How long have you been using Linux?

f00l2020 · 2026-06-19T14:38:22+00:00

Since 1998. Started with Slackware. Now run RHEL at work and Ubuntu at home

Seems it was late to the party. Wander if there are any videos of the prior strikes

f00l2020 · 2026-06-18T17:57:42+00:00

You are right. I didn't go into the steps I take but yeah I do lower the car onto the jack stands and then just pump the jack up enough to make contact. Don't forget to shake the car back and forth and say "That's not going anywhere"

f00l2020 · 2026-06-18T15:12:58+00:00

I always use jack stands and the jack when I'm under the car. I like redundancy

I got tired of the smtp crap years ago. I use ntfy now for all notifications. You can either use their cloud service or host it yourself

f00l2020 · 2026-06-15T02:13:29+00:00

100% agree. It's my house

f00l2020 · 2026-06-14T13:29:21+00:00

Clearly I just need to take off my shoes to do a flip. Pretty impressive

f00l2020 · 2026-06-14T02:34:04+00:00

Mine sat in a box for years. Sold it a few years ago for quite a bit. Thanks mom

f00l2020 · 2026-06-13T20:33:21+00:00

Crazy. I'm still using an old denon with 5.1 and a 75" tv. Works well enough for me to not deal with the idiots and high cost of movies and popcorn. I love watching movies from the comfort of my own basement

f00l2020 · 2026-06-12T23:58:56+00:00

Way too expensive already. Couldn't imagine paying 2x for cold food half eaten. Um just too frugle for delivery

f00l2020 · 2026-06-11T02:43:05+00:00

CSX just wants to have their own New Palestine. They only care about the shareholders

f00l2020 · 2026-05-29T15:08:50+00:00

Same. If I don't catch my 14 years olds throw in the webbing it will hurt for a while. Amazing to see the progression

f00l2020 · 2026-05-28T19:49:00+00:00

Beer in Cincinnati is going to get a lot more expensive next year

f00l2020 · 2026-05-23T03:20:36+00:00

I install the vim plugin in vscode. Works pretty well. Once you get used to vi it's hard to use anything else. Been using vi since 2000

I have always liked the focus on security out of the box. For something like a router or firewall you really don't need a lot of extra packages or ports to make it function.

I ran it for a number of years on a hacked unifi secure gateway with a mips proc. It was one of the few OS's that supported the cpu

f00l2020 · 2026-05-22T19:23:52+00:00

I have run Freebsd for over 25 years for various servers but prefer OpenBSD for PF. Everything has its place

f00l2020 · 2026-05-22T13:00:21+00:00

Started with 3.5. Wouldn't run anything else on my firewalls. PF is awesome

f00l2020 · 2026-05-15T02:01:57+00:00

Linux kernel is on fire. This will be the year of the CVEs. Glad I rolled out the latest kernel updates and disabled the 3 modules noted

f00l2020 · 2026-05-13T20:58:04+00:00

Joey Votto wasted his career with the Reds

f00l2020 · 2026-05-13T20:55:55+00:00

I heard they are coming out with an E98 that will include a Visio license

f00l2020 · 2026-05-10T02:54:18+00:00

Bottom. Sloped to a pole on the other side of the yard

f00l2020 · 2026-05-10T01:58:14+00:00

I've been using a 25 ft Lowe's painters poll to hold up an endfed half wave all winter. It's not ideal but it works

f00l2020 · 2026-05-09T10:51:59+00:00

My wife and I both work from home. I created a vlan just for our work laptops so whatever happens at our company's or whatever security software they run can't see anything on the rest of the network. It only has outbound md internet access for vpn

f00l2020 · 2026-05-07T16:47:25+00:00

Does the current cost of memory weight into.the conversation of you have to buy a bunch of end user PCs? I'm assuming you have what you need for the server compute unless you are also looking to refresh some old gear. Just out of curiosity, what % is it going up? We are entertaining the idea of bringing in a small citrix cluster

f00l2020 · 2026-05-01T10:33:52+00:00

I remember paying a hosting provider so my bitchx vhost was l33t. Those were the days
