Important notes for LARBS users
Two notes for LARBS users:

  1. Xorg went through some updates last week that changed how it calculates dots-per-inch (DPI) on screens. There’s a chance that you might update and find your font extra large or small. If so, you can just manually addxrandr --dpi 96 to the beginning of your xprofile to set the DPI to the typical 96 (or whatever number looks best).
  2. I have no switched new installs of LARBS from using Pulseaudio to Pipewire as an … ⌘ Read more

Funny bug in LG TV: last Saturday I scheduled some film from yesterday for recording. Actual recording yesterday started 1 hour late. Looks like although TV knows actual time perfectly well it was not capable to “translate” schedule from CEST to CET.

My thoughts about range requests

Additionally to pagination also range request should be used to reduce traffic.

I understand that there are corner cases making this a complicated matter.

I would like to see a meta header saying that the given twtxt is append only with increasing timestamps so that a simple strategy can detect valid content fetched per range request.

  1. read meta part per range request
  2. read last fetched twt at expected range (as known from last fetch)
  3. if fetched content starts with expected twt then process rest of data
  4. if fetched content doesn’t start with expected twt discard all and fall back to fetching whole twtxt

Pagination (e.g. archiving old content in a different file) will lead to point 4.

Of course especially pods should support range requests, correct @prologic@twtxt.net?

My nutritional supplements aim should be:

  • 1 or 1.5 cups of lentils (or any beans you might like better).
  • 2 or 2.5 cups of bitter greens.
  • 1 cup of your favourite protein (or an egg), grilled, or fried with a little of olive oil.
  • 1 or 2 tomatoes, or a handful if of the cherry type.
  • No added sugars. If it is sweet, make it have fibre.
  • No added salt (or very little and ionised), as salt is everywhere.

Related, I tried wild rice for the first time yesterday. It was different, in a good way.

Standby BIG-IP F5s upgraded to TMOS 16.1 (LTS). All their pairs (now on standby) will be upgraded on Wednesday. Just giving the TMOS some time to settle down, and feel at home. Hahahaha!

You can get an Air for $1,000 (or $1,200 with 16GB). I have used it (with 8GB), and that machine flies. I can’t imagine how fast one with an M1MAX will feel.

** Data Types and Variables in C **
I’ve been writing a heap of Lua lately — this has lead to my becoming interested, again, in C. Here are some ancient notes I dug up on the most basics of data types and variables in C.

All of a computer’s memory is comprised of bits. A sequence of 8 bits forms a byte. A group of bytes (typically 4 or 8) form a word. Each word is associated with a memory address. The address increases by 1 with each byte of memory.

In C, a byte is an object that is as big as t … ⌘ Read more

An estimated 6.8 million fewer female births will be recorded across India by 2030 because of the persistent use of selective abortions, researchers estimate. — The Guardian

And from the same article:

India’s skewed ratio of men to women – currently between 900-930 females per 1,000 males – reflects India’s ingrained attitude towards girls. Boys are seen as breadwinners while girls are seen as a burden across every social class. Boys are more likely to receive more nutritious food and better medical care than girls.

That is just beyond sad.
