• What Is PID 0?

  I don't like that, it's not good practice. One should give links to original sources, i.e. https://kernel.org as far as Linux is concerned. Even if git guarantees that the content is the same (if someone bothers to verify that the SHA-1 is the same and we exclude the possibility of a SHA-1 collision in git, which is yet to be demonstrated). kernel.org existed before github. - Source: Hacker News / 29 days ago

• Thinking about building a operating system

  - Modern Operating Systems, 5th Edition by Andrew Tanenbaum (of MINIX fame) and Herbert Bos (https://www.pearson.com/en-us/subject-catalog/p/modern-operating-systems/P200000003295/9780137618880) is the latest edition of a solid graduate-level textbook on operating system concepts. It may also be beneficial studying the source code of existing operating systems. I recommend starting with smaller, simpler... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• problem with connman

  Those other flashy distros like mint and ubuntus are designed with rich people with very fresh machines in mind, they don't care if you have an AMDx4 or core2duo or even 32bit older machine. Even Mint and ubuntu people will tell you, if you have an old machine with little ram, use antiX. It still works very well with machines not even released yet, buy one in May 2024 and I "guaranty you" antiX will run fine. ... Source: 7 months ago

• Is there a way to naively replicate a VarHandle.getOpque with fences?

  The memory_order_relaxed explanation on the kernel.org documentation heavily implies (never explicitly) that the direct memory load is implicit in the barrier(so by preventing it's reordering we are also forcing a LOAD from main), and that THIS specific barrier (relaxed) is what we NEED for these type of scenarios, so I am not entirely sure if a loadLoadFence() would prevent the hoisting... Maybe it will prevent... Source: 9 months ago

• Have some confusion around the Ubuntu Kernel

  Are all versions of the kernel from kernel.org called mainline kernels or only 6.6-rc4 as shown in the picture? Source: 9 months ago

• List of ngrok/Cloudflare Tunnel alternatives and other tunneling software and services. Focus on self-hosting.

  Packetriot - Comprehensive alternative to ngrok. HTTP Inspector, Let's Encrypt integration, doesn't require root and Linux repos for apt, yum and dnf. Enterprise licenses and self-hosted option. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• Tunnelmole, an ngrok alternative (open source)

  I built a similar service as well called Packetriot: https://packetriot.com Building these types of tunneling systems are great projects. You learn a lot and can master skills in many different areas. Packetriot has been operating for five years and the first few years was all spent on performance and stability of the core networking services. As the software and network matured, I spent more time on the... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• glad to see IRC is still alive and kicking... but downloading files via xdcc pops up the prompt to accept the file, which automatically sends the file, but it is unable to connect to the irc user (connection timed out) (my firewall is off)

  Some forums suggest this as an alternative. Looks like there's a free tier to play with. This may be much simpler than running your own VPS (although learning how to do this gives you a hell of a lot of power in terms of doing other things you might want to do). Source: 7 months ago

• Open port on KVD21 for Disk Station?

  I use https://packetriot.com/ to set up tunnels to the ports I want to be opened. Pretty cheap and doesn't require a full-fledged VPN. You do however need to have a client program running. Source: over 1 year ago

• How can I regain access my network behind a non-configurable modem/router combo?

  The only way to do it is to create a tunnel from your network to a 3rd party and access your network from there. One service I came across is located at https://packetriot.com. Source: almost 2 years ago
