[02:18:53] + brothchild i've ogtten brainlazy and forgot sysrq

[02:19:00] + brothchild but you dont want to forget sysrq

[02:19:04] + brothchild Alt + SysRq + f: This invokes the kernel's OOM killer.

[02:20:21] + brothchild thx End3r

[02:21:14] + brothchild have the days started to blur together for you

[02:22:12] + brothchild they didn't when i was a kid

[02:23:12] + brothchild i suspect that's because our brains were changing fast per unit time

[02:24:39] + brothchild "In the middle of the road" https://genius.com/Pretenders-middle-of-the-road-lyrics

[02:24:50] + brothchild great song, eternal

[02:25:21] + brothchild The middle of the road is no private culdesac

[02:25:21] + brothchild I can't get from the cab to the curb

[02:25:23] + brothchild Without some little jerk on my back

[06:50:20] + brothchild i will just say NO to snacks today

[14:42:53] + brothchild "In matters of philosophy and science, authority has ever been the great opponent of truth." - William Stanley Jevons, 1871

[14:56:12] + brothchild It seems the meaning of the phrase by Jevons is clear, in what way is it inapplicable.

[14:56:21] + brothchild ?

[14:58:34] + brothchild it's interesting that the german has twenty words for 'authority' like the eskimo has 20 words for 'snow'

[14:59:28] + brothchild i think you have a valid point Zathras

[14:59:59] + brothchild english doesn't distinguish between for example an authority respected for past performance, and an authority that enforces his decrees by force

[15:00:22] + brothchild thank you for your insight

[15:01:19] brothchild someone taught me something in IRC! /me rings bells, runs around happily

[15:03:55] + brothchild no it's true

[15:04:13] + brothchild i have been frustrated by 'authority' before actually

[15:04:29] + brothchild but you absolutely proved your point

[15:13:55] + brothchild Yeah! This deserves to be an article Zathras

[15:14:08] + brothchild We'll educate the anglo-saxons a bit on this.

[15:22:04] + brothchild In a philosophical sense, it's applicable to linux. The linux community has authorities but few who can command what the OS should be like.

[15:28:55] + brothchild My llm fails in many embarassing ways to write an article on this :)

[16:41:23] + brothchild it is nice to have a place to tawk about linux

[16:43:36] + brothchild so a used rtx3090 would amortize in 8.3 years of your online llm use

[16:44:09] + brothchild they're really putting their thumb on the scales here

[16:47:16] + brothchild thanks for china making small models competent, the gimped west can't.

[20:43:02] + brothchild please take it to your usual slum wandfar

[20:50:56] + brothchild calendar is very personal preference thing feature-wise

[20:51:10] + brothchild also cant your wayland run x apps
