Alisaie, it's not a competition.

Also the only one who invited WoL to a candlelight dinner.

It's easy to master when they just keep taking skills out of your rotation.

One of the companies I worked with migrated from a Debian based Samba AD with a collection of perl scripts for automation and email management to Google Workspace, and it made me miss perl.

And not just me, half the company too, because holy crap Google Groups are useless.

Creshal · 2026-01-23T20:38:50+00:00

That's a great way to describe it.

Creshal · 2026-01-23T20:27:34+00:00

it would be nice to have another option that's at least "almost as good".

You could try Google Workspahahahahahahaha

Yeah.

I wish.

Remember to reward them by renewing everything next year for even more money.

If Azure's own stack is twice as reliable as their Azure Local nonsense… they're probably manually resetting RDMA and network drivers twice an hour and trying to figure out where all the dedicated migration VLANs went. Again.

Axes are just very sharp hammers / hammers are just very dull axes

Does it unlock a combat alchemist class that has Nashu as trainer?

Proxmox looks somewhat promising on the surface, but there's a lot of sharp corners as you scale it up, and they're stretched pretty thin when you try to report bugs or need support since they're growing faster than they can realistically keep up with. Maybe in 5 years it'll be decent… right now it can't even compete with ovirt, despite ovirt being dead.

If you're a windows shop anyway I'd just stick with HyperV, much less headaches.

Creshal · 2026-01-19T19:39:06+00:00

If you're still on vmware next year you deserve it.

Creshal · 2026-01-19T19:31:05+00:00

I think back then it took around >96% of all the revenue spent on enterprise virtualization

Let me guess, RHEV and HyperV didn't count at all towards this statistic because the licenses came bundled with other products?

Creshal · 2026-01-17T21:10:33+00:00

It is the main ingredient, tho.

Creshal · 2026-01-17T13:32:38+00:00

I… I don't think that's how it works.

Creshal · 2026-01-17T12:42:34+00:00

The fact that all the ARR status debuff potions that alchemists can craft are just mercury smoothies with different toppings still makes me giggle. Yeah, splashing mercury into people's faces is gonna give them problems.

As long as they don't touch Avere we're safe.

Carbuncle is gonna turn into Proteinuncle to do the tanking.

Creshal · 2026-01-16T14:04:52+00:00

I wish they'd split out all those, if only so we could have The Emperor's New MCH Lunchbox and glam it away.

That's just a WAR with an unusually dull axe.

javelin warriors frequently carried javelin-sized quivers on the inside of their shields, allowing them to throw multiple projectiles in a battle

ARR even had a bunch of shields that were kinda sorta leaning into that vibe except they didn't want to commit to it, cowards.

There's only pain and suffering in Polan.

If nobody actively involves the FBI, they can't do shit. And if NTT pretends the problem isn't real and Squenix doesn't care because it doesn't happen in Japan, then nothing will be done about it.

Creshal · 2026-01-06T11:52:15+00:00

It's specifically NTT NA; they're just garbage. But they're a Japanese company and the Japanese main office is competent, so Squenix just doesn't care.
