Nope.

It’s uncommon, but not unheard of. It didn’t sound weird to me in this context.

It’s pointless and stupid is what it is.

It’s the way that word has been used for over 20 years.

I never trust a programmer who has any “strict rules”.

We’ve been quite successful up to this point.

Gas, frankly, could’ve been much, much higher lower were it not for our efforts.

I’ve been wrestling with this issue myself recently.

There can be both performance and other issues with a db whose data files are on nfs. That said I’ve done this for years without any real problem. No db corruption so far - but it’s a possibility and I’ve probably been lucky. I have good backups just in case.

Like you I also don’t want to maintain a “pet” database on my file server. I want to spin up databases in kubernetes pods and not use local pod storage.

I’ve been investigating using iSCSI instead. It’s “block level” rather than “file level” and performs better with a database. Also none of the locking issues mentioned. It’s a recommended way to do remote storage for a db.

The downside is that it’s less resilient to the file server becoming unavailable.

Might be worth investigating for you as well - I’ll be performing some poc tests to figure out how much of a pain it may be (I don’t want to need to fsck a bunch of targets after a file server reboot).

why President Rapist Pedophile ISN’T the problem we should be focusing on…

You’re fucking joking? If that was your takeaway you’re definitely reading things through “rawwr I’m angry!” glasses. It neither what I meant nor what I actually said.

oh. and NeXTSTEP’s came out in '88…

And the apple menu was already in the top left before windows 95.

When Hitler invaded Poland you’d be the annoying guy saying “it’s a distraction from the Beer Hall Putsch”! And you’d be doing it again when the concentration camps were discovered. Horrible people do lots of horrible things.

Nobody is saying we should forget the Epstein files or not hold Trump accountable. But for the love of God stop saying the other horrible things are a distraction. It’s so stupid - at least rephrase it as “don’t forget about Epstein” or something less dumb.

“Quackery” is the proper term

I’m going to put aside how easy art skills are to develop if you actually try

I see - you’re not being serious. Okay.

Your “submission” is little more than trolling. An insult to anyone taking the idea seriously. It’s much worse than somebody who actually put some thought and time into using an AI to create something they genuinely believe would be a good image but didn’t have the art skills to make it a reality.

AI produces the purest blob of lowest common denominator,

I think you need to take a good long gander at some of these submissions. 🤣

This is so ridiculous.

The only people I routinely find using AI are republicans and my illiterate friend.

Did you seriously just “you must be a republican and therefore are wrong by association” me? Good lord…

I think the submitters took that as a challenge and proved you wrong 🤣

Those dogshit images are a vast improvement to AI.

Omg no. 🤣

This is the worst collection of copy/paste things on lemmings… It’s like a museum of early 2000’s blog banners.

My biggest customizations are all of the software I install and use to do things with the computer.

Wait… So if Linux doesn’t have the api (sorry, the “signal” 🙄) how will sites that require it respond? What does it mean to be “exempt” - every user is considered to be an adult?

An alternative to complete cloning (which gets out of date fast) would be to manage systems with ansible.(or puppet, or chef).

You can script configurations, package installs, users, etc. And it also allows for hardware/architecture specifics when needed (e.g. drivers for the different platforms).

You would then just install a base os and run your playbook. No need to store gigs of data and easier to update the base os to newer versions. You could even mix

You can also push out changes without needing to snapshot a new image and re-install it everywhere.

This is “corporations add dirt cheap sugar to drinks making people addicted to poison for cents per liter” vs. “there simply is sugar in a pressed fruit”

Which is almost identical to what I said.
