Chaotic Entropy

I guess I am pretty far from saturating my WiFi in any way, the removal of cables with little to no impact on connectivity was far more of a priority for me. I have never noticed a WiFi related outage or performance loss.

I should have rebuilt an old coffee maker in to a Pi Hole instead. I’m such a rube.

I have never felt the need to have a wired connection for my DNS/DHCP, since such a trivial amount of data exchanges hands. The quality of the wired connection if it had one would similarly have negligible impact, surely.

I mean, a lot of things would work, I could power it all with potato batteries if I had enough. The Pi Zero 2 W only cost ~£15 anyway.

Yeah… I’m not going to stick a clunky old laptop on top of my bookshelf and have it run 24/7 as my PiHole. My Pi Zero 2 W is far more appropriate.

Smite the Reich?

Wherever you put it?

Every 6 months half of it gets removed, to use as fertiliser, and it is refilled with tap water and some feed.

It sounded cool a couple of years ago, but it was first installed in 2021 and I’m yet to hear of it really going anywhere.

Well, they’re also taking swings at Fedora which isn’t usually as maligned. Besides that, there’s a lot in their comment that people could have strong opinions about beside “Ubuntu bad”.

I reserve the right to use my copy of “Mario is Missing!” from 1993.

The owner and proprietor of what is now a Nazi bar can’t decouple themselves from what it is they are operating. Which is the local Nazi bar.

If your bar is where all the Nazis go to hang out, I’m afraid you have a Nazi bar.

It’s going to be a fun historical period to look back on when there are just huge gaps where IP/product control became so powerful that no record of certain things were allowed to exist.

I’ve asked one question, one time in those comments and it just got buried in people spitting venom at each other about their file system preferences.

It’s the thing you only tell your “ride-or-die bitch” server.

“In IT” could mean anything from first line support worker to software project manager to network engineer. Can you be more specific…?

It feels like the crypto mining goldrush really changed the way GPU manufacturers view the market.

Presumably they wanted something a bit more thorough and clear than a table of numbers with no information besides:

These tests were done on various hardware running games, both old and new, with and without the new driver being active.

The notifications in one of our systems is aligned with UTC because it needs to be for a whole bunch of background services to function. Periodically (every couple of years) someone raises a ticket to complain that the time of their notifications is an hour out, and the 2nd line support worker will think “well that’s easy, I’ll just change the server time to BST”. This then brings this whole suite of applications to a crashing halt as everything fails.
