  • outdated as usual, lets joke about the xz exploit

    Jump

  • The XZ exploit was found because some dude was investigating performance issues in a system, and noticed an unusual amount of time being spent in SSH processing, IIRC.

  • I've never played games. Suggest a couple of addictive games I can play on Linux

    Jump

  • So, you're a tech nerd who wants an addictive game?

    Factorio.

    Also Satisfactory, but I'm not sure how well it runs on Linux. Fairly sure Factorio will run on just about anything

  • A large state corporation in Brazil is currently trialing 800 Linux PCs. If successful, it will deploy and replace 22k Windows installs, comparable to the migration happening in Germany.

  • Windows 11 has ads NOW, in the enterprise install I'm provided at work.

  • Fox News now accusing Scrabble of being too “woke”

    Jump

  • "Yeah, Jessica, we've talked about this. You can't just SAY that racist things should be avoided, we're trying to APPEAL to racists, remember?"

  • Microsoft won't update your Windows 11 PC if it has these apps

    Jump

  • So, wait, Mocrosoft is finally giving us a way to fully-disable automatic Windows Updates?

  • No profit motive.

  • Where to watch MLB games?

    Jump

  • MLB 66

  • What web services do you subscribe to?

    Jump

  • A couple of video streaming services, Hulu, which includes Disney+, Discovery+ and Netflix. That totals up to like $50/mo or so.

    Other than that, it's aaaallllll independent creators, through Twitch or Patreon.

  • To those with 2+ monitors on your machine: What's your use case, and how much does it actually boost your productivity?

    Jump

  • For work, I have 2 monitors, and my docked laptop. The main two monitors are hugely beneficial for software development, as I can reference design docs or requirements while writing code, or I can have the debugger running on one screen, while the app runs on the other.

    The laptop screen is where Teams and Outlook sit, so I can glance over at messages from the team, and maybe respond, without having to swap around any of my workspace.

  • The real personality test

    Jump

  • Protip: don't even engage with those systems. Just press 0. Every time it prompts you to say something to proceed. Has yet to fail me.

  • I feel old

    Jump

  • The fuck is "cheugy"? How the hell do you pronounce that?

  • Aaargh....my eyes......my eyes......

    Jump

  • I'll take this over the more "classic" styles, when people seed to believe they were paying the compiler by the character.

  • I'm looking to drop cable but need live sports alternative.

    Jump

  • You mention Bally and baseball, mlb66 was my go-to last year.

  • RAID or single drive for backups?

    Jump

  • Generally speaking, fault protection schemes need only account for one fault at a time, unless you're a really large business, or some other entity with extra-stringent data protection requirements.

    RAID protects against drive failure faults. Backups protect against drive failure faults as well, but also things like accidental deletions or overwrites of data.

    In order for RAID on backups to make sense, when you already have RAID on your main storage, you'd have to consider drive failures and other data loss to be likely to occur simultaneously. I.E. RAID on your backups only protects you from drive failure occurring WHILE you're trying to restore a backup. Or maybe more generally, WHILE that backup is in use, say, if you have a legal requirement that you must keep a history of all your data for X years or something (I would argue data like this shouldn't be classified as backups, though).

  • Why is defederation an option when Limit/Mute exist?

    Jump

  • Defederation is an administrative solution, specifically for when the user-facing tools like muting and blocking aren't enough. It's the solution against instance admins that aren't capable or willing to moderate their users, or that are actively malicious.

  • FCC Denies Starlink Low-Orbit Bid for Lower Latency

    Jump

  • So, what you're saying is, their current setup is working for you, and their new proposal for lower-orbit satellites isn't really necessary?

  • Sometimes you really need that vodka shot when things go wrong in the database

    Jump

  • Can I get an Oracle version?

  • I can't believe people are still using GUMBIES when there are so many better alternatives.

    Jump

  • If you're unsure about GUMBIES, you should take a look at this video.

  • I can't believe people are still using GUMBIES when there are so many better alternatives.

    Ooooo, new programmer meme lore.
