Yeah, time to pack up and make a change. Find a new place before you quit, and I wish you luck.
Believe me when I say there ARE better organizations out there, even in healthcare. I work for a regional healthcare org, and we’ve got well-enforced policies for security (among other things). We actively work to maintain our environment to supported equipment only, and we have more than 2 people doing it.
Good luck.
While I generally agree, I must say that my Ryobi tools are doing just fine after 15ish years of use. Primarily the drill is what’s used, and it’s seen some shit but aside from a little cosmetic issue (rubber peeling off here and there) it’s in great working order. I can afford better now, but I’m happy enough to keep what I’ve got.
I’m just a handy home owner, so it’s not like I’m abusing these things.
I’m indifferent to them. I use their products, but I’m not a huge fan. I use them because I dislike the alternatives more.
I’ve been considering trying to degoogle myself, but honestly it would be complicated, and there’s a wife-approval factor that likely hinders that. We have multiple Chromecasts, Next hubs, etc around the house, and my wife likes the ease of use. I am slowly building up a home assistant instance, but still tying it into the Google home integration for ease of wife approval.
I use what works best for me, and right now most of those options are from Google.
Interesting. Looks like perhaps your boot loader isn’t properly pointing at your root partition.
I’m assuming you’ve just done the install and never successfully booted, yes? In that case, you can try to re-run the installer, or try rescue mode and try repairing the bootloader.
Are you doing dual-booting, or is this system dedicated to Linux?
Fair, but I meant updates from the original manufacturer.
You gain very little from security because nobody is targeting you…
It’s not about being targeted, it’s about being caught in the big fishing net that scammers are throwing. You don’t have to be targeted to have security concerns.
If a phone isn’t receiving regular security updates, I won’t use it. My Pixel 5a just got replaced because it’s coming up on end of support. My new Pixel has 7 years of support, so I feel a lot better about keeping it longer.
My phone has a passcode, so does my password manager and my MFA app - all different passwords. Those are the only ones I need to remember, so it’s not too bad.
Probably not ideal, but to break that someone needs to A) physically get my phone, B) unlock my phone, C) unlock my pw vault, and D) unlock my MFA app. I’m fairly confident in my setup.
Same, but my seeds are stored in a separate vault from my passwords. Seems like having MFA and passwords in the same place defeats the purpose. I used to let keepassxc auto fill MFA tokens, but finally changed to a separate app.
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.
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.
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.
“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.
I read the man page, but I didn’t see the answer to your question in there.
I am assuming that it would only dump the root filesystem in your example. Other mounted filesystems like /home or /media, if they’re separate filesystems, probably aren’t included. You’d have to run a separate dump for each one.
Best option to find out is to try it and see what happens. No better way to learn than by doing.
Read the error again. It’s journalctl.
PowerShell makes that a lot better these days. It’s still not perfect, but a lot better.
It’s not that it’s deleted automatically. If you define deleting as “not being referenced by the file system,” then it’s deleted as soon as it’s unlinked.
Fun story - create a big file, and hold it open in an application. Unlink the file. Then compare the output of du and df for the mount point the file was on. It will differ until the app closes and the inode of the file is finally freed.
This is the way.
I started by just eating less. I cut portions and started counting calories. I did the math and started staying under my number, and the pounds just melted off.
A couple months later, I added biking and walking. I’m trying to walk at least 30 minutes daily, which is just a nice break from everything.
I’m down 120 pounds. I want to drop more, but I’ve been pretty stationary for the past 3 months or so. I’m already a new man, and my doctor says I’m fine where I am. I’d like to drop another 10 just to be solidly below 200 for the first time in decades.
I went to a personal trainer for some ideas on exercises, and I need to fit those workouts into my schedule. I haven’t done that yet, but I need to.
Yes, early 40s, midwest.
My mother wouldn’t let me take my driver’s test without leaning to drive manual. My first car ended up being a manual, which ensured that no one ever borrowed my car.
I’m thankful that my kids fly well, and always have. We flew with them at ~15 months with no issues.
I’ve always heard the complaints about screaming infants and whatnot…but I’ve never seen it. Granted, I don’t fly too often (and less so more recently), but I’ve never had the “classic” kid crying through the entire flight. It just doesn’t happen as often as people think. I’m sure when it does happen that it’s pretty f’n annoying, though.
That’s my plan for our new home. I just have to figure out what to buy.
Otherwise, we have a couple of light-up penguins that my kids like having out for Christmas. I could be just fine without any decorations, but it is what it is.
