great for identifying drone sounds.

What is amazing about my spinal-meningitis-induced-by-high-body-temperature partial hearing loss is tinnitus is more there.

Decades later, after taking one pill of Zyban (to help quit smoking, Wellburtin-class), I lost the rest of my hearing in less than 30 minutes … permanently, but tinnitus went like mind-deafening.

7 years later, I opted for cochlear implants: and what do you know, tinnitus is barely there, almost gone.

not sure how to explain this, but it is largely gone, this tinnitus. I suspected that natural background noise is keeping this feedback loops (tinnitus) from mainfesting in my auditorial part of the brain.

Hearing largely restored in terms of jumpy crescendo yet fuller-spectrum, but dang, I hear farther than ever did before, like in Jamie Sommers of Bionic Woman.

I still operate in a high-stress environment of frontline cybersecurity, yet am more calmer and more responsive.

Highly recommended, unless you value your musical skill over tinnitus.

I do enjoy dual-PK-certificate authentication in my homelab: one by equipment, and one by user/group.

Only misgiving is that the key management issues have worsen only for the key administrator(s). But it is a viable and sustainable AA model because there is the most important security component: instant denial of a user and/or a equupment.

No thanks. Just, no.

And Ingo probably had the greatest heads up over the rest of us by having his new kernel perform the fastest iterative kernel rebuilds, probably using all permutation of kernel option settings for rebuildings.

How can We respond if We are allbusy building his branch before we can meaningfully respond in kind.

I’ve embarked down this same path with GCC 2.7.4 from a … while … back.

Ingo is on the right track.

I’ve always thought that this stuff should have been dealt with by the GCC (in form of pre-cached header files).

So sad that it is a thorny issue to this day (for large scale projects); so glad that this issue is now alive so it can be dealt with once and for all.

I envision some type of *.ho filetype to hold these quasi-compiled headers for the next build iteration.

I’ve always thought that the Roman dodecahedrons were like a badge of government finance ministry activity and were carried exclusively by tax collectors traveling far from Rome.
