Last Notes npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub1xr8…3q0g I've got my eye on the #shingles vaccine, because I know three people who've had the disease recently and it's been hateful. I'm not quite old enough to get the jab on the NHS, but I'll be taking it as soon as I can. npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub1xr8…3q0g npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub189n…satx Eighteen months from now, the Tories will be gone. We just need to hold on till then. npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub19lt…qfjk npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub1kpw…xzz4 npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub1l3g…vu48 @npub10c6…x2jy Right. 😄 What happens in practice, when I do it, is that the reads outpace the writes until Linux has a certain amount of dirty data in its writeh back cache (configurable via /proc). At that point, all disk I/O other than writes will pause (and the system can become almost unresponsive) until the amount of dirty data falls to another, lower, configurable level. Once that's happened, the reads start again. npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub1dqe…ehzp It's spreading. 😯 npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub1cgj…cdlr Forgive me if you know this already, but you can follow hashtags. If you follow hashtags like the ones you've used here — and TransJoy is another uplifting one — then you'll find more trans people quickly enough. npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL I bought Mrs Wife a #Fairphone4 this weekend after she broke her Pixel for the third time. We both agreed she needed something more repairable. npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub1nlc…rv60 Just for the benefit of anyone who's never reported another person: npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub1kja…e5gq So #Zuck is being open about his strategy: lock people in using network effects and then enshittify #MetaThreads using adverts. Well, people can't say they haven't been warned. npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub1e2d…c6dt The wonderful @npub1uxz…5ma4 has provided a gift link to this story: npub1sr6s68jtz4hvk6stgnnvue0sq8m8qn8edhy3dtlmm2lgsx5unlzs8zc03z MarkusL @npub1ex3…c58j @npub1hpc…hjn3 I've wondered for a while why we have families called Monk. Aren't monks supposed to be celibate?
