This person centrifuges!

meyotch,

I basically chose biological sciences because the bio-boiz and eco-girls were a lot more interesting and fun than the engineers. So this checks out.

meyotch,

I’m proud that my tax dollars fund this, seriously. Frankly it probably costs very little. Someone probably has to read and approve the submissions.

How else would I know where a fancy cat goes to the bathroom?

meyotch,

Yes! I get your joke but I stayed at the visitor center campground once on a cross country motorcycle trip. Of course they show Close Encounters. It was a deliciously trashy setup with a canvas screen strung between trees and an old modified trinitron as a projector.

meyotch,

Feedback is a gift when properly wrapped.

Systemd timer unit

I try to create a timer unit for weekly and daily backups. For example with the weekly unit, it should be executed once in a week, some minutes after login. If the unit was successful, it should shutdown and not start again until the next week. If a start of this unit was missing, it should be start again some minutes after the...

meyotch,

Your systemd file looks ok, but I think it’s doing exactly what you are telling it.

The solution may lie in the backup.service. Is that code you can modify? The OnCalendar=weekly doesn’t specify when in the week the service should run so that config may be vague.

If I understand the desired function here, you will need the service up all the time. It will just wait politely and occasionally run the specific backup script. It’s up to the backup script to determine when the last backup was made and either exit early because it hasn’t been a week or run the backup and reset a flag file.

At least that’s the approach I would take. Systemd is a very vigilant, but very stupid, service manager. It just watches and triggers services based on just a few criteria. Any logic more complex needs to go in the service itself.

meyotch,

Adding a personals section could provide funding for years.

I think Nu Trek is ready for Rowan Atkinson to do a bit as that Vulcan. They might have to lower decks this one, but I want to see Mr Bean deal with a subspace anomaly.

It won’t work for all girls, but it will work for the right girl.

meyotch,

Agreed, but id rather hang out with the botanists and field ecologists anyway. I chose biology as a major precisely because the biologists were chill. The geologists drank too much and the engineers seemed uncreative. People who love and appreciate biology are my people.

meyotch,

Pressure must be applied from many sources for real change to occur. Ballot power, media power, people power, any lever we can find. We should not fault others for passionately pursuing the changes they can make. This is a war with many fronts.

But, joke aside, assistive technologies are growing really rapidly. Preserving autonomy for more people is a Good Thing™️

meyotch,

The feeling of power I get from being the first upvote on a post in new, then seeing it later in top? Intoxicating!

meyotch,

So, does that mean like ‘no worries, forever’?

meyotch,

Thanks for clarifying. The original comment was ambiguous. But it’s true, any revolution we achieve will still be influenced by the old systems for good and ill.

It’s why I get kind of tired of political theory discussions because so many of them assume starting with a clean slate, which will never happen. Once the slate is cleaned well we aren’t around to build anything else.
