I work in hosting. We mostly use Proxmox for our Hypervisors which is already a step up from “bare” KVM in regards to convenience/ease of use (especially for High availability scenarios and the like) We also run VMWare and while I don’t love the “locked down you gotta do it the VMWare way” nature it’s often so much easier and the HA is mich more convenient. Also it has proper functionality for custom resourcing/access/billing.

That’s a certain kind of skill I wouldn’t want the need to have. I just copy paste those timestamps into a terminal with date -d @ (and always forget the right syntax for that :D)

Just cuddle.up and enjoy the sights

Funny I had to Google ci" to remember what it does even though I use that sometimes.

I’ve committed to learning vim years ago and in most situations im faster in vim than in nano etc. (especially because of muscle memory) I still feel like I’m not properly using vim to it’s full extend (like whenever I remember using registers it feels like magick and I’m sure there’s more like that)

Oops guess I didn’t read far enough ;)

An article about tweaking sudo without insults?

Pigs are pigs no matter where you are.

In Germany they regularly kill POC in “self defense” like when they shot a 16 year old kid, that was holding a knife, with an AR.

Some cops are also fascists or support other fascist actors. Like when an attorney for the victims of the fascist terror group “NSU” got threat via fax signed “NSU 2.0” her Fax number was pulled from the data in Frankfurts 1sr precinct where a bunch of Cops were working that were also in a WhatsApp group sharing Nazi memes.

And the people investigating all of this? The police of course. Like when two police precincts were investigating each other both for killing a person “in self defense”.

Tl;dr: ACAB world wide

What? How broken are we all that you first thought is “Nice then I can work two jobs” The only way this really works if they pay living wages for 3 day work weeks. And I know they aren’t even paying those now for 5-6 days but this is a point we have to insist on and make them do it. Workers have managed to enforce a 8 hour work day a long time ago. We need to remember our strength and fight for better conditions.

I remember the first time I saw ads on YouTube, I had just set up a new computer and wanted to test everything. So I opened Firefox and loaded a YouTube video. I got a preroll and wondered “wait ad’s, on YouTube?” Then I realized I had been using AdBlock for so long I never witnessed the transition from ad free YouTube to YouTube with ads.

These days I use unlock origin, Sponsorblock and revanced. For now it still works but maybe I’ll leave YouTube soon :/

Oof I envy you. I’ve seen my first video 1-2 years ago (the rice cooker one) and ever since I’ve watched all of his Videos (some three times) I’d love to get to experience all of them anew.

Yeah they’re using the hell out of dark patterns and then switch them up mid process i.e. clicking the big green “Ok” Button will first be the one that gets you to pay more later you need to hit “Ok” to proceed without additional fees.

I recently went through the process with a friend. Both of us reasonably tech savvy and under 35 and we almost went mad. So it’s not just old folks.

No do is not the “none superuser” version of sudo.

As the comment above stated it’s part of loops. But since loop syntax are built in to bash they are actually seperate built-in commands. Because it’s an available builtin autocompletion offers it to you.

The do command here is just a special command that expects a certain set of parameters and a done at the end this is why you get an error trying to run do alone because it’s not adhering to the syntax properly.

I appreciate nano as a choice. Sure. But if visudo opens in nano and suddenly I have a bunch of “yoi:wq” in my sudoers I’ll be upset.

It’s a stopgap but Teams for Linux at least gives you Wayland support, choice of seperate window sharing and background filters

I’ve been using signal since forever. Recently when there was a big exodus from Whatsapp because of their changed data policies was the first time I felt an impact with response time in the app etc. I immediately set up a regular donation. A few months later they came out with there cryptocurrency scheme I decided I won’t be funding any cryptocurrency so I cancelled my donations. I trust signal on the technical side implicitly. But they have lost my trust in the business side :/

Seriously. I’m just wating for a 3,5" form factor SSD where most of the chassis is cooling and inside it’s just a 2230m.2

I had heard about it before and gave it a quick Google earlier. But didn’t know the meme so I guess that joke went over my head :)

What? Linux.

As stated above. I know that there are actual logs produced (I honestly would not have known where to look for them by heart but that’s my shortcoming) my comment was meant to be sarcastic sorry for dropping that /s
