Thom Tillis has hurt the great people of North Carolina. Even on the catastrophic flooding, nothing was done to help until I took office. Then a MIRACLE took place! Tillis is a talker and complainer, NOT A DOER! He’s even worse than Rand “Fauci” Paul!
I did not. In January 2021, I had to replace 15 iPhones for work at a remote office. That evening when I got back to the hotel I had one of the worst nights of my life having “caught” COVID. Perhaps not causative but I can’t shake the strong timeline correlation from my mind.
I'm not disregarding your experience. I'm expressing a long held frustration that these claims are widely made, and are possible, but we have little to zero actual evidence of causation.
I looked into this for myself too, and found that most of the commercially available measurement equipment would leave me with even more questions.
Agreed. It would be impossible to correlate millions of people’s phone upgrades, cell tower installations, and when they “caught” COVID. Not to go back dow this rabbit hole, and I am obviously cherry picking…
“Providers are investing an estimated $275 billion into network infrastructure to build out 5G and enhance network coverage, security, and capabilities.”
That’s just a large sum of money worthy of protecting from scrutiny…
Aside from the loss of my senses of taste and smell and subsequent alterations of them ever since, I recovered within a few days. I really only had a runny nose after the first night. I didn’t even think it was COVID simply because of how short the duration and that I knew others that were having to be hospitalized or suffered for weeks. I didn’t know for certain until I donated blood and tested positive for antibodies. I have a hard time letting it go…I don’t think we’ll ever know.

“no features in RCs” is a very basic rule, this was a forgone conclusion. If these features were so integral to data integrity, he should have kept bcachefs out of the kernel until they were ready.
My uneducated kernel take. Flexibility is acceptable and desirable in small projects or low impact projects.
When the majority of the internet and a good chunk of PC are dependent on your project, predictability and stability is much more important than flexibility.
It's an interesting filesystem, but you shouldn't use it at this point unless you know what the hell you're doing. You'll need to be able to notice, report and help resolve bugs, and under no circumstances use it for production or where you can't afford to lose some or all of the data on the partition.
This is a non-issue, being over-reported by people looking for clicks. A minor technical matter being handled by the person ultimately responsible for handling such things
Yeah for sure there's ton of clickbait, but this isn't "a minor technical matter". The news here isn't the clash over whether the patch should be accepted in the RC branch, but the fact that Linus said he wants to remove bcachefs from the kernel tree.
An experimental capability being kicked out of the kernel, so that it has to settle for being a kernel module or custom forks of the kernel, is absolutely a minor matter
Filesystems are incredibly antiquated, and while I don't agree with Kent's attitude, it is very important in the long run that filesystems catch back up.
As it stands just about any enterprise system you can poke a stick at is rolling their own customised file storage system, with a traditional filesystem typically being a misshapen dead weight sitting somewhere in the middle of it - existing because it's the only thing the kernel can integrate with.
It is pretty important that this trend reverses, and bcachefs was a big step in the right direction. Unfortunate that Kent is the way he is.
I'm really glad Torvalds is the kind of person to flip articles like this off and carry on with his day and just not be affected by it at all. When the time comes, I hope whoever carries the torch is just as well.
At the very least, it would be far more of a circus, as the follow-up articles would read "LINUX KERNEL CREATOR LINUS TORVALDS MAKES DEVESTATING REPLY TO FOSS DRAMA!"
But yeah, I think shit like that would just make devs want to go work for a company, because at least when they make a shitty closed sourced, exploitive program people are mad at the company, not them, specifically. They don't have to deal with this shit.
He posted on Patreon that there'll be a DKMS module. In my opinion, this should have been the option from the very beginning and upstreaming at a later point in time. It would have avoided a lot of drama. And now bcachefs is kind of tainted. The only way I ever see it back in mainline is there is an independent downstream of Kent's kernel that has no connection to him whatsoever.
