The journalists who spent time and energy learning Banksy’s identity, then published the details, suck.

They could have minded their business and let us continue to enjoy the fun of not knowing.

Those journalists are conscience free, romance free.

They suck.

@lproven @theregister I feel I can wrap my head around one (zram or zswap), until I read about the other. After that I'm stuck jumping between the two trying to figure out the differences. In any case, zram is awesome and I love checking which processes got their memory swapped out then never asked for it back (Electron apps...)

@lproven @distrowatch There was no one left who wanted to maintain YaST, AFAIK.

The word “login” comes from throwing a log attached to a rope with knots overboard a ship to see how many knots go by over time (see also, knots as speed). You’d then put that info in the “log book.” You’d “log in” on a regular basis. This wasn’t from 1959, it was likely from 1689! Etymology baby!
