RIP Daniel Bristot de Oliviera

This week, we lost one of the great minds of our generation. Daniel dedicated the last 14 years of his life to creating an academic model for real-time threading. This work eventually led to the Linux Kernel runtime verification (RV), providing a practical use case for these models. He authored RTLA (Realtime Latency Analysis tool) that provides analysis of real-time performance and debugging based on models generated from RV. This marked a revolutionary approach to kernel debugging that relied on BPF and tracers to build live models of the current system state, as opposed to the historical method of black-box statically generated system states (i.e., kernel dumps and trace-cmd).

While his work focused on real-time models, RV's reach expanded to general models of the stock Linux kernel (PREEMPT RT disabled) and successfully replaced tools like trace-cmd and, in some use cases, kdump. Today, I want to not only mourn the kernel legend that he had become but also the man himself. I had the honor of working with him, and the joy he brought into each and every room cannot be overstated. He blended a unique combination of compassion and genius that is rarely seen in the field of computer science, particularly at the level he reached. I will forever miss our casual fireside chats, our light-hearted debates about the best Prosecco drinks, and much, much more. RIP Daniel, you will be deeply missed by everyone in the community.

To All Discord Users.

If you receive a message from a friend or random user that says they reported your account because they mistook you for someone else. BLOCK and REPORT, this is a common tactic used to take over another's account because they have the person try to message a "Discord Representative," in order to obtain personal information. I've noticed a sharp uptick in users losing accounts due to this so if you read this, Remember to block and report!

Death and Plex

What have others done with their Plex libraries upon their very foreseeable future?

For me, the doctors have given me 6 to 12 months to live with my stage 4 metastatic cancer (colon, liver, lungs). I think I have a nice family library of some 60TB of materials.

Do they just have their executor toss the drives and media? CAn't donate it to a thrift store.

What is the point of tables?

In all my years using Excel, I've never seen the advantage of tables as opposed to just entering the data into the sheet. I can still define ranges, drag down formula, create pivot tables, format, etc. Do tables offer anything I can't just do manually?

My activity feed, liked videos, and favorited videos aren’t loading but my for you page is still working and can still be refreshed too. I can also still view my own videos I posted too. Does anyone know what’s happening?

Devastating Lesson Learned :( My 8TB hard drive died.

I'm kind of at a loss and kicking myself right now. I was getting my oil changed today and was going to listen to some tunes with Plexamp. But several of my artists weren't showing up. I get home and my second drive, an 8TB external USB HDD is not responding. When I reseat the cables, it makes a clicking sound for a bit then silence.

I wouldn't mind so much, but I have no idea what music (movies or TV shows) were on that drive. I don't care so much about the movies and TV shows. I'm just so frustrated at myself for not having a more solid setup with backups.

The sort of good news is that the majority of my music was purchased through bandcamp and I can just re-download.

Like the title says... Lesson learned.

Arch is the easiest distro for power users.

I've been learning Linux for about 8 years now. Was big into minimalism, rolling my own oasis Linux setup. Then life changed and I didn't have enough time.

I've been using alpine for years now but it's always been a pain getting stuff running.

Just recently went back to arch and it has gotten significantly better since I last used it. The ecosystem is just so full of power users making top quality scripts. You can sneeze and setup anything in 5 seconds. It's just great.



Just curios how many people keep every show or if you purge your libraries every once in a while of these "daily" shows, whether it is from Jimmy Fallon to the View or Jeopardy to the Daily Show? Do you purge it monthly, yearly, do you have a script?
