Very accessible walk-through of how Linux implements a spinlock on Arm32:
blog.regehr.org/archives/2173 If you aren't interested in Arm, but are curious about spinlocks, read the first half of the post where the author shows a primitive spinlock followed by a much more fair ticket spinlock.

@xenodium Immediately though of emacs's xembed and mplayers's capability to use it...

@m0xee Give a glance to kmonad as well, both are in void's default repo.

Enjoy your vintage computers properly, preferably while touching grass. Well, not much grass here, just a pile of rotten sticks 😒

@m0xee up to this day I regret not bying this armbook when it was around. I think it was just something like 8-10k₽ 10 or so years go.

@pell void is fairly quick on these, there are many security crusaders in the community.

@digichelle Last option is for true linux users, of course.

@grumpygamer open source classic overhead shooter, #CDogsSDL

cxong.github.io/cdogs-sdl/

Was a freeware DOS game from 1997-2001, open sourced and I’ve been maintaining since 2013

One of the unusual features is that it can read wolfenstein 3d data, so if you have that installed via steam or gog, you can play through that whole game but overhead instead of first person

@ArchMaker I voted vim, but just because I use emacs evil mode.

Astra Linux uses *patched* therminus as default font in their terminal emulator. 🤔 Someone there is a man of culture, I see.

You know how some people that know Java don't put it on their résumé because they don't want to work in Java?

For me, that's #autotools, #autoconf, #automake

PSA: please switch your projects to #Meson

@mgorny Always escalate.

- Can I ask you something, mister?
- You can't, your highness.

- Can I request something, friend?
- No, you can't, darling.
