Interesting. My reasoning is that narcissistic people crave attention, which cats may not give so overtly as a dog. Basically for a dog, a person is a god and some people love that kind of relationship.

People who don’t like cats.

I’ve noticed a correlation between people who don’t like cats and having narcissistic or selfish tendencies. Could be just an impression but that’s how I feel.

Don’t forget quicksand… I spent all my childhood afraid of falling into it. Somehow it was an unwarranted concern.

There’s also Homarr for those who prefer a nice and easy frontend to install the arr suite and more.

I love zfs. Started using it for my data storage pool and now I have it on root as well. It has some rough edges but overall it is very stable and has amazing features.

This is correct. Ive helped a bunch of people (in Linux) complaining that chrome was eating all their ram when in fact it wasn’t. Memory management is hard and it’s easy to look at the wrong indicators.

It does love its ram but not as much as people think.

Uh oh… Looks like someone chose the $5 option…

I’ve worked extensively with both virtualbox and kvm/qemu. While I prefer kvm since it’s open source, I could never reproduce the video performance of virtualbox. I’m not even trying to game, just use regular applications that I cannot run under Linux.

I wonder if I’m missing something.

My favorite religious saying is “God helps those who help themselves”. This is a bit like that old story of the pill that kills your thirst, but you have to take it with a cup full of water.

Unity, Google, Discord. All within a day or two of each other.

For every number of employees laid off, a VP level employee must be fired. Those employees didn’t hire themselves. Someone came up with the idea.

If companies don’t do this they’re not attacking the root of the problem.

I honestly never used it. Isn’t it the same as something like alt-f which will open the file menu?

Another useless key? Use Scroll lock or SysRq for that. Or even better, reuse that stupid “menu” key. They’ll cram one more key to the left of the spacebar and make ctrl, alt, and windows keys smaller. Or change their order.

The PCC must be feeling all smart about their spy balloon design choices. Just wait until they need to talk to Comcast customer support…

When things lock up, will a kill -9 kill rsync or not? If it doesn’t, and the zpool status lockup is suspicious, it means things are stuck inside a system call. I’ve seen all sorts of horrible things with usb timeouts. Check your syslog.

And I thought it meant Bible Discussion and Studies Meeting

Twitter is a mess that we can see. Imagine all the shit hidden on Tesla software that we can’t.

Uh what do you mean by “complex” here? That’s what apps script is for. I have a spreadsheet that processes my gmail inbox using regular expressions. Try that in Excel.

I’ve been using NiMH batteries for a long long time now. Very few devices dislike them at this point. Some will show the “battery low” icon but keep working as they typically have much higher charges than alkalines.

I like tailscale and have been testing it for a few months. I’m also using headscale as the control plane.

Unfortunately the android client is somewhat unreliable. It works most of the time but once in a while, connections to your tailnet will fail for a bit and require retries. If you ping a machine in your tailnet during this problem, it will show packet loss and then start working after a few pings. This unfortunately makes it difficult to have a reliable split DNS setup.

I’ve done everything to try and understand what happens without success. It seems like state is lost somewhere and a few packets flowing will fix it. Running a constant ping from Android to my tailnet “fixes” the problem, but is not a great workaround.

Just something to keep in mind before you jump headfirst.

Wut? Blue? Are you sure about that? Afaik the peak is around 555nm, yellow green. Why do you think we have “high visibility yellow” vests and not “high visibility blue?”

IIRC 555nm (or whereabouts) stimulates the L and M cones simultaneously.
