A tumbleweed rolls in the distance...

*stares at the intern's 400 line bash script*

There are totally more flexible options. Just don't mind the front falling off. It's totally normal!

Look at the line with the asm_exc_invalid_op. That seems like a hardware fault caused by an invalid asm instruction to me. Either something wrong is being interpreted as an opcode (unlikely) or maybe the driver was compiled with extensions not available on the current machine.

OP, how old is your CPU? And how old is the nic you are using?

Edit: ~~did you use a custom driver for the NIC? I'm looking at the Linux src and rt_mutex_schedule does not exist.~~ Nevermind. Was checking 4.18 instead of 6.7. found it now. The bug is most likely inside a macro called preempt_disable(). Unfortunately most of the functions are pretty heavily inlined and architecture dependent so you won't get much out of it. But it is likely any changes you made in terms of premption might also be causing the bug.

There's the clearurl addon that removes known trackers. But you gotta copy it from the URL bar first.

Hush! Don't point it out! Lure him into a corner and steal his time machine!

I would argue that this is something that should be taught in every undergraduate Operating Systems course. But if someone posting it here benefits teens, self-taught hobbyists, and old-timers getting back into the field so be it.

My T480 is my favorite laptop. But this is NOT one of its use cases.

Because anyone who works at the assembly level tends to think that the x86_64 ISA is garbage.

To be fair, aarch64 is also garbage. But it's less smelly garbage.

That being said, I'm not expecting any of these CPUs to be hanging in the Sistine Chapel. So whatever works, I guess.

As a counterargument: spend your money. 200 dollars means a lot more to a teenager than a college student (with an on-campus part time job), then when you find yourself at your first full time job you may sometimes be spending 200 dollars like pocket change.

As a result, you will most likely cherish what you buy now for 200 USD way more than what you can buy down the line. That console you need to save up 6 months for right now? It becomes a lot less sentimental when you can afford it every other month. So spend your money on something that you'd like right now. 200 dollars won't change your life in college much, but it can change your life significantly right now.
