Comparing off the shelf USED hardware to new one isn't exactly fair. Yeah, it's option to consider but I don't think price comparison is fair or even important here. What is however is that you can just generally shove an SSD

Well, system-wise Go app is just a binary that only needs network access, could be run directly from systemd and just have all permissions set there. Docker is a bunch of file mounts and app running in separate namespaces. So extra daemon,

It become easier few years ago as tools to embed files are now nicely builtin into Go instead of external packages.

Same way you do with any other app not specifically designed for it; you start 2 copies of it and put loadbalancer in front of it. I did that via some systemd voodoo But TECHNICALLY to do that in one without external proxy you'd need

And with a little bit of code you can do switching between "use embedded files/use local files" on the app start easily and have convenience of not having to re-compile app to change some static files.

We used that to make a simple "VPN diagnostics" app for our helpdesk (app checked connectivity and config of the machine then displayed the summary page). Only thing that needed to be written per-os is how to call a browser to dis

That's one reason I like Go's model of "import is just an URL path" Sure it has some problems but it's far preferable than to be slaved to single entity controlling repo

Excluding people that want to shove emoji in is morally good thing.

Even the top bar is barely legible, light grey on light... whatever color is that. Or maybe just whoever designed that had different monitor settings than average user and it looks okayish there...

All hardware is theirs, you rent it. They repair it when it fails at no cost, but they don't monitor everything (althought some come with agent to install on dedicated server that passes monitoring data to their system). So if you say

Technically stuff like overheating they could monitor via IPMI (which they most likely use for OOB control anyway)

Maybe he detected 0 RPM without looking at temperature.... some controllers will just stop fans when there is enough cooling. We had a bunch of racks and fan failures gotta be one of rarest one. Even on my personal junk I had zero actual f

I swear, every time some helpdesk Linux issue filters to us it ends up being "well, that worked fine in Debian, Ubuntu fucked something up"...

Both Discord and MS Teams use React (afaik) and only one of them runs shit. Both are not exactly light tho

Coz you need working multicast across entire network or server-per-datacenter to multicast (and data still needs to get to that server). It's much simpler to just point a server to torrent tracker and let them exchange stuff between th

Their label printers also don't do DRM like now Dymo does. The scum even introduced drm-checking printers under same model name and number so the previous good reviews stay
