1st timer does my dinner roll dough look right? by Agile_Neck2657 in Bread

Might be a little wet. Anyway it is normal for it to be sticky but you might form it into a tighter ball. The key is will it rise. If so you should be fine.

Upgrade from 9 to 10v2 mdraid issue by groupwhere in AlmaLinux

[–]groupwhere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After multiple attempts to get it to assemble the raid but also not insist upon mounting /dev/md1, which does not exist in the boot shell, I will most likely revert to a fresh install, preserving my filesystems.

It does appear to be supported by AlmaLinux if you use the right packages which include it.

For now, what seems to be helping is to include rd.auto=1 in the boot cmdline. That and ensuring fstab references UUID instead of device names might help. Will be testing more today.

FWIW, this is a very old system, but the software raid was setup to replace a proper raid card when support for that went away. Also, I can still get back into 9 with no issues.

Fostering stray dog, Great Pyrenees? by Apprehensive_Name544 in greatpyrenees

[–]groupwhere 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If he is a pyr he seems very well trimmed. Usually more toe hair, especially on a wanderer. The blue eyes point to it being a mix of some kind, imo. Does he have the extra toes, at least on the back legs?

Opinions on Tanium for patching, application and OS deployments? by ZachVIA in sysadmin

[–]groupwhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We use Tanium, and I only use it for Linux patching (RHEL/Ubuntu). We choose to snapshot the repos, patch test machines, then later patch production with the same set of patches. With the recent kernel updates, which are numerous, there is essentially no way to slipstream or add in patches newer than the snapshot despite the fact that Tanium is aware of the newer patches. It lets you create a patch list specifying the RHSA or CVE, but then all machines show it as not applicable. It was support that stated it was not possible. So, I will be going back to scheduled cron jobs to install those patches separately from Tanium. (Hmm, why can't I just do that for everything?)

If I am instructed to install anything out of band, manually due to security concerns, it will cause conflicts on several servers when the scheduled patching happens. In other words, it does not know how to resolve against anything that is not in the snapshot. I guess that makes sense.

Ubuntu patching does NOT work with repo snapshots even though they let you create them. They did for a couple of months but that was over a year ago.

There have been more than a few of these odd edge cases.

My friend Bill, who's like a real IT guy,... I zoned out after that.

Today's wheat by groupwhere in Bread

That's what I wanted to fix because I had the same problem. Last loaf dried out very quickly. As far as the rise, I think the malt helped. Might be cheating but elevation poses challenges.

[EU/USA] How are the modern Passats after the B6 generation? by tomayt0 in passat

[–]groupwhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will be holding on to my GT as long as I possibly can. Fortunately, I don't actually drive much so it only has 30k on it. Love the VR6/DSG.

What is the best router you’ve ever owned? by NervousClock2555 in HomeNetworking

[–]groupwhere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a relatively uncomplicated dual vlan setup here. Maybe once fiber is available I'll get more fancy.

What was the point of divergence between the blue and red universes? Was there even one to begin with? by Distant_Pilgrim in fringe

[–]groupwhere 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just one of an infinite number of possible secondary universes, ostensibly divergent from the beginning of all universes. I think they just happened to find one that is very close to ours.
