@nixCraft Never! Unless you have brought your sleeping bag with you. Also don't forget clean 🩲 🩲 for the weekend at the office. LOL

@nixCraft @janriemer A majority of companies cannot push to production on Friday as they are far away from CI/CD/DevOps for the majority of their IT and still think in Day1/Day2.

Seven-day-long battery life? Better security and privacy? Who needs that? It has an action button and USB C port that was invented ten years ago. That is the iPhone 15 in a nutshell. The whole thing (event) could have been an email newsletter. 🤡😂

There are likely physics limitations to creating a longer-lasting battery, but I am not an expert in this area. It might be theoretically possible for modem phones, but I just don't know.

@nixCraft "ah sorry sir. Could you keep your internal monologue internal please"

@nixCraft @Selena Read that and smiled …and then I realized I am this person minus the two parts that could make me healthy :-/

Do you like it when browsers share any function of your browsing history with every random website you visit to target Ads? Well, get ready, Google Chrome pushes ahead with targeted ads based on your browser history theregister.com/2023/09/06/goo #privacy #security

@nixCraft Not surprising, and I expect most browsers do (or will do) the same. But I don't use Chrome since Google's digital gangster attack on Canadian sovereignty and won't use them until they stop the extortion. Ditto with Meta (FB and Threads).

Oh my 😂 the official WinRAR account hit him hard 🤣

@nixCraft You can avoid paying for cats, by adopting a stray cat. I'd recommend that instead of going to a pet shop as you'll also help a bit by keeping care of the animals around you, instead of bringing ones which are strangers to your place.

Here is a meme that was shared by a group of disassembler enthusiasts.

@nixCraft I had it in college and it was hands-down the best and most effective way to really screw something up…until I leaned C which allowed me to screw lots of things up at the same time.
It’ll teach you how a computer works though.

@nixCraft I feel the wording needs "eve-e-e-entually" somewhere in there. :blobfoxsmirk:​

@nixCraft *cracks open Ghidra* time to fork this proprietary kernel blob

On 25 August 1991, Linus at age 21 announced Linux project/system in a Usenet posting to the newsgroup. Here is original email that changed IT world forever. Happy Birthday, #Linux kernel.

@nixCraft happy 32 years birthday, "just a hobby" 😘 😆

Ik blijf dat elke keer weer een briljante zij vinden.

@nixCraft Actually, it was not an email but a usenet posting.

@nixCraft She's right, that 's' was quite lonely. Good patch.

Not that I need to hear the @atpfm guys complain some more about Apple’s feedback/radar system… but this definitely made me think about their conversation(s)

@nixCraft it took me a few seconds and now my wife thinks I've gone mad because I just can't explain to her why this is funny...

@nixCraft I've been using vim for sometimes and I love It, but it's been a while that I use a vim plugin in vscode for some daily cases.

@nixCraft Editors...there are more of them than flavors of religion.

We tend to stick with what works for us when we devoted the time to learn the weirdness unique to _that_ editor. For me it's DEC's TPU, that is EVE; only that's no longer an option for me. Now I'm wandering in the desert seeking a replacement. Nothing seems to measure up.

@nixCraft One of many reasons why I have such excellent control over what comes in and goes out of my connection. I could easily stop this from communicating with it's C2 servers easily. I was able to do the same with Luminati/Bright Data by blocking their domains and DigitalOcean IPs.

@nixCraft Should also clarify that this is NOT the NightOwl app that one would use with the NightOwl branded CCTV cameras.

Your first website is going to suck.
Your first blog post is going to suck.
Your first video is going to suck.
Your first app is going to suck.
...
.....
.
But if you keep trying 100 times, the 101st attempt will look like a work of Art.

TL;DR: Your first attempts may not be perfect, but keep trying. Perseverance is key.

@nixCraft To expand on this, "Comparison is the thief of joy." Don't rob yourself of the joy of creating something just because someone with years or decades of experience could "do it better". They walked in the same shoes as you did, the only way they got to where they are is because they didn't fear failure, they kept working hard, and most importantly they kept learning.

Nobody is born a "natural". We all have to crawl before we walk and walk before we can run.

@nixCraft so i should just keep abandoning projects until i get to 100?

@nixCraft false, my first website was a masterpiece! It had a spinning Wu-Tang logo gif that I made myself!

This is what IBM demands from open-source developers. Meanwhile, they cried about the RHEL source code and called those distro users freeloaders or parasites. Anyway, FLOSS devs don’t own anyone anything. If you need support, pay for the contract. The sad thing is IBM/RHEL said they need to pay for their devs, and when you take it free, it is hard to maintain enterprise distro, but when it comes to other FLOSS devs/projects, they don't think the same logic applies. LOL twitter.com/maximilianhils/sta

@nixCraft oh well at least the beancounter apologised

@nixCraft What is it with massive corporations accusing small devs of extortion at every turn? Why is victimhood so desirable to these types?

The first time this happened to me, I showed up to a formal event wearing sandals, a t-shirt proclaiming the greatness of Linux, and jeans. Despite my casual attire, I was allowed entry by the security team, who recognized me as being from the IT department and assumed I was there to ensure the computers were functioning properly. LOL.

@nixCraft it's too true. There is a level of respect for the invite, but...

@nixCraft nano is a thing that pretends to be a text editor, and excuses itself with "but really tiny binary for embedded or restricted systems!!".

if you want a real text editor for actually restricted systems, there's ed.

😜️

@nixCraft

I have a love / hate relationship with nano. I love it because it is console based, and modeless unlike vi.

I hate hate hate those default key bindings. Solved that issue with .nanorc customizations.
