Plus oh-my-zsh and the powerline 10k theme - this is my go-to shell.

Yeah, and she can use boulders to block attacks - but it looks like the main method of attacking will be using echos of baddies. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I cannot over state how much I love that “Legend of Zelda” finally stars Zelda, not to mention the art style… But why did they give her apparently no offensive capabilities? Why wouldn’t she be able to swing a sword? I want to see my Zelda kick ass, not summon monsters to fight for her.

I would have had today off today.

That’s how I handled my “smart” TV - I had a spare minipc from my old homelab, threw Linux on it and plugged it into the HDMI port.

It has never connected to my network, despite the BestBuy employee insisting it would need firmware updates for better picture.

Oh snap, are you the developer of Viewtube? If so, first off - great job. I do the infrastructure side of IT for my day job but aside from some basic go, I couldn’t code something like this to save my life.

I wish I had the chops to contribute to the project.

I’m playing something every night before bed as my calm/reset time.

Just finished up Yakuza: Like A Dragon - that ending hits hard. I’ll probably go for something different next.

I still use my gaming laptop - but mostly just for Last Epoch multiplayer/BG3. I don’t like the controller experience for either game, and i have a better voice setup for multiplayer chat on my PC.

Heck, you could do a pre-stage play where you delegate to localhost an ansible.builtin.get_url to download the compose file before doing the rest.

After beating Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, I decided to revisit the previous game, Yakuza: Like A Dragon. I first tried playing YLAD a few years ago on my gaming PC, but the incredibly long, unskippable cut scenes were super frustrating. Infinite Wealth had some of that same problem, but the story clicked with me a bit more and I’ve fallen in love with the mix of heartfelt quirky gameplay.

Plus, the Steam Deck makes the long cut scenes way easier to deal with when you can just pause and sleep your console if you need a break.

I actually use my Steam Deck for programming, with the vast majority of my time spent in desktop mode. The updates are a pain to deal with, but I’ve got an Ansible playbook that can get me back to normal fairly easily.

It’s anonymous bulk text posting - great for sharing logs, but don’t discount the more grey side of the internet. If you browse recent public posts there’s often some fun things like scam links, credentials, etc.

It’s definitely fallen out of favor for password dumps though.

Holy shit, 35 tmux windows?! That’s insane.

Okay, I really want that framed in my living room to counter the suffering Jesus hanging in my parent’s living room.

Fun fact (that I just took advantage of in a CTF), sudo can also limit command line arguments. If you only want a user to restart a service but not stop it, you can restrict sudo to only

systemctl restart mysvc.service

Sorry, but wtf is that AI generated image supposed to be? A blood covered jar lid? One of those giant red Staples, “That was Easy” buttons?

I didn’t intend to use it on the chest freezer - it was mostly for the modem, but since I had spare battery capacity and outlets I thought what the heck.

The power load is practically nothing until it cycles, and even then it’s fairly efficient - my current runtime is estimated to be about 18 hours, more than enough to come up with an alternative if we lose power in a storm.

While I appreciate the sentiment, most traditional VMs do not like to have their power killed (especially non-journaling file systems).

Even crash consistent applications can be impacted if the underlying host fs is affected by power loss.

I do think that backup are a valid suggestion here, provided that the backup is an interrupted by a power surge or loss.

I agree that 99.999% uptime is a pipedream for most home labs, but I personally think a UPS is worth it, if only to give yourself the option to gracefully shut down systems in the event of a power outage.

Eventually, I’ll get a working script that checks the battery backup for mains power loss and handle the graceful shutdown for me, but right now that extra 10-15 minutes of battery backup is enough for a manual effort.

This is why I have about five of these bad boys: CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD.

One is in my utility room for my cable modem and our chest freezer, three back up my homelab and wifi AP, and one is for my office.

They’ve been bulletproof through storms, and when we’ve lost power, but not Internet I can’t keep on working.

The big thing to look for is number of battery+surge outlets vs just surge outlets. Typically they top out at 1500VA - the more overhead for what you’re powering, the longer you can go without mains power.

A screen/display is helpful for at-a-glance information like expected runtime, current output, etc.

By all means, let’s vote for the eloquent Trump instead. /S

At least Biden won’t gaffe his way into outlawing BIPOC from existing or inspire domestic terrorism with his words.
