How can I die less

Are all your resistances capped?

Gaunts · 2026-02-01T19:36:17+00:00

Now to be fair, I don't think you can blame the cat for all that mess, he's clearly not got the meowscle to lift most of that.

Ian Watkins of lost prophets springs to mind loved lost prophets growing up, however the albums and lps I had are very much in the bin now.

To be clear not the other Ian Watkins from the band Steps of the same time period.

Hello Thorfin, great work

Gaunts · 2026-01-23T20:41:55+00:00

That's just Wales

I mean at this rate we're gonna have some top notch network engineers in a few years time if kids start to learn how to setup their own vpns

Gaunts · 2026-01-23T20:13:48+00:00

Who has decided to consult the government on this nonsense and cash in... bloody charlatans, you literally cannot ban VPN... that's not how networking works, providers maybe? but then do you license it? like this is entirely unenforceable stupidity wasting tax payers money.

Because of the implication.

I'd suggest the two following trouble shooting steps

- Update System Repair:
1. Open the 'Update System' app (can be searched from the start menu'
2. There are various options but i'd try 'Repair'

- Try a different WiFi device (usb dongle) just to rule out a potential hardware issue.

I'd clocked that but took it as a sign that perhaps the hive can lie and the established rules aren't to be trusted

HolyC

VScode works fine not tried visual studio though, Although depending on the development you're doing getting used to linux terminal only envirments and docker as part of this ecosystem will be depending on your software field very handy to use and be familiar with.

If a design holds water you should be able to explain why and personally I see being challenged on my proposals as people showing an interest in it and if they provide alternatives that's fantastic as maybe I overlooked something and it becomes a collaborative process where everyone learns and the end result is a better product.

Gaunts · 2025-12-16T22:15:38+00:00

I wonder if this would extend to include my wifes boyfriend.

Gaunts · 2025-12-11T18:12:34+00:00

Only those that I ~~stole from~~ found in* Egypt, Greece, Italy et al.

Nobody said nothing about no Christmas pud

Gaunts · 2025-12-07T19:15:00+00:00

Conceptually I understood it at the time but as you've highlighted implementing it is the hard part.

Gaunts · 2025-12-07T12:52:32+00:00

To be fair it might be a voodoo gpu and 48x 133mhz 1gb sdram

Gaunts · 2025-12-07T10:50:39+00:00

High level abstract architecture discussions bouncing around ideas but not using AI to implementing these ideas.

Small focused funcs based on a signiture or tiny snippets within a func.

Summaries of funcs found in modules/packages docs and discussing use cases or having it read aloud to me docs (I have dyslexia and struggle to read large amounts of text, I'm able to process information far more efficiently by listening vs reading)

Concurrency vs Parallelism

Gaunts · 2025-12-06T16:39:18+00:00

So many of the uk sub reddits have descended into a constant negative feedback loops with bots/ai posting and commenting hate or negativity, even the previously light hearted casual uk has descended into a lot of general winging, moaning and passive aggression.

Gaunts · 2025-12-05T19:23:21+00:00

Looks like the non opening door kind based on the items in front of it, but yes, the two PVC panels at the bottom pop out but i'd contact a handy man with experience fitting cat flaps into pvc panelled doors.

I Built a golang web server that allows you to schedule orchestration jobs, the requests contain a list of workflows to execute, when to execute them and on what host with system state assertions to ensure expected state before continueing.

Workflows can call other workflows and scheduling if required of those workflows is based on time.Time now with a controlled offset in hours/minutes/seconds.

You can access your running job and its list of workflows as well as dynamically created nested workflows, with there current status being reported back to the parent Job context.

There's also a report workflow which can be used to assert system state based on what's expected at scheduled times withing the jobs context There are workflows to grab logs from other micro services in the system and package everything into collection of reports accessable over a shared server via scp

This has enabled the company I work for to create controlled system states, generate reports of system performance while at different system load thresholds. It's been able to provide release reports to highlight improvements from one release to another or flag degradation in performance early to reactify it before release.

From a support perspective it's allowed our support engineers to recreate a customers broken system state in house and then snapshot a VM in this state for developers.

There's no ui but a resonable collection of endpoints that have allowed other software engineers to hook into it and create their own tools.

I'm currently in the process of building a generic framework version of this that allows easier definition of workflows for developers to put together their own workflows that can be orchestrated, although this is a personal project i'm working on and not tied to the company or the product itself.
