Remember before systemd the most popular init system was upstart,

For 5 years; maybe. Before, during, and since, sysV is still the most popular.

And, as dictionaries, politics and Windows will tell you, what is popular is not always best.

Anxiety isn’t cured with mere knowledge. It’s one of those survival things that needs more basic response.

How do you fuck a world in a literal sense?

Systemd: hate it for what it is and how it’s built, and continue hating it for its capitulation to intrusive surveillance.

You can’t tell whether it’s an Ai datacenter or one that merely holds and protects your health data and DMV records. Or a mix.

The criteria needs to not be the PURPOSE of a DC, since that’s impossible to gauge before or after the build, but the build of the DC.

• no water cooling
• ya pay for your power
• no fucking jet engines outside
• noise bylaws strictly enforced

You know, like everyone else.

One of my contracts is with a gov adjacent org. I know they’ve got your personal info - the stuff like your DMV recs - kept very safely in a datacenter somewhere. It’s safe, reliable, and has great data connections.

Tear these down and … what? Back to paper in an office somewhere with no backup?

It’s an attention thing; like that kid in home-room, back in school.

My oura g2 is getting really sour batteries now.

But since Oura is fucking dead to me with that subscription shit, I’m going with an UH next. Because while the oura5 looks like a beautiful product, I really wish karmic reckoning on the company.

What about putting up one of those curtains of plastic slats like they have in the walk-in coolers of restaurants ? That could help keep the heat in the cab portion while they’re opening the door.

Yes, force the behaviour of closing the door while they’re away from the truck, for energy savings and for security, and reinforce that with some training and reminders, but the added barrier could keep the coolness in the driver area just a bit better.

ITT:

• leeberoffice reminds us it came from starOffice, and corrects the “first European office” statement.
• people slag leeberOffice for being imperfect about its existence.

Atomic images are awesome if your SLSA score is just too high.

whether ACAB is best understood as a critique of an institution or as a judgment of every individual within that group.

English comprehension answers this for you so you don’t have to worry. The words “all” and “cops” tell you whether the movement targets every police officer or the institution itself. Note the use of the countable noun.

Someone who’s still using POP instead of IMAP4 probably hasn’t updated their setup in 20 years.

You’ll understand one day that pop3s has its uses for certain situations.

Cinnamon here too. It seems small and fast.

All of them? Where do you think hospitals store their healthcare data?

We’re gonna be embargoing America for a LONG time after the Commander in Cheese is gone. We’d need to be sure we’re not going to be rounded up and sent to the camps.

I’d say Indian in Manchester, but after so long, Manchester is kinda known for its Indian food so it may no longer be a “not from there” thing!

What’s a ‘gallon’ in normal volume measurements?

Army barracks. ;-)

what do you do?

No degree: ran out of cash and spent a decade settling the loans.

I learned a little Linux in college, and I found it’s done me well, since. Better and better jobs, and now I’m in a unionized I.T role with a pension. I’ll be 90 before I can collect, but the people are nice. I’m also working a side gig, one where I could be fired on the spot but there’s always 3 months of I.T work in the hopper … and has been for 24 years. So that’s nice.
