destroy the reality you currently reside in. All remaining universes are the ones where you plugged in the device on the first try.

That wasn't so hard, was it?

Sometimes you're working on an IoT device in a tight space, which makes rotating/seeing everything much harder.

Especially if you drop the cable it falls into a crevice somewhere.

You probably won't have trouble plugging it in the first time, but gods forbid you unplug/replug it then the cable rotates 540 degrees and you have no idea how it was plugged in before

Zen kernel should be fine. I've been running it for 4 years and haven't had any issues specific to zen.

Many years ago when I was still doing my undergrad I had a cyber security prof talk about side channels:

”There's no way to prevent side-channels. As long as two components are sharing the same physical resource there will be side channels. The only problem is that these side channels are leaking way more bits than we expected.”

So the question here is how big does the side channel need to be to leak something sensitive from memory? Turning off mitigations will almost certainly lead to larger side channels. Whether that is worth the risk is up to you.

And Quic, and Pony express, and GFS...

Udon straight outta the pot while I try to slurp it down?

I'm a slow eater okay?

115C is a 600W GPU's throttle temp. I would love to see an iPhone pull off 600W with a battery.

Is there a good/easy way to defrag a btrfs filesystem after 3-4 years of continuous use? At this point I can't tell if my SUSE install was slow all those years ago or it's just been getting worse over time.
