With Docker and Linux you could check the opportunities in the field of IT operations.

Casual reminder that staffing and scheduling is the manager’s job

Quoted for emphasis and affirmation.

Dirk, 1 year ago (edited 1 year ago) to linux in What's the best way to have a .bashrc that I can use throughout systems?

I personally use yadm

I just use some code and Git.

<span style="color:#323232;">if [ ! -z "$PS1" ]; then
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    repo="${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/dotfiles/"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    br='origin/main'
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    title="e[1me[31mn ░▒▓e[7m    %s    e[27m▓▒░e[0mnn%snn"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    status="$(git --git-dir="$repo" --work-tree="$HOME" status -s)"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    diff=$(git --git-dir="$repo" --work-tree="$HOME" diff --stat --cached $br)
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    [ -n "$status" ] && printf "$title" "Uncommited changes!" "$status"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    [ -n "$diff" ] && printf "$title" "Not yet pushed commits!" "$diff"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    unset title status diff br
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    alias dotfiles="/usr/bin/git --git-dir=$repo --work-tree=$HOME"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">fi
</span>

The code runs when it’s an interactive shell with a PS1 prompt and just checks if any of the tracked files have changed or if there are commits that are not pushed. By configuration I ignore all untracked files. If something has changed or wasn’t pushed it always prints an annoying message.

Whenever I want to do something I use dotfiles … instead of git …, everything else works the same.

Dirk, 1 year ago to asklemmy in So how does lemmy make money?

the lemmy.world guy had to upgrade servers at least twice during the boom

It’s their fault, though. You could either throw money at it to gain more and more power over users, or you embrace the federation and disable new registration at a certain amount of users.

Dirk, 1 year ago to asklemmy in What are Lemmy's unwritten rules?

The general public on Lemmy.

Dirk, 1 year ago to linux in What are some interesting devices powered by Linux?

So we can download the sources?

Dirk, 1 year ago to selfhosted in Alternative github frontends?

+1 for Forgejo. Runs butter smooth even on not so high-end machines. You can even mirror your GitHub repos.

Plus: It is not owned by a for-profit organization.

Sweet and creamy!

Dirk, 1 year ago to asklemmy in What password manager do you recommend?

Since you don’t want to selfhost anyway just use the one built-in to your browser. Nowadays you can set up synch with a password

Dirk, 1 year ago to linux in What happens when Linus dies/retires?

[everyone liked that]

Dirk, 1 year ago to memes in screaming into the void...

Skeletons are pretty cool though.

Then you might be excited to hear that there is at least one skeleton inside your body for your whole life.
