Regrets aplenty after some of the things I’ve drank, but none of them are about Debian.

I always wondered, why don’t they just move the deer crossing signs to less trafficky areas that are safer for them to cross?

“If it’s hot outside, we can raise the price of water and ice cream.”

Dude actually said that out loud. Wild. Teach me how to give that little of a fuck.

The red means it’s not cooked all the way. Better be safe…

How do these things not have unbrickable A/B firmware partitions by now? Even I have that on a $2 microcontroller. Self-test doesn’t pass after an update? Instant automatic rollback to the previous working partition.

I’d love to comply, but unfortunately the last time I tried Windows 11, my Ethernet and WiFi quit working and I had to roll back ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ how do you screw up something as basic and necessary as the internet connection?

I wonder what the aim is. Trying to get relevant again? I haven’t used Winamp in many many years. I’m a Spotify / YouTube kind of guy now. I drank the koolaid. It’s a little late and things like VLC have a pretty solid offering now, without all gotchas that this will have (such as you apparently can’t call it Winamp and will have to sign away a sacrificial child to actually get the code)

I like my Kubernetes setup at work. It runs Nextcloud, Mattermost, GitLab, company website, several embedded firmware OTA update sites, a few internal apps. Nextcloud was pretty easy to install on it with Helm, just a single command line and a yaml file to specify domain, settings, etc. I had some teething issues in my early setup where the database would get wiped inexplicably, but it’s been running smooth for years now. (Yes, I know, bad juju running databases on Kubernetes…I’m used to it and it mostly works)

Well, then, they ought to drop enough dirt for me to patch it. You think I carry stacks of dirt around with me all the time?

My ringtone has been the same one for the last 15 years, Cowbell Rock. I paid for it twice, once when Ringtone Feeder was a thing, and then again from iTunes. Worth it. Best ringtone ever. Would buy again if I could.

The internet is not ready for me

A little slower by today’s standards, but if your needs are light, it’ll do the job. Keep in mind it only has a gigglebyte of RAM, so its capacity for running things may be limited, especially as docker applications go (since they bring a copy of each dependency). You won’t be able to run something as large as GitLab or Nextcloud, but a smattering of small apps should be within its capabilities

I’m not so sure. I seem to be able to find my way around a GitLab project in much fewer moves than a GitHub project. But maybe I’m biased because I use it all the time at work. I know they change the sidebar a lot, though.

There are dozens of us! Maybe we should find or start a siren community on Lemmy. I just don’t have time to moderate, or I’d do it…

don’t dead open inside

I had to close my bank account to cancel mine. I moved and didn’t want to head all the way back to go in person to cancel. They wouldn’t accept a cancel request online or over the phone. Why is it always gym memberships that want to be next to impossible to cancel?

Proud GitLab self-hoster here (for private projects). I’d love for someone to beat GitHub. The hard part is going to be replacing the discoverability and the network effect. I find GitLab to be a superior product, technically, but it doesn’t matter much in the face of GitHub’s momentum as the incumbent 800 lb gorilla.

Star Trek TNG x Minecraft

That could be fun

He’ll be warm for the rest of his life, and won’t need any more help, sounds like a win/win to me!
