Hurrah for non-sucky kernels

I have 20 autoconf / compiler processes running, my music plays without a jitter, and my UI is as responsive as when it has the whole CPU to itself — I never realised how apparent the new linux scheduler was until I saw that it was giving a single interactive process more time than all the batch processes combined~

Compare windows, where a single cpu / memory hogging program can render the whole computer unusable…

ED: Locking comments, since there are a couple of spams per day and no useful comments…

School is over /o/

As of half an hour ago, I’m no longer a secondary school student \o/

I write from school, while waiting for one of the IT admins to discuss coming back over the summer holidays to do some programming work D:

Oh dear lord…

Sites like this make me regret my free hotlinking policy… The furryism I can forgive*, the stupidity I can stand*, but the web design is so eye-blisteringly ugly I’m ashamed to be associated with it x_x

* so long as they keep it to themselves…
