nvidia debian old macbook

welp, my 2010 macbook air Debian Bookworm kp-ing at suspend sometimes on nouveau_do_suspend due to TTM buffer allocation/eviction issues, turned out I had zramswap and little swap, though, so added more swapfiles (smaller than the partition so that the partition takes priority for hibernation memory image)

Update: helped the chances of this happening only slightly

I have now published my crude Bash history expansion cheatsheets. Next I hope to do the Readline counterparts.

(July/August)

im slowly realizing how OpenBSD has way worse performance, "on modern CPUs reordering libraries takes just a second", and now it doesn't have usermounts no matter what i do.

Next thing I will probably learn that I can get somehow a partition UUID as non-root on NetBSD as opposed to on OpenBSD.


In NetBSD installer disk Utilities > "Partition a disk", the "Edit partitions" is the only component wary of destructive actions.

Selecting "Encrypt (CGD)" on a whole device, or "Delete partition", commits the change immediately to the disk upon selection.

Also attempting Encrypt on a *partition* that was a result of Encrypt on a full device, results in Segmentation fault.

Welp, I didn't need that Windows 7 Professional install anyway I guess


uhh a BCM4313, I think I'm giving up on FreeBSD there, especially with how my ports.tar.xz was corrupted to an empty net/ subdirectory…

    [happy times] (old post) and fetching fax machine

    a warm day, […] and we thus took a train to the […].

    it has been a long day of lots of walking and lots of actively going through the museum with an excellent talkative companionship with adjacent technical expertises

    many little unexpected details to the day, once off the train also going to a coffee shop […] talking lots amidst, and ending the day just us two enjoying some food in front of the mall as the sun set.

    and i looked great. a hat and a classy look with some real good fits of mine incl. a long soft skirt, and a Nokia 300 themed original cross-body bag.

    then i went to fetch from the parcel locker where a fax machine i bought awaited me. i don't have a landline, tis' for fun

    as i listened to Paramore - Riot on earbuds (rare that i do) and then right then took to take care of this website at last somewhat
