I have been reading those comments, and they are quite interesting.

Hackers in the 90s:
- Phreaking
- Hackers manifesto
- Fuck "The Man"
- I wrote a kernel because IBM sucks
- I pwned the CIA
- Fuck closed source software maaan

Hackers in 2024:
- You're no longer my friend because a bureaucrat told me I can't be friends with you

We truly are living in the end of history and the government has replaced God

Some Clarity On The Linux Kernel's "Compliance Requirements" Around Russian Sanctions

https://www.phoronix.com/forums/forum/phoronix/general-discussion/1501198-some-clarity-on-the-linux-kernel-s-compliance-requirements-around-russian-sanctions?p=1501310#post1501310

Just a notice with my alter account:

Several days ago I hosted my own mastodon instance on masto.host, which I don't know what to do with it.

Now I decide to use it as my alter account. In case it's confusing that seeing someone looks like me is following you again, this is my alter account: @skyblond@m.skyblond.info

The reason I don't want ECC is the cost. I have already blown up my budget with ASUS TUF Gaming motherboard and brand new intel 13th gen i5 because I don't want to gamble on cheap stuff.

I do plan on using those cheap stuff until I saw the comment saying it's frustrating when you have to going back and forth with the customer support team.

I'm planning to build my own NAS and now decide to use Unraid instead of TrueNAS because ECC memory will be important to ZFS compared to other filesystems. (I saw this from a lot of discussions)

My question is why? I know ZFS rely on RAM for caching, but why ZFS is more vulnerable to memory corruptions? And why other systems like unraid and btrfs are not as emphasize ECC memory?

It's quite interesting to see two major voices. People from TrueNAS side suggest you must have ECC memory if you care about your data. But people from unraid side said ECC it's not worth the money.

I also think if I keep a list of hashes when I back up my data, then ECC might not be nessary at all.

I guess the best way to protect the Linux development community is bow your head to US government and start licking Biden's boots?

That list is great but it will never happen, Linus is high on his
western supremacy complex.
Most of the anger (including mine) comes from people who have just
realized what kind of a person Linus is.

He has exposed his lack of morals and inability of self reflection
with the trolls comment.
He has exposed his ignorance, coming from his state media
brainwashing, with the media comment.
He has exposed his ignorance, arrogance and blatant Russophobia with
his "I'm Finish" comment, as if
Finland has any high moral ground when it comes to WWII (for the
historically ignorant: Finnish "concentration camps").

And this is not over, there are plenty of other countries and entities
on the official USA enemies list.
The real majority of the world, all of us outside the USA and their
vassal states, their so called "free world" (one maintainer
actually used that blatant display of American supremacy in a commit
removing Huawei maintainers) are looking at this
with sadness and anger.
The Cold War 2.0 has came to the Linux world and as in the first one,
the Iron curtain has been erected
by those that claim moral high ground with their false values of
freedom, openes, merit etc.
