Schools have budgets decided by board members who are elected by the taxpayers; and taxpayers don’t like tax hikes! Thus we have the orphan crushing machine.

What a beautiful boy 😻

Keeping you two in my thoughts ♥️

Thank you for this info!

Who cares do you see how ADORABLE they are?

Good lord my heart 😭

Modem Mischief popped up on my feed recently when I was looking for a podcast about Stuxnet. It’s pretty decent, its dramatizations can be a bit much at times, but it seems thoroughly researched and it has a lot of cool stories about early 90s civilian hacking, which are my favorite. The pentest stories from Darknet Diaries got pretty old.

I just listened to a podcast about him. That’s crazy. What a legend, so sad to hear.

This is currently me and my dad who’s been a Linux sysadmin for over 20 years.

It was under $2/gal during the first summer with covid.

My website/blog is in the cloud but anything that needs local storage or internet access (everything else) is virtualized in a container on proxmox.

Proxmox absolutely changed the game for me learning Linux. Spinning up LXC containers in seconds to test out applications or simply to learn different Linux OSs without worrying about the install process each time has probably saved me days of my life at this point. Plus being able to use and learn ZFS natively is really cool.

This happens to me on Instagram and it makes me want to commit atrocities.

I got boxes full of Pepe!!

Thank you! His sister is named Carol (from HR) so it was kind of perfect

Same. I’m using a 2012 Mac mini running Proxmox attached to an OWC Thunderbay 4. It’s old but does everything I need it to do.

The smooth black parts, yes. The gunky/bumpy parts on the handle, no. That comes from years of continued use and improper cleaning where new oil polymerizes over leftover particulate the next time it’s cooked on.

But I wouldn’t recommend a dishwasher cycle as the method to use to strip your pan either. Self cleaning cycle on the oven should take care of it.

According to my brother who’s a painter and has some sort of certification for lifts, tying off on a scissor lift is not required. But for a boom lift it is, as they’re more dangerous for whatever reason.

I went up in a scissor lift with him this summer for about 30 seconds. It was awful. Not a fan of heights. Tying off would not have helped me feel better either.

KDE connect worked nicely on my iphone for awhile but now I can’t get it to work. But yeah it is pretty cool.

Amateur data hoarder here; teach me your ways

I use Arch for my desktop and a container or two just for funsies. My website runs on Arch actually and never had had any issues with either that or my desktop. Debian is what I typically use though for my containers like Plex, photoprism, etc. I’ve heard people say Debian can be harder than Arch. I’m still mostly a noob so idk fit certain but I’ve come across things where Debian didn’t work but Arch did. Thought it was interesting.

I was in art school when Tumblr was at its peak. Looking back it was dumb, just resharing pictures and gifs but I had so much fun. I met so many people through Tumblr that I’m still in contact with.
