CumCrust Cable Modem Trash


I'm on my 13th or 14th Comcrap cable modem and it has gone apeshit. Don't know if it's hacked or what I have six static IP's and my workstation is on one of them, however it is translating my address to a totally different address and that address is in the modem. So basically hardly anything is working. Can't login in to it, it redirects me to a page that says to login when I login. Already tried power cycling, no help. Argh!
in reply to Harka

@Harka Unfortunately with Comcast, when you have static IPs, you lose this in a factory reset and they have to come out and reset everything anyway. They have their own custom firmware. This is also what prevents me from buying a decent router with non-Cisco firmware, something like Ubiquiti or dd-wrt. On Verizon you can just clone the ethernet address and everything will work but Comcast uses a different protocol and this does not work on their network.

Kernel Upgrade Friday August 5th 11pm Pacific Daylight Time (GMT-0700)


I am tentatively scheduling a kernel upgrade for all eskimo.com services this Friday pending successful testing of 5.19.0. I’ve only installed it on two machines at present, the web server because it is really heavy on context switches and uses many computer language used in web programming, including C, C++, java, python, php, ruby, and context switching is often where Linux either barfs or has efficiency issues, and on my workstation where I also have several virtual machines and thus can test kvm-qemu which is heavily used to provide our services.

This will affect all Eskimo North services including private virtual servers, web hosting, shell servers, and mail. It will affect our public services including friendica.eskimo.com/, hubzilla.eskimo.com/, and nextcloud.eskimo.com/, and our website eskimo.com/.

So far I am highly optimistic. It’s cut the load time for our PHP page down to 76ms cached, 82ms uncached. Pingdom Tools won’t give you these numbers because there is too much latency in their tools, but Firefox web development tools will, and this is coming from a different network (Comcast). This is at least an order of magnitude better than our fastest competitor and as much as two orders of magnitude better than our slower competitors so I am very happy with these results.

We skipped 5.18 because it had stability issues with kvm-qemu but so far these have not manifested in 5.19. I am particularly impressed with the results because 5.19 added many new device drivers and debug tools as well as other tools. Usually when you increase the complexity of a kernel to this degree it doesn’t result in good things for performance, but not the case with 5.19.

These are tickless kernels, I always build them this way because why waste CPU cycles rescheduling tasks when there is nothing in the run queue? If you care to try them and perhaps assist with testing or just want to maximize the performance of your hardware, I make them available at eskimo.com/kernel/. Please take the time to read the README file as it describes the differences in the various kernels available. The .config’s are also present should you care to build yourself. These are all compiled with the most current release of gcc, gcc 12.1.

This is my favorite Superbus song. The recording is perfect, the highs in the cymbals absolutely clean, bass clean, voice is so sexy, no clipping or distortion, and the lyrics are at the same time whimsical and deep.

C'est ma chanson préférée de Superbus. L'enregistrement est parfait, les aigus dans les cymbales sont absolument propres, les basses propres, la voix est si sexy, pas d'écrêtage ni de distorsion, et les paroles sont à la fois fantaisistes et profondes.

I'm glad she pronounces DemonRats properly. The 3G/5G thing is a bit too woo-woo for me but I agree with her on the issues.

Second Life and Wine


My favorite online game (Flyff) is going through a real dead period, in part because of a new competing version called Flyff Universe which is browser based and thus works on any platform that can host a web browser.

So out of boredom I opted to try installing Second Life on Linux so I downloaded the installer and type wine64 plus the file name (it was an .exe).

It complained a bit but when it got done, I could fire-up the Second Life viewer and it worked flawlessly.

The UN is just WEF's Enforcers and do NOT server the interests of the planet.

Melt season is over for Greenland, and the entire summer ice melt was less than the 1981-2010 average, you wont hear that in the news.
