Incoming lawsuit in 5…4…
Reminds me of that great classic:
Table for 26?
But… You’re with 13 people.
Yes, but we like to sit on the same side of the table.

Pros and cons of breadbox? Any paladins out there willing to enlighten us?


And A-women too 😁


Thank you for your service. I mean it.


Nothing personal, I try to correct this view everywhere I see it.
Y2K didn’t happen because a lot of talented engineers worked their asses off to prevent it from happening. It is the bane of IT people everywhere that the working state of the systems they create and maintain is being taken for granted by the public, with barely a thought givem to those who fight bugs, spam, cyber attacks and pure entropy every day. It is in fact a minor miracle of engineering that we’re even having this conversation.


Now I want an “Yo momma is a singleton” t-shirt 😂
Inside of you there are two wolves. One looks like a fox with owl makeup and the other like a puck-nosed shepherd dog with strabism.


That’s… surprisingly accurate. Every time he sees her, that’s a new instance of the abstract Wife in his head, which is different from the previous instance in small, but interesting ways.
For instance, current_wife.HasFood() returns true.
Which fucker moved the garlic rope and opened the coffin of Nazi eugenics theory?


Not to mention that the “more and better teachers” mantra should be applied all the way down to primary education.
Unfortunately our societies prioritise these things differently.


I’m not excluding hiring good teachers and TAs from the picture. I’m not excluding paying them a good enough wage to attract talent either. But that’s another conversation.
In my university days lectures were paired with seminars. And those had a max size of about 30, and a TA who would explain and help apply the lecture knowledge. The lecturer would visit seminars on rotation and ensure the quality of TAs. And the kicker? The whole gang would be there for the (free form) exam, including the grading.
In short: it can be done because that’s where we come from, actually.
And personally I hate multi choice tests, there is no opportunity to see the thought process of the student, or find and be lenient towards those that got the theory, but forgot to carry a 1 somewhere. They simplified the grading, sure, now you can have a machine do it, but thats about it.


Here’s a novel idea, maybe it needs less students per teacher. Or more teachers per student, however you want to call it.
Hint: only one of these comes with a so-called golden handshake.


Lots of dynamic DNS providers allow you to register a aubdomain and update the IP it points to with an API call. You can use something like this tool for it: https://github.com/lopsided98/dnsupdate - just run it on a schedule on the same machine and you’re golden.
There are also Docker container based solutions if you’d rather go that route. Once you have a stable entry point, you can decide what to do with it.
I would personally get a Raspberry Pi and run Wireguard and Dnsupdater on it, use port forwarding in the router for Wireguard and close down everything else. Then share the Wireguard connection details with your friends and family. You can even set it up so that Wireguard connections are only granted access to your Jellyfin server, plenty of tutorials out there on how to configure firewall rules on the Wireguard machine.


I would laugh too if this wasn’t going to be a major influence on US policy towards Ukraine in the coming months.
I do not, but I sleep soundly knowing there are people that do, and that FOSS lets them do it. I will read code on occasion, if I’m curious about technical solutions or whatnot, but that hardly qualifies as auditing.
