Did I ever tell you about that one time I needed to reinstall LinuxPPC, and I was going to wipe the drive anyway, so before I rebooted into the installer I tried running `rm -rf *` as root, just to see what would happen?

As I remember, it got as far as like /dev, and then it somehow deleted something that instantly made the system incapable of deleting files, and halted. After that I was able to cd around the system but VERY little worked

RE: mastodon.social/@mcc/116003296

I'm trying to see if I can remember what this was like. It was very, very many years ago. But if I remember right, I had cd, because that's not a command it's a shell builtin, but I no longer had ls, but I could type "echo *" and that technically *would* give me a file listing.

You don't use open source software because it's better (it usually isn't).

You don't use open source software because it's freer (it only sometimes is).

You don't use open source software because it's got better politics (it isn't always).

You use open source software because *it is the only option*. In the long run, if it isn't open source, it doesn't exist.

Email explaining Adobe is abruptly discontinuing Adobe Animate in one month.

@mcc any software that needs to communicate with a license server has a single point of failure. If someoneโ€™s writing code to deliberately stop their product working in a given circumstance then they are baking In unreliability and increasing support costs. Thereโ€™s very few less rewarding tasks than convincing software that youโ€™ve paid for that youโ€™re not actually a thief.

Thousands of sick and wounded Palestinians are eagerly waiting to leave Gaza for urgent medical care abroad as Israel opens the Rafah border with Egypt for โ€œlimitedโ€ crossings. Only five patients managed to exit today.

The border crossing โ€“ after being closed by Israel for nearly two years โ€“ will reportedly operate for six hours a day and allow the exit of only 150 people.

I've moved all my home bulk data storage to ZFS (openzfs.org/wiki/Main_Page) over the last month. (If you haven't used it, it's awesome. More than you're thinking. More than that. It's worth learning.)

So, I'm in deep-learning mode and sometimes get stuck, right? *Every* time I get stuck or confused about something in ZFS there is a Klara Systems article which explains things clearly and with technical rigor. Love it. Huge thanks to Klara folks for sharing their expertise so widely!

The Linux kernel community has quietly drafted a continuity plan for a postโ€‘Torvalds era. ๐Ÿง

Rather than naming a successor, it outlines a collective process to select future maintainers โ€” reducing โ€œbus-factor-of-oneโ€ risk while preserving open governance and trust. โš™๏ธ

Linus Torvalds says he has no plans to retire. โณ

another page from ้žไบบๅ“‰ "Inhuman!" that amused me because I'm a Halloween stan:

"Happy Halloween! The office is holding a festive little pumpkin carving contest. Here you go."

"H-HALLOWEEN?! Sir, did you forget we're all CHINESE spirits? You expect us to know what to do with a pumpkin?! Do we look like vampires and werewolves to you?!"

"... When did you guys learn how to do that?"
