Yeah I get the idea in that sense. It’s just that you are putting a lot of trust in the source. But I guess that’s the same with qr codes but at least you get to see the destination in your camera view.

Yeah, I’ve never understood the URL shortener idea. It’s like a box of chocolates. You just never know what you’re going to fudge into next.

Sounds more like it became a trojan horse.

I got to watch this! I didn’t know it existed!

Also, check out The Offer on Netflix. It’s about the making of the godfather. Was a fun watch.

I think they meant it like “plain ol’pepperoni pizza”

I might try walking away from the screen for the whole weekends as my new year resolution (for different reasons). My eyesight is starting to fail and I think a 2 day break from the screen every week could help.

Never heard of it. But I’m not going to let pedophile spy on my family so hopefully it doesn’t get traction and become relentlessly invasive like google

Apparently performs as router and firewall distro. I have no idea what possessed me to install that at the time over 10 years ago. But in any case, bad on me for blindly trusting an unknown source and bad on them for a dick shit design.

But I know one thing is for sure, that name is pretty accurate. A lot of my own “IP” was torched.

During my distro hopping phase of 2011, I tried out a distro called IP Fire. It wiped out my whole drive on boot.

I still have that laptop, hoping one day I’ll retrieve that data.

That is a shitty design and for an outfit a big as Microsoft, I feel that it is intentional

I’ve always despised their naming schemes. I always thought I’d they ever started a car company they’d name their vehicle make as “car”.

At least Xbox is original but now I’m sitting here wondering if they bought it off a small outfit

Good explanation. I’d say that’s still a lot of processing for our noggins to quickly adapt to a framework of mind to comprehend all that to make sense of it.

I still like the name and it does make since after it’s all spelled out.

For clean separation and keyboard use.

I don’t know if i3 is the best tiling manager but it’s the one I use and I like it. The reason I like using the tiling manager with tmux is that I never have to use the mouse. I have a different environment in different each window.

super+1 is main tmux development area.

super+2 might be remote server tmux area.

super+3 might be development browser views

super+4 might be my Qutebrowser with documentation texts.

super+5 is note taking apps.

super+6 libreWolf for regular browsing, etc.

And I can have multiple things going on in each window but all I have to do is press super+f to make a tmux session (or whatever app) full screen. For instance in super+1, I might have one tmux, session for local development and one for the incus server I’ll working in.

In tmux I have over 10 different sessions going on. So I can quickly go to any number of apps I’m working on or to my utils session where I do most of my cpu checks. One session is just for browsers I keep open so I can keep track of them easily and/or kill them quickly with Ctrl+c. This has the added benefit of always keeping my tabs saved when I open them back up.

In my tmux app sessions lies nvim which is a great ide. I keep one tab window open for git doings. One for backend nvin instance. And one for frontend nvim instance. Then one open for the server and other terminal related stuff. Another for database.

Just makes organization easier.

Arch -> i3 -> terminator -> tmux -> nvim.

Nvim is IDE and vim for quick edits.

LXC/incus and podman containers

Usually use Debian for server administration but have recently been using fedora and rocky Linux and other rpm based distros for their easier use of podman configurations (quadlets). I don’t really recommend using fedora as a server (unless it’s in an incus container) but I got into it as CentOS was deprecating and the podman systemd setup was catching on at the time and fedora was handling it the best at the time.

Dropped out of GitHub for the most part and getting acclimated with codeberg and forgejo.

Use librewolf for browsing and firefox-developer-edition with many profiles for testing and development. Qutebrowser for reading documentation.

You actually get stupider using rails. This is a fact.

Use codeberg where possible

Yeah but why feed the beast?

If you can’t make nuclear waste disappear them your always have a waste management problem.

To convince you to keep paying for git
