Can you imagine me supporting my entire household on my income? Forget about the stress of being the sole provider; there is no regular family out there who can live on one income!

Please also consider mikrotik brand gear. I’ve been told they’re especially easy to manage as one moves from manual control to something declarative like terraform(opentofu).

I dot know about all gen-x but I feel a strong aggressive feeling at ‘bruh’. Maybe the legion of kids saying it so often that you wish for a ‘literally’ as respite has given me opinions.

Also it’s in Alberta, that stronghold of maple maga and perhaps our worst labour laws. I hope there’s some serious punitive pain on this.

Moe could look forward to the negative interaction just because it’s honest interaction. I see your point in that light.

natural gas

Say methane. It’s methane. It’s the same methane that is like 20x as bad for the environment as gasoline.

But I think even the worst case did not have “world war” into consideration.

Specifically “blowing up regional methane storage” was probably unexpected.

Their house will be nicer than average, probably not crazy, but just a lot more than a typical person would have.

I hear Michael Bublé lives in a modest house he inherited, and he’s a great neighbour. But he seems as un-Hollywood as people can be, so he may be a bad example.

Or if you live in a crazy expensive neighborhood or building, your neighbors are pretty much guaranteed to be rich.

Careful. We’re paying $4.10/sqft/mo rent and we are NOT rich; just in a very overpriced area.

That’s just systemd adding a birthdate field to their userdb. Doesn’t require that it be filled out or accurate

Whoosh.

The self-important creator of Systemd has personally blocked that PR, if I’m hearing correctly, which would suggest he or his employer Microsoft is all in on it.

Maybe this’ll take the shine off that wunderkinder mess and people will finally be free to choose something more reliable. I love how RH pushed this beta software so hard and my reboots are now just shite – unreliable and occasionally ridiculously delayed.

I’ll be glad to see the back of that metastatic shitball.

weird grab bag

You don’t mention whether that is adherence to the FHS or denial of it.

One of those options is, to be clear, violating a standard.

The NorTel remembers.

The CI turned me off though. It’s like they saw how bad GitHub is for CI and said “no notes. Just like that”

And I use the CI config a huge amount.

So lennart personally blocked the revert? Fucking on-brand for all he’s wrecked in Linux.

Is he still working at Microsoft, or was he just too special for them too?

Insulting and belittling your allies is a sure-fire plan. Double-down if it falters.

Wow. Every word of that is frightening.

I left my union job when a toxic manager started becoming … toxic. The new dot-com job was a really great fit.

So I quit on a Friday, hopped a plane, flew about 6 hours, found a hotel overnight, stayed at a really shitty AirB&B for a day because the first apartment was rented out from underneath me, found ANOTHER apartment, and thankfully close to work because, yes, it was a foot commute in December at -40c/-40f until the wife sold our place, paid movers, gathered the two cats and flew out.

Started work that Monday. They’d changed the job description while I was on a fucking plane. Those fuckers. But there I was, 4,000 km from home, no job, and while this was before the house sold, the job market back home was absolute shite. No going back.
