Hotel restaurant. The HR lady was giving my brother shit for not wearing safety shoes in the kitchen. She was saying this while in the kitchen wearing heels.
She picked the wrong day. Bro wasn’t having it.
“What the FUCK are you doing in here then!? Get out of my FUCKING kitchen!”
Everyone had been feeling it… He spoke for all of us.
I’ve been riding motorcycles on and off for years. For the last 8ish months I’ve been riding one of those like city share electric moped/scooter things. It’s a cheap Chinese NIU brand. For the size and state of infrastructure in my current city (Tbilisi) it’s honestly the best way to get around.
I lived in Tokyo for years though. I would take a train network like that any day of the week.
Not scrolling through all the comments to see if someone mentioned this yet or not but every December I check what is on the best albums of the year lists… Generally I check per-genre that I’m into. Like best black metal of 2023, best jazz of 2023, etc etc…
Other than that, bandcamp and YouTube are the biggest. I honestly buy more on bandcamp these days than I torrent though. It’s such a great site.
My personal laptop is whatever the first gen Framework is called. After many, many years doing the “cool” distros, I’ve settled on Mint and don’t really have any motivation to do anything else… I have real work I need to do and can’t be bothered to deal with figuring out weird shit. I just need it to work.
TBH, the only things I use my laptop for anymore is a browser, vim, git, and kubernetes tooling… I barely have any interest in running Linux on a workstation at this point. The only things that really interest me anymore are being run in distributed clusters. Desktop Linux is kinda boring and tedious for me.
What software are you using that is keeping you on windows?
FWIW, the last version of windows I’ve run was WinME circa 2001ish… I’ve been on Linux since '99 or so. You can certainly get by for day to day stuff. The only thing holding you back is going to be pretty niche.
It’s easier to think about Linux on the context of what an individual application needs to run. Pretty much everything you do will have these components.
configuration
an executable
a communication mechanism (dbus, networking, web server, etc)
something that decides if the application runs or not (systemd, monit, docker/docker compose, kubernetes scheduler, or you as the user)
a way of accepting input (keyboard and mouse, web requests, database queries, etc)
a way of delivering an output (logging to unique log files, through syslog, or to stdout/stderr, showing something on a screen, playing a sound, returning a message to the client, etc)
storage (optional)
some cpu and memory capacity
That’s really it. If something isn’t working, it’s pretty much exclusively going to fall into one of those categories. What that means is going to vary significantly from app to app but understanding this is how literally everything works makes the troubleshooting process a lot easier.
Yeah I am deep in the kube world as well. Since this industry-wide shift started happening, I feel like I write essentially no code anymore outside of bash scripts to glue things together. It’s essential but it’s not a replacement.
This cartoon seemed to me to be suggesting that you could implement the behavior of kube with bash. That’s obviously absurd.
Yeah I agree. It was rolled out pretty early in its development maturity so it undoubtedly left a bad taste in some people’s mouths. Overall it’s a net positive though. I don’t want to go back to the old way.
