'till

Oh geeze.

Some people have test environments that aren’t their prod environment.

Others stick with a distro that has better validation and/or long-term support.

Please don’t blame the kernel devs.

Everything’s better than Systemd.

Hell, I bruised my hip bone once at a martial arts seminar. The next-level pain I felt from just that make me worry for when I’m dumber/older and need a replacement.

Looking at trending, it’s 50-50 I’ll be fine into my 80s or be 4-joints-bionic by 70. Nothing in-between.

Consider that once the laser you, your astigmatism is gone: even if you need corrective lenses, they’re much simpler than they could be.

As an example, my twin got his eyes done when he was rocking some serious coke-bottle lenses and working the fancy FAANG jobs and livin’ large. He’s had a coupla tune-ups, but never for the astigmatism. (and, even now, they’ve tuned one eye for close focus and the brain still copes, drastically reducing his need for presbyopia lenses)

That’s neat how that’s been a standard feature of enterprise Linux for 20 years. They call them alt-packages and, even before a succession of environment juggling and subversion swapping, they worked really well.

(Still do, except all the people who knew how to figure dependencies have left RH. I’m looking at you, Ansible who will soon need containers for even client install)

You: ‘u’

Me: downvote

Systemd detects problematic software? Bit of pot-calling-the-kettle, there.

Is this the same America where words controlled the people who controlled the guns on 6January?

The Rwanda genocide wasn’t carried out with guns as the primary weapon. It was machetes and fire.

It’s only very rarely one-on-one like a movie gunfight.

Everyday

• everyday: mundane, usual
• every day: daily

I think OOP is in the wrong lane.

There was 25 years between c;m;mi and lennart’s cancer, filled with excellent choices better than either.

I feel this deep in my homelab.

So, like, Michigan?

It also kills validation. You think you know what’s installed, but you have 4 copies of it and 3 of them have been sploited and you have no clue.

All that shit - appimage, snaps, containers - they all hide versions and signed manifests from you while still being terrible in other ways.

Is that prison alien or Michael Wincott alien? Both were excellent and pushed the lore a bit.

That’s not Charlie Kirk, is it ?

Ur Fav[e]

None of these look like everyday Sumerians as one would see in Ur.

Every time I see flatpaks, the former OS security dev in me cringes.

JHTerpstra taught me so much in the 00s, and his lessons haven’t stopped being relevant.

Redhat 35 years ago

… Was 3 years before it was created.

30, right?
