Finally won my fight with user mode linux from a while back. I got a reply to my query to the mailing list saying to check for NPTL support. Well, turns out one of the things in gentoo that I set up was a USE flag of “nptl”, which built it into libc. Edit /etc/make.conf, […]

Why is it that on weekends I spend more time cleaning than I do any other time? Aren’t weekends for having fun and not being at home? This being a grown-up thing sucks! I want the time when weekend cleaning meant that mom got me to clean a bathroom before I escaped out to play
