The canonical method was with a kickstart, and if it looks like too complex, remember you should have one stashed in /root already that you just need to mod.

Normally a kickstart is a bit much, otherwise, though. I use a suite of tools but the best one I used was a simple virtual package to bring in the ot8her, drop configs in and start daemons. We did this in like 2001 to great effect.

Absolutely this.

While lawsuits seem to drive the American economy, maybe we don’t all have a lawsuit fund to go alongside our medical expense account, because we’re too busy paying for housing and heat and light and food and gas.

…and maybe we shouldn’t feel like the credible threat of a lawsuit is the only thing keeping people in line.

The USA is not a democracy

This question is not relevant: you’re not voting based on how the country is now, or was last week. You’re voting based on how the country should be, each time. You’re picking the least-bad leader out of a small set of options, based on whether they’re even marginally better.

In this case, a LOT of alternatives are better than the current setup, so I don’t understand the dilemma.

…thus, the suspicion about trolling.

Should I vote Republican to slow down full blown let it all hang out fascism because I don’t want to vote Democrat?

1. Evolution means choosing the better option in each case to invoke slow but important beneficial change
2. Harm reduction is a great short-term strategy
3. There’s absolutely no reason to ever vote the elitist racist party of kiddy-diddlers
4. If you’re feeling like not voting, or voting in a way that harms people for no gain ever, then you may be a victim of manipulation by the conservatives so you don’t vote against them. They’re good at this.

Questions asking whether someone should vote in a way that causes harm can sound like a trolling question. I’m sorry if other respondents treat it as such.

Is the CI/CD still a faithful clone of github’s worst-in-show setup? Because if I had a plan for ditching GL, the CI keeps forgejo from being a contender.

There is a community edition but serious users will run into its limitations

No true Scot, then?

I’m running gitlab implementations at a few sites. I’ve not seen or heard of any performance limiter with a self-managed community edition that removes a tool the others still provide.

and it does not integrate neatly with external solutions.

Again, this sounds FUDdy. Which ‘external solutions’ are you using that a git-push fails on? Some spaghetti of saas tendrils seems to be already a risk, but I can’t think of any other external thing that it could mess up with.

it’s no one’s business why people choose to abort.

This. The only answer to “why” is “fuck off”, and for so many reasons. It’d suck to agonize over the decision, and once it’s made to then be second-guessed by some rando.

Dood. Boot times are useless ‘flex’ metrics more influenced by processor and disk speed than init systems. My el5 and el6 archive systems boot faster than my el7 ELS system, which itself is faster than el9; but not by enough to matter when you’re booting every week to a month. It’s never BEEN an issue.

Compare complexity: Has your init system metastasized over the entire host and re-implemented (poorly) other core systems, so long-dependable features just simply don’t work, and everything has its own rinky-dink silly-walk to configure instead of /etc/fstab or /etc/exports, instead of staying in its lane? No? You’re good. Diversity and specialization will give you excellent results and security. Yes? You have systemd.

There’s your comparison.

made due

made do?

Wow. I didn’t even know they had that trial yet. I’d hate to be accused of something that severe, but I’m glad we’re still letting juries decide instead of the mob.

Not a word yet. It may never be a word.

But it’s so sloooowwww

shear

“sheer”, here.

The smartest guy I ever met - dizzyingly smart - coded virtual memory management replacements for Unix from putty on windows.

Is that guy elite? Are you being elitist?

1. Win31 sucked
2. I needed a modem terminal for my 386.

I wrapped the trade-offs here https://cxgo.ai/l/pti2J6s

The link goes to some wall of articles, none of them obviously about immich. Is there a better link?

Ai spend

If the ‘journalist’ uses salesbro jargon, the only thing I want from them is a deal on this used Buick.

Doood. npm in production is a bad pattern in this age of supply-chain sploits. Best vendor that into the artifact when ya ship … Nevermind.

8Gb of ddr4 is $25

Ha! My 32g was $600, so 6x that.

Hard works were valuated.

Hard work was valued

… a huge company. The less I work, the more I’m paid…

I’m sorry if you’re in a position where laziness is either overlooked or tolerated. The concern is, although you may think you’re getting away with it and are living an easier life, you are part of a very visible 3% at any workplace, no matter the size or type of business; and even if you do not notice it, your peers will notice you if you are not doing your part, and it will affect your experience as you are either shunned or corrected, even if you’re protected from job loss.

And once you lose this job, you may lack the proper work ethic to allow you to succeed through a probation period at the next. And you’re not getting younger, and after 45-50 getting the next job gets harder and harder due to ageism.

You want to find a reason to get a better work ethic. You need to learn why your work ethic is not a reflection on your workplace or society or labour movement membership but a reflection you that you will carry forever. You’re 40, though, and if you haven’t learned why that’s important the. I can only wish you luck in the years ahead.

I’ve worked in labour unions and cruel dotcoms, and I will tell you I’ve seen the same results for indolence and laziness, and there’s ultimately no safe place to not do your part forever.
