@ubuntu Snaps and Wayland

@PhilRaynolds @rorysutherland Bad idea, since studies show that “Ride of the Valkyries” is the most dangerous music to listen to while driving...

I'm thrilled to announce I've joined OpenAI, where I'll be heading their "Replacing Everyone’s Jobs" division. We prefer a more optimistic outlook! Can't wait to unveil what we're crafting! 🤓 /s

@nixcraft Good thing that I'll be switching back to Slackware soon, it is still Unix-like and free of modern stupidity like systemd :-)

say goodbye to the sudo. a sudo replacement called run0 that will be part of the upcoming systemd 256 release. #linux

@sarah_edo Emails are better than meetings, and IM's are better than emails. So IMHO: IM > email > meetings

Has anyone done studies about how much email a person can actually process in a day if they have a full day of other work? How did humans do this to ourselves and why?

@nixcraft I can warmly recommend @OpenStack, it's mature, stable and OSS. :-)

Oracle Cloud suddenly seems like a viable alternative after seeing the latest VMware pricing drama from Broadcom, and I am saying this knowing well how bad Oracle licensing gets 😂

@nixcraft All of the above? I'm a "generalist specialist", so everything others can't figure out often land on my table. Currently it's mostly kubernetes :-)

Poll: IT worker bees, what is your main job role?

@nixcraft Yeah, I for one are not looking forward to upgrading my systems, mandatory snap, bigger bloated systemd, and slower Gnome that f*cks up desktop apps with wayland :-(

Ubuntu announced its 18.04 (Bionic Beaver) release 5 yrs ago. The standard support period will end on 31/May/2023 unless you get Extended Security Maintenance support contract. Most users upgrading to 20.04 LTS will get upgrades after the standard EOL date cyberciti.biz/faq/upgrade-ub…

Step 0 - get a great idea Step 1 - spend many hours finding the perfect domain Step 2 - register domain Step 3 - sleep Step 4 - init new git repo and start committing code Step 5 - me losing interest in the project Step 6 - year passed. Domain expired Step 7 - go to step#0

Elon disclosed on a call today, Twitter's all in server costs are around $1.5b/year. Compare to latest estimates of Netflix … ~$300/m year to serve 10% of global downstream traffic. Criminally horrible code bloat indirectly afflicting free speech and democracy.

@nixcraft @debian You really should consider using FLAC when preserving your CD's for the future, instead of Ogg Vorbis lossy. For streaming you just reencode on the fly.

I was validating an older tutorial from 2002 (cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-ripp…) and found that all commands/app names are still valid. That is amazing, and a big thank you to the @Debian Linux community for maintaining such fantastic compatibility. Debian is genuinely the mother distro <3

What’s wrong babe? You’ve barely touched your unfinished side projects
