New building code for rentals stipulates one room must be capable of cooling to 26c or lower. This building was built to that code.

So we have AC. It’s fantastic.

Such kneejerk.

WHAT DOES THE MATH SAY?

As a US citizen you have right to work in most of those countries.

Nope. Absolutely none of those appear to allow working with just a US passport.

Without that right, it would be a different story

… Because I think it is.

But, to be fair, I only did a little searching. If you have a reference - like a page from the gov of Denmark saying “Yanks are cool: come in and get to work” - I’d love to be proved wrong. My nephew needs to see the world, and working is how it’s done.

Hey. If yanks get get to Canada, and get in, I’m sure we’d love to have ya.

There’s a catch: if you’re not fleeing persecution, you’re gonna need a skill. It bumps up your score on the big calculation they do, and if you can keep doing the skilled work you may one day afford to live somewhere other than winnipeg.

to say about children at a summer camp being washed away

Will no one think of the children?!?

I’m starting to think that Paramount. Like every entity Mr Trump has touched, really just wants to get through the next 3.5 years without ageing too much nor going bankrupt.

TV doesn’t do much actual news, now, what with the pursuit of cheap eyeballs and ratings, so I can predict they’ll do whatever the hell Mr Trump wants just to be done with him , like every divorce litigant ever: “just tell me what has to happen for you to go away.”

But I’d LOVE to see them stipulate either X 30-min spots are the entirety of the settlement … or CBS gets to put out a completely alt-factual spot read completely seriously by an anchor who looks like the joker and another guy in a cheesy horse mascot costume.

… With a 3.5mm audio jack.

Every time we move house, my office gets smaller. As we have a rule where the work room needs to be self-contained, my space to stash old NICs or HDDs that I need to shred is contracting.

Oh noo; forgejo is still not connected? I had high hopes. What’s the timeline?

(Honestly, but for the wonky CI spec language I may have switched already)

Company A permits federation of project 2 with contractor B who agrees. Oh look! No need to add 21 people to your AD. Contract done? De-fed.

Google feds with GH for AOSP dev, because it’s 2023. Users don’t need to even know where the repo is hosted or whether the real meat is another hop inside.

Company “BCFerries”, an imaginary organization, happens to run the largest fleet of mobile DCs in the country, with each mobile DC being 6 HA racks, three on a side, dehumidifiers o-plenty. Engineers stationed aboard need to lob tickets and hot fixes on the go, and sub them for review when the mobile DCs get a good link, 30 min out of every 2 hours. Roaming 2/2/2tb node swaps spit with the stationary nodes when it smells the VPN, and then gets ready to go again.

Repeat that above, but say ‘Maersk’. I’m betting evergreen/evergiven is on VSS.

Enough examples?

Running a federated GL is conceivably a set-it-and-forget-it like a lot of federated stuff already is, and you debug the glitches and patch like normal.

Given the 5GLs I still run were all installed by VMware/terraform/chef/RPM, patched automatically with package promotion and watched for anomalies, it’s already negligible effort. Double nothing is …let’s see …carry the 0 …integrate the square …nothing.

HELL NO.

“May federate” doesn’t necessarily mean “must federate.” Your concerns could be met if they include the standard kill switch in gitlab.rb .

(Now show me the kill switch for the bloated crappy web editor)

But that idea puts their servers at risk if the code is bad.

Somehow … not an issue for client-side …

I saw this and was pleased, actually. The relative opacity of containers makes them a validation challenge and hides versioning from standard tooling used for large host populations and/or enterprise.

Even if they sparkle.

Docker-dependent? It looks fantastic, but I have no containers in my home-lab – and it’s based on my time managing OS security for an OS. I’m stuck living vicariously through the rest of you, so report back often.

Hanauma Bay. My favourite uncle loved that place. He taught my cousin to swim there, in the ocean water, with the fish and turtles.

We want to go back because we miss him. Mom misses him dearly after his death. But we can’t go there while it’s crazy, and Mom’s on the decline herself. I think we don’t have a viable window to get there, but we’re hoping.

It’s on Apple TV. This means I’ll unfortunately never see it.

When I last quit apple TV as a person possessing no apple hardware, it was an excruciating, maddening process that took three attempts over two days to finalize. I didn’t learn anything about apple I don’t already know, but I did have some choice words for that one fuckwit family member who says “lol, just go buy apple stuff” without understanding his role in this.

So, for those reasons I choose not to go back to apple TV, ever. I can’t mentally afford the rage and anger that surrounds the termination process. And it’s my choice not to view it on pirate streams or whatnot, should it become available. I have no judgement over those who pay top dollar just to pay top dollar to view apple TV streams, and I have no negative thoughts towards those who find it on the open seas. Neither option is for me .

It could be fantastic, though, and I hope it is.

Postiz is a social media scheduling tool supporting 19 social media channels:

Thank you for including this summary. It’s surprising how often that’s left out and it’s always valuable.

Sadly, it’s container-dependent, it seems. Also, it’s asking for supply-chain exploits and violating ISO27002 with pnpm, but for a PoC setup it looks excellent.

What did you try to say then?

Dude walked it back on scrutiny. Home-room was over anyway.

Western Provinces

NO! These are NOT Western Provinces. They’re MID-Western. Please let us in the West not be associated with those demented flatlanders.

Flatlander Dementia is real, and incurable, and the only hope is to relocate young children before the disease takes hold. If you would like to hear more about Flatlander Dementia, please send a self-addressed, stamped envelope to

And remember to support charities supporting research to fight this horrible affliction.

You’re pushing a few false dichotomies there.
