I have noticed that it seems like the best coffee comes from people who are super openly expressive of their styles. I think it’s probably due to the fact that the people who are open about their expressions, are also more open for varying away from the hard set recipe in order to improve the drink.

It’s a relation I hadent connected the dots on till I saw this post and started thinking.

I love it.

The US medical system is a fucking joke, they have the GoFundMe at 78,000 as the goal, which don’t get me wrong is no small chunk of change, but the fact that if they didn’t have insurance it would cost around 45,000 the first year alone in just diagnosis and treatment costs, average 7,000 per year after that and then average 114,000 the last year of treatment is extortionary.

Granted I would expect someone like that would have insurance for the family, which means realistically they’re probably only going to have like a $10,000 yearly deductible but still

for my server I use proxmox backup server to an external HDD for my containers, and I back up media monthly to an encrypted cold drive.

For my desktop? I use a mix of syncthing (which goes to the server) and windows file history(if I logged into the windows partition) and I want to get timeshift working I just have so much data that it’s hard to manage so currently I’ll just shed some tears if my Linux system fails

meanwhile about time anyone actually followed your complaint, many more would be saying “omg you Americans are so self centered, you aren’t the only ones in the world you know”

Personally think that the more context the better, helps shape what the conversation is running off.

I’m OOTL, what did Disney do now?

I want to add, as someone who was in charge of reprovisioning high school laptops during training. Please only sticker bomb computers you actually own if it’s a system that you’ve been lent from a school district or employer please leave the stickers elsewhere. It looks cute and cuddly, but I assure you the next person in line is not going to be impressed with the permanent sticker marks from where the stickers had been on which had unequal fading

Mint is another good one, I would probably recommend against their Debian Edition(LMDE 6) though, it sounds good but, it’s their newer system so it doesn’t have all the bugs ironed out yet. I struggled with LMDE when I tried it last summer, which granted a lot of time has passed, but I rarely ever have an issue with their standard Linux Mint releases.

if you liked the design of older style windows (think like windows XP), you could look into Q4OS. I use it for my laptop and it’s Debian based so you will have pretty decent support applications wise and it has a pretty simple UI. I had never heard of it prior to a few months ago but I have had no issues with it.

Being said, I can’t remember if it has UnattendedUpgrades by default, but that program can be configured on any debian based system to allow for automatic updates. It does take a little bit of configuration if it isn’t pre-installed though.

But you have heard of me~

I just don’t go to social interactions, easier

femboys are you going to be able to do something like that but like surprised someone else is going to be able to do something like that but like surprised someone else is going to be able to do something.

Yea it just loops.

Jokes aside, this is an amazing book series, I loved it

yea, but I feel like it’s worth saying that steamdeck (where most of the steamos instances are) runs primarily in steam mode, and runs immutable OS by default so it’s pretty hard to actually mess that up. Plus steam manages most updates for you instead of you managing the updating yourself, which also helps remove the skill factor.

Me logging onto Skype after so many years

I thought about it, but immediately dismissed it cause they would lose their entire user base. It would be far too complex to have whitelist based access, as soon as anyone realized how restrictive it is they would bail

You don’t even have to leave the work Sim at home, a lot of phones allow you to just disable the SIM card in your settings. For example my phone has three SIM card slots in the settings. It has the primary sim, Sim 2 and then it has the esim. Granted I only use sim one and Sim 2 is a SIM card for a pay as you go style carrier that way if I ever get in trouble with my current carrier I can just activate it and go.

Back when I was in retail, Sim 2 was my “work sim” , paid for by the company, when I clocked out for the day I just turned it off

Less wear and tear on the phone as well by doing that

So I went to a little bit of a deep dive regarding this, they do require interrupting DNS as part of their Redemption grace period. Furthermore I went into the hexbear website and their current header indicates that despite the fact that it’s in current auction the current owner can still sign in and redeem the domain. Which makes me think that they’re running a more gracious rgp then what is to be expected. So that being said they could just be placing bids on a domain that won’t actually sell.

Being said though apparently according to other comments the infrastructure maintainer of hexbear has been AWOL for a while so it’s entirely possible that they just won’t notice it that it will transfer

The way I see it, there’s a few things that may have happened here.

1. Either the domain registrar incorrectly processed their expired domain system and sold the domain without interrupting DNS in which case a third party bought it and then immediately put it to auction (unlikely cause the status / NS is the expired servers), this route would open up the domain registrar to a complaint being filed against them via ICANN

2. Or their domain registrar had a 30-day preemptive period where they were messaging the person, and then an additional few days with auction rgp that’s the actual official last call for it, if this is the case then hexbear’s infrastructure admin should be able to just sign in and renew the domain, but they may be forced to pay a Redemption fee on top of it, if that’s the case then when they renew the domain, the auction would continue running it’s just when it ended no buyers would be selected because the original owner renewed

3. Essentially the same thing as one, however they never disabled DNS, and instead of it being a third party, it’s themselves putting it out to auction on the tail end of the 30-day rgp window. If that’s the case then like number one they’re in violation of ICANN as DNS wasn’t disabled.

Again though, this is off the consensus that they didn’t disable DNS a month ago, which I’m leaning at because I haven’t seen any comments regarding it nor have I found any ststus sites showing that the domain was offline

I must not understand it properly, how was the instance functioning during the grace period for the domain? I was under the understanding that the grace period still had the domain name disabled it’s just the owner had the ability to renew it still

then once the grace period ended then it hit redemption period where it’s auctioned.

If the domain expired 1/12, how was hexbear functioning for the last month(or was it not and I just didn’t notice cause I don’t interact with it)

Oh shoot okay, I was hoping it was a mobile setting drat lol
