Full-on Baader-Meinhof here, seeing this posted while I am at home/in the hospital (for two days about a week ago) for the second week because of a C. diff infection I got from an antibiotics treatment for the tonsillitis prior. I do k

I've built a few perls over the past decade, and I am not sure I would want to use this build as per its linked Dockerfile as a (universal) starting point. It does not verify the integrity and/or authenticity of the 5.36 release t

I always loved the in-depth nature and clear writing style of the man page of the hwclock(8) program distributed with util-linux(-ng), and happily refer to it as an example of great documentation whenever I get a chance to: https:/&#x

Zotac ZBOX Series have always been absolutely solid for me, but they are not that cheap any more... I bought my latest x86-based router from AliExpress, and never regretted it! Review available here: https://johannes.truschnigg.i

It would be __very__ interesting to learn how much bandwidth this beautiful beast can saturate with cake managing SQM (under Linux, esp. OpenWrt), and if proper support for ECC UDIMM is implemented. What an awesome piece of networking machi

This post nicely sums up why I just cannot get excited about anyone's announcement of some new and (on paper) awesome SBC with specs much better than those of a contemporary Raspberry Pi. Software ecosystem support is THE killer featur

Please continue using "loading spinners", as they are a design language element that is, in this day and age, practically universally understood.

Yeah, I am disappointed that fanless devices have been on the retreat these past several years. My wife's previous laptop was a Lenovo Yoga 710, with a fanless Intel Core m3-6Y30 (Skylake, 2 cores with HT). Performance was more than ad

IANAL, but afaik, copyright licenses can only ever affect (re)distribution - not use.

According to my ~15 years of work experience in IT/the tech sector, this ought to be pretty accurate.

I am worried that the supreme arrogance of abstraction-builders and -apologists that this article's vernacular, too, emanates will be the cause of a final collapse of the tech and IT sector. Or maybe I even wish for it to happen, and f

When I worked in (quasi-)SRE at a somewhat busy and popular EU-based website, we "invented" our own HTTP header namespace (think like the "X-"-prefix that you see in the wild for "non-standard" HTTP headers, th

I think it is foolish to try to predict what Russia/Putin is up to once Ukraine has been dealt with (which, I assume, it/he will have achieved at some point in time). There are numerous reports of fact as well as opinion pieces pu

I've argued this stance once before, but I feel it needs reiterating on this topic: I for one am 100% convinced that whatever the (FOSS) software future has in store for the world MUST have strong support for dynamic linking. If you lo

I wish this misguided notion regarding "inofficial strict mode" would go away, as `set -e` is suboptimal (and can be very tedious to deal with on top of that): https://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/105 It makes

And boom, you have two sources of half-truths. I admit I hated this ZFS feature in Solaris 10 already, and it was the reason for more than one unaccounted leftover NFS share that ended up in bright red in audit reports.

Cool story! I can only imagine how good the person solving the riddle felt when the penny finally dropped! :) Two somewhat topical observations in a similar vein: Back in a sysvinit world, many (Debian) users would run init-scripts directly

My bad, I actually had the "production" trace command set to look for `XGetSelectionOwner`, but mis-pasted into my comment ;) Will that fare any better? It did make a few more PIDs/culprits end up in the trace output for me a

I think Linux dynamic user probes would lend themselves quite well for something like this. Fooling around with bpftrace for a few minutes yielded this one-liner, which catches all the conscious X11 selection accesses (and a few unconscious

Let me elaborate on the problem I do have with remote attestation, no matter if I can verify that the signed binary is identical with something I can build on my own. I use LineageOS on my phone, and do not have Google Play Services install
