Disney used to do that a lot, ‘get it now before it goes back into the vault’ in some effort to make it special/get-it-while-you-can.

Having everything available all the time would leave them with little to put on a pedestal as a coming soon limited time thing. Just one person’s theory though.

Should not, wonder if there’s any adguard/pihole lists to smack OneDrive/box/Dropbox/etc domains and just take these services out before they can start.

Someone pulled that formula straight out their ass

A deadline set by a government agency for government workers, NOT a ‘Google Pixel Deadline’. Stop writing alarmist headlines to make it sound like Google is gonna shut off your phone if you don’t comply. You should update, but knock this writing style off people.

Plugging a modem into the POTS made them smart I say.

Zabbix or Cacti are nice ways to draw maps that also serve a functional role in keeping track of the activity and alerting.

Yeah, stop wasting our miniscule $800 Billion budget on those $200 hammers and toilet seats…

Looks like was just updated today pending transfer, so either the owner transferring registrars or someone took it over.

Are you looking to complete a bingo card for billionaire dumbassery?

Domain expired on the 19th, so it’s validly offline. Has always seemed to be a low-adoptiom platform, will have to see the status in the next few days.

Stop using southern Indians as your drinking vessel and that wouldn’t be a problem. Daft auto written headlines…

I’m fairly sure if they took porn off the internet, there’d only be one website left, and it’d be called “Bring Back the Porn!”

So does state if the Governor is inclined. But with both having life+ sentences there’s little chance he goes anywhere.

Makes sense, I’m so accustomed to making virtual machines and such that it becomes just a thing but inevitably at some point admin access was required to create the hypervisor, the vnic, a virtual switch, etc. Without that restriction a piece of malware could readily exfiltrate data past a local protection by just making it’s own new pathway through on the fly or any number of other unpleasant things.

I recall using an app way back when I used to root and haxor all the mobiles that would do this. Kind of a virtualbox for the Nexus phones/tablets, but it needed root to do it. Will have to look into this, would be interesting if it can do so in user space somehow.

Edit: Damn, still needs root. Was a longshot to be able to hook into system resources without it but was hoping for some bridge function.

Exactly, the term has been pretty well claimed by people who host things like, oh say, their own Lemmy service or such.

Self hosted in this context is pretty well aimed at the ‘I do a service on my own time and usually own gear’ crowd. IT for a company is an entirely separate thing. Professional self-hosting would be more on a community like ‘serveradmin’.

Well one of the original mass shootings resulted in the expression ‘going postal’, but I don’t recall what was ever theorized as a motive there. Workplace frustration maybe?

It depends on the load on the disk. My main docker host pretty well has to be on the SSD to not complain about access times, but there are a dozen other services on the same VM. There’s some advisory out there that things with constant IO should avoid SSDs to not wear out the read/write too fast, but I haven’t seen anything specific on just how much is too much.

Personally I split the difference and run the system on SSD and host the bulk data on a separate NAS with a pile of spinning disks.

I fall just at that borderline of the two and have the same sort of spot. Took too long to get to a decent career-class job, managed to buy a basic house but only just and not much of one, savings of an amount to be confident of retirement are a fantasy from a bygone time. Spent many years with the mantra of show up, do your job, don’t cause trouble, the promotions and raises will follow and in 50 years you get a nice gold watch and a permanent vacation. BS…
