League Of Geeks Makes Over Half Its Staff Redundant, Jumplight May Never Launch

Jump

  • In UK nomenclature being made redundant, rounds of redundancies, and layoffs are used interchangeably. A percentage of the workforce loses their job because of circumstances outside their control.

    To be fired/sacked though, that very specifically means you did bad; you failed to do your job.

    It's probably similar in Australia?

    • Does anyone know where to get Steam Link?

    Jump

  • It's in the app store on the quest itself. Source: I installed it from there earlier on my Q2.

    • You just finished setting up all your services and it works fine - how do you now prepare for eventual drive failure?

    Jump

  • If you've got a good network path NFS mounts work great. Don't forget to also back up your compose files. Then bringing a machine back up is just a case of running them.

    • Sailing Arr seas and the Usenet oceans

    Jump

  • What Usenet provider/s did you end up using?

    • Running Signal Will Soon Cost $50 Million a Year

    Jump

  • US tech wages are just nuts. In the UK I'm basically maxed out for a non-London based software dev at about £70k ($87k). Meanwhile I have a friend who has managed to land a job with a London based US tech firm on about £120k ($150k) which is massive for here but reading this is still a long way off what is possible.

    • 🚨 It's time to fire up those seedboxes! Preserve human knowledge FOREVER by seeding Anna’s Archive torrents 🚨

    Jump

  • It seems the majority of the torrents with poor seeder count are in the 1.5TB+ range. I just simply don't have the storage for that. Most everything in the 0-300GB range is pretty well covered.

    • leng - a fast DNS server with adblocking, built for self-hosting

    Jump

  • Reads nice but your docs are 404'ing so I can't investigate much :D

    EDIT. Found it. You've got a '.com' instead of a '.io'.

    • Imgur and Mastodon ?

    Jump

  • Mastodon doesn't just use storage for local image uploads. It pulls, thumbnails and saves images from any incoming posts, including the thumbnails you might see on website links (pulled from the opengraph data most websites implement)

    It's possible to set a pretty short timeout for that data though.

    • GTA 6’s Publisher Says Video Games Should Theoretically Be Priced At Dollars Per Hour

    Jump

  • I enjoy low priced games as much as the next person but I'm inclined to agree. At least a little.

    In terms of currency per hour some games are outright bargains when you compare to a cinema trip and yet the triple A's cost more to produce than your average film.

    • Resetting Hue Bulbs

    Jump

  • Yeah, a standard hue remote lets you do it. I can't remember the exact thing but it's something as simple as holding the remote next to the bulb with a button pressed when you turn the light on.

    • It's made of girders

    Jump

  • Oh yes. But I felt the attribution helped bridge the Canadian gap.

    • It's made of girders

    Jump

  • That's what I was after but I guess the "translator" did me dirty. It's a direct replacement for "fuss"

    • It's made of girders

    Jump

  • 😉 It's meme's all the way down.

    • Proxmox running TrueNAS and NextCloud or Nextcloud on TrueNAS via Docker?

    Jump

  • I looked into Proxmox briefly but then figured that since 99% of my workload was going to be docker containers and I'd need just a single VM for them it made no sense to run it.

    So that's what I did. Ubuntu + Portainer and a shed load of stacks.

    • New instance: issues subscribing to beehaw communities

    Jump

  • Mmm. The issue in this case is that it appears it's only beehaw communities that do it. Everything else is working fine.

    I've unsubbed/subbed quite a few times now. No change :(
