If you believe my therapist friend who is also non-normative in a relevant fashion, demands for pronouns are often ‘othering’ in result, and thus go from farce to force.

So, I write fewer email.

Jira, which is available as on-prem version.

Check again.

Either way, I’d consider moving off Jira.

2025’s version of Gone Goat Farming ?

Ha! My deepest experience with postgres was watching it fall over and wedge daily when run behind red hat’s satellite (the flailing lame foreman one, not spacewalk).

Wow, was it ever a dog. Yeah, I get it: the company who shat Systemd on the planet can’t be asked to do much better, but still.

1. One party continually tries to pass legislation for safety nets and consolidated services and is blocked by the party that’s controlled the show for almost 40 years

2. That party goes for tax cuts and havens to keep it’s rich donors happy while blocking anything that helps the other 99%

3. You: “both sides. I’m smarter than all of you”

Really?

I wish I lived in a world where this seemed absurd.

They hate us first.

Source: lived there 8 years.

Stayed with FB despite Cambridge because Portal TV.

I’ll still maintain an account because Portal TV.

It’s a gorgeous product done wrong by meta and in need of a cloning.

I’ve never been on IG but I’m strongly considering a pFed account. Am I churn or am I miniscule net-new?

And yeah, it’s a hope that the rumoured meta toxicity is somehow magically not on pFed. I wanna see my nephew’s designs and art but not the influencerati junk I fear is on the captive platform.

Honestly, fuck Ansible.

It’s the dialup of automation tools. It was probably amazing 10 years ago.

It’s actually on par with 20-year-old tech. There’s nothing it’s doing that we weren’t doing back then already in the enterprise space. And, in so many cases where Ansible’s unable to respond well to changes to the system, it ends up not being on par with 20-yer-old tech.

Salt is better as it’s one generation newer, aka last-gen. Puppet, salt, chef/cinc, all the same generation, and we get single source of truth and fast operation de

Current-gen is mgmtconfig, and from it we get instant/constant converging event-driven code. If you like ansible, you’re gonna love sale or cinc. If you love salt or puppet, mgmtconfig will blow your mind clean out the back of your head.

100 servers? 5000? Ansible don’t care

Sub-second convergence of thousands of servers. Files managed so hard you can’t manually mod them as they revert immediately and it’s an actual race to try and mod a file to use it, since it’s hooked into inotify and friends.

James even put in a YAML-ish DSL for the crayola crew who haven’t learned Go yet. :-P

Yeah. Threats are speech that attracts repercussions.

If all the things in the work queue, you’re balking on a COLOUR SCHEME?

That’s like stopping the construction crew for using the wrong colour work boots, man!

Who says NAS to mean anything other than Network-Attached Storage?!?

“When I say left, I kinda mean right half the time almost.”

The wd60efrx is a 5400 with 0.00% failure. I think all the WD reds were 5400.

Criticizing Ubuntu is hivemind? Wow. Now do Systemd critics.

Yes. He is not a an-i-mal.

search for a keyword or URL on all instances.

1. Want search on all instances
2. Code that up with the one site requesting search results from another; what, as an oob cancelmoose but a search?
3. Oh crap. We smurfed ourselves
4. Code removal of DoS by search amplification
5. Go to 1

Iso27002 fail.

• docker kills validation, so we can’t assure consistency as we’re essentially dividing by plaid.
• npm can’t be run in prod due to inconsistency of upstream, and dev tools which are verboten in stage/prod.
