  • I had a really insecure young manager who was almost half my age. Guy was a chickenshit. One day, while he was out, we reorganized our desks so that we'd not have our backs to the hallway. Instead, we turned our desks 180 degrees so that our backs were to the wall. He came around and said "well, this layout is not in accordance with the open office rules". I paused for a second, looked at him and replied "Oh really? No shit! How cute..." And proceeded to ignore him solemnly.

    He didn't do shit. Was eventually let go for complete incompetence and negative reviews from every single one of his employees.

  • You can still read the contents of the directory because you have -r on it. If you just run ls foo you'll see your file on there, no problem.

    However, without -x you cannot read metadata in that directory. That's why all information about the file shows as question marks.

  • So what pisses me off in these cases is this: they didn't contribute with the data. They're a convenient aggregator, I give them that, but the data came from third parties. If you want to start charging for convenient access to the data you should at least make all data before you started charging available in a bulk download for free.

  • How did you manage with video performance? I don't game and have had a lot of experience with both vbox and kvm. Kvm performance for video is excruciatingly slow. It got to a point I said "that does it" and went back to vbox.

  • Where I live all street lights used to be low pressure sodium (very monochromatic yellow!) Due to a nearby observatory. Now to hell with everything! It's LED lights everywhere. They're strong and not diffused so all the light comes from a small area meaning instant after image... (Sigh)

    Even worse, people now put LED lights on their outdoor house fixtures and all kinds of office buildings pointing UP. Goodbye night sky...

  • I'm in the same boat. The thing that I miss with i3 is a way to layouts. I like my windows mostly fixed but if you close one, everything needs to be redone. Oh and there's no way to work without stacking and tabbing...

  • I like tailscale and have been testing it for a few months. I'm also using headscale as the control plane.

    Unfortunately the android client is somewhat unreliable. It works most of the time but once in a while, connections to your tailnet will fail for a bit and require retries. If you ping a machine in your tailnet during this problem, it will show packet loss and then start working after a few pings. This unfortunately makes it difficult to have a reliable split DNS setup.

    I've done everything to try and understand what happens without success. It seems like state is lost somewhere and a few packets flowing will fix it. Running a constant ping from Android to my tailnet "fixes" the problem, but is not a great workaround.

    Just something to keep in mind before you jump headfirst.

  • I can't for the life of me understand how these people think. A no vote for Biden is a vote for Trump. Simple as that. Now I'm not excited about Biden but I prefer Biden 100x over Trump and the right wing Christian militia.

    It's a choice between someone who will slap you in the face and someone who will shoot you in the groin.

  • Wut? Blue? Are you sure about that? Afaik the peak is around 555nm, yellow green. Why do you think we have "high visibility yellow" vests and not "high visibility blue?"

    IIRC 555nm (or whereabouts) stimulates the L and M cones simultaneously.

  • I have to say my faith in signal has been shattered since I got crosstalk on a signal conversation. I still can't imagine how that's possible but it was there, clear as day.
