My comment was not about suffering, war, starvation, or anything of the like. You've clearly added your own context and then judged me for it. Great job.

Facebook for a couple things, IG for keeping up with friends, sharing pics with friends. And a carefully curated YouTube subscription list. Only stuff that's worth watching: People I can relate to, have no ego, and are just having a go

The answer isn't headless WordPress. It's WordPress. You're building something for a volunteer community, which means at some point you'll be gone and somebody will be wondering how the heck to manage the site with this

When you find the right employer, your personality won't be a barrier, it'll be an asset. Wait for the right fit. Do you . You're the only one who can do it as well as you do.

It worked fine, no regrets. It's more stable for outdoor use, so that is why I went with it. I've printed exclusively with PETG.

I built a Hadley, and it's pretty amazing. I have seen the rings of Saturn with it- and the moon- WOW. Here's a video I did about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NA076d-gsyY Also wrote it up on my website, whi

Yes, it's a religious website, but it's also the site with the most languages of any site on the 'net, at 1100+ right now. Some of them are downloadable content only, most are web content as well. The translations are done at

Yes, but does it make that magical spool-up sound of a 5MB ST-506 trying to sound like a jet turbine? ST-506 startup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7ImJwSmjzs T-53 startup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v

For me, the problem is that if I don't see it, it doesn't exist. Slack, server monitoring, other communications channels, they all take up real estate. My daily driver is a 43" 4K monitor. Basically 4x 24" 1080p monito

I am actively looking into an Oculus 3 for a virtual desktop environment that I can use portably, such as in an Airbnb, instead of lugging around a 43" 4K monitor. I'm also looking at projectors for this purpose. The context is re

If the real job doesn't match the interview, then it's the wrong job. Simple as that. I once took a position at a company that I had known because they were a customer of my then current employer. We'd always gotten along, th

Back in the earlier days of web hosting we'd run into this with Apache. In fact, I have a note from 2014 (much later than the early days actually): ulimit -n 10000 to set permanently: /etc/security/limits.conf

He was a good man, no doubt. Troubled, which is why he died before he hit 60. That was almost 25 yeas ago, and I still miss him all the time.
