It's hard to do the latter. When is the appropriate time to intervene to ask if everything is ok? But I can't tell you how many times I've not had a fork, or needed a drink and my waitperson never came to ask if I needed anyt

Tipping is supposed to be for exceptional service. For example, if the wait person takes your order and brings your food and nothing more I wouldn't tip. If they do the above and keep your water glass filled constantly without need to

I said this the moment TSA was created. "Wow fedgov! Thanks! You just made my job as a terrorist exponentially easier! Now instead of having to get through security to get on a plane and blow it up, you corralled all the people on mult

I wouldn't tell them shit. I would tell them I have none. Prove me wrong brown shirts.

Thanks for taking the time to reply both of you. I've always wondered how those of you who are able to do remote 100% of the time do it. This helps get us started. Thank you.

A question to all of you who only work remotely, and I'm sure it's been covered by HN so forgive me, but where do you find reliable work that's remote? I can see getting lucky maybe and scoring one maybe two gigs that allow r

I can't even tell what this does. I just woke up but is this like capsicum on freebsd, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=raNx9L4VH2k , or jails in the FS, or both? Clearly I need to wake up.

Savers? What savers? No one is saving. Americans are drowning in debt. How many studies have been done showing the average American is living Paycheck to paycheck and couldn't sustain losing their job or a medical emergency? Even those

So let me add myself into your equation. I live in Kansas City. I pay $70/mo for google fiber. 1Gbit down, 1Gbit up. So for twice what TWC is charging you I get 10x more bandwidth down, and 100 times more bandwidth up. So can we agree

I think it's standard op in the states when 911 is called that fire/ems/cops show up. I'm very! Glad to hear the cops use their power of discretion to let her go. And not fucking ruin her already bad life by imprisoning

I feel like its "something else". Anytime I hear stories like this I think of Amazon reviews where clearly someone is doing something incorrectly yet blames the company. Shrug.

Same here. The fact the above poster got two replacement phones for free is proof they have good service. You think a dead pixel on a google pixel phone will get replaced? Let alone twice. I don't think so. Apple has good service but t

Yes, it was odd. They are still rolling out in the cities they are in but have given up expanding to other cities. As usual I think they just don't have the will to power through the issues to keep deploying in city after city. Or they

Apples main audience is not technical people. There is your first mistake. So comparing apples support for non technical people to dells technical oriented people support is flawed.
405.
by X86BSD 10y ago
First google is no apple. Don't expect that level of service. They simply don't care. Second it's not just with their new phone the pixel they support poorly. Try having problems with google fiber. The stories of them taking

If your that concerned with redundancy use a 3-disk striped mirror with ZFS. Redundancy AND great I/O.
407.
by X86BSD 10y ago
I run stripped mirrors with ZFS. 2x2. RAIDZ is simply to slow in comparison. Like A LOT slower. Ill just eat the storage loss with mirrors. Disk is cheap.

by X86BSD 10y ago
Gah! Why is anyone even uttering the word "RAID". Ugh. ZFS people. ZFS.

That's an interesting take from someone who develops a kernel that the rest of the world has to rip out all sorts of "linux'isms" from code daily and deal with the pain of porting non portable Linux code to their platfor

I tried keybase. I find it a novelty. It's just as awful to use as pgp. So regardless of anything else it offers it's a dead end like pgp. It's designed by developers and security nerds I get it. But that's who it will s

Interesting to me is that in the US most parents want to give their kids the boot at 18. In India, where my wife is from, family lives together. Family is a big thing there. It is not uncommon to see mom and dad, daughter and son, grandmas

I believe I read yesterday this is being committed soon to FreeBSD head.

My opinion on this as it always has been is Linux gets some new features first before freebsd but they are always done sloppily, half assed, and start getting refined and fixed about the time freebsd implements the same feature after thinki

I just wanted to thank you publicly for all your hard work on this. The community will benefit greatly from this. If I recall, correct me if I am wrong, didn't you also port FreeBSD to the Alpha many moons ago? I loved the Alpha and it

I know I speak for many in the BSD camp when I say we thank you too for ALL your work in our corner of the open source world.

And how much is the cord cutter market that isn't streaming any of their sports except NHL right now? All the cord cutters are just simply not watching it. Good lord even Cricket is streamable from Willow. And few Americans watch crick

by X86BSD 10y ago
Then they should stop refusing to allow cord cutters to stream live games. They either need to renegotiate or break their current contracts that lock them into their affiliates having the only broadcast rights to games. Seriously it's

The difference between iOS and android could not be more clear in this regard. It's interesting to see the difference in security between the two. It's night and day. Google has some serious problems to address. But it seems like

Actually for resource quotas/management there is rctl. So resources can be managed.
