This story found on Hacker News is about one example of the kernel's sneaky tendency to give too much work to the first CPU core. Latency is one problem. My problem is when trying to cool fireball CPUs I find the first core habitually running close to 10 °C hotter than the last. Physical layout on die might also be a factor but IDK.https://www.jabperf.com/my-fear-of-commitment-to-the-1st-cpu-core/

The officially correct expression is 10 K, which is either a significant difference in temperature or a really hard freeze.

People, it's an infosec EXCHANGE. Got one leave one, need one take one, don't be a hoarder.

Maybe it's a mistake to give medical credentials to people who don't believe in medicine. Maybe it's a mistake to give authority over elections to people who don't believe in free and fair elections. Maybe it's a mistake to give law enforcement authority to people who don't believe in rule of law. And so on.

@RevXenoFact @LinuxAndYarn @wendynather OMG remember that time they had a tanker full of liquid gender that they didn't know what to do with, so they just opened the taps and drove down the road with gender fluid draining out the whole way

@wendynather @RevXenoFact @LinuxAndYarn I hear the gender is much more potent now than it used to be, and there are hyper-potent synthetic genders being smuggled in from factories in China.

@RevXenoFact changing my default search engine to the no-AI version of Duck Duck Go delivered an unexpected bounty of slack. The AI summaries had been draining my slack all that time and I didn't even realize it.

@RevXenoFact is it possible for slack to be unfixably out of alignment, like steering on a car that has been wrecked? I'm a wreck.