Shame because I had very good experience with the filesystem. Definitely better than when btrfs was new. But Linus is unfortunately right; Kent is unable to follow agreed collaboration rules.
Unfortunate situation that could have been avoided entirely. Though I don't want to be too harsh on Kent. He spent a lot of time and work on bcachefs and it's his most important project. As such, he's more passionate about all of this. But the same can be said for Linus and the kernel on the other side.
The problem is that kent is a bullshitter and acted like he doesnt get what a feature freeze is. If he cant communicate with linus as to why his patch is actually bugfix then he cant contribute to the kernel.

It is great. I actually was a heavy critic of pulseaudio and stuck with ALSA on my desktop for as long as I could (until last year) by using Gentoo with USE="alsa -pulseaudio", the X-Fi's hardware mixing and automatic S/PDIF passthrough.
I tried to switch to pulseaudio a couple of times whenever I read one of those "it's good now, trust me bro" articles, but it wasn't, ever. It had and still has a huge amount of hard-coded, opinionated, often perplexing, behavioral quirks that made it feel like it just fought me every step of the way.
Pipewire on the other hand does not only have saner defaults, almost everything is softcoded with a great Lua plugin API. Don't like a default routing choice or want to automate your own, Wireplumber got you covered. Last year my X-Fi failed (or rather got flakey) and I had to choose between buying another used one or moving to PW. Almost everything worked out of the box on PW the way I like it, except a few details which were almost all covered by the settings. For the last problem, encoded streams not clearing the output, I wrote my own routing plugin.
The documentation for that API isn't necessarily the best, but it's easy to start from something small and work your way to understanding how to get the result you want.
If it's a pure DAC, it's default output will likely be between 1 to 2 Volts RMS. If your listening on iems or ~30 Ohm headphones that is gonna be crazy loud. It seems like you are using digital audio control to manage this (i.e., the audio level in your DE), which is possible, but certainly not ideal. It also is kinda bad for the audio quality, as you are digitally remixing it, and if you ever switch to high impedance headphones (or already have), the output current will be sub-ideal.
If I'm assessing your situation correctly, then this is quite easy to solve though. You just need a preamp! This will give a nice knob to control audio with much more precision and finesse. I know that both JDS Labs and Schiit Audio offer headphone amps with built in preamps in the USA. I can highly recommend the JDS Labs Atom Amp 2. In Europe your a little more limited, but FiiO has some nice options I think.
Of course none of this is necessary if you don't want audiophile levels of quality, but it would boost the audio quality (presuming your DAC doesn't have a proper preamp), and would certainly give you a tactile, wonderful knob.
I can certainly attest that my HD600s sound quite a bit better out of a JDS Labs Atom Amp 2 than out of just my DAC or—god forbid—my Mobo audio... They sound even better out of my vintage 100W Onkyo amp, of course, but really not by much. I am really impressed by the Atom Amp. I initially just bought it for travelling, but it has now basically become my main amp lol.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and US President Donald Trump have agreed to resume trade talks to reach a deal by July 21, the Department of Finance Canada announced.
The decision to invest in concrete crushing equipment represents a significant operational pivot that demands careful analysis of both market opportunities and internal capabilities. Concrete crushers for sale serve distinct business models across the construction and recycling sectors, each with unique requirements for throughput, mobility, and material specifications. Understanding which user profile aligns with your operational realities can mean the difference between an asset that drives profitability and one that becomes an underutilized capital expense.
Demolition Contractors: Volume Processors with Space Constraints
Urban demolition specialists face twin challenges: maximizing concrete recycling revenues while minimizing site footprint. Mobile impact crusher with closed-circuit screening excel here, processing 200-400 tons per hour within tight city lots. Key considerations include:
Noise-dampened models for compliance with urban decibel limits
Magnetic separators that recover rebar with 98% efficiency
Dust suppression systems meeting EPA Tier 4 Final standards
Successful operators report 35-45% gross margins on processed concrete when servicing multiple projects within a 50-mile radius. The economic model collapses when hauling materials beyond this radius, making crusher mobility essential.
