I’m also curious about why they said that, but tbh, Fuck Boris (Johnson) is a fair thing to say pretty much anytime.

I mean, look, it’s wearing a hat

For young people? What? That doggo there has me rediscovering my faith

A gallium coin!

I watched some random small travel channels, and videos titled like “Why Vanlife sucks”, which apparently has become its own genre by now. I can’t find any really good ones anymore right now, though :( maybe this topic needs a community! I will post any videos I do find here, though.

Okay so I tried and I got a hard reality check, man. I watch way too much YouTube. Even when searching for key words I’m drowning in content or not finding anything. This is destabilizing.

For me it’s a mixture of schadenfreude, having people receive their comeuppance (as another here said) and also sympathy. I have had some bad travel experiences, and just sort of go “Oooh boy, that’s bad, come on, you got this! … but you also deserved this!”, as I might have deserved some of mine.

You have won my heart with “minor animal attacks on hikers”. Hello, friend!

When you watch it with an account, yes - and even then, I’m afraid to venture down into those depths 😬 I might try for you guys 😬

I’m trying to find some of the old videos that I watched, but it’s really hard! I guess that kind of content disappears quickly beneath the thousands of similar videos.

One of my favorites back then was a dude on his expensive BMW motorcycle traveling India, and in the chaotic traffic there he had a small crash and it bent his fork, and he also got a hairline fracture on his ankle, I believe.

So, the x-ray machines in the hospital was too bad to image that fracture. So that went untreated and caused him a looot of discomfort. Also, almost nobody in India rides such expensive BMW bikes, so it took him aaages and crazy amounts of money to get a spare part for that bike shipped from Germany, and to find a tech that could install it. It was excellent suffering born from luxury. Can recommend.

Yes, that might have been an early start into the genre for me! I fiercely love Karl Pilkington 🥲

But that is exactly what he recommends, using a password manager - with one time email authentication for the first login as an extra step, right?

I’d be interested in a discussion of his points here :) those sound like valid points he’s making

You’re not helping, but I sympathize (that AAF flashback is what got me unto this trail - and I got to AAF through this new Bam Margera doc that dropped on YouTube two weeks ago, maybe that will give you even more flashbacks)

I still find it insane how people can take almost anything on the internet at face value, apart from maybe reputable news outlets and properly reviewed research and technical stuff - and even THAT with a grain of salt.

It’s just too much fun to post bullshit, and obviously there are too many people bullshitting for so many reasons.

Look what I just did:

"In a real-time kernel, the trouble with using print_k (or similar logging functions) often revolves around potential disruptions to real-time performance. Here are some key issues:

1. Blocking Behavior: print_k may block if the output buffer is full, leading to unpredictable delays in real-time tasks.

2. Interrupt Context: Using logging functions within interrupt handlers can lead to priority inversion, causing lower-priority tasks to block higher-priority ones.

3. Latency: Printing can introduce significant latency, which is detrimental in real-time systems that require deterministic timing.

4. Context Switching: Frequent logging can increase context switching overhead, impacting overall system performance.

5. Overhead: The computational overhead of formatting and outputting strings can interfere with time-sensitive operations.

For these reasons, it’s typically recommended to use alternative methods, such as circular buffers for logging, or to minimize logging in real-time contexts.

"

Lemmy keeps amazing me with the answers that come up. Many thanks, that is great!

I wish we were!

But it doesn’t focus new tabs you opened automatically. You can configure it to do so. But I’m so lazy I want things to work the way I want them to out of the box.

I actually have very similar hardware lying around and am planning to build it into a Linux gaming machine. Could happen in the next few days. I could drop you a message if I run into issues.
