Happy Ramadan to all Arabs! https://x.com/ElBaradei/status/1895974668861128847

This morning, Israel closed all crossings with the Gaza Strip and prevented the entry of food, supplies and aid. On the other hand, some merchants raised the prices of food commodities, and some of them hid the goods to monopolize their prices later.

These traitors are no different from Israel, which is killing and starving us.

While CPU frequency scaling and thermal throttling scripts certainly exist, this particular approach is uniquely elegant: - It generalizes across any number of frequencies without hardcoding values - Uses a single temperature target (75°C) to create proportional bands - Relies on the sysfs interface in a minimal, dependency-light way (just File::Slurp and POSIX)

It’s a neat example of "just enough code" to solve the problem effectively. Maybe it’s a hidden gem worth sharing with the @Raspberry_Pi community - I bet others could benefit from its adaptability!

!/usr/bin/perl

use File::Slurp; use POSIX;

use strict; use warnings;

File::Slurp::write_file('/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor', 'schedutil'); my $available_frequencies = File::Slurp::read_file('/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies', { chomp => 1 }); $available_frequencies = [ split(/\s+/, $available_frequencies) ]; while (1) { my $temp = File::Slurp::read_file('/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp', { chomp => 1, err_mode => 'quiet' }); my $freq = $available_frequencies->[0]; for (my $i = 0; $i < scalar(@{$available_frequencies}); $i++) { $freq = $available_frequencies->[$i] if $temp < (75 - $i) * 1000; } print sprintf("%s %s temp=%.1f°C max_freq=%iMHz\n", $0, POSIX::strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S', gmtime), $temp/1000, $freq/1000); File::Slurp::write_file('/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq', $freq); sleep 6; }

A lesson that becomes clearer every day as events develop, and I must repeat it tirelessly:

Our strength, Arabs, lies in our unity and nothing else.

And we must be able to defend ourselves alone.

It’s like systemd’s a cocktail of every spider-drug web rolled into one glorious mess. Picture this: the devs started with a caffeine binge, frantically spinning a chaotic tangle of services. Then they hit the marijuana, half-assing the “parallel boot” promise with a sluggish, sprawling dropout. A dash of LSD kicked in for the “modern” buzzword overload. And maybe some Benzedrine to top it off, pumping out oversized, sloppy features like systemd-networkd that nobody asked for.

It’s the only explanation that tracks - different drugs, different days, all mashed into a single Franken-system.

The world was more outraged about the fake story about 40 beheaded Israeli babies than about 700 Palestinian babies murdered by Israel. https://x.com/R34lB0rg/status/1893440507327431044/photo/1

Today is my birthday. I want to celebrate by publishing my cosmology paper on arXiv. I need an Endorsement for http://astro-ph.CO. #Followerpower #Science

A police officer stops Heisenberg and asks, 'Do you know where you are and how fast you’ve been going?' Heisenberg replies, 'I can either tell you where I am or how fast I’ve been going, but not both at the same time!

A cop stops a physicist speeding. He asks, "Do you know how fast you’ve been going?" The physicist answers, "Well, officer, our galaxy is moving with a velocity of about 600 km/s relative to the Local Group, our solar system is moving with a velocity of roughly 828 km/s around the galaxy, the Earth is moving with a velocity of 30 km/s around the Sun, and we are moving around the Earth with a velocity of about 465 m/s.
