This sounds exactly like Linux giving the old OOM killer. Reproduce the problem, then look at the output of sudo dmesg. If it shows something like "OOM killed process", then yes, that's the problem.

Do the following:

  1. Consider giving less memory to the VM
  2. Ensure you have at least a little swap space configured on Linux
  3. Consider getting more memory
  4. Exit other programs on Linux, especially web browsers

I'm writing about the film The Devil's Bath (Des Teufels Bad) specifically in order to recommend it. I found the production of it to be an absolute mastercraft.

First of all, this movie is not a horror. Yes, it's terrifying. It has psychological horror. There are sequences of gore, violence, even body horror. But it's not "a horror". I would best describe it a psychological period drama.

There's this trope in cinema of "show, don't tell". The Devil's Bath does exactly that. It leaves nothing unexplained. Everything you see, from the protagonist's motivations, to the mindset of other characters, is explained without mystery. And it's done with a finesse I rarely see in film.

What's more is that the sound production and music are absolutely impeccable. The already high emotional impact in watching this movie is elevated so much due to the music.

This film is not action packed. It's slow and methodical. It's almost boring; but nevertheless, you cannot stop watching.

The Devil's Bath is expertly crafted. And I will absolutely not watch it again.

There's something I call a "pill stick", into which you put it in the barrel, jam it into the cats mouth while holding their jaw and then push the trigger. Requires a little finesse but easier than other methods.

It's making reference to logistic curves and how rabbit populations, which can grow exponentially, will oscillate between a low and high population size.

In short, it explains why some years there are a shit ton of rabbits, and other years, very few.

That's not how tax deductions work.

Gates is a dirtbag though.

It's North Carolina, according to YouGov.

Now you don't need to click on a Newsweek link and feel dirty.

I don't think FelixCress is arguing in good faith, but to answer their question, yes.

The film Farha was shown in the Israeli town Jaffa, to much debate.

Just a reminder that this happened.

Why is Newsweek continuously posted here? It is not a legitimate news source, it is a tabloid.

Man, this is looking really appealing:

  • Headphone jack!
  • Great global and US network support
  • "Honest" marketing of its cameras (lol!)
  • Huge :(

Now the only thing that's missing is if it's reasonably easily rootable, so I'll keep an eye on this phone.

What's the status of rooting the Zenfone 10?

Last I saw it was some abomination where you need to wait a month and need Asus's windows tool?
