This incite in to what my ubuntu system is doing that would have taken hours of time to research if I ever could have learned it at all had I not used an LLM. I'll continue to caveat that LLMs have many many things about them that are bad on multiple levels.
Using LLMs to fix system problems is doing something I wouldn't be able to do otherwise.

Summary of the whole investigation:
- The "crash" was a systemd-oomd/earlyoom OOM cascade, not a kernel panic or hardware fault — the shutdown itself was clean.
- Root driver: Firefox (running unrestarted for 5+ days) ballooned to ~17 GB RAM; likely contributors are the long session plus extensions that run continuous scripts on video pages (AutoTwitchPoints, enhanced-h264ify) — worth watching if it recurs.
- Fixed: removed the redundant earlyoom daemon, and added an early soft memory cap so th…

My wife and me both have commitments during the day. So we just did a 2h cycling to our beautiful reservoir and back. It went really well and it felt good to be on the bike.
Especially as it's not so hot any more.
Enjoy your weekend!

The surrounding mountains are covered in dense forests of evergreen trees, their dark green foliage adding depth and texture to the scen…

RE: todon.eu/@CrimethInc/117243404
The monarchs of the Russian Empire were well aware, more than 200 years ago, that freedom anywhere was a threat to empire everywhere. That's why a collection of European autocrats formed The Holy Alliance in 1815.
But the corollary is also true: empire anywhere is a threat to freedom everywhere. Sure, we can learn rules from each other, because these autocrats all play the same game. They've been playing roughly the same game for hundreds of years. But it's more than we can just share notes. We are in the same war.
The fall of any dictator threatens the legitimacy of all other dictators. While authoritarian countries may be at war, it's little more than a game of chess for them. They want to win, not to kill the other player. More than even needing an opponent to keep the game going, dictators prop each other up.
Autocrats have been internationalist for hundreds of years, and that's part of how they've kept coming back. After the fall of Russia, the torch of autocracy passed to the US who really picked it up after the end of WWII. They toppled countries around the world for daring to fall outside of one imperial sphere or another. And, eventually, they got the chance to do the same to Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union. American intervention helped put Putin in power, and he very much repaid the debt with Trump.
Dictatorship is an infection that spreads until it is contained and destroyed. There is one war, the class war, and we should learn from and support all our comrades fighting the same fight everywhere.

God, what a fucking asshole.
Anyways, I've already spent some time removing #neovim from about half of my build/development containers. For now I'm going back to #vim, but once vim-classic or #evi

A github comment by justinmk, posted 1h ago:

"You all have embarrassed and shamed yourselves.

Most of you aren't Neovim users, but a drive-by mob, swirling from one mindless vomit-party to another, like the pacific garbage patch."

Elon Musk’s SpaceX is many different things to many different people
— but one thing that it definitely isn’t is a get-rich-quick scheme.
Since its debut on the public tickers back in early June,
SpaceX shares have sunk from a high of over $225 to a dismal $110 today, as compounding failures and overvaluation fears take their toll.
Overall, SpaceX is down nearly 30 percent compared to its opening stock price of $150
— and all those day-one rubes are now seeing re…

Thank you for signing on to push back against SLAPP (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation) lawsuits that seek to silence dissent and critique of those in power.
This fight for us is personal. We are still at the center of one of the longest and most expensive media trials in Canadian history.
Lawsuits like this are designed to slow down the important work non-profit newsrooms like ours do by tying up our funds in lengthy lawsuits.
We won’…

Prime Minister Mark #Carney has said a fresh wave of US tariffs on Canada is a "miscalculation" designed to "hurt and divide us", after trade talks collapsed late on Friday.
"They asked too much and they offered too little," Carney told Canadians on Saturday morning, adding the country was now in a trade "war" after being hit with punishing new US dut…

We published a big story this week, that hasn't been covered in-depth anywhere else in mainstream media.
Canadian Border Services, or the CBSA raided a peaceful protest in Calgary last week, where international students were protesting being left without status.
Immigration rules were changed in the middle of the students' education, impacting their eligibility for post-graduation work permits upon completion.
