My commits have my real name, because I do serious work, and no I won’t be doxxing myself on this account.

I call out brigading

What kind of lazy gaslighting is this? You were part of the brigade. You have literally been participating in the kind of behaviour that Linus has correctly called out as unhelpful.

Please continue to think you’re on the right side of this discussion when the guy you went out to bat for has stepped down as a maintainer and deleted his socials over this.

I will show you mine if you show me yours.

Not that number of commits has anything to do with calling out brigading which you still seem to be committed to.

Oh I expect absolute crickets from all the people who waded into this trashing Hellwig.

Opposition to it is reactionary, not well-grounded in technical merits; most of Linux is not well-proven to be correct, only believed to be correct under typical operating conditions as estimated by several dozen experienced programmers

Try expanding that to ‘overwhelmingly correct as assessed by hundreds of thousands of programmers on tens of millions of systems globally under diverse conditions at a low end ballpark.’

Martin is not a maintainer of the Kernel/DMA which is why Hellwig clearly states he doesn’t want to add another maintainer when rejecting Martin’s offer to be a maintainer of this proposed code.

This is very clear if you read the email. If you don’t like the formatting go read the full email chain yourself, you will know where to find it if you’re so familiar with ‘kernel social dynamics’.

So you think Hellwig doesn’t understand what is and isn’t intended to go into the kernel/dma that dma maintainers would then be responsible for?

You don’t seem to be familiar with either the full conversation the developers had (its all available) or you don’t understand how the Linux project is structured and maintained.

From the email chain:

Since there hasn’t been a reply so far, I assume that we’re good with maintaining the DMA Rust abstractions separately.

No, I’m not. This was an explicit:

Nacked-by: Christoph Hellwig

And I also do not want another maintainer. If you want to make Linux impossible to maintain due to a cross-language codebase do that in your driver so that you have to do it instead of spreading this cancer to core subsystems. (where this cancer explicitly is a cross-languagecodebase and not rust itself, just to escape the flameware brigade).

Hellwig has some excellent points and people are up in arms solely because he’s not giving the green light for the shiny new toy.

Keep the wrappers in your code instead of making life painful for others

This is a perfectly valid approach, anyone claiming he’s resistant for no reason has never tried maintaining a multi language code base.

If you want to use something that’s not C, be that assembly or Rust, you write to C interfaces and deal with the impedance mismatch yourself as far as I’m concerned.

Again an entirely reasonable approach. There is precedence for this approach in the kernel/dma and I see no reason to change this now, unless a full kernel/dma rewrite to Rust were to occur.

You don’t need to pose that question because you aren’t getting a 50,000mbps connection, as you’re not in China.

Like I said, people doing self hosting, they often open up ports for those services and management ports.

Some routers have backdoors built in, such as the Fortinet NGFW backdoor, that can also be exploited.

I work in this industry and believe me the risk is real, no vpns aren’t a silver bullet, but there are a few good providers out there that can help mitigate some risks of using P2P for more than piracy.

That depends on whether they are port blocking as I said.

If there was a vulnerability it would be exploited in the matter of a few minutes.

Around 10 minutes for an unpatched XP box with no firewall.

Much longer for obscure vulnerabilities in routers or more difficult to exploit vulns in hosted software.

It is also possible for vulnerabilities in peertube itself to exist, which will be an issue regardless of VPN use.

I could scan your network for vulnerabilities.

I could anyway but knowing a target used a service like peertube increases the odds of unpatched hardware or self hosted services in my experience.

If you’re using an older router you probably have a problem due to unpatched vulnerabilities.

If you self host you might have a problem, as many package maintainers and developers lag a bit behind security patches.

A good VPN provider will also block unusual ports.

Between your immediate downvotes and the tone of your message your response is unnecessarily long and rude

Firstly you could read user names before going off, I was simply asking a question that Im unwilling to buy the game to answer.

I haven’t played or watched Balataro but from the description on steam

You’re going to need every edge you can get in order to reach the boss blind, beat the final ante and secure victory.

Unless ante here is referring to something else it seems it does have them?

Like most fandom types gamers who make gaming their whole identity are prone to over reaction.

You just need to look at the insanity of the pro-shipping vs anti-shipping fandom ‘wars’ for another example lol

My response was all in good fun ;)

As a gamer, fuck you, funkos are for freaks who watch tv and have a Live. Laugh. Love. Doormat.

Ahh yes comments so deserving of being deleted or edited by hyper sensitive authoritarians such as

What do you not like about it?

my different opinion on how disagreements should be done

Let me guess, all people should disagree the still unspecified way that you alone are aware of, so anything and everything remains free for you to censor because you made a post?

You’re going to have a bad time on the internet snowflake.

I’m gonna open an issue so Lemmy lets OPs edit and delete comments on their posts. The amount of argument on here is too bad for a standard centralized moderation model.

LMAO you’re waaay too thin skinned to be given that sort of power. There is just some polite discussion of Factorio’s graphics going on.

You should probably just leave Lemmy if you’re that hyper sensitive to any form of disagreement.
