No, it’s a concentration ranch! Totally different.

Zippo also have lifetime warranty / free repairs. I got mine repaired some years ago, from what I remember I only had to pay postage (from Norway to the US in my case).

Blade Runner

It should be possible to download the audio files directly from archive.org, using a browser.

You should also say/yell “I do not consent!”, because it’s illegal to search or arrest someone without their consent. It was a popular spell a few years ago, but I don’t see it being used much anymore, so it’s possible that the cops have found a counterspell. 😉

Not an expert, but the only thing I can imagine is that it’s related to certificates or keypairs used for encrypted communication / authentication. Afaik ssl certificates can be issued to a given company, for example, and might become invalid when that company no longer exists. Or it becomes impossible to issue new ones.

Something in that vein, maybe.

Had a similar thing at work not long ago.

A newly deployed version of a component in our system was only partially working, and the failures seemed to be random. It’s a distributed system, so the error could be in many places. After reading the logs for a while I realized that only some messages were coming through (via a message queue) to this component, which made no sense. The old version (on a different server) had been stopped, I had verified it myself days earlier.

Turns out that the server with the old version had been rebooted in the meantime, therefore the old component had started running again, and was listening to the same message queue! So it was fairly random which one actually received each message in the queue 😂

Problem solved by stopping the old container again and removing it completely so it wouldn’t start again at the next boot.

When Hillary called him a puppet controlled by Russia his response was “no puppet, you’re the puppet!”

What an amazing businessman!

What, does he have a coup for one special?

Maybe he has a… coupon…?

I’m a Norwegian Linux enthusiast and have never heard anything about the government using Ubuntu or Linux. Seems unlikely, from what I know. I know that within healthcare Windows is still widely used, even on the server side…

On the other hand, a lot of software for official services is being developed as open source now, so that’s at least a good step in the right direction. Example: https://github.com/navikt

Great job!

I literally have an account there dedicated to porn. Have had it for years. I stopped using Twitter after the muskocalypse, except I still check my porn account every once in a while.

You have to actively go looking for porn there, but once you do it’s a neverending rabbit hole. Especially if you’re into some niche/fetish stuff. There’s some unique stuff to be found there…

It actually wouldn’t surprise me if this turned out to be true

You can self-host Bitwarden, and sync your vault to your phone. Maybe not an option for everyone since it requires some technical skills, but very doable.

Oh yeah, I was there for that! Good times! 😂

You can google “women in computing” for more details, or check out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_computing - it’s amazing how much women contributed to this field and how little known that appears to be. (I only learned about it a few years ago myself.)

But the gist is:

Early on (i.e. the 1940s and 50s), men thought the prestige and honor was in building the giant machines (which back then could fill a classroom or more). Actually programming them was considered easier, “just like following a recipe”, so women got jobs as “computers” who did this part. To quote that wikipedia article: Designing the hardware was “men’s work” and programming the software was “women’s work.”

Fast forward to the 1970s and people had started realizing that programming was actually hard, and so it was promoted as a field boys should get educated in, while girls were encouraged to instead become nurses and teachers and such.

If you want to make your playbooks/roles more universal, there’s a generic package module which will figure out what package manager to use based on the detected OS.

Or, if that doesn’t fit your needs, you can add conditions to tasks (or blocks of tasks), like

when: ansible_os_family == "Debian"

and use that for tasks specific to a given Linux distro/family.

Ansible will detect a lot of info about each host and make it available as facts. See for example https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbooks_vars_facts.html

In addition to the art there’s also a library with historical documents and books, last I saw it was unknown if those were saved or not.
