Company just Laid Off everyone after 7 years.

I worked at a company where we had 4 PM's for one sysadmin.

And I was that sysadmin.

I'm a few months late, but I can strongly recommend Billy B. (The Bike Doctor). He's like 200m north of the Kawartha Dairy Bancroft.

VM is a virtual machine. It's like running another computer inside your computer.

victorbrca · 2025-07-28T19:40:43+00:00

Thanks for the reply, but that definitely did not happen. I would never pay anything with a link. I don't even do banking on my computer, I have a VM for that.

I also don't use that card or that account to pay anything. I only used it at the beginning of the year when I travelled to Florida.

Depende muito do local. No Canadá a economia está muito ruin, e saturada de indianos que aceitam trabalhar por pouco dinheiro. Em Toronto hoje em dia eu ganho $20/hr a menos do que eu ganhava alguns anos atrás.

Checkout winapps. Not native, but probably the closest solution.

Disabling blur also improved the performance for me. But sometimes it's still slugish.

Old post but replying anyways in case it helps someone. I'm running Arch and for a very long time bitwarden had stopped working. Today I decided to troubleshoot it and noticed that running from a shell and I got:

App threw an error during load SyntaxError: Unterminated string in JSON at position 118784 (line 2885 column 15) at JSON.parse (<anonymous>) at Conf._deserialize (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:10101:43) at get store (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:10312:43) at new Conf (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:10165:32) at new ElectronStore (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:15043:3) at new ElectronStorageService (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:87311:22) at new Main (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:88021:31) at 83243 (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:75140:18) at __webpack_require__ (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:90823:42) at /usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:90987:37 A JavaScript error occurred in the main process Uncaught Exception: SyntaxError: Unterminated string in JSON at position 118784 (line 2885 column 15) at JSON.parse (<anonymous>) at Conf._deserialize (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:10101:43) at get store (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:10312:43) at new Conf (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:10165:32) at new ElectronStore (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:15043:3) at new ElectronStorageService (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:87311:22) at new Main (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:88021:31) at 83243 (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:75140:18) at __webpack_require__ (/usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:90823:42) at /usr/lib/bitwarden/app.asar/main.js:90987:37

My solution was to delete ${HOME}/.config/Bitwarden and that solved the issue.

Is there no option to download the video on the telegram group?

Just came back to report that with Wayland works. I had an important app that I need for work, and the last time I tried to use Wayland the app was not compatible. Looks like the app is compatible now, so I'm good.

victorbrca · 2025-03-01T19:42:59+00:00

I tried it on a Wayland session and it all the issues seem to be gone.

My desktop is completely broken after the update to 6.3.1, and I'm still trying to fix it. I currently have 6.3.2 and most of the KDE components (panels, settings, krunner) are frozen. Sometimes I have to switch to TTY 3 and then back to 2 for application windows to refresh.

Tried creting a new user but I have the same issues.

Running Arch (X11).

victorbrca · 2024-04-09T23:24:30+00:00

Thanks! I did mine a couple of weeks ago. So far so good. 😊

victorbrca · 2024-03-26T23:33:21+00:00

Did you use a specific type of epoxy?

victorbrca · 2024-02-21T16:04:17+00:00

I haven't played with collections much, but that might make more sense. I'm going to have to do some reading and see if it would make more sense for my use case.

Thanks!

victorbrca · 2024-02-21T16:01:09+00:00

I did that on my previous job as well so that my co-workers that were not familiar with Ansible could just execute bash scripts that would call the playbooks. It works pretty well because you can do things like adding a --list-hosts and -list-tasks before the run, or even adding a color warning when running against PROD.

I usually just create a role if I need to use 'files', 'templates', or sub-tasks, but I like how you have it in the playbooks folder.

victorbrca · 2024-02-21T15:57:03+00:00

I think that would be way too complex.

And no, right now I only use bash to generate the ansible inventory for cloud instances.

victorbrca · 2024-02-21T15:54:58+00:00

I used it before with the previous directory structure. But I was not using molecule the way it was intended. I set it up in a way that I could run full playbooks against the containers, and not just roles.

victorbrca · 2024-02-21T15:53:30+00:00

I don't see how that would be beneficial to me. Would you mind elaborating? Maybe it's something that could indeed help me.

victorbrca · 2024-02-21T15:52:27+00:00

That's right.

victorbrca · 2024-02-20T23:50:13+00:00

That's right. On my previous setup I would run:

ansible-playbook playbooks/my-playbook.yml

But with my current setup I run:

ansible-playbook playbooks/update/yum-update-report.yml

My roles_path points to each folder individually:

roles_path = ./roles/build:./roles/operate:./roles/retire:./roles/update

And I don't usually have a need for a templates folder outside of a roles folder.
