Reading through gprof's manual, and reading OpenBSD source code to understand why its spinlocking.

If nothing else, it's helping getting the rust off on low level system programming.

TIL I learned you need to enable hyperthreading on OpenBSD by hand.

I get the security risk, but man, it would have helped to figure out why it was much slower than expected.

I wonder if the problem on MBP was due to the same factor.

So just heard a new type of scam literially done on my neighbor. The guy posed as the local utility worker, and got the bill, and then added himself to the neighor's iDevice FaceID.

I saw this scam in the past, but he managed to hook my neigherbor. I wasn't able to stop that, but I warned them shortly afterwards, and told them to reset FaceID and be careful.

Sometimes all you can do ...

So it looks like OpenBSD/arm64 on a M2 mac has some really weird spinlock issues. I have't decided if I really want to debug this, but it's interesting trying out the ARM ports of everything.

On the down side, I have misplaced a car key. O the plus side, my apartment is much cleaner than its been in awhile.

Pretty optimistic it will turn up. It may be in the car itself, so I'll have to go check when the sun is up.

I got to say having put in a lot of long hours with netBSD as of late, I am really wondering how viable moving some of my servers over to *BSD is.

The ham radio equipment has come out of the box.

I'm actually planning on keeping this, so I'm goig to just hook it up so I can't accidently toss a part.

I'm also debating at this moment if I really want to go back to mutt email, and perhaps a tiled window manager. I really hate what modern computing has become, and I'm looking to simplify it.

Drastically.

You know what> I just forked up $39 USD for Incompetech/Kevin MacLeod's entire CC-Attribution music library.

I've used his music before without issue, YouTube even has it in its creator library, and that's a quick and easy download. I've earned more than $39 USD from his work alone, so I'm happy to pay this.

If this works, then I'll just keep building a usable library of CC tracks.

Well, NetBSD-10 GENERIC doesn't boot on the MicroVAX.

NetBSD 10-INSTALL does, and will infact boot a system off the HDD if its recompiled to remove the RAMdisk.

We're going to bave to do some debugging next stream.

I've now used two different content ID safe music, and I still am getting claimed. I'm like ... you know what?

Fine. I just need to accept this and hope I can convince supporters to help cover the fact that I can't seem to get a stream through content ID anymore.

Progress in two screenshots:

The first is distributed.net crunching RC5-72 on the VAX. 8,188 keys on its single 25Mhz processor.

The second is my MacBook Pro, after I patched dnetc to build on Mac OS X/aarch64. 8.9 million keys!
