Dendrobatus AzureusJeff Geerling got the brunt of YouTube wrath when he showed people how to host their own media {media that they legally own, which means that they either have the originals, or have paid for whatever digital version they have} with the power of Open Source tools Jeff explicitly made sure that he never ever told people how to circumvent subscriptions or worse. Nothing that could harm YouTube bottomline was ever discussed in this video. Yet for reasons obvious to Open Source people like me YouTube gave him his second strike.3rd Strike and you're gone. This is how Google / this is how Alphabet is treating their Golden Geeze.Creators like Jeff are very valuable both to the people who follow them and to YouTube.

Felix Palmen :freebsd: :c64:Solved! 🥳 This was a pretty "interesting" bug. Remember when I invented a way to implement <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/async" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#async</a> / <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/await" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#await</a> in <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/C" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#C</a>, for jobs running on a threadpool. Back then I said it only works when completion of the task resumes execution on the *same* pool thread.Trying to improve overall performance, I found the complex logic to identify the thread job to put on a pool thread a real deal-breaker. Just having one single MPMC queue with a single semaphore for all pool threads to wait on is a lot more efficient. But then, a job continued after an awaited task will resume on a "random" thread.It theoretically works by making sure to restore the CORRECT context (the original one of the pool thread) every time after executing a job, whether partially (up to the next await) or completely.Only it didn't, at least here on <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a>, and I finally understood the reason for this was that I was using <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/TLS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TLS</a> (thread-local storage) to find the context to restore.Well, most architectures store a pointer to the current thread metadata in a register. <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/POSIX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#POSIX</a> user <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/context" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#context</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/switching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#switching</a> saves and restores registers. I found a source claiming that the <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a> (<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/glibc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#glibc</a>) implementation explicitly does NOT include the register holding a thread pointer. Obviously, <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a>'s implementation DOES include it. POSIX doesn't have to say anything about that.In short, avoiding TLS accesses when running with a custom context solved the crash. 🤯

I just went to another Window / Desktop manager combination. I was playing with fvwm Enlightenment Black Box FluxBox & others before KDE & Gnome.I compiled fvwm from sources way back in the beginning, when Linux had no x Windows at all, when we literally had to build everything from sources even use a disc editor to put magic bytes on the boot sector first on the floppy and then later on on the MBR of the ATA hard drive IMHO Enlightenment still rocks even today!Regardless of the reasons of the programmers of Gnome to go that route of in_configurability decades ago, they have many many people like that desktop environment.Ironic but both the rigid in_configurability of Gnome and the configurability to the pixel of KDE is needed for the planet.For similar reasons many Legacy Window Managers not only still exist, but are actively maintained, so that they can compile in current POSIX operating systemsI, for example can't understand why people need to use Apple Hardware, which is inferior, in an Apple 🍎 ecosystem which dominates every move you make, but obviously millions of people in the States who need it exist, otherwise they wouldn't buy a phone that's produced for $10 for $2,000 right?<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Gnome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Gnome</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/KDE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#KDE</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/DesktopManager" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DesktopManager</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Environment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Environment</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/WindowManager" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WindowManager</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/WM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WM</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/GTK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GTK</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/UI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UI</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/POSIX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#POSIX</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/GNU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GNU</a>
