@drewdevault Have a look at what Vesteda is offering. I’m currently renting a 130 sqm semi-detached house from them in Almere for just below 1200 a month.

I have never used a proxy during a Linux installation but I have never not been asked if I wanted to

If I reply to your patch with feedback do me a little favor and let me enjoy 10-15 minutes of a smaller inbox before sending your v2 😉

@puppygirlhornypost osdev wiki for sure

puppygirlhornypost,
@puppygirlhornypost@transfem.social avatar

@drewdevault OSDev wiki is definitely a decent collection of resources even without building a kernel in mind. There's been times that OSDev wiki has helped explain why my system was acting unusual - https://wiki.osdev.org/RSDT comes to mind. It definitely helped me respect kernel developers a lot more, and understand why linux for the longest time had issues with suspension(hibernation to windows). I am very interested in cpu schedulers and dealing with paging... it's also a topic that I deliberately avoid because it's so incredibly complicated when you get into virtual memory management, page sizes and so on... It's a curse really that I am most fascinated by some of the HARDEST parts of kernel development and at the same time stuck in that mysticism around it, hesitant to just take a dive.

Anyone know where I can get my hands on one of these?

@drewdevault @MadMike77 I have a dell m4800 with a haswell processor native serial port via the dell dock. I use it to play with my vt100. It’s only exposed on a certain dock but the second it’s plugged in the bios recognizes the serial port and lets me configure what setting to run it under as if it was native. Might be able to find some more modern dell machine with the old dell dock port.

@drewdevault @MadMike77 also of use is things like a parallel port and other fun things exposed by it. Seems like you already found something else but I wanted to give my two cents since I have my vt100-aa with a null modem cable working fine over serial with the dell dock.

All this bias against nagels algorithm makes me feel like not enough people grok good systems programming fundamentals

jonasvautherin,

@drewdevault
Isn't the problem that there is a conflict between Nagel's algorithm and delayed ACK?

Or maybe can you elaborate on your thought there? Like is there an obvious solution that people generally miss? Genuinely curious, I'm not a systems programming expert at all.

Any good assemblers and linkers which are broadly GNU compatible but written in C and simpler than binutils?

drewdevault,
@drewdevault@fosstodon.org avatar

@grimmy yeah I think this may be it

python,
@python@fosstodon.org avatar

@drewdevault Zig has a self-hosted ELF (and Mach-O) linker. Assembler is still clang, though

Wow so today I learned that egregious labor violations are utterly widespread throughout the yoga industry

A friend was describing how they "volunteer" at their local yoga studio in exchange for free classes by working 4 hour shifts at the cash register... of a for profit company... where they report to a manager... and whose owner takes regular expensive vacations and lives in a beautiful, spacious home...

Upon further research I found out that this happens at MOST OF THEM

@hatpinhacker report it to the local labor authority and they can probably collect back pay

(the purpose of all of this is to prevent poor people and immigrants from getting homes, in case you hadn't figured that out on your own)

@drewdevault Many apartments in Germany require a credit score that you can't have if you haven't lived in Germany before.

It's excluding immigrants by design.

I have now received four notices from the IRS informing me that they need 60 additional days to figure out why they overcharged me by $16,000 on my taxes, which is to say, 240 days and counting
