Also that if you’re doing CPR alone don’t bother with the breaths, the chest compressions are more important - only do breaths with a second person so you can keep compressions going uninterrupted.

I took a class last year that said this. It was “Shock and Compress.” The compressions are doing more good than worrying about breaths. And delegate someone to find an AED.

It felt a little silly taking that class given that I work for a health org, and I’m fully remote. The odds of my needing to know if seem pretty low, but you never know when it might be important.

Yes, back in the early 00s. We toyed with making a net-bootable image with it for our computer labs, but it was really not practical. It definitely taught me a ton about systems, though.

/dev is for device files, ie special files that let you communicate directly with a physical piece of hardware

/etc is for configuration files, ie the comments tell how to setup a device or application

/var is for variable files, ie files who’s content is regularly changing, the primary example is logs, but there are a lot of other files that land in /var (some are moving to /run, though)

I’m all for cutting less…mostly for my own laziness.

But I do the same. Less frequent and taller cutting…it’s not perfect but it looks nice in the midst of summer.

I admit, I’m not a big fan of putting more functionality into systemd (or just of systemd in general), but that is a well-reasoned argument for having sudo live in the init system.

Listening in the car is mostly retained. Basically any other task that requires any amount of real attention or brainpower breaks my ability to retain anything. Mowing, biking, dishes, etc are all fine. But I can’t work, that takes way too much focus. I usually watch twitch streams or movies/shows I’ve already seen when I need to focus on other stuff. Then it’s just background noise.

Apple ][e, it became “mine” in 90 after we moved. It’s still at my sister’s house, needs anew drive cable (we think). I bought a P2 350MHz a few years later so I could do something useful…those were the days…

First phone was (I think) a Razr, in 03. My dad was more than happy to buy me a phone so he wasn’t worried about me driving back and forth from college.

I did see another report that it’s just a component in Edge. Unfortunately I don’t have that link handy right now.

There’s basically nothing categorical that can’t run on Linux…

From a desktop standpoint, I agree. From a business server infrastructure standpoint, I disagree completely. We run tons of software that doesn’t run on Linux. Maybe there are alternatives, but there are other aspects in play (integrations with other services, vendor pricing, etc).

It’s not just desktops that people worry about.

That doesn’t make it right.

And not everyone can dump Windows for Linux. We run a lot of software that requires Windows. Changing is impractical if not impossible.

We’ve heard about some companies being charged 67x their previous years prices to renew. How is that not an unwarranted complaint?

We’re looking at a 3 to 4x increase in price, and while that’s not horrible, that’s still a lot. We’re looking at alternatives, because at the end of the day, those prices are too high. And they’re not the only ones raising prices by exorbitant amounts.

Same, and agreed. I don’t listen to much, but it’s been very nice.

It’s only as insecure as you make it. It’s an option, it needs to be used responsibly.

Look into editing the sudoers file. Add a line that allows you to run openvpn with the NOPASSWD option.

I strongly recommend not using that for everything, just the specific commands you need to run non-interactively.

Zelda 2.

It’s divisive, but I like it. I have fond memories of playing that game with my dad when I was young. When we reached the great palace, I died so quickly that he once got up early and started playing at 5am to farm extra lives for me. I went into the palace with 26 extra lives.

…I didn’t die at all on that run.

I still play it about once per year. In fact, I just finished it again about a week ago. I want to play the remade fan game, I just haven’t had time to sit and get it setup.

Is that it’s update check?

I bought the 512Gb OLED, and within two months decided I needed to upgrade the storage. I replaced the drive with a 2Tb drive, and I’m much happier. That said, I download a ton of stuff and keep it on there. I don’t often play a single game straight through, so I like having the ability to have a wide variety at any given time. Replacing the drive is trivial if you’re handy at all.

I would buy direct, I wouldn’t trust getting something second hand. I’m sure plenty of people are selling their LCD for an OLED, but I would rather go direct unless you’re getting an amazing deal and have some level of purchase protection.

Chaotic random stuff.

• Hollow Knight displate picture
• Piranha plant (Mario) in style of Starry Night
• Signed card art of Prodigal Sorcerer
• Zelda “it’s dangerous to go alone” print
• Signed, hand drawn Homer Simpson by Matt Groening
• Hobbit meals clock
• Legos (micro space shuttle, Saturn V)
• String of D20 lights

I have other stuff to put up, but since we want to move soon, I’m avoiding that. I’m really hoping to be able to put all my fun stuff back up on my new office when we move. But that remains to be seen…depends what kind of space I end up with.

I finished setting up my deck the day before the lawsuit was announced. I should probably make a backup of my SD card where I installed everything…

“No lawful way…”

I just finished saving backups of the games I bought using my (hackable) Switch, and I’m planning on setting it up w/ Yuzu on my Steam Deck.

And no one’s going to stop me from fairly using my stuff.