Civil Engineering Firms: Precision Crushing for Infrastructure Projects
Road builders and bridge contractors require consistent aggregate sizing for sub-base materials. Jaw crushers with hydraulic adjustment provide the most stable gradation control, producing DOT-spec material with less than 10% variance in particle size distribution. Critical features include:
Hydraulic wedge adjustment for on-the-fly gap changes
Wear-part monitoring sensors that predict replacement timing
Fuel-efficient hybrid drives that cut operating costs by 30%
These firms typically achieve 18-24 month payback periods when crushing material for their own projects rather than operating as standalone recyclers.
Material Recyclers: High-Volume Aggregate Producers
Large-scale recycling operations demand different configurations entirely. Stationary crushing plants with multiple conveyor lines and automated sorting handle the 1,000+ ton/day volumes needed for profitability. The economics shift dramatically at this scale:
| Investment Component | Small Mobile Unit | Stationary Recycling Plant |
| Ideal Customer | Regional contractors | Municipal contracts |
The sweet spot emerges when processed material values exceed $12/ton and feedstock acquisition costs remain below $3/ton. Recyclers serving state DOT contracts often achieve 28-32% EBITDA margins at scale.
The concrete crushing equipment market offers solutions ranging from $150,000 trailer-mounted units to multi-million dollar stationary plants. Matching the machine to your actual ma

Caitlin Johnstone- Israel supporters everywhere have been in full blown crisis mode for days because, apparently, antisemitism smears have stopped working.
Hamas says it is willing to free the remaining 50 captives in exchange for a full withdrawal of Israeli troops and an end to the war in Gaza. Israel rejects the offer, saying it will agree to end the war if Hamas surrenders, disarms and goes into exile – something the group refuses.
If Hamas agreed to that, the surviving Palestinians would be left without any protection. It's bad enough as it is, but that would be free way to kill them all.

Wow that was fast, but as the developer said himself, clickbaity YouTubers and news sites will have a co responsibility for that. The drop of 32bit us inevitable, and in my opinion it would be smarter to think about how to do this the good way better earlier than later. But probably these kind of discussions have to be moved from public to internal I guess.
The support isn't exclusivity for native 32 bit cpus, it's for 32bit libraries that compatibility applications like wine/proton depend on to run 32bit windows executables
Even further: The support is exclusively for the 32bit libraries. The 32bit kernel and therefore cpu support was dropped a long time ago in Fedora. Fedora 31 in 2019.
No, that's how you lose users. Private, nontransparent decision taking makes projects get dropped immediately.
The timing just sucked. 32 bit has to go, but it can't be this year or next year. And it can't be a blanket drop as the dev wanted. Alternatives are not ready yet to keep gaming working, and gaming was the number 1 factor holding back desktop adoption.
He is also falling for the internet fundamental attribution error: "If I hate or love something and everybody on the internet agrees with me, it's because I'm always right and we are all intelligent individuals. If I love/hate something, and everybody on the internet disagrees, they were lied to, manipulated, astroturfed, are ignorant, misinformed, etc."
It could be true. But it could also be that your proposal is very unpopular and you're wrong.
Lol, how many people do you think are using fedora specifically for gaming? You think fedora is some last year project that'll die off once it stops supporting this specific "thing"? That's some delusion of grandeur.
May be Steam and gamers who want to keep things running without problems should step up to maintain those packages required to keep their games running. Then we'll see how fast the toxicity towards the developers die down.
Why do you think "alternatives are not ready"? Is it maybe because people who work on opensource project on their free time aren't bothered by what internet strangers think? Why aren't you working on one yourself?
People shitting on opensource devs to work beyond their comfortability are fucking shitty human beings.
