    I fail to understand.
    Healthy as in “Healthy to eat” ? Because I don’t see it being in working condition when it is out of the place it is made to work in and the blood vessels looking like they have been drained.

    I am unable to understand the meaning of “healthy” over here.

    Or is there some context in which a dead body is called a “healthy” dead body and that context is being used here?

    What if I had a firewall installed in Linux

    A previous company of mine, required an “AntiVirus” installed on the Linux computers too.
    The one the IT guy installed, ran in the background all the time, doing nobody-knows-what and and slowing down every thing and having multiple segfaults in a minute, shown in the journal.

    Long after I left, I also saw an RCE vulnerability related to it. So essentially, my system would have been more secure without the app.




  • Reading this thread, I kinda feel weird.

    When I was a child, I use to take tablets for headache (no idea which ones. I was a child.) and almost every time, the headache came back more intense than before, when the effect wore off.

    Later, I started understanding that headaches (and other pains) happen for a reason and it is better to find out the reason and fix it, than just turn off the alarm.

    So now, even if I get hurt due to something, I say no to pain relievers. This has even saved me from re-injuring a previous injury a few times.

    • Sprained ankle / back pain : exercise and yoga.
    • Cramps from exercise: next time do proper stretching after exercise.
    • menstruation: I have no idea. never had that. sorry. But I can say for sure, people around me don’t tend to resort to taking pills all the time. Even those that have it hard.
    • broke a ligament: definitely don’t take a pill, or you won’t realise if you are about to break it again.

    Over here, pain management pills seems more like a last resort and not to be used for something that happens regularly. So, reading about it being treated like cereal, feels pretty weird.








  • Doesn’t even startup on my box,

    It needs to startup and then go to that point (after you select the projection) to cause the crash.
    It definitely caused something other than the application to get into an invalid state. Which is why I am apprehensive about trying it out again to answer your comment. Probably was the display driver, which is why it didn’t just turn off after that.







  • There’s this game “HyperRougue”. Run it on Arch.

    hyperrogue-git version 13.0d.r60.g27fb2d92-1

    Go to settings -> 3D configuration -> projection -> projection type -> . Cycle through the projection types. One of them causes something good enough to call a crash.

    I don’t remember anymore if it was just a display driver crash or a kernel crash and I haven’t updated to a newer version (which might have fixed it).


  • What language were you using?
    Python maybe? I don’t know of any other interpreted language, that you may be calling system commands from, without saving to disk

    I use C and C++ and my IDEs save to disk before compiling. Makes sense to not try compiling when there are potentially 2 versions (one on RAM or /tmp and one on Disk) and the build system might be running multiple commands, which the IDE may/may not know of, in my case.
