  You turn off the breaker. You plug your generator abomination into a receptacle. Your partner checks the panel – the breakers are off, it’s safe to work with the electrical! They kill themselves.

  You could just not be a threat to yourself and people around you.

  I can also just use stock android and assume they work. Sometimes y’all miss the forest for the trees.

  Except when it doesn’t. It can have issues around multicast dns.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do so many people use NGINX?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Caddy’s developer gives me the ick. He’s way too pompous in PRs on GH. nginx is just a constant – it does exactly what you need to and does it well.

  If you THINK you might be the victim of an attack like this, you’re not going to be a victim of an attack like this. If you KNOW you’ll be the victim of an attack like this on the other hand…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you encrypt your data drives?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Anyone who says yes is either a professional in a field already requiring it (is aware of how to do it and what it means), retired (has unlimited time to tinker), or is Edward Snowden. For the average person, you don’t need to encrypt your disks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft's draconian Windows 11 restrictions will send an estimated 240 million PCs to the landfill when Windows 10 hits end of life in 2025⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You definitely want to go the truenas route for a media server.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla starts shipping $3,000 Cybertruck tent, looks nothing like what was unveiled | Electrek⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is proveably true since Rivian offers similar gear and those actually work. And they didn’t reinvent the wheel so existing truck tents just work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Struggling database company MariaDB could be taken private in $37M deal⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The nice thing about MariaDB is that you can use it in place of MySQL for WordPress. AFAIK there’s no official way to do the same with psql.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what's the highest increase in salary you've had or seen?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m happy at my current job but know I’m underpaid. Not to toot my own horn but I’m pretty sure I’m un-fireable short of like an HR issue… This sort of scenario definitely makes me think twice about leaving / stirring the pot.
