Except on my… Other account.

This was the best rabbit hole I went down during covid. These guys are awesome.

Yeah, generally the worry is about rat lungworm.

Yeah I’m in a (primarily) Windows shop too, but we have many Linux servers that I manage and maintain. My DD at home is CachyOS, and I’m very familiar with management of a fleet of Ubuntu servers. I’ve already told the guys on my team I’m ready to just switch at work too. Might cause me some management issues at times though because of needing Windows Server management tools (e.g. RSAT), but I suppose I could jump box that.

Seriously had no idea what YKK was until the Pete & Bas lyric from Gangster Shit.

Yeah I gave up on flatpak when I wanted to use it with Steam + gamescope + gamemode + MangoHUD. It just wasn’t worth the hassle of configuring all the permissions, especially for someone who doesn’t mind updating the native install.

Who? Where? Get them over here, right now.

I hear that Captain Kirrahe is a bit of a cloaca.

Which is especially funny since for some pearl clutching prudes, her having an OF at all, regardless of content, was controversial. I wouldn’t sub, but that’s also completely her call if she wants to be out there like that.

Let’s get it right, Democrats are on board, but they aren’t liberals. Of the two parties, they are more left than Republicans, but still conservative, not even moderate. The US has no dominant liberal party at all. Democrats would like you to think they’re liberal but only because it’s a convenient talking point when debating Republicans.

Well, in that case…

At this point, if you have hardware, Linux is a good choice. New or old. The older it is might change which distro, but still a good choice.

Shere uses arch btw

Your mistake is thinking it’s a hive mind in the first place. People argue on here all the same as they did on Reddit. The only things the fediverse provides us are avoiding a highly commercialized forum, freedom of app choice, and controls in what instances we accept communication with. Probably some other major things, but those are my top three.

Just stop yelling into an obvious echo chamber and find communities you’re more aligned with.

The only thing that would make that URL even more sketch is having a .xyz TLD.

Thank you, I’ll be watching that tonight! Yeah knew who it was, just not the set name, I just haven’t watched a lot of his stand-up.

A man needs a name.

Agreed. I like my current job more than the previous one that I put 23 years into, but I have to remind myself to value my time more than I had been. I still put in a lot of hours when I’m knee deep into a project, but it’s almost always at my own leisure that I do so. It’s a crazy balance of respecting myself while also fighting off the imposter syndrome because the guys in my team are always really supportive because of my experience. It’s strange going from a job where I have to defend my actions and choices to a job where I’m inherently trusted.

But yes, if I could go back, I would tell my younger self that my job pays the bills but it’s not who I am. Leave the job behind me after hours while doing what I can to do a good job while on the clock.

Yep. Already did at home and I still need Windows at work. I may get to that point eventually but not there yet myself. When it’s time for a hardware refresh for me, I think I’ll push for Linux and see if I can work on ways to roll it out elsewhere too. I really need to find a way to manage it in a similar way to Group Policy, but haven’t looked into it too much yet.
