For my friends in Colorado who like dogs, or who have friends who might have got a puppy.
For the whole time we've been keeping records, fewer than twenty unvaccinated people have survived rabies. (Not percent: twenty. people.) If you or someone you know was there, get treatment NOW NOW NOW.

Gelato split? Oh hell yeah.

What if Santa Claus was also a private detective?
This is a fun series, and I'm eagerly awaiting this next one.

Halloumi says that it's super hot out and you should chill as much as possible. Listen to the old guy. #rats #petrats

I have 41 datasets. not per package, but one per database, one for each set of application data, one per virtual host.
Anything that I might need to snapshot is a dataset.

@npub1u3f…nne2 for packages, yes. but different OS use different packages.
I run ZFS, so I use a LOT of datasets.

@npub1u3f…nne2 super dependent upon your virtualization system, sorry.
personally, I installed a FreeBSD system and used zfs send into the jail I wanted it in.

Same. I spend a huge amount of time figuring out WHY things are the way they are.
Another reason I've found surprisingly often is "It wasn't supposed to be this successful, this was a personal toy and it took off." OpenSSL is the textbook example here.

"Dovecot considers connections from the local host secure. If you test the STARTTLS requirement from the host running Dovecot you’ll find it accepts plain text credentials. It refuses unencrypted credentials from other hosts, however." #ryoms
I just spent two hours learning this detail. Two hours of screaming "WHY IS THIS ACCEPTING PLAINTEXT VIA NETCAT FROM THE LOCAL HOST???!?"

Question for people hosting their own email:
(I am not interested in "running your own email is impossible," "email is a lost cause," or other comments from folks who are not running their own email.)
What hosting provider do you use? Bare metal or VM? #ryoms #sysadmin

Just realized I've been a full time writer almost nine years now.
Weird. Stunning. Bizarre.
Still no idea how y'all let me get away with this.

plus: if it is not in the ToS, it is not binding.
Discussions around a contract are irrelevant. Only the contract matters.

I sent a box of Mrs Fields cookies to a funeral back in 2020. (Everyone sends flowers, yes, but I'm weird and snacks are useful.) They signed me up for their mailing list, I unsubscribed.
Silence until yesterday, when they auto-resubscribed me. :flan_rage:
