I’m a self taught child of the 80s that loved to mess around with basic and serial modems when I could finally get 1.
Honestly, I got my first job by low balling the salary and knowing my shit enough to answer questions.
After 1 year I went to a new position paying double. And so on and so forth.
Worst place I ate brought the raw burger to you next to a boiling hot slab of rock. I was expected to cook my own burger the way I liked it. Well fuck you, I’m paying you to cook my meal. Plus it just seemed disgusting to have raw meat at the table anyway
Those stupid kiosks are the worst. And I ly there so they do t have to give another teenager minimum wage for taking orders, it’s not for our convenience at all.
+1 for CMK. It’s built on nagios. Been using it for decades. That shit is rock solid and has never let me down.
Prometheus is metrics and grafana reports it. IMHO, better reporting and graphing, better eye candy. But also harder to setup and get right.
CMK agent works on 95% of what you want with just the agent.
Actually, are we allowed to shoot coyotes in the city limits? Alligators are mostly chill and will just take off, but coyotes hunt around at night here.
I always go for Linux desktop at a job. Office 365 runs just fine in a browser. Not ideal, but MS will never give up teams to a Linux Installer again. They took down the 1 they had which wasn’t great but still worked
Literally 43 workday accounts. And it couldn’t reuse the info I put in 42 times before
Thunderbird. Hate the redesign. If it ain’t broke dont fix it.
K9 for phone
I still have pgp signs, but no one has used it to encrypt back to me in years. Don’t know why I keep those on there and active
I use it on reclaimed hardware … Works great for me. Has all the features you’d want for a home lab, and I run a few production hosts there as well
Didn’t they at one point use a bank of PS3s when they still allowed for Linux boot options?
Reddit is full of bots posting whatever the payer wants to promote. This sudden hatred of Firefox by all these reddit accounts sure does line up with Chrome manifest V3 coming out … Coincidence? I think not
Bash, zshell, BusyBox…you don’t really need anything else
I have a rack in my garage.
My advice, keep it simple, keep it virtual.
I dumpster dove for hardware and run proxmox on hosts. Not even clustered, just simple stand alone proxmox hosts. Connect to my Synology storage device and done.
I run next cloud for webDav contacts and calendar (fuck Google), it does photo and do. Storage. The next client is free from F-Droid for Android and works on debian desktops like a charm.
I run Minecraft server
I run home automation server
I run a media server.
Proxmox backs everything up on schedule
All I need to do is get off-site backup setup for Synology important data and I’m all set.
It’s really not as hard as you think if you keep it simple
Buy good shoes, a good mattress, and a good chair. You’ll spend 95% of your life in them, be comfortable
We dont need open borders, we need a immigration system that can deal with the number of people seeking asylum.
You want a steady stream not a flood.
But I get why people risk it to come here. You can walk down the street without worrying about getting killed, kidnapped, tortured, raped… How about we send some of that 895 billion of pentagon dollars to Mexico for law enforcement instead. Like 10 billion, 1 jet fighter. Make Mexico safe for civilians, create job opportunities, and illegal immigration will slow.
So, food stamps so that people don’t starve…
Oh and just an FYI, immigrants can’t vote. Just so you know.
And don’t forget about separating parents from children, holding illegal immigrants in overcrowded cells made from chain link fences inside buildings… They are America’s version of the Show me your papers patrol.
Hell, offer me free booze, trees, food, and Wrestling… I’ll be there and promise to be better company than those guys
