Maybe they shouldn’t have invaded Ukraine.

There are dozens of us!

Still impressive imo, I have friends who work in IT who don’t even self-host lol

I like to call myself a professional idiot. I love tinkering with my homelab setup.

If I had to guess, it’s probably because the entities in charge of these changes are very old and very stuck in their ways.

As someone with a strong tech background, that’s just impressive to me. It’s cool to see non-technical people are interested in self-hosting too, and for good reason.

My last 3 employers have let me use Linux on my work laptop, I’ve gone with Ubuntu each time, it has worked really well for me. I’m lucky that I get to use Linux since I work as a web dev, it often matches production more easily that way.

20TB (out of 21TB usable), a second 6x6TB zfs raidz2 server as my send target.

I’ve registered on a bunch of Lemmy instances, but I stuck with lemmy.ml because for the most part it seemed to have the least amount of downtime IME. Though I think they’re all pretty stable these days anyway.

What you said is very true though, it helps to try out and especially actively use alternatives, since that’s how you end up with software like Chrome (not really but kind of, you get the idea).

I agree, but I also think it depends.

Protesters have blocked hospital entrance ways which is absolutely NOT okay, it can result in people dying and I think the protesters involved should be charged with manslaughter in those cases.

I think I’m fine with disruptive protests as long as it’s not harmfully disruptive. I also think disruptive protests can piss people off and make them angry at you rather than what you are protesting about, and it can end up hurting your cause.

FWIW, I’ve found that the -v flag often doesn’t say why it’s not using your key, just that it isn’t using your key and it has fallen back to password authentication.

It’s usually not terribly helpful for figuring out why it’s not using your key, just that it’s not using your key, which you kind of already know if it’s prompting you for a password. lol

Denouncing violence is very different than supporting or inciting violence, fwiw.

Thankfully that’s one thing that can be restored between BIOS versions for my motherboard lol

Depending on your BIOS and/or motherboard, you can’t restore them between versions. The point of clearing the BIOS settings after flashing a new version is to ensure that you only have values that are expected, which is why restoring backups can often be blocked between versions.

Yay, another BIOS update!

I am getting so sick of all these BIOS updates because of all these security vulnerabilities all the time. It is so tiring having to set up my settings all over again all of the time. Earlier this year, or maybe it was last year, it felt like every month or two there was a new BIOS update for a new security vulnerability.

Though I’m sure the women wouldn’t want to sit near a man who wants to sit with women lol

Nope. I’m more of a dev than a sysadmin these days, pretty much always have been, so I never bothered learning something like Ansible or Puppet or Chef etc. A couple Bash scripts can get me nearly entirely set up so it’s all I ever really needed.

I have a Linux setup script that downloads a bunch of config files and sets them up. I also have backups of my zshrc and other configs, and that helps a ton too. I have a Linux scripts repo on GitHub where I toss all my Linux scripts and that’s quite helpful too.

I think the bigger issue is Ernest simply refused outside help. He took everything on himself and didn’t allow outside contributions, which is just not sustainable for a project of that size. It’s a shame because I really wanted to like KBin, especially since it’s written in PHP and I’m a PHP developer, but Lemmy ended out winning.

Woohoo! We internal now! No more FQDN collisions!
