Re: Reminder: November WLUG Meeting at the Hudson Public Library! Topic: Intel Management Engine.

by Joshua Stone

Hey Forrest, Great to hear from you! It's nice to see a fellow resident! More on the parking situation, the town does list numerous public parking spots in downtown that visitors can use, most within a few minutes of walking: https://www.discoverhudson.org/plan-your-visit/ - *Library:* 3 Washington St, <https://www.google.com/maps/place/3+Washington+St,+Hudson,+MA+01749> Hudson <https://www.google.com/maps/place/3+Washington+St,+Hudson,+MA+01749> - *South Street Parking Lot:* 25 South St, Hudson <https://www.google.com/maps/dir/25+South+St,+Hudson,+MA+01749/Hudson+Public…> - *Avidia Lot after 6PM:* 78 Main St, Hudson <https://www.google.com/maps/dir/78+Main+St,+Hudson,+MA+01749/Hudson+Public+…> - *Cellucci Parking:* 23 Houghton St, Hudson <https://www.google.com/maps/dir/23+Houghton+St,+Hudson,+MA+01749/Hudson+Pub…> - *RailRoad Ave. and Church Street Parking:* Nearby 29 Church St, Hudson <https://www.google.com/maps/dir/29+Church+St,+Hudson,+MA+01749/Hudson+Publi…> - *2 Hour Parking Lot:* 8 South St, Hudson <https://www.google.com/maps/dir/8+South+St,+Hudson,+MA+01749/Hudson+Public+…> There are also plenty of side streets that people will use for off-street parking. Admittedly Hudson's parking situation isn't the most convenient for visitors who aren't used to the area, and this is backed up with a parking study: https://www.townofhudson.org/sites/g/files/vyhlif3281/f/pages/parking_repor… *There are 1,400 parking spaces, but many spaces are hard to find. * > − There is a perception of lack of parking > − Many lots do not have clear or visible signage that indicates whether or > not one can > park there > − There are more than a dozen different types of regulations > − Half of off-street parking is "restricted access", meaning that the lots > are not available > to the general public > − There are some lots that are publicly owned and available to the general > public, yet > most of the stakeholders and workshop participants we spoke with did not > know they > existed > − Some parking areas are difficult to find from the roadway and/or > challenging to > access, so they end up being underutilized > − Overall signage is confusing to customers > The study is fairly old and the parking situation may have improved since then, but I think the point is clear that there's a demand for improved parking. I hope the town will do more to make parking easier to find instead of adding more parking spaces. We definitely have plenty of parking, it's just that visitors may have to plan ahead as it's not designed like a shopping plaza with massive parking lots in front of storefronts. I also hope the town will do more to invest in transit so car traffic and parking demand are reduced. As it stands right now, our regional transit authority has a fairly limited schedule and its coverage isn't great either: https://www.mwrta.com/routes/fixed-routes/route-15 It is for example technically possible to travel from Hudson to Boston via bus and train, but it will take an excruciatingly long time, requires multiple transfers, and may even be at times be unsafe due to poor pedestrian infrastructure along the route: https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Peter's+Grove,+11+Lake+St,+Hudson,+MA+01749/Back+Bay,+145+Dartmouth+St,+Boston,+MA+02116 This is why my wife and I compromise by driving to the train station first when going on day trips into the city. We hope to further reduce our car dependency by having more robust public transit in the central Mass area. There's something to be said by having the freedom to travel to places without needing to take several tons of privately-owned metal with you. - Josh On Fri, Nov 19, 2021 at 8:06 AM Forrest S via WLUG <wlug(a)lists.wlug.org> wrote: > Hey Tim, > > Names Forrest I introduced myself a while back on the forum I live in > Hudson and know the area pretty well so I will be there for my first > in-person meeting and so for everyone who does not know there is a parking > lot in the back behind the fire station it is right next to the library > _______________________________________________ > WLUG mailing list -- wlug(a)lists.wlug.org > To unsubscribe send an email to wlug-leave(a)lists.wlug.org > Create Account: https://wlug.mailman3.com/accounts/signup/ > Change Settings: > https://wlug.mailman3.com/postorius/lists/wlug.lists.wlug.org/ > Web Forum/Archive: > https://wlug.mailman3.com/hyperkitty/list/wlug@lists.wlug.org/message/EYMTC… >

Re: [Wlug] I guess this is goodbye to WLUG

by E Johnson

I hope not. Even if I rarely attend meetings, I appreciate everyone and everything that happens in WLUG. Recently soimeone I know by correspondence, apparently a nuclear physicist, has had problems with his aging Mac, and contacted me for help since he knows I build my own computers. He' wants to build his own, and install a Linux OS. He is in the US but not local. I recommended some parts for a new build for him, but also recommended that he find a LUG near him and contact them, etc. Is there a directory of LUGs that he can consult? Are the LUGs in contact with each other? If not, that should have been happening right along. I have one issue of my own going on in a prog I have here that I need help with --just a stupid glitch in a text file that should be easy to find, but the text file is HUGE, yet I don't know how to write the correct commands in order to find the probable bad characters in this file and correct them. It would probably be easy for someone, but... I should write this up and send it in case someone can easily solve this. I hope our LUG and the others are not planning to expire anytime soon.

Possibly, it depends on how bad the second disk is. What I would do is try to use dd_rescue to copy the 2nd bad disk onto a new disk (possibly your original bad disk if you feel brave!) and then try to re-assemble your raid 5 using that. You might or might not have corruption in the filesystem, so make sure you run an fsck on it. Now, in the future, you should run a weekly check of the array for bad blocks or other problems, so that you get notified if a disk dies silently. I use the following crontab entry: # # cron.d/mdadm -- schedules periodic redundancy checks of MD devices # # Copyright © martin f. krafft <madduck(a)madduck.net> # distributed under the terms of the Artistic Licence 2.0 # # By default, run at 00:57 on every Sunday, but do nothing unless the day of # the month is less than or equal to 7.

This is my Eric> first time using software raid so I'm in a bit over my head. The first thing is to ask for help on the linux-raid mailing list, which is hosted on vger.kernel.org. But somethings you can do to help is to give us more information. Like: cat /proc/mdstat mdadm -E /dev/sd... or /dev/hd... depending on whether your SATA or IDE drives. Basically, use the devices you got from the /proc/mdstat output as your basis. Give us this output, and we should be able to help you more. John

>More obscure. It has to do with how memory accesses to bytes are >handled on the Alpha architecture. They're not very quick, because >the Alpha wants to do all memory access in 32bit chunks. "Quick" is in the eye of the beholder. Yes, the Alpha tended to access data in 32 bit "chunks" to get it into the registers. Being a RISC processor it was not as rich in data access on a byte level. On the other hand other CISC processors also accessed data on a 32-bit level, just that their instruction sets used microcode to make it look like they were only accessing a byte. The trade off was in executing multiple RISC instructions to one microcoded CISC instruction. Would this bother a kernel developer writing a couple of lines of assembly language down at the very lowest level of the kernel....probably. On the other hand for years Linus talked about the Alpha as the best architecture chip he knew, so it could not have been too bad. md On Thu, Feb 4, 2021 at 5:29 PM John Stoffel <john(a)stoffel.org> wrote: > >>>>> "Keith" == Keith Wright <kwright(a)keithdiane.us> writes: > > Keith> John Stoffel via WLUG <wlug(a)lists.wlug.org> writes: > >> I recall, it's mostly the memory ordering around byte accesses that > >> are the problem. > > Keith> Are you saying that the Big Endian vs Little Endian flame war > Keith> actually had consequences in the Real World? > > It did, and still does.
