Something to consider then!

I'm currently using the AQIA brand Bluetooth temperature and humidity sensor for my basement. Aqia is just rebranded Tuya products sold via microcenter but they work fantastically for my purposes.

Not sure what you're looking at but I'm using aqara's Bluetooth devices, and it's working without a hitch. Worth considering Bluetooth devices and a Bluetooth bridge if the device you're looking at has a Bluetooth version.

Not just where they want to live but also how. Don't forget the amount of responsibility Ninny's and HOAs have in denying new houses or more dense housing. Most neighborhoods for instance ban any kind of Multi family housing because "iTlL rUiN tHe ChArAcTeR oF tHe NeIgHbOrHoOd"

That's a fair way to think about it and I think I'd agree with you on it's better that someone is on Linux even fedora than Windows but for myself I'd take windows over fedora. Appreciate you engaging respectfully.

It's new to me, reading up on it now. Seems cool given the goals and it's the OG CentOS guy. I wasn't the biggest CentOS fan, but I liked it more than fedora for sure. It does still have similar issue like FHS violations but given it's not a redhat product I'd be more willing to use it.

Layout of where they put their files had (the last one I actually had to dig into a fedora system) multiple violations of the FHS. I'm very big on standards since things work well when you're not violating standards.

Obviously, people don't have to follow the FHS and redhat definitely doesn't but doing so gives more of a nice consistent experience to any technician, sys admin or sys engineer.

Not sure if anyone else will think it's good enough but I do.

Redhat as a company acts like a parasite on open source, producing a product that is garbage which they then charge money for their support plans. Have an issue with their offering? Fuck you. In addition to that, I absolutely beyond a doubt HATE how they do their filesystem and just willy nilly do whatever the fuck they think is best instead of following community established patterns and designs. Top it off with, who was the first to adopt systems? Redhat.

Stepping away slightly from that, have you dug into ansible's internal before? Actual fucking idiot decisions. Have an issue with tower or AAP (stupid fucking name) good luck getting it fixed. According to their documentation you can have vaulted vars in a cars file with plaintext cars. According to reality, that's causes intermittent failures and has for the past 8 years. There have been SEVERAL GitHub issues submitted but it's still not fixed.

Fuck redhat and fuck their bullshit like fedora. If I wanted to use a garbage distro, I'd at least want to use one that isn't pretending to be decent.

I promise you, they absolutely will treat it as equally valid input data.

Not wrong there, it's one of the things that makes me critical of genai

I won't say that AI is the greatest thing since sliced bread but it is here and it's not going back in the bottle. I'm glad to see that we're at least trying to give it accurate information, instead of "look at all this user data we got from Reddit, let's have searches go through this stuff first!" Then some kid asks if it's safe to go running with scissors and the LLM says "yes! It's perfectly fine to run with sharp objects!"

The tech kinda really sucks full stop, but it'll be marginally better if it's information is at least accurate.

 

Let's post about our current runs!

Are you doing vanilla? Modded?

What's your goal? What are you finding interesting?

 

I could use some help. I find my company making more and more changes that have a negative impact on the wellbeing of the tech workers such as myself.

The company has a union but it's not for the corporate workers. I would like to start a union for us techies. How can I achieve this? I've spoken with people I'm comfortable with about unionizing and have received favorable feedback. Who can I reach out to?

 

There was a very recent post requesting a defederation with lemmygrad.ml.

The post was requesting it due to a large amount of anti Israeli posts and celebrations of the deaths of Israeli citizens both military and civilian.

I've checked the modlog in hopes of understanding why those actions were taken, but no note was left. I'd like to ask why those actions were taken. Thanks!

 

Dive yes!!!
