I just set up Unraid and it's so, so much more than I expected it to be. I had no idea it had this whole docker app ecosystem. I thought it was just some big NFS drive pool share server. I replaced Proxmox with it but I haven't do

Github makes you do a ton of goofy side work to get simple things you'll expect in Gitlab/etc to work. Want to check out multiple repos? You'll need someone with org admin to create a service account and to manually pull each

If you do a lot via right click they nuked it, but you can add it back in. The fact that I can't right click the taskbar to open Task Manager without getting that horrible full screen "LOG OUT/SHUTDOWN/OPEN TASK MANAGER&

I don't work for $bigcorp and 60% of the apps/things I need to log into to do my work (like my github) are on other profiles that I wind up adding to each profile. I mostly need multiple AWS/Google logins and things of that n

Yeah, I know, thanks for the downvotes. That's a ridiculous UI compared to Chromes. Also have you ever tried migrating profiles before Sync?

I build this stuff so it's so cool to read this, I can't really be public about my stuff. Are you using completely custom firmwares on your Mellanoxes? Do you have plans for nvmeOF? I've had so many issues with kernels/f

Wild, I just went through the pain of automating all my org labels today and it was a huge bummer to not have scoping. I'm doing "Type: $var" etc but I know it'll look terrible compared to scoping. Going from Gitlab to g

Or you store your notes in another method (online, remote ovier ssh/rdp) so they're not plain text files accessible to anyone. Some local note apps store them in dbs that would require auth, etc. I just think this is a huge pitfal

In my experience nowadays Uber drivers are just Taxi drivers who started Ubering in their own cars. I was thinking the other day how I used to get mints and water bottles and maybe a conversation. I get that about 5-10% of the time nowadays

AIM was all my IRL friends, I met a few people from IRC over my 15+ years on it but ICQ and IRC were "internet friends" to me. AIM was huge when I was in middle/hs in the late 90/2000s.

A texan? I didn't buy anything below a 20* sleeping bag until I started camping in the desert and even 20* was super low for TX, most go with 40. I've got a -30 now but I never knew they went that low until I needed one.

Yeah, when businesses are shut down throughout the world and people are being evicted and living off of their 401ks why would you be concerned about a potential paycheck possibly coming. Very insignificant, jobs are.
