I would put that more on the ad networks, if the ads were related to the article, it may generate a few more clicks. The ads are completely random and built off a profile they assume would contain relevant info about me… but it doesn’t really seem to be accurate (this is kind of by my own choosing though).

Instead articles about rebuilding cars should have ads related to perhaps rebuilding cars and not some fucking nutritional supplement or some other unrelated thing.

Damn man, I was on a streak (totally joking while kind of being serious).

Thanks for the source though, I still don’t get it but I’m also still using the same ringtone I used when my son started school (he’s in college now).

It stands for New Technology File System from back in the Windows NT days, like NT 3.1 in the early 90s (my brain always thinks of Windows 2000 NT when that was really like NT 5).

I think I prefer your definition.

Yeah but I never found a way to do whole disk encryption with a decoy OS like TrueCrypt could. Really I don’t have a need for that, but it was an amazing feature in my mind.

I never manage to absorb anything in a pre-0900 meeting. That first chunk of the day is for me to catch up on all the shit that happened since I was last there (personal opinion).

Kuschel Song by Schnuffel, it honestly just makes me think about a simpler time in my life when I didn’t realize just how much I had laid out before me.

I have used both but just started using jotty (jotty.page, github link on the bottom). The SSO setup with Authentik was seamless and it seems really snappy so far and the Dev seems active and involved.

I personally like to use a proxy for that like NPM (a handy dockerized nginnx proxy setup). Not as secure as a VPN but I really like being able to access my stuff from anywhere I’m likely to be. I’ve combined it with a few other things to try and add simplicity (in use) and a little extra privacy by using Authentik for SSO. My main goal with the use of NPM though was to limit the number of ports I had punched.

I scrolled for a while looking but didn’t see, “Not the momma!”.

I believe 1-800-COLLECT was for MCI.

I know you aren’t here looking for suggestions but give gparted a try. It has a nice GUI and if you are used to disk management in windows, the only major difference in finding your way around is selecting the physical drive via a dropdown, instead of seeing all the physical disks at once.

That makes sense! I always forget about those types of salads lol. Thanks!

I feel like he might be referring to Miracle Whip as it is (or at least was when I was paying attention in the 80s/90s) sold as “salad dressing”. No clue why they called it that but it was a cheap alternative to mayonnaise that had a tangy zip.

Now I have real mayonnaise made with eggs in my house (my mom was always weirded out by non-refrigerated egg products).

Yes indeed! There are a lot of tricks old Windows admins still hold onto to get stuff done and sometimes it’s so damn frustrating (like resorting to BITS to move files at times).

My Windows skills are slowly leaving me… and I work in a Windows environment. Thanks for the words of confidence, given how long I’ve been the computer guy I guess it’s a bit of a shot to the ego to be real about it at times!

Thanks for this! I’ve just got mine setup and will set up the SSO tomorrow. Seems like exactly like what I’m looking for, you rock!

Edit: just wanted to add, setting it up in authentik was insanely easy and worked perfect! Thank you for what is really an awesome piece of software!

I got a ‘dangerous site’ warning and then prompts for crap on my Vaultwarden instance (didn’t see it on Immich but this was a while ago). I think I had to prove I owned the domain with some DNS TXT records then let them “recheck” the domain. It seems to have worked.

I’m in a similar spot, my closest teammates are about 80 miles away and everything is over teams. My only solace is the fact no one works in my building so it’s really quiet (almost too quiet at times).

Edit: Solice and solace are different words

I write really dumb powershell scripts. One throws up a GUI with a picture of a wizard holding a magic 8-ball, clicking the 8-ball gives a random response from a list of responses. It was kind of fun figuring out how to store images in the script (just went with base64)…

Its always a fun way to guess if the meeting with M$ is going to be beneficial or not.

After reading your comment I had to do more searching and I guess they did actually use it in America… For the bike that I never saw in person, made by Life Fitness.

Edit to add: Now I wonder if I’ll ever find one now that I’m looking
