Linux Plumbers Conference

The Linux Plumbers Conference (LPC) is a developer conference for the open source community. The LPC brings together the top developers working on the plumbing of Linux - kernel subsystems, core libraries, windowing systems, etc. - and gives them three days to work together on core design problems. The conference is divided into several working sessions focusing on different plumbing topics, as well as a general paper track.

@VileLasagna @karolherbst I guess I just don't attract those kinds of people. 🙂
@tokyo_0 @foufoutos but he's ahead of schedule.
@mike Perhaps his role will not involve so much work as much as just kinda looking good + AI.

Apparently, Ahnold is bulking up to play Conan the Cimmerian in a sequel. 78 years old. Impressive but also.. why?

Arnold Schwarzenegger, 78, undergoing brutal gym prep for 'Conan the Barbarian' sequel

At 78, legendary actor Arnold Schwarzenegger certainly isn’t slowing down — instead heading back to the gym to reclaim his role in the “Conan the Barbarian” sequel.

@karolherbst @VileLasagna It's been a never ending set of chaos. Now you have AI and LLMs that seem to be adding more bad things eg surveillance, job security, and driving the prices of water and electricity. Rising prices, changing climate - it's no wonder they are all on edge. No doubt some anger towards boomer and GenXers.
@VileLasagna @karolherbst Really? Interesting. I guess I was never exposed to that.
@VileLasagna @karolherbst we should not discount that some of this is because the last ten years has been excessively shitty especially if you're under the age 21. The pandemic has taken a toll on the mental health of many.
@danirabbit @karolherbst everything is one step away on the road to fascism and totalitarianism. People's reactions to digital health this past release was enlightening.

Holy crap - I did not know about this attack vector.

I would like to see mitigation steps for this kind of thing.
