That’s supposed to be travelling at 153,545 mph, so not even half the speed of Aladdin and Jasmine. Also, the Parker Solar Probe is in space.

I find it odd, because venv is a “Suggested package”, actually. It isn’t in the list of new packages that will be installed with python3 by default.

I think the next major release of apt is supposed to be easier to read. Unless Debian neuter it.

Let’s see Paul Allen’s brain scan.

The pressure in the Apollo 1 capsule was 16.7 PSI or 1.14 atmospheres of pure oxygen. That’s almost 5.5 times the partial pressure of oxygen at sea level. At 5 PSI, the Polaris crew will only be at 1.6 times the partial pressure of oxygen at sea level.

I’d have thought ULA would do more than just turn it off and on again when the problem occurred in the past. Seems like there’s no way they’d mess with the design at this point in time though.

Whichever one has the smallest relative path to the workbook using it? How does it find the workbook if it isn’t open already?

Don’t forget that there’s a hidden system junction at C:ProgramDataApplication Data that points to C:ProgramData. Because everyone loves loops in their filesystem. Of course C:UsersAll Users is also a junction to C:ProgramData. This kills updatedb in WSL.

It should use systemd-inhibit (or whatever the dmesg dbus service is) to tell the system it’s busy. How else would the system know?

Not every program or service on your system

Of course not, but plenty do when running a task where the user is unlikely to make inputs and also doesn’t want the machine to sleep. Firefox can call org.gnome.SessionManager.Inhibit over dbus with the “video-playing” description, same for VLC. Transmission can call that interface while a transfer is in progress (with a config toggle). It seems a pretty reasonable default for samba to do the same while a long-running file transfer is ongoing.

[Samba] doesn’t copy your files for you.

Sure but it has to know when a transfer is running. It would be nice to have the option to inhibit sleep if the transfer is runs for a significant amount of time.

For sure, I don’t know the internals of Samba, but surely the server knows that it’s serving a file no matter how the client accesses it. I don’t think a few dbus messages would cause issues.

I have my own service that looks at the network traffic via /proc and a few other things. That sends the system to sleep itself if everything looks truly idle.

I do think it would be nice for a file server like samba to inhibit sleep using the standard interface for it. But yeah, I appreciate there are complications, like video playback is presumably pulling a small extent of a file at a time, so there would have to be some kind of timer before releasing the inhibition or the system would sleep between transfers.

EDIT: I just took a look; with loglevel set to 3 for smb and smb2 I see log messages like:


<span style="color:#323232;">smbd_smb2_read: fnum 1712966762, file my_video.mkv, length=262144 offset=82366464 read=262144
</span>

These occur at most 10 seconds apart when playing a video over a share from another host. I don’t see why the smbd daemon couldn’t inhibit sleep untill smbd_smb2_read hasn’t run for a minute or so. You could have a script that monitors that log output and does this externally but it’d be nice to have built in.

Ah, that’s the misunderstanding. The original comment was talking about “watching something on another pc”. Like playing a video from a desktop PC on a laptop in another room. So it’s the samba server we want to prevent from sleeping, not the client. Yes it’d be nice to have a 24/7 media server set up, but for the simple case of sharing a file from one PC to another, it’d be nice for the server not to sleep in the middle of it by default.

I mean, we have systemd-bsod now…

Not that I’ve ever seen it of course.

Huh, it’s the same as $(( )) - arithmetic expansion.
I think it’s deprecated and not in the bash manual, but it still seems to work.
