37 nope. In other news, all windows are now done (I think/hope) however, I'm waiting for it to stop raining before I take a screenshot

35. What kind of hockey? Normal hockey? Ice hockey? Air hockey?

Ah, so Ice Hockey. What I call “normal hockey” might be more accurately called “Field Hockey”; it’s played on a grass surface, with a ball instead of a puck, the sticks are shaped somewhat differently, and no-one wears armour (except possibly shinpads).
so... I just learned the danger of multi-threading together with image manipulation.
My PC started to need the swap space despite it having 16 GB of RAM.....
Lets... rework that a bit.....Granted, the image is 8333 by 8333 but still......Thats... bit....

24 for some reason I just love this piece of code https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/27/2
The setup_force_cpu_bug(X86_BUG_CPU_INSECURE); enables a work around to patch a security bug on intel CPU's.
Apparently this "fix" will however result in 5% to 30% performance loss. So, naturally an AMD dev came in and put the check in place to only enable it on intel cpu's.
Its getting weird in Linux, because that would most likely mean that a lot of AMD CPU's will beat those from Intel even without looking at Ryzen.
Additionally, AMD is now also preferred over Nvidea on Linux because of drivers.
Both of those things are generally not true on other OS'es if I remember right. Though, the CPU thing needs to be fixed on every OS so Intel CPU's probably take a performance hit on every platform.
Code:
- /* Assume for now that ALL x86 CPUs are insecure */
- setup_force_cpu_bug(X86_BUG_CPU_INSECURE);
+ if (c->x86_vendor != X86_VENDOR_AMD)
+ setup_force_cpu_bug(X86_BUG_CPU_INSECURE);Apparently this "fix" will however result in 5% to 30% performance loss. So, naturally an AMD dev came in and put the check in place to only enable it on intel cpu's.

20. Having had friends afflicted with insomnia, you have my sympathies 
Whether this is a blessing or a curse depends on whether I want to stay awake or not, but: I've never had any difficulty falling asleep. It became something of a point of humour among my friends, in fact, that I could basically doze off anywhere. Which is useful when you need to catch 40 winks. Less useful when you don't want to lose your entire evening because you fell asleep putting your kids to bed...
