I have one, it’s been great.

That said, “exactly what the problem is” isn’t always the same as telling you the solution. I had a “misfire on cyl #3” error or something like that, which can be a number of things. Replacing all the coils and plugs myself was probably still cheaper than taking it to the shop though!

If you’re running it via docker compose it’s trivial to upgrade, and there are no breaking changes. Pull, down, up, you’re done.

In grad school I bought a blue (405nm) laser pointer. It was supposed to be <5mW, but I measured it at over 70mW.

When I criticize my baby, he looks me in the eyes and asserts dominance with a “what you gonna do about it?” shit grin.

Comparing him to Stephen Miller is just offensive.

My favorite is habanero — there’s no ñ, just n, but some will make a show of pronouncing it with the incorrect ñ sound.

First, that would be lousy public transit design and the route should be rethought.

Second — does this hyppthetical bus run other routes? Is it electric, powered by overhead lines?

Of course you can up with niche counterexamples for an argument presented in meme format, but that doesn’t mean it’s not, broadly speaking, correct.

Frigate is pretty good, too. I’ve only been running it for a few months but I’m very happy with it.

I’m in California, but we still (currently) have the same federal bullshit requirements. Doctor friend said I should lie.

Made an appointment, and the pharmacist asked if I was immunocompromised, or XYZ, and I just told them that I qualify—no follow up questions, just a jab in the arm.

To be fair, I do have anxiety that my government is trying to kill me, but that’s just crazy…

Though, technically that leaves you more at risk of ransomeware or something that overwrites your data.

I rsync as well, but use snapshotting on the remote drives. So, a bad rsync would suck but shouldn’t really result in data loss. Ransomware on my local+remote server would of course be very bad…

I do something similar — I have a raspberry pi and a HD, with daily rsync and snapshots (monthly retained indefinitely, weekly retained for a month, daily retained for a week). It’s at family’s house, connected to my home via WireGuard via a VPS. Tailscale (or anything really) would also work here.

It’s a great setup! Just have some watchdog reboot if it can’t talk to home (a simple cronjob with ping -c1 home.lan || reboot or similar).

Even our “slow” 35Mbps upload speed is way more than enough for incremental rsyncs of my Immich library. The initial sync was done in person, though.

I got one from goHardDrive on eBay (link). It was cheap enough, looks flawless, and knock on wood has been working fine.

Googling around, the brand gets…mixed reviews. My use case is such that of this drive fails it’s not a big deal.

poweroff and reboot work as advertised for me, but I’m running headless homelab servers and a laptop with i3. Maybe DEs/GUI shutdown is more subtle?

Yeah, I run i3 and headless servers, so it’s poweroff or reboot for me. Always works as advertised.

Except on the Linux systems I’ve used, when I ask it to shut down, it shuts down no matter what. Windows and macOS let programs stop the shutdown process indefinitely (when shutdown/reboot are invoked the usual way).

I think that’s what the meme is trying to get at.

*Turmeric. If I had a nickel for every time I’ve seen someone forget the first R I’d have like three nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but still kinda interesting.

Early Bulletin Said Ammunition in Kirk Shooting Engraved With Transgender, Antifascist Ideology; Some Sources Urge Caution

It sounds like a bulletin was indeed circulated, and it sounds like the WSJ is being pretty candid about the law enforcement response:

Law-Enforcement Officials Sow Confusion on Manhunt for Kirk Shooter / Contradictory public statements risk undermining confidence in investigation, law enforcement veterans say

The WSJ is not going to have first hand access to the evidence, so they have to report (transparently!) what they’re told by credible sources. In this case, it sounds like law enforcement — supposed to be credible — is not. It’s a pretty tricky thing to report on.

Bezos is Washington Post, not WSJ…

Never said that at all. I’ve had some fantastic food in England.

Oh please. The US has many problems, and there are food deserts to be sure — but go to a first class US city and you’ll find great food.
