Do you have time to talk about our Lord and Savior FACTORIO? Here; just have a quick taste.
- Comment on Why is it ok to replace -ed at the end of a word with -t in some cases? For example, why are "vexed" and "vext" both acceptable, but "thrilled" and "thrilt" aren't? 1 day ago:

I see what you did there.
- Comment on Ansible sounds interesting 1 day ago:
Please, for the love of god, look at other things instead of Ansible.
Definitely do openTofu for infrastructure and deployment, but for configuration of VMs please learn about puppet, saltstack, chef(cinc.sh) and especially mgmtConfig .
Ansible, by comparison, better matches what we were doing in 2002 at 1/10th the speed, and it’s like pascal levels of wordy.
Learning about options and finding one that works well for you will often give you a much better experience than fucking Ansible.
If you do abandon all hope, though, then go ahead and do Ansible; but remember if you do: there are better options, and hating Ansible doesn’t mean you hate automation.

- Comment on Do you actually audit open source projects you download? 4 days ago:
I maintained an open-source app for many years. It leveraged a crypto library but allowed for different algos, or none at all for testing.
Some guy wrote a CVE about “when I disable all crypto it doesn’t use crypto”. So there’s that. It’s the only CVE we got before or during my time.
But even we got one.

For those unfamiliar, Open WebUI is a self-hosted AI interface, which you can use with local models with Ollama, OpenRouter, etc.
How is this simple summary missing from the project page itself? What that so hard?

That 56 sparks street, Ottawa, right?
Mamadou Ndiaye - aka Casual Geographic - needs to come here and do so, so many new Hinterland Who’s Who eps for us.
We should give him a new passport as part of the deal if he wants it. He’s like a national treasure for more than a few nations.

- Comment on “How you design the beep is important.” Behind the movement for calmer gadgets. 1 week ago:
I have a work phone and personal phone and they both scream at the slightest news.
Newer app versions don’t heed the “fuck off and shut up” mode when I put the phones face down. So they get a time-out part-way through the day when I’ve had enough of the “every beep more jarring than every other beep” mentality: I throw them into the next room.
This calmer initiative sounds like a godsend.

Old man shakes hands at clouds.
I love the ageism in this “but you’re just old” defence. It was comically bad when your parents told you to wear your seatbelt, and it’s weak now.

You sure? We do not applaud the tenor who cannot clear his throat.

1987 here, I think. Started at c$3.65 , but minimums moved to $3.80 the next week and so did I.
Red poly tie, red striped button-down poly shirt, black heavy cotton-poly pants. The company supplied them, but I had to replace any pieces I wrecked.
People bitched about the button shirt vs a sloppy pullover jersey, but it was easier to clean. Ultimately I saw a preference for the dumb button-downs.

My uncle used to tell us “fat kids are harder to kidnap” and we didn’t understand the joke even when we’d arrived at the ice cream place.
