Schools have budgets decided by board members who are elected by the taxpayers; and taxpayers don’t like tax hikes! Thus we have the orphan crushing machine.
What a beautiful boy 😻
Keeping you two in my thoughts ♥️
Modem Mischief popped up on my feed recently when I was looking for a podcast about Stuxnet. It's pretty decent, its dramatizations can be a bit much at times, but it seems thoroughly researched and it has a lot of cool stories about early 90s civilian hacking, which are my favorite. The pentest stories from Darknet Diaries got pretty old.
I just listened to a podcast about him. That's crazy. What a legend, so sad to hear.
This is currently me and my dad who’s been a Linux sysadmin for over 20 years.
My website/blog is in the cloud but anything that needs local storage or internet access (everything else) is virtualized in a container on proxmox.
This happens to me on Instagram and it makes me want to commit atrocities.
I got boxes full of Pepe!!
Thank you! His sister is named Carol (from HR) so it was kind of perfect
Same. I'm using a 2012 Mac mini running Proxmox attached to an OWC Thunderbay 4. It's old but does everything I need it to do.
The smooth black parts, yes. The gunky/bumpy parts on the handle, no. That comes from years of continued use and improper cleaning where new oil polymerizes over leftover particulate the next time it’s cooked on.
But I wouldn’t recommend a dishwasher cycle as the method to use to strip your pan either. Self cleaning cycle on the oven should take care of it.
Amateur data hoarder here; teach me your ways
I use Arch for my desktop and a container or two just for funsies. My website runs on Arch actually and never had had any issues with either that or my desktop. Debian is what I typically use though for my containers like Plex, photoprism, etc. I've heard people say Debian can be harder than Arch. I'm still mostly a noob so idk fit certain but I've come across things where Debian didn't work but Arch did. Thought it was interesting.
I was in art school when Tumblr was at its peak. Looking back it was dumb, just resharing pictures and gifs but I had so much fun. I met so many people through Tumblr that I'm still in contact with.
I see people listing things I've never heard about...I thought I had spent a considerable amount of time on the old sub and knew stuff. Guess I gotta hit the books.
Right now though I'm hosting everything on a 2012 Mac Mini that's running Proxmox.
Been using these programs for awhile now:
- Photoprism
- wireguard
- web blog testing instance while the live one lives on linode
- plex
- filebrowser
- pi-hole
- homepage
Nothing crazy but cool stuff to learn in my day to day. I want more hardware but I'm about to buy a house. It's crazy how much I'm throwing at an 11 year old computer and it's handling it all quite well.
Same. I've been diving into Linux and open source and self hosting lately anyway, and at the same time you're telling me open source social media is a real thing and gaining in popularity? Count me in.
When I first started driving I inflated my mom's tires to the number on the sidewall and I still cringe thinking about how I probably almost killed myself with an exploding tire. I got home and I asked my brother if it's supposed to take that long to fill up and he freaked out and we let the air out and he taught me the very valuable lesson of checking the placard.
