Your kernel must be patched with ntsync patches. If your system does not have /dev/ntsync then your kernel does not have the patches required to use ntsync.

It might also be compiled as a module, but not loaded by default.

sudo modprobe ntsync can be used to test this.

It's at least partly eugenics, which is a common undercurrent in the anti-vaccine movement. Remove healthcare altogether and only the "strongest" will survive.

Bring on socialised dental. The horror when our entire population has healthy teeth!

I'm not sure if this is anything new, but maybe it's getting worse. Most of my friends when I was younger wouldn't do anything more than the "stand still and sway" method of dancing because they didn't want to look silly.

One of the reasons people do use roads is that they are often flatter and in better condition, and you're not competing for space with children and dogs. But better that than cars with all the risks that come with them (collisions and noise/air pollution).

However, the health benefits of regular exercise tend to outweigh the risk of air pollution (although perhaps not in severely polluted cities like in parts of India). So it's probably still worth if that's the most convenient place to exercise, if you can minimise the safety risk at least.

Obesity is also a causal factor for developing cancer (and bowel cancer specifically which is one the diseases increasing in incidence).

Intel provides solid Linux support, I’d say it’s probably on par with AMD.

I'd say in the long run yes, but they tend to be slower at adding features compared to AMD (which tends to be where all of the experimental stuff happens first). Or rather that AMD cards are often the first target for Mesa developers, which includes the likes of Valve.

Property Council SA is mentioned later in the article. And in this case, they are right, as this is another subsidy for people with gigantic vehicles that must be borne by all of the people that have smaller cars (or no cars at all).

I'm almost at the point where all of my connections are IPv6, but still hampered by my mobile provider (ironically, since IPv6 was generally adopted earlier on mobile in many countries).

I go even further and set the proportion to 100%, since ZSTD compresses so well (and the % is based on uncompressed usage).

There are theoretically some cases where zram can be harmful, but in general I find it works reliably.

This article on the repo is also an interesting read:
