Why am I getting the vibe that was a bad idea on Russia’s part? They’re about to get wiped off the map.

It’s hard to have a sense of community in a sub-industry of IT that tends to be run by single individuals.

What’s wrong with WordPress?

How does one live with only a single shift key on the left side of the keyboard?

I have 4 old hard drives that I pulled from an old Drobo that needs to be trashed. I bought a Mediasonic 4-bay RAID enclosure that I thought would be a good upgrade, but knew going into that the drives may not work because the manual for the new enclosure specifically says to use new drives to avoid problems. The exact product is this Mediasonic one.

While this would work isn’t it a bit time consuming compared to:

wipefs --all /dev/sdX

Bloodletting? What is this, old timey medicine? “Looks like ya got ghosts in your blood, better do cocaine about it”

Yeah well America decided it was time for the B-team to take the wheel so this is the kinda shit we have to look forward to… Again…

As an American with the postal service that’s a government agency this is just blowing my mind. Y’all just let a private dude buy your mail service?

It’s an old school log aggragating service that used to be how most *nix distros collected logs in years past. As I understand it was generally replaced by systemd’s journald service. The only times I encounter it in the wild is on legacy systems that couldn’t or refused to adapt and chances are they’re paying a lot cuz it’ll be a painful support experience. Oh and for some it can be a useful way to sync logs up to monitoring services like Splunk but it’s effectiveness is debatable.

That is getting pretty annoying. These cases should get reassigned to courts in different states after they reach a certain level of ruling.

And when exactly did we declare openvpn a legacy protocol?

Trolls gonna troll

I am still confused who this is and why they felt the need to resign?

We need a new aid package that includes a metric crap load of our surplus military diesel generators for the population. Adding in some battery and solar storage solutions wouldn’t hurt either.

True, these sound like the tech execs say when attempting to create the illusion of value, not actually useful innovation.

My hack was to get older and have a couple of kids that wear you out, fall asleep on the couch around 9:30 and get up daily around 5:30am without an alarm because your body says you slept enough.

All jokes aside, start sticking to a consistent sleep schedule and your body will wake itself up, no phones or alarms required.

I do not want this on my device at all. What are my options for my next phone that will replace my aging pixel 6 that won’t include Gemini?

I still haven’t heard a convincing argument to not use .local and I see no reason to stop.

The orb is nothing, the orb is all things.
