Well now I want an old ugly bike. Where do you park yours? 😉

I use Debian everywhere but if I need a Live Linux environment to recover files, clone a drive, wipe a drive, or really anything else I use ventoy and a Linux mint iso.

I’m a cool grandpa with old hardware.

I’m using servicenow. First time and it’s pretty bad. But I hear that it is actually worse than normal because they customized the hell out of it trying to make it match the previous solution.

When I started working at NI they were still using Lotus Notes. 🤮

One of my favorite snacks lately is tamari almonds and a slice of smoked provolone cheese.

That’s what we assume.

I was a poor kid living in Hawaii in the mid 90’s.

Wendy’s in Hawaii had a salad bar. If you ordered the “dine in” salad bar, they gave you a fairly small plate and you were allowed one trip.

If you ordered it to go, you still had the one trip restriction, but they would give you a big plastic clamshell to go container. They assumed you would put food in the bottom of the container and close it up and leave.

Not me. I would order to go, but fill both halves of the container and eat it all at one of the tables. Usually one of the halves was mostly Chocolate pudding and cheezy crackers.

I moved my personal email domain to fastmail. I’ve been very happy with it. I am using the Standard plan at $50 per year.

It’s nice being the customer instead of the product.

They can also host static web sites for no additional cost on this plan. So I canceled my web hosting plan too.

I use the terminal so much that I frequently accidentally use Ctrl-Shift-C and V outside of the terminal.

Ctrl-Shift-V usually works pretty well as it does a paste without formatting in a lot of places.

Accidentally hitting Ctrl-Shift-C though in a MS Team’s chat though, starts a voice call with all chat participants. 😑 hate it

Bad parents are a thing. Children screaming loudly in an indoor environment should be corrected.

I don’t think your opinion is unpopular. There are lots of people who will agree with you that libraries should be absolutely silent.

But I don’t agree. There should be space for kids to learn to love books. They might noiser that you would like, but kids who love books are a benefit to our world.

Libraries are a community meeting place, one of the last good third spaces left. If you want perfect silence go home.

Libraries are not your unpaid office space.

wth. really?

That’s not a thing.

There is a book called “The gentle art of swedish death cleaning”.

It’s kind of like the whole Marie Kondo Tidying thing but with a different perspective.

The idea is that when you die, someone has to deal with all your crap. Dealing with all of your extra pointless crap while you are alive will improve your life in the present, allow you to enjoy the things you care about, and make it a lot easier for those who need to take care of your stuff when you are gone.

There was also a show on peacock, about it. Torrents are your friend.

Also, do some Swedish Death Cleaning.

Every distro.

Samba file shares should use regular user credentials and not have separate samba usernames and passwords.

Every distro with gnome.

Make RDP work as well as it does on Windows.

I’m talking about remoting into the Linux system.

Everytime the system is restarted you have to physically login to the system to unlock the keyring so that your RDP password is accessible or you won’t be able to get in. Or you have to remove your keyring password all together. Why is this different than the regular user password?

Also it’s weird that it works like VNC where you are controlling the system remotely but anyone local can see what you are doing on the screen. It is also cool to have that option but it shouldn’t be the default.
