10 Interesting Stories Behind Famous TV Catchphrases
Catchphrases are common in many TV shows—from Joey asking “How you doin’?” in Friends to McGarrett’s “Book ’em, Danno” in Hawaii Five-O. Some catchphrases have even become so popular that they’ve outlasted the show they originally came from. Being such cultural juggernauts, you might think these catchphrases were expertly crafted for maximum impact. But they’re […]

[$] The state of guest_memfd
A typical cloud-computing host will share some of its memory with each
guest that it runs. The host retains its access to that memory, though,
meaning that it can readily dig through that memory in search of data that
the guest would prefer to keep private. The guest_memfd subsystem removes (most of) the
host’s access to guest memory, making the guest’s data more secure. In the
memory-management track of the 2025 Linux Storage, Filesystem,

Alistair Popple started his session at the 2025 Linux Storage, Filesystem,

Ugly or not, the ability to manage memory that is attached to a peripheral
device rather than a CPU is increasingly important on current hardware.
Popple hoped to cover some of the challenges with ZONE_DEVICE and
find ways to make the stepchild a bit more attractive, if not bring it into

[$] Supporting untorn buffered writes
At last year’s

accompanied by patches to support the feature in the block layer, and for
direct I/O on XFS. That
work was merged, but another piece of that discussion concerned adding the
feature for buffered I/O, in part because the PostgreSQL database currently

@arne@uplegger.eu I’m very glad I only rarely have to deal with .docx & Co. And when I have to, 99% is in read mode only. Even though, I don’t think that Markdown is the best choice, I use it on a daily basis. Some things, like links, in reStructuredText are better in my opinion.
Jira just resists to switch to Markdown and forces us to use its silly markup language.
For real typesetting, LaTeX is the way to go. But I very, very rarely do that.
@thecanine@twtxt.net My apologies, mate! :-( As @david@collantes.us pointed out, this was definitely not my intent at all.
For the easter egg hunt, I first looked for a hidden image map link on the pixel dog in the right lower corner itself. Maybe one giant pixel just links to somewhere else, I figured. But I couldn’t find any and then quickly moved on. Hence, I naturally viewed the HTML source. Because where else would be a good hiding place for easter eggs, right?
Next, I noticed the <font> tags. I thought I had read quite some time ago that they are not an HTML5 thing, but wasn’t entirely sure about it. So, I asked the W3C HTML validator. Sure enough. I thought I let you know about the violations. If somebody had found a mistake on my site, I’d love to hear about it, so I could fix it. I’m sorry that my chosen form of report didn’t resonate with you all that well. I reckoned you’ll also find it a bit funny, but I was clearly very wrong on that.
I actually followed the dog cow link to the video, so I ended up on the easter egg. However, I didn’t recognize it as such. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Oh well.
Regarding my message about the browser quirks: I read your answer that you were arguing against the HTML validator findings. Of course, everybody can do with their sites whatever they likes.

[$] Better hugetlb page-table walking
The kernel must often step through the page tables of one or more processes
