Linus Torvalds has proper motivated reasons for really disliking file systems without a case sensitivity.

Read this with me from the kernel lkml, regarding bcachefs.

After having read what horrors people experience when they upgrade their Hugo binaries, I made sure that I've kept the version that I used to make my test site and also consequently use *that* version to continue to teach myself a high level of fluency in the markdown language

`hugo version`
hugo v0.140.2-aae02ca612a02e085c08366a9c9279f4abb39d94+extended linux/amd64 BuildDate=2024-12-30T15:01:53Z VendorInfo=gohugoio

When I need docs I do

`man command'

When I pressed F1 in a gui program it did the following

* Request a helper running in my DE to parse a html page
* Ask the helper to open my default html parser
* __Without asking me__ the helper opened a __massive browser__ ravaging ram just to show me what I could find with
`man command`
* I wonder why instead the Ui program did not do the following

* request a helper open a (ba)sh
* parse >man command to the helper
* have the helper display the manpage in the sh

The results would be
* Much less resources used
* No assumption on my current internet connection would be made
* That method has worked for 60 years

<IRC>
/m shakes head and looks at the massive browser showing the equivalence of a manpage

Do you remember me talking about this wonderful article? the one where you are taught in detail with source snippets how Linux goes bye-bye when it goes to sleep?
The article has so much in-depth details that it takes a lot of time, considerable inteligencia & knowledge to process. Contrary to others I will not only say it, I will explicitly state it is fascinating and a heavy read.

Take your time to process the article; it's worth learning this in depth, in miniatures detail, all the way down to the sources, so you know what goes on, when the power management or your Linux powered VM, or Linux powered Hardware machine, goes down, hard, inexplicable:

To you it will become explainable!

I'm one of those individuals who just started reading the manual of golang from beginning to end

I'm a serious as your next heart attack. Please don't get one

So I want to pick up a golang again because I only sat and read the manual, just for fun, just like I did when I was sitting and reading the manual for the Yamaha RD400 two stroke, decades ago, one of the most powerful street legal engines that Yamaha made in the 2-stroke version.

One thing I can tell you about that bike

IMHO, the Yamaha RD400 two stroke, is one of the most beautiful bikes that Yamaha has ever created

The RD400 two-stroke by Yamaha is one of the most wonderful two-stroke engines the Yamaha has put on a frame made it street legal so we could ride it without being a racer.

The only caveat is that you had to ride it on a circuit anyway

The Yamaha RD400 could go 360 km/h easily, without even Breaking The 12000 RPM Barrier. The bike could do 16,000 RPM with the proper mechanical motifications made by many powerfull race Brands. Doe K&N and Kerker ring a bell?

It's with the same dedication that I read the manual of golang, from bottom to bottom, top to top, side to side and diagonal to diagonal.

Then my workstation died

Let's take 60 seconds of silence for the death of my workstation.

I didn't mourn its death, but I stopped playing with golang.

Now I'm back, playing again with golang!

No who says programming isn't Fun

Why create discussion on something controversial of which you know that it has not materialized within The Awesome VLC?

I'm correcting myself without removing my words. It seems like VLC is teasing that feature

I don't want it.

It is unnecessary and it eats resources
