Is it weird that I cannot remember which number month September is without thinking of 9/11? That’s my nemonic device. A terroist event. Because Sept- prefix is 7 but comes after Oct- which is 8. Makes no sense. Fuck Ceaser for starting this Julian calendar mess. Ceaser probably had a hand in 9/11.

It works fine if you stick to the golden path. Have a single AP, don’t have a WiFi 7 AP with MLO, don’t get your security key wrong to cause an auth issue at any point, and have a largely stable link. You could go a long time without hitting of the races or state change issues.

I had to go deeper. Once this stopped the kernel from panicing we ran into a new set of issues with deadlocking in the same driver. Maintaining a set of patches here until upstream takes them or fixes all these bugs in a different way. github.com/zbowling/mt7...

Not sure I solved the underlying issues, but at least it stopped panicking. People complain about this wifi chip a lot, or at least the driver. Also probably not super common for people to use wifi on this.

Making sure you're not a bot!

My new Framework Desktop kept kernel panicking. Submitted my first patch upstream to Linux in a decade to fix an issue with the wifi driver module.

I would pay $3000 for a USB-4/thunderbolt dual machine combo KVM / docking station where I could assign specific USB ports to either switch /w KVM or sticky to one machine. Must drive 2 monitors at 4k 60fps. I think I can pull this off almost with 2 docking stations + kvm but it’s 3 devices

If you don’t understand the tldr is her music video in a Brooklyn church upsetting the Catholic Church leading to an investigation that eventually lead the indictement of Mayor Adams helped a door to a run for Zohran

I realize I watch football not because I’m rooting for any one team to win but for specific teams to lose. Cowboys, Patriots, Chiefs, etc. The rest I’m indifferent.

It’s funny to me that Arizona’s football is called the Cardinals because Arizon seems like the last state birds would be living, except maybe some turkey vultures to eat everything that dies there.

Proud to be blocked by washed up reality D list star Spencer Pratt after SB79 passed and after I called out all his lies on it enough in my TikToks that I got under his skin.

I’m going to make my 404 page controller on my personal site call Claude and synthesize a new page on demand using my existing static content retreviable via a tool call. No one spam my site with 404 calls.

Hakeem Jeffries might be whipping some votes in congress around the shutdown but he is a serious disappointment when it comes to standing up for the right side in New York.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social bro. That was an awful statement about Adams. Why are you glazing and considering corrupt politicians when the Dem Party has already picked a candidate? Fucking endorsee him already. This is looking horrible for you and the party.

Jimmy Kimmel’s back and he met the momentβ€”calling on Americans to continue to stand up for free speech.

β€œThis show is not important. What is important is that we get to live in a country that allows us to have a show like this.”

He also chokes up as he resets what he meant about Charlie Kirk.
