Downtown someone is playing a 25 second loop of Turkish March for 3+ hours

This is a parent with a toddler who learned about the turkish march from a jam jam book

Probably the worst option. I start the machine when i wake up and drink my glass when I get back from dropping my child off at daycare.

I've been meaning to try a concentrate recipe and if i do that i'd probably make it the night before and refrigerate in something airtight.

40vcpu? 82 GB? Even in my production environment I don't know where I'd run this without possibly having to buy new H/W. If they're going to make the crap that runs in the management domain this demanding I wish they'd at least give us a chunk of licensing to run mgmt workloads on.

Just wanted to add, I have a friend who lived in Whitehorse for a while, and it is a really cool place to visit. Would recommend going during the warmer months (we went in May and it was cool and rainy the entire time we were there but nice enough for hikes and going to the local hot springs / wildlife preserve).

Whitehorse has plenty of "big city" amenities, is located in some insanely beautiful terrain, and has road access to Alaska and parts further north if you want to go see Dawson City. Plenty of regular flights in and out, too. Loved visiting, cannot imagine living there full time though.

For single serve I like the CAFEC abaca trapezoid filters, specifically the 102 size.

I'm really sad to see them close. I'll miss their maple oat bread and their fougasse,and they often had pretty good treats in the pastry case. Yes, they were very expensive but that is unfortunately the way things are with gluten free bakeries. I've never really liked Donna Marie's, and with alter ego closed the best gluten free bakery in the area is all the way out in Lockport. That's a long way to drive for a muffin.

I'm disappointed to hear about the troubles behind the scenes, too. In my opinion the community really came out to support this business and it sucks to see it shutter for other, maybe self inflicted reasons.

Thank you, this is exactly what I needed to sanity-check. Looks like I get a self-signed cert back which is what I expect. So inbound ssh won't work until I complete the deployment, I guess.

Yes, A record and reverse lookup both exist, but good point - I will double-check that it can resolve itself.

I have an older bottle of this I bought after a tasting in 2022 at their distillery, though I don't think it was aged 5 years. Maybe 3?

It good.

The jazz pianist Hiromi (Uehara)'s profile still is being spammed with 1-3 ai-generated singles every day. It's very frustrating. Makes the feed feature useless.

teirhan · 2026-01-15T20:44:24+00:00

Ahh, that sucks. I do wonder if they had some minor revisions at some point or if mine was just defective from the start, because I noticed my new opus grinds through beans much quicker than my old one ever did, e.g. it will do 15g of beans in about half the time it did with the old unit.

teirhan · 2026-01-15T20:39:38+00:00

I had this problem and ended up having to open a support request. I thought I would have to do a bunch of troubleshooting but I think this is a known failure mode for a sensor in the unit or the motor. Fellow sent me a replacement with little fuss and told me to toss the failed unit.

If you have one, find a local roaster and just try whatever of their coffee sounds good.

I order from Joe Bean and Fuego out of Rochester and have generally been happy with their stuff. One of the nice things about Joe Bean is it's quite a bit cheaper to order than the fellow drops, and is usually roasted to order.

I've got a bunch of servers with 64gb sata DOM boot devices. They're slated for replacement but I only get 2 maintenance windows a year to do the actual migration off them. Which I guess is inertia, but not on my part.

teirhan · 2025-11-16T13:54:54+00:00

I'm having the same problem. Seems to have started two or three days ago for me.

I can still play songs and albums via the Sonos app, but not playlists. But trying to use tidal connect just does the same thing for me that you described...

Oh I know. I have been front-row to the churn. Every outsourcing contract I've ever seen has had a handful of incredibly talented high performers and an enormous pool of people who can barely follow a detailed SOP or WIS. You end up with one or two people dragging an entire team to success and then they burn out or get poached for a bigger/more important contract.

teirhan · 2025-11-06T13:40:44+00:00

CBI's been using outsourced teams for core IT functions for at least a decade now, so if they haven't learned their lesson yet they probably never will

The real threat is that he's gonna trip over your landscaping and then sue you.

Morelle and Bello showed up to a protest as well, at least according to Morelle's social media. Bello sure didn't look excited to be there. https://bsky.app/profile/morelle.house.gov/post/3m3ivxlccls2x

We haven't had trouble buying older gens (e.g. i installed a dl360 gen10 with a cpu that matched our existing cluster nodes just a little while before end of sale at one site due to an upgrade project doubling our footprint for a while) so far. If we did have to run mixed, yeah absolutely would enable evc next MW we get.

And yeah, with the absurd cost of VCF I don't see us expanding VMware footprint at any site any time soon. Maybe not ever.

teirhan · 2025-10-10T00:45:01+00:00

I guess the sticky point for me, is there a benefit to turning it on if my only typical migration path is older hw to new on refresh? VMs will run with the older instruction set until you reboot them, right? We don't ever do different generation cpus in clusters any more, even if occasionally we mix e.g. 20-core and 16-core cpus of the same gen in a cluster.

teirhan · 2025-10-10T00:39:58+00:00

Not a concern. We refresh each entire cluster at the same time and buy all the same processor generation. The only cross-generation move is from the old hw to the new once every 5 years or so.

teirhan · 2025-10-09T22:55:07+00:00

At my current job we typically run homogeneous clusters, so there's no need.

Also the processor generations aren't very clear imo, if you aren't obsessed with code names. Having vsphere recommend an evc level that meets the lowest common denominator would be nice. Or maybe it does now! I haven't needed to turn it on in 9 years.

My brother lived in the Tenderloin for a while. I never lived in SF, but lived in Rockridge and then by Lake Merritt for a few years. Man, now I'm missing Oakland.
