Last Notes npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 @nprofile…xawl farmers view John Deere the way we view Microsoft & Oracle. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 it's certainly one of the upsides to #OpenSource. @nprofile…v8fv alone has helped keep tons of useful but vendor abandoned hardware out of the recycling bin. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal I spent a good bit of last week visiting the "Pennsylvania Dutch" Amish area of PA here in the US. I have to admit, avoiding technology, having a smaller carbon footprint, and living more simply has its attractions. I wish you all luck in finding the balance that works for you. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 and they are having a Dev Summit @nprofile…u6wq : npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal This "Passenger Assistance" photo I took feels more like an art installation than simple example of vandalism. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…u76z the one on the right would like to know where one would lodge a formal complaint please! npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 for your sake, I hope your datacenter does not think like that! npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 [Q:] Will you now use this to shame the datacenter into getting a faster pipe? npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal Just because you don't see them in the news as much, doesn't mean they are not still active. This is from a group not far from me. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal Call for GitHub stars: npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…u76z have they been enjoying the diet upgrade? They seem to like it. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal I would like to formally thank whatever tech-deity was involved with having that network switch die this morning and not while I was in the thick of BSDCan. I owe you one. For the record I could have handled it, but this morning was just a better time. Be well folks and best of luck getting back to your regularly scheduled programming. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 oh that looks tender. I hope it healed well. Good luck with your projects and we look forward to seeing you again soon. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal Happy Pride to all who celebrate. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…cck4 I will be checking out those books. Thank you very much. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal Did you ever take a picture that looked like it could launch a SciFi story? npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 thankfully that story is far in the past, so far the box he wanted admin on was WinNT! Enjoy the weekend. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 overly entitled people breaking things out of careless ignorance is a sore spot for me too. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 very much so. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 almost as bad as spinning SSDs! But more difficult to prove. I had a son-of-the-owner situation where I wouldn't give him Admin on a box and he tried to force it. Only to call me back at 11pm later that same night saying it was "having trouble". npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35. It's funny how people can keep repeating their request like it is some magic incantation because they don't fully understand the situation. I have a friend who is stuck with a "friend of the owner" designer who fancies himself an engineer who is throwing vibe coded slop at proper engineers and when he gets pushback on the slop accuses proper engineers of "not knowing how to code". The project must be done I. The next fortnight, so either the slop coder goes or the project does. I will keep you informed. That arrogant "friend of the owner" spot can be difficult. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal That is some serious ' we are gonna nap so hard' energy there @nprofile…u76z npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal Have a good weekend folks. I wish you time with that old song you just couldn't play loud enough years ago. And I hope it still holds up for you. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…u76z how long will this injustice go on?! npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…u76z Fermier, not taking any chances! npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal Subway seller of street art I spotted on the way home from NYC*BUG npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal TFW: you take a vendors .vmdk, convert it with qemu-img and spin it up in FreeBSD Bhyve (thanks to you @nprofile…uxxv ) and the vendors guy says " I've always been interested in the *BSDs" npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 ouch! That is NOT good news. I hope they get an opening in their schedule and can move your appointment up. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal $dayjob is forcing me to touch systemd. I am so glad I have avoided to this point. Next step, move this system off systemd. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal @nprofile…vf35 I look forward to it. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal I don't know of anyone having a great start to 2026, and to be honest, I would be very suspect of anyone who is in this current environment. That said, I wish you fortitude and strength in this weird time. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal Power to the people. Everywhere. Authoritarians everywhere are overdue for a comeuppance. npub10lwyh9mc87m756ehdst20lwh4ap869wnm2fwskg432cmucyt8lwsshr7ey bsdtv_personal Whatever you celebrate this time of year, I hope it is a fantastic celebration and that 2026 is good to you.
