Why is your name red?

When I first started out with Linux, I went full ricemode with Arch. For a while I tried running without X, using tmux heavily and browsing with lynx, only starting a specific X server for games.

You can definitely do it, but especially web browsing is not really feasible. There are tons of curses-like applications like mutt and irssi that work really well, but alas, I ended up going back to i3.

Still heavily riced, though, using Vim hotkeys wherever possible. For browsing, qutebrowser is fucking sweet!

I don’t think you have to be goth to like goth chicks

My point is that words are part of languages which change very fluidly, and you could make the same argument for hundreds of other words.

If the word isn’t considered bad by anyone hearing it or anyone it describes, nothing is wrong with it. Many meanings are different between your language and mine, even though they sound alike or share some etymology.

I genuinely have multiple friends who use that word about themselves. It isn’t negative unless people perceive so.

That must be it

Just a language thing, sorry. In my country this word does not have any negative connotation.

I rest my case

Handicapped people might disagree

I would just have Postgres running statically on some solid hardware. It’s easy to configure permissions and connections, too.

Not too hard to set up streaming replication for a hot standby if you wanna be sure (or offload some reads).

I use Postgres btw

Had to get some metrics out of an old Cisco box that weren’t available through SNMP, and the only solution I could come up with was to periodically SSH some commands and regex the results.

That required way too much shell-foo and the SSH daemon would just randomly refuse/drop connections.

If only there was some kind of standard metric API that every other modern software supports out of the box…

Postman is literally the only GUI I use for development, except for a browser I guess. Everything else is in terminals/WSL2 at work

Is this your first attempt at emoji pasta?

Cisco and Juniper CLIs are terrible imo… Why won’t they just use a proper modern set of tools instead of their own proprietary shit that doesn’t interface with anything else?

Nope, you’re right. AC uses a lot of power, and 1000W of solar panels would take up at least 5 m2. You would need around double that if you’re gonna run solely on solar power, too, as well as a big ass battery bank.

The guy in the video is using a 5000 BTU unit to cool a small room, though, and manually switches to grid power during the night. Would definitely save money.

If I had a house with plenty of space, I would definitely make the investment.

Never again…

One is a rate of data, the other is an amount.

Mbps means megabits per second.

MB is just megabytes. You can of course turn it into a rate, but then it would be MB/s.

There are 8 bits in a byte, so 100 Mbps would be 12.5 MB/s (divide by 8)

I never played any Souls games before Elden Ring, and while it was a bit frustrating at first, I came to enjoy the exploration quite a lot.

It’s not as hard as people make it up to be, as you can mostly just overlevel a bit if you hit a wall. Some of the boss fights suck, though. They feel unfair at times and I felt a bit lucky to beat some of them when they just randomly don’t do the hard-to-avoid combos.

The exploration is what makes the game for me. The universe and atmosphere is spot on. Trying out different weapons and builds is a lot of fun once you get to around lvl 50.
