   Pull the cat5 from a critical nfs server and you'll see plenty of psychiatric conditions, both in computers and people. The analogies were a bit tongue in cheek, but I think they relate well enough. Why does a human have an urge to poo

   And how do you know that a human experienced anything while writing a "heartfelt-seeming" post? Do you think that everyone reading that experienced it as heartfelt? Did you have the "awareness" that it was heartfelt from

   > So, you don't use any browser apps? That's not at all what they said. Some of us use browsers that are not chrome. That would mean having to run 2 browser runtimes to get a thin wrapper with chrome.

   You can launch chrome with google-chrome --app="http://app.com" And get a frameless window. Firefox used to have something like this, but it doesn't appear to work anymore. You can do firefox -chrome &quo

    A lot of us sysadmins are or were developers too, it's a lot easier to maintain a system you understand. Plus if it can be automated in code, it will be automated in code, we're lazy like that (well some of us, if I have to do the

    About a year ago, we started switching over new servers to systemd instead of openrc at work. I knew sysv/openrc/bsdinit and I liked them so for the first month or two I utterly despised systemd. (Plus as a sysadmin it seems like

    Thanks! It uses highlight.js for the syntax highlighting, and I just kinda unleashed it on the home page which isn't any kind of valid syntax, hence the haphazardness, but it looks better than just plain black on white monospace imo. T

    You can also use curl --negotiate -u : for kerberos (provided curl is built with it and spengo). curl supports quite a few less used auth methods, but OP mentioned custom headers, not basic auth per se, (thats why I used Authentication in

    Kinda defeats the purpose of using the tool, but headers in curl are pretty simple: curl http://example.com -H 'Authentication: root' -H 'Password: p4ssw0rd'

    Single quotes would be better, you can still run into trouble with things getting parsed in double quotes. Edit: Example of this in zsh: # tiksi@layla  ~  $ echo "http://example.com/uid=${thisisgone}-$(date)`
