Torvalds kicked out a bunch of Russia-based kernel maintainers.

They were just called ‘tomatoes’ on the label. They also were more sweet than sour, and over-ripened.

You can use plum tomatoes, they are usually the cheapest, and will have the taste closest to the tomato paste.

If you don’t add the meat, this becomes a classic vegetarian pasta recipe. Eat with a slice of Brie, or grind some hard cheese on top. Or simply put sliced cheese on top, it is going to melt anyway.

The main reason is that I’ve got this can of pork for free, and it wasn’t super high quality, with skin and sinew. Eating it as-is was meh, so my choice was either to dump it into a soup, or army-style macaroni, which is a downgrade of navy-style macaroni, the recipe is literally - dump the can of meat into a pasta, and you can replace the pasta with instant noodles for an extra decrease of cooking time and dish quality.

The security issue is very likely scenario. If you’re in Russia, you can go to jail at any moment on totally bogus charges. It is very easy for FSB to pressure some random kernel maintainer into adding hard to detect backdoor into their code, it will be XZ situation all over again.

Yes they do. See the long-standing debate over the ban to export crypto algorithms to Iran.

Speed-wise, multiple processes and multiple threads should be identical, if you are using the same primitives (shared memory, system-wide semaphore).

Threads are easier to use and use less RAM, because all your memory is shared automatically, and system-wide semaphores have complicated API.

What about systemctl poweroff ?

I had made pasta with fresh tomatoes exactly once.

Yeah it was tastier than canned tomatoes. And it also took me half a day to make. In the end I just dumped the pasta into the pan with tomatoes. Canned tomatoes are like 3x faster, because they take no preparation time beyond opening the can.

The variety of tomatoes matters little, the heat treatment will average the taste, so it’s okay to use the cheapest tomatoes for this, as long as they didn’t start to rot.

Edit after reading others’ replies: maybe the tomatoes in my country are just better, even the cheapest variety is tasty enough eaten raw, and the only time I could find tomatoes that are picked green and are ripening on the shelf is during winter, when all fresh vegetables are hydroponics, and even then you have some choice.

The recipe:

1. Get fresh tomatoes. Wash tomatoes. Cut tomatoes in 2 or 4 pieces each, you’ll mash them anyway so thin slices do not matter. Fill the biggest bowl in your kitchen with sliced tomatoes. I was using like 2 kg of tomatoes, they wouldn’t fit into the pan until simmering down.

2. Fry diced onions and carrots in a pan, using a generous finger-thick layer of olive oil, until the onions are golden and carrots are sweet.

3. Dump tomatoes into the pan. Cover with a lid, cook on a slow fire for about 15-20 minutes. Mash and stir each 3 minutes so they won’t burn. Cooking less will preserve taste of fresh tomatoes, cookig longer will make it taste closer to canned pasta sauce. But cooking for less than 5 minutes will keep tomatoes stay in big chunks, so you won’t be able to make your sauce stick to the pasta.

4. Boil pasta while tomatoes are cooking.

5. Dump Italian spice mix onto the pan. Turn off the heat, let it simmer for 1 minute.

6. Dump pasta into the pan, stir, slurp your tomato-pasta soup from the pan like an animal, contemplate your life choices when you have trouble standing after eating 3 kg of food.

I had the root canal done without an anesthesia, because I did not want a needle sticking into my gum.

It was tolerable, I did not cry or anything like. The nerve was mostly dead anyway.

The dentist took his sweet time removing the nerve piece by piece with a probe, instead of just drilling the whole tooth through. It did not matter at the end anyway, because he filled the canal afterwards. And the molar has three roots, so he repeated that two more times.

I guess it depends on your pain tolerance.

Here’s a Super Mario first level theme, 10 hours mix. You are welcome.

Inside the building it’s the first floor, even if it’s exactly at the sea level altitude. Outside the building it’s the ground. Basement levels start at minus one, there is no zeroth floor.

Nab a crate loading robot from an Amazon warehouse, it can lift more and will have much less pricey maintenance.

If the walkway goes inside the building, then yes. And the walkway usually leads directly to the second floor, because the airplane door is 3 metres above the ground.

In the UK it’s called a ground table.

Extend C++ for safety

I stopped reading after this. Why do you think C++ is unsafe in the first place? Someone decided ro extend it, and now you cannot even read an error message without finishing an university course on lambda calculus first.

Back in the 80386 days there was one model of BIOS that would print ‘CPU not found’ if you had your CRT monitor and VGA videocard plugged in.
