Hopefully …

I rarely play games on my computers, coding is the bulk of what I do, the rest is data analysis, email and research.

I think that what you’re looking for is “CPU affinity”, but that is not something I know anything about.

In the 40+ years I’ve been playing with computers, I’ve always let the OS worry about where and when to run a process and only rarely do I renice a process that needs to run, but not at the expense of everything else.

Those poor people at de Beers, next you’ll tell me that they’ve been keeping the price of diamonds artificially high for over a century … oh wait.

It’s called doubling down and it’s not just happening in Germany.

The COALition in Australia has just compared the First Nations People who have lived in Australia for over 65,000 years with Aliens.

It’s not the first time they’ve shown their #racist colours either.

The “leader” of the COALition has refused to stand in front of a First Nations flag:

So has the “leader” of the COALition in Western Australia:

A Docker container is a security framework. The process running “inside” the container is just a Linux process like any other.

So, as I understand it, the performance will be identical to a process that is running “outside” a container, subject to the overhead associated with any security restrictions.

There is a Paradox of Tolerance that essentially says that if you are tolerant of the intolerant, all tolerance will eventually be overrun.

This is what’s currently happening in the USA.

I don’t think that banning them is going to fix anything, but sanctions for not controlling the platform and prosecuting and punishing perpetrators is going to make an impact felt way beyond simply banning a platform.

Being in a civil society requires effort. So far the effort in curtailing the extremism embodied by USA social media has been incidental at best.

Only if it’s a capitalist government? So you’re okay with censorship by fascist, socialist, communist and totalitarian governments?

bash?

It’s not very complicated. I’ve been generating my podcast RSS file with it for years.

Yes dad 😇

(It’s a joke, laugh.)

Make it a game and have fun.

How can you mow it all without crossing any spot twice?

How can you make a pretty pattern?

What’s the shortest path?

What’s the longest path?

Can you finish before the motor stops?

How quickly can you clean the blades?

What changes if you sharpen the blades?

Etc

Red and don’t come back.

Our politicians eat onions and bowl over small children.

… just a sudden influx of people moving continents … nothing to see here …

Ethernet over Power, not to be confused with Power over Ethernet, which are NOT the same thing.

… that they know of or admitted to.

Write one, format it as an EPUB, upload it to the Amazon Kindle store, give it a name and report back…

To answer your post title question, I suspect that at this point it seems counterintuitive to introduce complexity in an environment already rife with exploits.

It’s not like it’s a new idea either. Microsoft published research on this in 2009, 16 years ago.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/publication/the-multikernel-a-new-os-architecture-for-scalable-multicore-systems/

The abstract on that link holds the promise of many benefits, but it appears to carefully avoid specific claims, which makes me wonder if the idea ran into unexpected hurdles, which is common in software development.

The abandonment of the Barrelfish project is probably an indicator that this is an idea that didn’t pan out.

Having said that, I haven’t dug into kernel development over the past 40 years of my career, so it might well be that aspects and nuances of this idea were adopted and are in common use.

I confess that it is always odd to see a musician, now deceased for a decade, when searching for this platform. Mind you, that is an ongoing tribute to their legacy, which is how it came about.

In a 2020 post, Lemmy’s co-creator Dessalines wrote about the origin of the name Lemmy. “It was nameless for a long time, but I wanted to keep with the fediverse tradition of naming projects after animals. I was playing that old-school game Lemmings, and Lemmy (from Motorhead) had passed away that week, and we held a few polls for names, and I went with that.”

The fundamental cause of the corporate behaviour is that by law their first priority is to make profit for the shareholders.

Fix that and things will change.