If you plan it 5 years in advance, yeah, otherwise no. Also if it means destroying Bazzite, they should really think hard about it, as it's a great "product" with big potential, even for profit in the long run if it takes off.
Easy thing to say when you're not the one donating your time for free.
I love what Valve is doing for Linux, but longer term, the onus is on them to solve the 32-bit compatibility layer issue (a-la Proton for win-to-linux, as well as their upcoming x86-to-ARM layer).
Expecting all distros (who again, are staffed mostly by volunteers) to do this work separately (i.e. duplicating all that work), for all time, is a big ask.
Isn’t the context of that quote around the kernel and kernel space vs user space? I don’t see how that thought really extends to distros that simply implement the kernel as one of their packages.
No. Valve (the biggest offender) will have to make native 64-bit Steam before then, as will the remaining holdouts, so Linux distros will be able to remove 32-bit packages in a timely manner.
Removing then now will break too much to be worth doing.
I mean, I have more than one machine. Some can be closer to guinea pigs than others. In this case, it's a laptop that I don't keep anything unbacked-up on. Had Fedora on it for about 6 months and I cannot remember an update breaking anything for me so far. The previous machine I had it on was used less but I had the same experience. If you're mainly just web browsing on a machine, bleeding edge is good imo
There are and will always be distros optimized for running on everything. Fedora is a "move fast" distro, it's hard to move fast with a lot of baggage.
I think the last time I had a 32 bit CPU was around 2005 but I could be remembering that incorrectly. Supporting 20 year old hardware isn't always easy.
It isn't easy, but this isn't about the hardware. It's about the software packages. Tons of software meant to run on 32-bit hasn't been updated to run on 64-bit natively. Thus the burden of keeping a lot of packages that serve as backwards compatibility.
True, yeah I read that too. Started as a hardware thing but now it's a "this is the state of things as a result of things that were hard to change" thing.
Tons of software meant to run on 32-bit hasn’t been updated to run on 64-bit natively.
32bit only Linux apps are basically non-existent, anything with the source available and maintainers would have been ported at some point in the last 2 decades, otherwise they have very specific technical reasons for being 32bit only (like OBS iiuc), the source has been lost somehow, or it's a proprietary program where the company has no interest (e.g. Valve with Steam)
In the Fedora 31 release, the 32-bit i686 kernel and boot media are no more. Read more about the background on this change, and what to do about it, here.
To be a little more precise, Linux is still available for 32-bit x86, just not from the Fedora distro. The Linux project is just now dropping support for 486 CPUs, because the maintenance burden for a virtually unused system type is too high for the mainline. That still leaves 32-bit Pentiums and newer though.
Being able to run on everything is nice, but what you're actually asking for here is for a highly skilled (and rare) distro maintainer to dedicate substantial amounts of time to maintaining and testing thousands of packages on 32 bit systems in case someone wants to use it. It's not just like users get to click a button and voila, they can run more games than before.
If you really need to use 32 bit software, eventually you'll just have to manage it yourself because no one else is able to do it for you. That capability will almost never go away.
I don't think Apple is concerned with making every app and game work on their systems to the same degree as a Linux distro. They have a niche they seem satisfied with and that niche isn't really Steam games.
With that being said, Valve made a 64 bit client for Mac so whichever major distro is first will probably push Valve to finally make a 64 bit version for Linux.
That's a very different kind of thing. The apple ecosystem is tiny. They themselves make every single device supported by the OS. They make the only variant of the OS. They have the power to change whatever they want and everyone who wants any access to apps (or users) needs to follow apple's guidelines. They also have something close to a monopoly in certain professional use cases. So they can push whatever they want and everyone has to suck it up.
Compare that to Fedora. Fedora is just one distro in a sea of different Linux distros. They aren't even the biggest one, not by a longshot. So if they drop 32bit, that won't force Valve to move Steam to 64bit and it certainly won't push game developers to update old, unsupported games that were never meant to run on Linux at all to change anything.
