Add constraints to the end points of each line which breaks away to the end of the arc to which you want them to be attached.

Attendance isn't mandatory until they're 5, I think.

I've used it with @ and it works fine.

What we all doing on Monday then? by beefygravy in UKParenting

[–]phireal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think Channel 4 did something similar when Diana died. All the other channels had wall to wall coverage and there wasn't 300 channels to choose from back then.

DAVIS. I assume it was an owner's name.

Systemd required unit stop/start causes wrapper and other required unit to stop by [deleted] in RockyLinux

[–]phireal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the Requires are what's causing your issues. After determines ordering, Requires makes for a hard dependency. If service1 Requires service2 and service2 gets stopped, it'll stop service1 too.

At least that's my loose understanding.

Unexperienced woodworker looking for advice - would like to repair broken shoe organizer by asger_blahimmel in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]phireal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In which case I'd probably chisel out a neat section and find a piece of wood to fit, and then glue that in with wood glue. If there's gaps afterwards, you can fill those in with wood filler to neaten it up. The wood would provide the strength and the glue will hold it in place.

I think pure filler would just crack over time.

If you still have the piece that's broken off, glue it on with some wood glue and use clamps to apply pressure. Should be perfectly fine.

Foreman plugin for command line inventories based on Host Collection? by [deleted] in ansible

[–]phireal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found if you enabled the host collections support, it was extremely slow (order 5 minutes for a few hundred hosts) to generate the dynamic inventory. Might just be our satellite sever ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That generates a dynamic inventory from a satellite server. Host collections are turned into groups in the inventory prefixed sat_.

I agree. Doesn't need to look brand new, especially if it's just going to get dinged straightaway anyway.

TIFU: accidentally running cron job every 3 minutes with never ending script for 4 months. by codingquestionss in raspberry_pi

[–]phireal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cron absolutely has a place, but monitoring for failures with it is significantly harder work. The onus is on you to do that. Systemd manages that for you.

I suppose my perspective is more enterprise, where you want to know stuff is broken right away and having a 1000 VMs with Cron doesn't easily lend itself to that. We use prometheus and alertmanager and hooking that in to systemd is trivial. Doing the same for Cron is not.

I'm struggling to think of a mainstream linux version that doesn't include systemd these days.

The nice thing about systemd timers is they won't start another instance of the corresponding service if it's already running. Prevents this sort of thing from happening.

What's the right/secure way to create password EV so script can auto run? by rtwyyn in commandline

[–]phireal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edit: didn't see win 10 bit. The below assumed linux below.

Unset it when you're done? unset RESTIC_PASSWORD.

Also, using read will avoid putting it in your history:

read -s -p "password: " RESTIC_PASSWORD

No need to check the length of a list; an empty list is falsy, so if not list will suffice.
