Jebus. I never even suspect lennart's people metastasized into there too.

French too: il pleut. What is the il pointing to?!?

1. Plan well in advance
2. Be offsite. No pizza parties in the break room.
3. Give people the choice (goof off or work; no holiday) with a sign-ups in advance.
4. Company pays all fees 100%. Bus/Uber to/from work or nearby as possible so people can maybe not bring their car.
5. Go-karts and laser tag and escape rooms and pirate river cruises; take ideas and then vote well in advance
6. if 2 people go, 2 people go. They hobnob with the boss over the snack break and talk about the excellent discussion after. Even if it's just talk about cats because we're here to build teams not debate ticket DEV371819. 6.Vote on new ideas periodically like every few mo. Keep it fresh. If someone sees a good idea, make sure they know they should suggest it and everyone decides when/if it goes into the queue because the suspension bridge is f'n awesome.

I can guarantee that the 4th monthly field trip will show the Fibonacci numbers going up. Be okay if no one shows. It'll improve.

Movies are a fun and easy goof off. It allows everyone to self-group so they can talk about Janice in Accounts and how she stole my leftovers. Also left-handed bowling is just dumb enough that people will go ironically and accidentally have fun.

I'm surprised you held out this long! GoDaddy has had waves of stressing, and departures in correlative droves.

You show remarkable resilience and you can be proud of that.

YOU WIN

Flatpaks are a really bad idea.

Docker free version?

You don't hate email; you hate BAD email. Probably broadcast junk.

GOOD email is private Bank statements over a provably secure e2e transport marked clearly for filters (with a JSON section for import automatically; am I right?). It's "here is a new copy of the plans." It's "Dear Aunt Helen."

Every now and then, although I know and support the alternate position for reasons I think have been shown as obvious, repeatedly, I sometimes think a 1¢ postage for unsolicited mail - okay, make it a buck - would be okay... IFF that could be figured so the recipient would be assured of getting half. Make it cost; make it pay.

No no, hear me out. Unpaid transit charges for unsolicited bulk email by the person owning the domain is now inter-region or international wire fraud, and the people making a habit of it will build up enough that they'll warrant action. Ergo, make it financial and maybe we'll see cops raiding scam shops.

That's the dream anyway....

As quiVadisHomines says, too, the 90's '90s net was a simpler time; but I think that was because it was well-backed by schools and even then mostly unknown -- September Effect notwithstanding.

Is it capitalism or just the tribe-too-large problem? Both, where we're not united enough to socially correct the behaviour that would be knocked down sooner with a smaller group?

Anyway, I miss the enforced simplicity of no-images/rare-images Usenet, and how it highlighted the writing and the ideas.

It's beyond me to dream up a suitable Usenet replacement, but I know for sure that FB, IG, Lemmy, they're solving a different problem.

Watch this thread from here on in carefully separate the idealists from those who know what defence is like.

• yes, open-source is the goal of everything that can be opened.
• no, defence code isn't on the list of what can be opened
• yes, obscurity isn't good as a sole effort
• yes, defence in depth
• no the funding to get it to where it's safe to open for randos to submit changes isn't there today

Anything I missed?

Yes, Virginia, it's better to open all the things right now, but there are risks you haven't taken into account because you're not aware of them. The pros are; it's their job and their work, so listen to their expertise no matter what the oppositional/defiant disorder suggests otherwise.

You'd think it would be galvanizing.

so fetch

No words, no readers.

Weird. Ms Smith hasn't pivoted from denigrating the R.o.C to proclaiming the greater need for her aid over every other effort, yet. This is a little slow for her.

They had Mulcair, a great and charismatic speaker with a penchant for dunking on Harper in the house, from the 'right' region of Canada. They went another way.

They've had all their power removed through a vote. They now can

• make noise
• wait for an opportunity to get the ability to do a-ny-thing else.

That's it. Right now they're doing both.

Shitting on the first investigation of its kind is really weird encouragement. But, you be you.

TRS-80 model 1 level 2. 2k RAM. Tape drive. BASIC.

Saved up for an apple II gs after that.

Boot times.

I love how you chose one of the prime advertised features of The Cancer -- and my rhel6 could boot faster than rhel7 every day.

By comparison, Systemd feels like jumping on the back of a charging gazelle and hitting it with a salmon in the hopes it'll go the other way, all the while it's bleating and emitting and defecating from its regular port and a whole new journald port of its own choosing. And often tripping.

Runit has been solid and fast. I've seen it on several projects - I want to say alpine and proton/vm and gitlab's own weird setup - and it's never let me down. I wish rh could have seen that instead like I wish they picked James over Mike for automation.

Switched to systemd free distro the day after.

PCLinuxOS?

Tell me more about how lennart's cancer killed your machine too.
