This would be what I would recommend as well.

Access is also an option as well. I think LiberOffice also has an Access like clone as well

Pacmanlives ,

Interesting it’s only cost me about 40 dollars a month to host a bunch of sites right now. I think I can consolidate them down to one server and be about 10-15 bucks a months. I am not hosting any pictures right now thoug, which can add up

Pacmanlives ,

Accidentally installed Gentoo instead while sleeping. Fuuuuuuuu

Pacmanlives ,

Always SDelete in Windows and scrub in Linux

Pacmanlives ,

Yeah, I would say he has stayed in line with Finnish politics based on how I know of them

Pacmanlives ,

I mean how many people are gonna be walking around with card rw

Pacmanlives ,

They are really some “torque” converters. Really know their way around a shaft if you know what I mean 😉

Pacmanlives ,

Geewiz I bought my my car to play Steam game!! /s

Pacmanlives ,

I read this as grandma sending you “furry videos” the first time. I was like what?

Pacmanlives ,

And weird liquor laws as well. Epic Brewing has a beer called Escape to Colorado because they could not make it in Utah. Also love that state it’s so pretty

Pacmanlives ,

Colorado actually went thought a similar thing about 7 years ago. Could only buy 3.2 beer at a grocery store. Every grocery store had a liquor store close to it so not a big deal at all

From what I remember it was supposed to be a simgle use vehicle that they kept using.The CF worked great those few time but would eventually wear out because of stress fractures. That's what I remember from when the accident happened so I could be wrong.

Pacmanlives ,

Can’t wait to inspect that source code

Pacmanlives ,

Does it have a replaceable battery and can I still use it as a murder weapon and place a call afterwards? Asking for a friend

Pacmanlives ,

That’s a paper plate and not proper china. If it is the raw deal shoot me a link and I will order myself some rubbing and touching I am racing here plates

Pacmanlives ,

Tuxmachines, distrowatch, osnews, slashdot, ArsTechina, I have some BSD ones too I follow along with some security ones

Pacmanlives ,

I skimmed it and it definitely aimed at a late middle school/ high school kids

Ask: How do you handle your résumés?

Usually I rely on my network & haven’t needed this kind of document in ages, but I’ve been tasked with creating a résumé for myself. I’ve grown more privacy-conscious every year & I think it’s weird that we are expected to give out so much information about ourselves to companies that lie about their culture & don’t...

Pacmanlives ,

Yeah, always had fun in the job skills section for people. I worked IT for about 15 years doing what I was hiring for. I was just looking for basics a lot of the time, for what they put down on their resume. If it’s on there I am gonna ask about it.

Have git on your resume I am gonna ask about pulling, pushing and branching. Have Linux I am gonna ask how to grow a disk in it and basic shit you will run into as a sysadmin. Networking I am gonna ask someone in networking because that’s black magic lol. I had a CCNA at one point but never used it but I know when to pull people in

Pacmanl
Its been about half a decade since I have done it. I high recommend a separate disk for /opt/ and install your apps there or do symlinks to /opt for your applications an for the love of god just use LVM on the whole disk it makes things so much easier since you dont need to delete the MBR and recreate it.
From what I remember its something like.

  1. Grow disk in VmWare to the new size
  2. Run 'rescan-scsi-bus.sh'
  3. pvextend
  4. vgextend
  5. lvextend
  6. xfs_grow or whatever FS your using

If you add disks to the drive every time to expand it 10G your a trash admin IMHO. I have seen server that had like 20 grows like this and its unmanageable to figure out whats going to what mount point especially at 3am. I have had to rebuild a lot of servers that where like that from prior admins along with a lot of their fuck ups like compiling software vs installing via RPM just because devs asked for a never version then the supported version in RHEL. Security got really pissed in those events. Containers actually fix this problem in a lot of ways compared to the old ways we used to do things 5-10 years ago

Pacmanlives ,

Indeed, the Unix philosophy was do one thing and do it well. ls just list directory’s and files it’s not a network manager too. Systemd crams a lot of extra shit into an init.d/rc.

I still prefer the old system-v/openRC setup or BSD’s setup. It’s simple does 1 job and does it well. But I can work with systemd just fine in creating scripts these days and it does have some nice features like user startup scripts baked into it and podman integrates very nicely with it.

Pacmanlives ,

Past few times I have tried it. No drivers in Denver. I will keep trying but they need more drivers and this is not something that happens overnight

Pacmanlives ,

Just wait till you have 1200+ packages to upgrade. Luckily OpenSuSe Tumbleweed handles it like a champ

Pacmanlives ,

Or Bob the boomer goes can you go back 3 slides?

Pacmanlives ,

Man all the down votes on this one 🥹😅🤣😂😂

This person is doing gods work

what will be my next server operating system (Fedora Server, Fedora CoreOS, NixOS), your experience and opinion

I want to reset my server soon and I'm toying with the idea of using a different operating system. I am currently using Ubuntu Server LTS. However, I have been toying with the idea of using Fedora Server (I use Fedora on my laptop and made good experiences with it) or even Fedora CoreOS. I also recently installed NixOS on my...

Pacmanlives ,

Give Gentoo a shot. It’s super stable and you will understand everything in your system. Also it now supports binary packages

Pacmanlives ,

Huh?

Pacmanlives ,

I mean it’s had -k/-K since mid 2000s from what I remember but it’s changed

https://lwn.net/Articles/956428/

Pacmanlives ,

Seems to be working in Hollywood films for the last 20 years

Pacmanlives ,

We have been thinking about doing this as well. I am also tempted to try installing Pixelfed and see how that is

Pacmanlives ,

Interesting idea. I signed up for the waitlist. I keep considering hosting my own email server but it’s a huge pain in the ass just like BIND can be

Pacmanlives ,

I am rolling a few Gentoo VM’s these days and it’s really not that bad to compile things these days and I am on an old ass (10 year) dual Xeon setup.
I remember X taking a few days to a week to compile back in the 2000’s

Pacmanlives ,

This problem was already solved in the 1930’s with the 5th wheel in the rear of the car

Brute force protection

@memes

Pacmanlives ,

I remember in college editing OpenSSH source code to instead of return wrong password to a root shell prompt just to stop brute force attacks

Pacmanlives ,

Oh all of my configs are deny root ssh login or without-password. I noticed a significant decrease in scans when returning a root prompt when I did that. This was also in the mid 2000s so who knows how things would be in this day in age for a reduction in scans

Pacmanlives ,

Correct

Pacmanlives ,

Awwww my GUI stopped working again after an update

Pacmanlives ,

Typically monthly or quarterly patching depending on severity and DMZ exposures. When log4j or shellshock hit it was patch once the patch was released and tested

I am getting called a hero! Other than that orbital strike I called down on my entire squad….

Pacmanlives ,

I disagree unless there is a way for me to share my library with other people with out putting my Jellyfin server in a DMZ or exposing it ports to the internet. There is some security things I am worried about and feel like Plex is better. And I run both

Pacmanlives ,

That is if they are aware of it. How many time do you just hit accept on a TOS agreement
