Apparently he was reading a prayer related to the mission to extract the downed F15 pilots… No idea how any of this makes sense.
Hegseth mentioned he was told the prayer is titled “CSAR 2517,” which stands for “Combat Search And Rescue” and alludes to the fact that it borrows some wording from Ezekiel 25:17
“The path of the downed aviator is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men,” Hegseth prayed.
"Blessed is he who, in the name of camaraderie and duty, shepherd the lost through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children.
“And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to capture and destroy my brother. And you will know my call sign is Sandy 1 when I lay my vengeance upon thee, and amen.”
It’s already bad enough that they have sermons in government buildings, but then it’s with this kind of content?
Actually the alps are pretty good at slowing down trains. Here in Switzerland the top speed is around 200 km/h (or 125 mph).
But yeah, the freedom is real. I’m going to Prague soon. Will probably watch a movie, read some manga, and then get a full nights sleep on the way, to arrive refreshed.
work united on 1 distro and 1 distro only to make it better for everyone
Can’t wrap your head around multiple specialized distros existing, or what’s the issue?
I think kids are always excited by new stuff, and if it’s big or complex stuff the excitement generally increases accordingly. Buses, trams, excavators, trains, planes, firetrucks, road rollers, cranes. And then as they get used to them the excitement either subsides, or it just keeps getting more and more specific.
So for a European kid who at some point starts traveling by train regularly, it either subsides quicker, or it has more of a chance to get specific, because they start noticing the differences between the trains they use, and possibly the tracks if they use multiple kinds. This eventually results in lots of train nerds among grown ups.
By the way, now I’m wondering, is the hobby of building and maintaining and running model trains on model tracks in a fixed installation at home common in the USA? I know at least three people who do that here in Switzerland, it’s not like sports or something, but for the large effort it still seems relatively common to me.
One colleague at work has all the train models ever used by Rhätische Bahn in his collection now. That’s a regional train company that only serves mountainous regions by way of narrow (1m) tracks in one corner of Switzerland, but it’s still a big collection.
Thanks for that link, that’s so cool. I know of otaku in general, but densha otaku are new to me.
By the way the perfect kiss, that’s referenced in the first paragraph there, looks like this:

Also cool, this follow-up:
I went through the last two pages of posts (ordered by “active”), and you’re right. There were maybe four good ones, and two noteworthy for extreme cringe, the rest was all boring or stupid.
She answered that in her blog post that the Phoronix article links to:
Which GPUs does this work with? Is it only AMD GPUs?
Whether or not your GPU can benefit from it depends on the kernel driver - more specifically, whether it sets up the dmem cgroup controller.
amdgpu and xe both have support for the dmem cgroup controller already. In theory, Intel GPUs running the xe kernel driver should benefit as well, although I’m not sure anyone tested this yet.
For nouveau, I have sent a patch for dmem cgroup support to the mailing lists. This patch is also included in my development branch, so if you use my AUR package it should work. In other cases, you will need to wait for the patch to be picked up by your distribution, or apply it yourself.
The proprietary NVIDIA kernel modules do not support dmem cgroups yet, so this won’t work there.

What do you mean way back, aren’t you F/15/Cali?
Unless you know that sapo- means relating to soap. As in sapone / savon / săpun / σάπων / сапун / صَابُون / صابون
I suggest reading the first paragraph, it addresses your point.
I believe the error was in the AV1 license NOT having a “if you enforce patent-license-fees on this codec, THEN you can’t use this codec” type of coercion…
I thought those provisions were usually enforced among the members of a patent pool, to ensure that any licensing customer can trust in the pools word to not be shaken down a second time by an individual pool member later.
So since AM1 isn’t forming a patent pool to sell licenses, and Dolby isn’t part of the Alliance for Open Media, it wouldn’t really apply either way, no?
Oh wait, actually there is something like this, see point 1.3 here: https://aomedia.org/license/patent-license/
webm can contain VP8, VP9 or AV1 video streams. I guess if you mean webm with VP9 inside it could be one solution, though less efficient. Also Google donated VP9 and what they had for VP10 to the development efforts of of AV1, so if AV1 is found to be infringing it’s a negative signal for VP9 too…
Edit: Sorry I was a bit off-topic. I was thinking of the action that Dolby is currently taking against Snapchat for their AV1 use.
The other answer you got hits it on the head already.
Here’s an additional piece of info you might like: The webm container format is actually a specific subset of Matroska. The big players in the web recognised that it was a very useful open container format and adopted it for the web. They took a subset to make implementation in browsers easier and more uniform.
Peter Magyar was even in Victor Orban’s Party “Fidesz”, and formerly the husband of Orban’s Justice Minister Judit Varga. Then two years ago there was a schism over a pardon of someone who covered up child abuse.
His new party “Tisza” is conservative, centre-right, but also pro-European and anti-corruption. I hope it wasn’t a mask that drops soon, but I don’t know enough about their politics, to say much.
