stares at the intern’s 400 line bash script

There are totally more flexible options. Just don’t mind the front falling off. It’s totally normal!

My suggestion would be to try compiling the kernel locally.its highly likely the one packaged in your distro contains extensions that you don’t have. Doing a local native compile should rule that out pretty quickly without having to disable any additional features.

Look at the line with the asm_exc_invalid_op. That seems like a hardware fault caused by an invalid asm instruction to me. Either something wrong is being interpreted as an opcode (unlikely) or maybe the driver was compiled with extensions not available on the current machine.

OP, how old is your CPU? And how old is the nic you are using?

Edit: did you use a custom driver for the NIC? I’m looking at the Linux src and rt_mutex_schedule does not exist. Nevermind. Was checking 4.18 instead of 6.7. found it now. The bug is most likely inside a macro called preempt_disable(). Unfortunately most of the functions are pretty heavily inlined and architecture dependent so you won’t get much out of it. But it is likely any changes you made in terms of premption might also be causing the bug.

stardreamer, to linux in Benchmarking The Experimental Ubuntu x86-64-v3 Build For Greater Performance On Modern CPUs
@stardreamer@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

I think we may be looking at these wrong. Yes there’s a visible throughput/latency improvement here but what about other factors? Power savings? Cache efficiency? CPU cycles saved for other co-running processes?

These are going to be pretty hard to measure without an x86_64 simulator. So I don’t fault them for not including such benches. But there might be more to the story here.

Why can’t y’all just make normal children’s food like chicken curry with rice? Stop putting so much sugar and corn syrup in everything.

If this continues we’ll have to retaliate: see how certain East Asian countries make pizzas and burgers and see how you like it! (PS: it was flatbread with corn and ham as the only toppings)

Oh and the original answer: since so many people have already answered soy sauce, I’d say chicken soup or pork broth.

stardreamer, to linux in Power Management Bugs Hold Up Some Linux Laptops Due To Regulatory Requirements
@stardreamer@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Out of curiosity, what’s preventing someone from making a regulatory db similar to tzdb other than the lack of maintainers?

This seems like the perfect use case for something like this: ship with a reasonable default, then load a specific profile after init to further tweak PM. If regulations change you can just update a package instead of having to update the entire kernel.

Btw this is most likely a scam. This is the equivalent of asking for your name, DOB, and SSN on a random app you found (the ID contains both location and DOB). Even if you have an actual ID DO NOT FILL THIS OUT. Delete, purge, and move on.

So let me get this straight, you want other people to work on a project that you yourself think is a hassle to maintain for free while also expecting the same level of professionalism of a 9to5 job?

stardreamer, to privacy in Proton Mail CEO Calls New Address Verification Feature 'Blockchain in a Very Pure Form'
@stardreamer@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

This is solving a problem we DO have, albeit in a different way. Email is ancient, the protocol allows you to self identify as whoever you want. Let’s say I send an email from the underworld (server ip address) claiming I’m Napoleon@france (user@domain), the only reason my email is rejected is because the recipient knows Napoleon resides on the server France, not underworld. This validation is mostly done via tricky DNS hacks and a huge part of it is built on top of Google’s infrastructure. If for some reason Google decides I’m not trustworthy, then it doesn’t matter if I’m actually sending Napoleon’s mail from France, it’s gonna be recognized as spam on most servers regardless.

A decentralized chain of trust could potentially replace Google + all these DNS hacks we have in place. No central authority gets to control who is legitimate or not. Of all the bs use cases of block chain I think this one doesn’t seem that bad. It’s building a decentralized chain of trust for an existing decentralized system (email), which is exactly what “block chain” was originally designed for.

There are more places where bandwidth is a bottleneck now than 10 years ago.

NIC speeds have gone from 100Gbps to 800Gbps in the last few years while PCIe and DRAM speeds have nowhere increased that much. No way are you going to push all that data through to the CPU on time. Bandwidth is the bottleneck these days and will continue to be a huge issue for the foreseeable future.

@stardreamer@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Because anyone who works at the assembly level tends to think that the x86_64 ISA is garbage.

To be fair, aarch64 is also garbage. But it’s less smelly garbage.

That being said, I’m not expecting any of these CPUs to be hanging in the Sistine Chapel. So whatever works, I guess.

stardreamer, (edited ) to linux in Does anybody use Thunderbird on Android a.k.a. K-9
@stardreamer@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Last time I checked, K-9 didn’t have OAUTH integration.

Granted, it’s been a few years, so that may have changed since then.

As much as I don’t like Gmail, I need it for work so it’s kinda important for productivity software to support that.

Edit: Nvm. Looks like they finally added OAUTH last year. Better late than never.

+1 for fairmail. Never have I seen an app so functional yet so ugly at the same time.
