okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 🫢 and honestly? this page is short but it's important, so pay attention for like two seconds πŸ’…


πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

set_safe_settings β€” literally what it says on the tin: if the use_safe_settings option is set, then it sets all the values to the safe and slow values. that's it. that's the whole job. no cap πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • void β€” no arguments, babe. nothing goes in. zero. zilch. it takes no parameters whatsoever πŸ™ˆ

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay this is the part where it gets iconic because the list is LONG and every single one of these is a real one, so here we go, no skipping, periodt πŸ‘‘

like, truly a whole friend group πŸ’€ go read them all, they're right there


ngl bestie, the whole point here is safety-over-speed: safe and slow, every time the option says so. don't come at it expecting fast. it's giving "responsible older sibling" energy 🧚
