I blame him for MacBook unibody design that made whole generations of mbooks gone way too soon because of heat stress. But shiny metal pretty!

I blame him for the whole butterly keyboard fiasco that made me stop using MBooks.

I don’t blame him for smartphones because I don’t think he invented those.

Asahi linux. AFAIK Linus Tovalds still uses Macs - he has done so at least since the Intel era. I am co nsidering buying one as first a sort of low power gaming console (on MacOs) and eventually as an efficient yet powerfull home server…

Well If you take in account how hard has “The Chief Xit” tried to destroy Twitter and piss off anyone using it, this is actually unexpectadly good result! More Powah to the Man Child 😂 . Also - there is no longer the $1 payment for account creation - I guess bot traffic is better than no traffic 😂.

I am no longer objective: I love these, I’ve been IDCing specifically the 91mm versions (like yours) my entire adult life. It has become a true extension of my body. I wouldn’t consider a change simply because the muscle memory - this thing jumps into my hand safely and reliably without me ever getting to think about it no matter if I am drunk/ stoned or anything. The rule is that when I no longer can find the beer bottle opener - it’s the most tricky one on the knife IMO - I should consider going home. Nothing gets close, different knifes can actually get dangerous for me now because I ain’t used to the shape and I ain’t any longer used to watch my hands operating a knife - I watch only when the cutting is done.

Anyway, I find the old-school opening “an important feature”. These Victorinox knives are widely recognized around the world as not suitable for self-defense (at least not an effective one), which makes them perfect to bring places, where “regular” eg. “liner lock” knives might get you strange stares if not straight up confiscation. Places like government buildings, schools or guarded server rooms. The 58? mm models are too small for effective use, the bigger ones tend to have locks. I am an admin.

bt keyboards can be absolutelly critical for some users with disabilities. most of the developing world can’t afford to own several devices like a computer and a phone.

Firefox on Android doesn’t support keyboard shortcuts - for the last 12 years. Sooo - let’s add the bloody AI, that is going to help

I am not an expert - just an avid knife freak - but in my experience “Stainless” means “Stain Less” not “Stain Resistent”. Eg. s35vn is relatively high quality stainless knife steel - that does not mean it ain’t gonna pickup stains - all mine did… I suspect one of the differences between my knifes / Elons Cybertruck vs. your cookware is that your cookware is mirror polished while my knives and the cybertruck are sporting “satin finish” which looks quite esthetically first 5 mnts - but is quite inpractical…

Backup on different levels, one of my clients who I would say has similar ifrastructure uses following approach:

• backup on the vm level - backing up snapshot of the entire virtualization guest - at least once a week, always before update/upgrade. These can be big - consider ZFS pool w/ compression and deduplication active - but that is also hw intesive. On the other hand, I don’t think you need to keep more than last two successfull backups.
• filesystem level - run rdiff-backup against the / of the filesystem several times a day. SInce it is essentially versioning, you are only backing up new changes. No zetabyte needed here, ext3/4 will do.
• drop database somewhere ideally several times a day - even if there are no incidents, your developers will love you.

The recovery strategy is as follows:

• pull the guest out of the last vm backup
• sync up the files from last rdiff-backup run
• discuss w/ the developer DB recovery - or just recover the last backup and hope for the best…

I use my laptop a lot (usually plugged in)

Warning : I’ve used to fix apple computers back in the day when there were still things to fix, and if this had happened to an Apple device and it had less than 50 cycles on it and was over 6 months from purchase (meaning it went less then 50x under 50% of your full battery capacity), they would refuse to replace it saying it is user’s fault. Nbooks with NiMh batteries could stay connected to power forever, notebooks with Li-ion batteries need to “excercise them”.

…and just a few hours later: claims of being mistinterpreted (again - Guardian). Poor princeling - never even imagined someone could speak back to him and now has no idea how to act. Maybe shouldn’t have left the cave after all 🤔

It’s understandable that people hate him but spreading lies is where I draw the line.

I would argue that anyone capable of dispassionately studying this subject can equally easily find that Elon Musk is not a reliable source of information (I’d dare say a liar) , eg:

• the famous solar city presentation where Musk showcased several houses with solar tiles. The houses were a tv set for Desperate Hosewives, and tiles he was showing off simply didn’t exist. That can’t imagine a scenario where this could be an honest mistake.
• the funding secured tweet from 2018 where he claimed he had enough money to take Tesla private at 420 USD / share. He got sued therefore we know he didn’t - even remotly.

I don’t know whether Elon is a genius or not - but when somebody, who is proven to be somewhat creative with the truth, also claims that he is a genius - specially in the “I know more about manufacturing than anyone else alive” manner - I don’t think it is unreasonable to have doubts.

Wow, I’ve never heard about “GIZCHINA”. It definitely isn’t gizmodo - right? 🤔 Right!

• it is a Czech company with entire capital stock consisting of 4USD 😎 (cca 100 CZK)
• the text is showing hight probability of AI generation. Which adult human being is going to write eg: " In this article, we will discuss the FAA report in detail, including the risks posed by falling satellites, the causes of these risks, and the potential solutions to mitigate them." 🤖
• it does not say anything else than this - much more likely human written thing here - only the original is only 1/3 as long. That is IMO how come the AI Writing is literraly jumping out on you from the article. 😱

This is my least favourite century yet.

A dirty linux admin here. Imagine you get ssh’d in nginx log folder and all you want to know are all the ips that have been beating againts certain URL in around last let’s say last seven days and getting 429 most frequent first. In kittie script its like find -mtime -7 -name "*access*" -exec zgrep $some_damed_url {} \; | grep 429 | awk '{print $3}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -r | less depends on how y’r logs look (and I assume you’ve been managing them - that’s where the zgrep comes from) should be run in tmux and could (should?) be written better 'n all - but my point is - do that for me in gui

(I’m waiting ⏲)
