Honestly, I kinda love the whole “lawyering with God” thing that Jewish folks have going on. For any religion with restrictive beliefs, there will be adherents who will try to find loopholes. I’ve been lucky enough to have an upbringing almost completely free from religion (except for a year drinking hot chocolate at a Unitarian Universalist church, which is almost not religion), but I also grew up in a super Mormon part of Utah. I’ve spent my whole life as a bit of an outsider, seeing people pick and choose which rules to follow and try to discretely find and exploit every little loophole there is. I’ve always found the hypocrisy a bit unsettling.

I think I’d really prefer it if the Mormons took the same argumentative stance with their god. It would make the picking and choosing a bit less hypocritical (which might lead to more Mormons ditching some of their religion’s shittiest and most regressive teachings), and there’d be a lot less shitty sneaking around.

Yeah, this is source-available, not open source. You have no rights whatsoever.

This comment is such a beautifully concise argument for the existence of block buttons. Toodles~

The tiered storage stuff is pretty cool. You can say “I want this data on this disk, so if I get a cache miss from a faster disk/RAM it’ll come from this other disk first.”

I believe it also has some interesting ways of handling redundancy like erasure coding, and I thiiiink it does some kind of byte-level deduplication? I don’t know if that’s implemented or is even still planned, but I remember being quite excited for it. It was supposed to be dedupe without all of the hideous drawbacks that things like ZFS dedupe have.

EDIT: deduplication is absolutely not a thing yet. I don’t know if it’s still on the roadmap.

EDIT: Erasure coding is deffo implemented, however.

What if you need to file a bug? What if you have a question on the config that’s not easily answered by the docs? If you never, ever find bugs and never, ever have questions, then sure, separate the two. There are genuinely people like that, but they’re not common. If you’re one of them, then I’m genuinely glad for you.

My opinion is this: You use software. You don’t use people, but you sure as hell rely on them.

Because Vaxry (the lead dev) got banned from contributing to wlroots or any other FDO projects.

As for why he was banned, this is the only thing I’ve read about the whole thing: https://drewdevault.com/2024/04/09/2024-04-09-FDO-conduct-enforcement.html

Basically, he violated the FDO Code of Conduct when being told that a particular thing he said/enabled in a Discord community would not be acceptable if it was seen in spaces covered by said CoC.

This appears to be his response.

Were you using the kernel module? We’re using Flatcar which doesn’t support their .ko, and we haven’t been getting panics on any of our machines (of which there are many).

Falcon uses eBPF on Linux nowadays. It’s still an irritating piece of software, but it no make your boxen fail to boot.

edit: well, this is a bad take. I should avoid commenting on shit when I’m sleep deprived and filled with meeting dread.

The other person may have responded with a fair amount of hostility, but they’re absolutely correct. I run Kubernetes clusters hosting millions of containers across hundreds of thousands of VMs at my job, and OOMKills are just a fact of life. Apps will leak memory, and you’re powerless to fix it unless you’re willing to debug the app and fix the leak. It’s better for the container to run out of memory and trigger a cgroup-scoped OOM kill. A system-wide OOM kill will murder the things you love, shit in your hat, and lick your face like David Tennant licked Krysten Ritter.

Isn’t less disease better than more? I won’t argue with you about sex or other things that people have hangups about, but HIV is also transmissible through blood. There are people who got HIV and developed AIDS for reasons that are innocent in any reasonable context. If you’re a first responder or good Samaritan, doctor, nurse, or find yourself in some other context where it’s possible for uncontrolled mingling of blood, you’re at risk of contracting HIV. If particularly vulnerable people can be completely protected, then everyone’s odds will improve.

I don’t know the tone or content of your previous messages, but I appreciate that you removed potential misinformation and took the whole exchange as a learning opportunity rather than digging in your heels.

I also appreciate that @girlfreddy@lemmy.ca simply asserted the facts present in the article as a part of their initial message. It’s nice to see positive interactions develop out of a less-than-ideal starting point.

Someone beat me to the punch about the true meaning of Oracle, so I’ll instead link this wonderful video about why you shouldn’t make the mistake of anthropomorphizing Larry Ellison: https://youtube.com/watch?v=-zRN7XLCRhc&t=1981s
