@AmpBenzScientist They have systems like that in data centres. You want to leave real quick or you'll suffocate.

Still thinking about that one time when I shot a training video as a freelance gig, and later on, watching the footage again, I realised that the talent was probably drunk. He was so nervous about being in front of a camera that he got drunk to relax a little. It's like Nancy Pelosi. I remember watching a live broadcast of her on CNN and I realised she was drunk. People will drink to numb their feelings before going to work, so they can think logically and endure the stress.

The fire alarm keeps going off in this condo all the time. Horrible loud noise. Lots of false alarms. It's like a psychologic terror operation. If there is an actual fire in here, people will ignore the alarm and die in the fire. I can go and look at the fire alarm panel to see which apartment unit triggered it this time and if there's not any smoke coming out, I'm not leaving the building.

An old friend of mine has this on his Discord user page. What is an "online terrorist" exactly? A troll? And what do they mean by "suspected"? What am I supposed to do about such a vague statement? He is a guy from Florida that I've known for many years. Last time I asked him what he's up to, he was training to become an aircraft mechanic.

Track down guy to see how he did X… and he used the “horrible thing” everyone says they don’t do and does anyway. Floating point math tricks. :shrugz:

Doing some evening hacking, bringing up the @PINE64 #PineTabV with upstream Linux (6.8-rc3) with only a new DTS and no additional patch!

So far it boots with working console output and eMMC/µSD, but that's about it...

#LinuxMobile #LinuxOnMobile #MobileLinux #RISCV

@lupyuen the patch introduces a new function called `flush_icache_range_phy` that flushes the instruction cache for a given range of physical addresses. It uses assembly instructions to perform the cache flushing operation. additionally, `flush_icache_range` macro is modified to call the new `flush_icache_range_phy` function instead of `flush_icache_all`

It's likely that the T-Head C9xx processor has its own cache synchronization mechanism tailored to its specific architecture and requirements

@lupyuen generally, in a multi-level cache hierarchy, such as the one in the T-Head C9xx processor, it's crucial to maintain data consistency between different levels of cache (because modifications to data can be made in one level of cache and need to be propagated to other levels to ensure that all caches have the most up-to-date version of the data). Cache sync typically involves two main operations: cache invalidation and cache flushing

@synlogic He is an old friend of the family (has been over to eat dinner with my mom and dad multiple times). So i am admitidly bias in the sense that I have some sense of him that others may not from the media.

That said I do feel his racism is transparent even if one reviews his public record. 1) he started his career and spent most of the initial part of his career fighting to keep segregation alive. He specifically stated the reason was because he didnt want his white child going to school with other minorities in what he deemed (his words) a "racial jungle". So its clearly established he has deeply racist roots that defined much of the start of his career.

Later it becomes more subtle. Afterall Biden like any smart politician will do what he needs to remain in power. So once racism started to become something that hurt him he moved from oppression to exploitation. Now he exploits minorities by giving them oppertunities (for example in cabinet roles) that are still subservient to him, but such candidates would be a fool to decline for career purposes. In effect taking the "im not racist i have black friends" approach to racism by exploiting them to make himself look good.

It is obvious all the smae underlying racism remains, however, based on how he speaks. For example the famous line he made just a year or two ago "If you dont vote for me, you ain't black" when asked about black voters who dont like him. This is revealing for two reasons 1) he thinks he knows better for blacks what is good for them than they even know themselves, and disagreeing with him, a white person, on whats best for a black person would mean you loose your black card (whatever the hell that means). and 2) his use of broken english "ain't" a word he never normally uses shows that he relates black people to being uneducated and he felt that by expressing himself in broken english he would appeal more to black people, clearly showing his racist way of thinking.

People say that tall people make for good electricians. My dad (who is also tall) did that in his 20s, but he had to quit because it hurt his shoulders so much to raise his hands all day. You do a lot of work in ceilings as an electrician. I think I would develop the same problem pretty quickly.
