@stefano Those phones are particularly satisfying, because you can slam the handset down on someone objectionable on the other end of the line.
or, in this case, chuck the whole thing out the window.

@stefano I've rarely seen these phones, some people still do have them... but very rare.

Memories of a stroll in Ferrara city center, one year ago today.
Love was in the air.

@stefano Before uploading anything to cloud, we should also learn how to properly secure our files.

Microsoft "scans" password protected archives.
I don't think they should care what's inside ... or maybe they care?

If they can search for malware, why not search for something personal?

Memories of a walk in nature, 11 years ago, in search of a Silent Sunday, a bit of peace in a tumultuous and turbulent period of my life that would soon come to an end, although I didn't know it yet.

This photo holds a profound significance, known only to me.

In 2007, I used to invite friends over to my place. Often, I would hear them burst into laughter when using the toilet.
This is a photo of my flush from 2007.

Evening is descending upon Mantova, Italy.
Like every day for the past 2000 years, the city is preparing to slumber.
The last rays of the sun are casting their final glow upon the tranquil waters, which flow with a soothing, melodic murmur.

And I ponder how many things, people, and events those waters have mirrored. A new morning will arrive, bathing those ancient bricks in fresh light, just as it has for the last 2000 years.

Apple will allow the use of full versions of different browsers on iOS, not just as a 'frontend' for Safari.

This is great news because I like Safari (thanks, @lisamelton and @jensimmons !) but I believe having the option of choice is always an advantage for everyone. In the past, I've had rendering issues on some websites with Safari (Mobile), making it impossible to use those sites.

Far more blue.

Even after the darkest night, the sun will shine. The sea will entertain you with its relaxing noise, and the sand will reflect the light in a warm, ancient colour palette.

Client call in panic mode. CRM software techs logged in and filled up the disk.
With 50GB free out of 100GB, I wondered how that's possible. They wanted to copy the entire directory to another for "safety".
Explained I could backup and restore if needed in seconds. But no, they had done as they said. Result? Disk filled, everything halted.
I'm out and about.
Proxmox doesn't let me modify virtual hardware through its Android app or limited mobile web page. Desktop site request doesn't help, layout's all messed up. In emergency mode, I set up an xrdp FreeBSD jail with Mate and Firefox, connected via VPN on my smartphone, accessed the client's Proxmox.
Added a virtual disk, extended the LVM, and the underlying XFS filesystem.
Total time? A blind 10 minutes.
Triumphantly, I call the client (who knew I was away from a computer) to report success.
The naive response: "Okay, but all this time just to expand a virtual disk?"

I decide it's better not to comment 😊

@stefano Why did you add an additional disk instead of resizing the existing one?

@stefano "solved quickly = easy problem" is another "expensive = good software".

There is no way, that I know, that they get to understand this is pure 🐄🐑
