It's sad that the "#Rust on #Linux" discussion on the invitation only #kernel maintainers summit I'm honored to participate in today is held in private, as having it in the open would send a strong signal:

The #LinuxKernel core maintainers really want Rust for Linux to succeed.

[Edit, to clarify: and many of them are willing to spend time and effort to make this happen.]

Just joined fosstodon and wanted to share an #introduction. I'm a programmer and enjoy programming in #C/C++. I also like #gardening, singing (especially #publicdomain music), #writing (including #fanfic ) and #baking. I'm a #FLOSS advocate and am always searching for useful, portable, lightweight #libre #software. Am happy to share recommendations on favorite #programs and #libraries.

Another useful #writing tool I almost forget to mention is wc. You'll find it on #Linux and #BSD distros. On Windows, #msys and #cygwin offer a version. There are several implementations of wc out there including versions in Busybox and Toybox. If you want to build it yourself or modify it, sbase has a straight forward version:

Remove uric acid from joints and get rid of gout!

❗️ As you know, cucumber juice is very effective in lowering body temperature, and it also has a high alkalizing ability and effectively removes uric acid and its crystals from the joints.

❗️ This mixture is excellent for removing toxins, while celery and especially ginger reduce inflammation.

❗️ We will need: juice 1 medium-sized cucumber, 2 celery pods, half a lemon, and a 2.5 cm young ginger root.
Preparation: First of all, peel the ingredients. Cut the cucumber and celery into small pieces. Cut the lemon in half, take one part and squeeze it into the blender bowl, and put the other part in the refrigerator. Chop the ginger root. Blend all the ingredients and drink the mixture once or twice a day until you feel the results.
