I think there’s a mistake, I can’t fit “neovim” into 8 across.
Since FF 6 and 7 have already been mentioned, I’m going to give a honorable mention to Shining Force.
User-serviceable switches would be so nice…

The patients or their families don’t even get the gift card, that goes to the hospital.
They do have a bpf sensor. It’s still shite, managing to periodically peg a CPU core on an idle system. They just lifted and shifted their legacy code into the bpf sensor, they don’t actually make good use of eBPF capabilities.
If the sensor was using eBPF (as any modern sensor on Linux should) then the faulty update would have made the sensor crash, but the system would still be stable. But CrowdStrike has a long history of using stupid forms of integration, so I wouldn’t put it past them to also load a kernel module that fucks things up unless it’s blacklisted in the bootloader. Fortunately that kind of recovery is, if not routine, at least well documented and standardized.
The London Underground is actually kind of a dumb use-case because it’s fixed infrastructure.
On the other hand it’s a perfect test bed, because there’s sufficient changes of direction and speed, and the fixed infrastructure lets you measure drift. Plus it being underground helps simulate GPS signal being weak or unavailable.
When I was younger and more naïve, I used to think a case was useless. I kept my phones in my pocket most of the time, and didn’t feel particularly clumsy or reckless. Then I got a phone that happened to have a glass back, and it broke not because I fumbled it, but because it slid out of my pocket onto time floor while I was sitting down. Glass backs on phones are bullshit.
I’m out of the loop. How does Carmen Sandiego fit into the whole init system debacle?
You can, but you’ll need to increase the microwave’s power accordingly.

As in you are seeing multiple boot entries? It’s likely one entry per kernel version that you have installed. It doesn’t happen often these days any more, but in some situations it’s handy to be able to revert to a previous kernel if for example third party modules break.
It has implications on the effectiveness of VPNs on public networks.
Not sure about erasing all of it, but it is (or was) certainly possible to delete enough of it to brick a motherboard https://www.phoronix.com/news/UEFI-rm-root-directory
Hey, Consul was pretty big for a while. But yeah, Terraform and Vault take the top two spots.
I don’t know where you got the idea that I’m arguing that old versions don’t get new vulnerabilities. I’m saying that just because a CVE exists it does not necessarily make a system immediately vulnerable, because many CVEs rely on theoretical scenarios or specific attack vectors that are not exploitable in a hardened system or that have limited impact.
GM had at one point been working on an eCrate block for conversions, but they seem to have abandoned it.
The article’s author mentioned that the problem is not limited to Samsung TVs - someone reported the issue on their phone.
The article does not mention a root cause, but I have a theory that it’s likely a malformed subtitle track. I tend to watch with subtitles on so I run into related issues every once in a while. Most of the time it’s one of two things:
The latter can have multiple effects depending on what format the subs are in, but most of the time it’s a missing end time, meaning that the subtitle stays on. However, some formats also have cues as to who the speaker is, and that comes with a start and end tag like in HTML. I suspect that in this case the end tag is either missing or misaligned in the syntax tree, causing this one line of dialogue to be displayed over and over when the player reaches other lines matching the cue for it, but that don’t get shown because the user has turned subtitles off.
As to why this is bleeding into other shows: I suspect it’s an issue with how the software clients are caching the subtitle files. This would also explain why going back into the episode that caused this fixes things, because it would reset the cached file. Which in turn brings me back to pointing the finger at Amazon, not Samsung, because Samsung would just be loading Amazon’s software client to play the video and subtitles.