Most likely, people would just move to a different distro.
It is 32bit and depends on a runtime from a really old version of Ubuntu. It is also proprietary but that is a different issue.
It would be nice if Value worked with the Fedora project to build something open and modern so that devs could easily package games for Linux. The problem is that Value wants everyone to go though Steam as Steam is where they actually make money. People like to see Value as the good guy but it isn't all sunshine and rainbows. I can't really blame them in the end but it is important to realize they have a interest that may not always align with the community.
It's the other way around: your _time32 libs will fail, especially user apps that call Fedora{Linux _time64. The kernel as of right now is safe for year 2038.
You have a decade to test everything, report, and fix. Recompilation projects for everything. I want to see year2038_bazzite_safedb.org with all the games and apps you use marked ☑ 2039+ compliant. You need to start now.
You should have started on 2004. So time to catch up! So yes, let's database the solutions an app at a time, before the decade is up!
"Last week, we reported CIA Director John Ratcliffe was taking dictation from the Mossad and furnishing Trump with absurd Israeli disinfo about Iran's nuclear program
Mossad Dir. David Barnea has confirmed our report by singling out Ratcliffe as the key to his manipulation game"
Tell phony Democrat Senator Chris Coons that I am not offering Iran ANYTHING, unlike Obama, who paid them $Billions under the stupid “road to a Nuclear Weapon JCPOA (which would now be expired!), nor am I even talking to them since we totally OBLITERATED their Nuclear Facilities.
Πώς ο υπουργός άναψε το πράσινο φως σε κτηνοτρόφους να «μεταναστεύσουν» σε άλλες περιοχές και οι νομικοί είπαν «όχι» σε μέτρα που θα μπορούσαν να αποτρέψουν ...
Ab der Sommerpause rüstet die Regierung in ganz großem Stil auf. Die Folgen kann sie kurzzeitig durch #Verschuldung kaschieren. Auf Dauer werden die meisten #Bürger die Einschnitte spüren.
Hintergrund: Heutzutage gibt allein die #EU dreimal so viel für #Rüstung aus wie #Russland. Dieser Faktor soll auf ungefähr Sechs hochgeschraubt werden. Wozu?
Überlegen ist Russland nur bei #Nuklarwaffen. Die geplante konventionelle Aufrüstung wird daran nichts ändern, ist also im Ansatz eine gigantische Verschwendung zu Lasten nützlicher sozialer Güter.
Da fehlt z.B. noch das Managergehalt, siehe #Korruption in der westlichen Ruestungsindustrie. Oder auch Stiftungen und NGOs. Aber auch die #Effizienz der Waffe macht einen Unterschied: Wie wurde die #Haubitze2000 - also die N777 in den Himmel hoch gelobt. Ein paar Schuss damit abgefeuert und das Rohr glueht bzw. wird schnell krum. Die standen am Anfang des Krieges/Konfliktes/Operation fast alle in Polen in der Wartung. Die russische Artillerie ist zwar nicht so praeziese, aber dafuer robuster und kann somit schiessen. Was bringt das tolle Aussehen im Katalog, wenn die Waffe nach ein paar Schuss kaputt ist? Selbiges mit Kalaschnikov und AR-51 im Vergleich.
Essentially, after being blackmailed by the appalling NATO Secretary-General Mark “Hello Daddy” Rutte, the European Union (EU) decided to allocate a whopping €650 billion (approximately $695.5 billion) of funds it doesn't have to buy US weapons to declare war on Russia – and later China.
That brings us to the five percent kabuki. For every NATO member to spend five percent on offense, with their combined debt already exceeding 80 percent of GDP, they would need to nearly triple the €325 billion (approximately $381.2 billion) they spent on weapons in 2024, thus reaching nearly one trillion euros.
