PaloAlto XDR portal - *Right-click for options on a line... fine... But wait, if you hold option/alt, you get even more options. I get the need to define which options are less common choices, but you should not be hiding things behind click-modifiers. The only people using the XDR interface will be advanced users. If a user doesn't have authorization for a command, then don't show it. If the option is destructive, then confirm with N number of dialogs. Also, the ENTIRE user interface is in italics.*
Admin interfaces should never have hidden options.

Workaround: Manually disable DoH support for DNS Security using the set deviceconfig setting dns-over-https enable no CLI command. Alternatively, you can remove the DNS Security configuration used to handle DoH traffic.

Tell me this @npub1hn2…kl6z
Why does HA rely on BROWSER timezone to display data that should be local to the homeassistant instance?
Example: I am in GMT+4 checking on my home in GMT-8. I want to see that my Lights turned on at 1800h local time to my home. I dont need HA telling me that my lights turned on at 0600h browser time or whatev
The HomeAssistant settings have a place for me to set the instance timezone, so all times related to that instance should be related to that instance.
in short, RFP in browsers is causing timezone havoc because of some weird reasoning why you feel the need to fuck up timezones.

A minor annoyance, all screws are stainless. My magnetic driver has no effect. Nice build quality I guess.
I just want to boot an OS so I can see WTF the dataplane board shows up as in LSPCI

Booted an opnsense iso .. nope

shitpost: I'm old enough to want to buy a lawn, a mower, and get excited about lawncare. I have had enough internet for the day.
not shitpost:
I think I got in to computers at a special time in the history of the things. First was PCs with games brought home from the local computer store. 12MB of ram was hot shit. Modems were opening a wide world of other computers via the BBS. Having a neighbor with university unix credentials to connect to the internet with lynx and then tcptrumpet / winsock.
Never again will computers be as awesome as that time in history. I am glad to have experienced the knockdown wall texture flat grey webpages with under construction barricades. I am glad to have been a part of geocities. I was so excited to buy something on ebay with a postal money order.
Witnessing the decay of the internet to it's current state... I can logoff now (forever) and not feel like I'm missing out on anything groundbreaking. I don't think there will be any new innovation in my lifetime that won't be #enshitification of once beloved products.
Pour one out for the internet.