EU citizens with a brain can easily do the math: There will be a non-stop orgy of “cost-cutting,” tax hikes, and disappearing social benefits to finance the weaponizing. And stealing €300 billion (approximately $351.75) of Russian assets won’t help, because that won't cover even a one-year increase. source

Nachdem die Europäische Union (EU) von dem entsetzlichen NATO-Generalsekretär Mark „Hello Daddy“ Rutte erpresst wurde, beschloss sie, satte 650 Milliarden Euro (etwa 695,5 Milliarden Dollar) an Mitteln, die sie nicht hat, für den Kauf von US-Waffen bereitzustellen, um Russland - und später China - den Krieg zu erklären.
Das bringt uns zu dem Fünf-Prozent-Kabuki. Damit jedes NATO-Mitglied fünf Prozent für die Offensive ausgeben kann, müssten sie bei einer Gesamtverschuldung von mehr als 80 Prozent des BIP die 325 Milliarden Euro (etwa 381,2 Milliarden Dollar), die sie 2024 für Waffen ausgeben, fast verdreifachen und damit fast eine Billion Euro erreichen.
EU-Bürger mit etwas Grips können das leicht nachrechnen: Es wird eine ununterbrochene Orgie von „Kostensenkungen“, Steuererhöhungen und wegfallenden Sozialleistungen geben, um die Bewaffnung zu finanzieren. Und der Diebstahl von russischen Vermögenswerten in Höhe von 300 Milliarden Euro (ca. 351,75 Dollar) wird nicht helfen, denn das reicht nicht einmal für eine einjährige Erhöhung. Quelle
Waging war is no longer what it used to be. Spending on military equipment is not for the protection of one's own country or the conquest of another, but rather for the benefit of a few corporations and their politicians. They may not even be interested in victory, but in selling their products.
Ukraine's Early Innovation and Later Decline
Ukraine's initial response demonstrated the improvisational nature of Fifth Generation warfare. Faced with a numerically superior enemy, Ukrainian forces leveraged commercial drone technology in ways never before seen in modern conflict.
The transformation was remarkable. Consumer drones, originally designed for photography and recreation, were modified to carry explosives. Navigation software was reprogrammed for autonomous attack missions. Social media platforms became tools for coordinating drone strikes and sharing targeting information.
Most importantly, Ukraine initially democratized precision strike capabilities. Where previous generations of warfare concentrated firepower in specialized units—artillery batteries, tank formations, air force squadrons—Fifth Generation warfare distributes strike capability throughout the entire force structure. Individual soldiers could call in precision drone strikes the way their grandfathers called in artillery.
However, by 2023-2024, Ukraine's early advantages began to erode as Russia mobilized its superior industrial capacity. While Ukraine relied heavily on Western-supplied systems and commercial modifications, Russia began mass-producing dedicated military drones. The numbers tell the story: by late 2023, Russia was producing an estimated 6,000 drones per month compared to Ukraine's few hundred.

Did you at least buy a measuring device to measure the frequencies around you?
Sir Ryan DiAsio, KWCGASD
in reply to Jazzilla • • •I did not. In January 2021, I had to replace 15 iPhones for work at a remote office. That evening when I got back to the hotel I had one of the worst nights of my life having “caught” COVID. Perhaps not causative but I can’t shake the strong timeline correlation from my mind.

I'm not disregarding your experience.
I'm expressing a long held frustration that these claims are widely made, and are possible, but we have little to zero actual evidence of causation.
I looked into this for myself too, and found that most of the commercially available measurement equipment would leave me with even more questions.
It's a frustrating landscape.

in reply to Jazzilla • • •Agreed. It would be impossible to correlate millions of people’s phone upgrades, cell tower installations, and when they “caught” COVID. Not to go back dow this rabbit hole, and I am obviously cherry picking…

“Providers are investing an estimated $275 billion into network infrastructure to build out 5G and enhance network coverage, security, and capabilities.”
That’s just a large sum of money worthy of protecting from scrutiny…
