Are you not in any group chats with 50 people trying to organize something? They become a cluster fuck.

For direct chats, totally agreed. I’d be seriously insulted if you used an ai to talk in a 1:1 conversation.

Observium is an easy starting point for network gear, without going down the Zabbix rabbit hole.

Personally I just roll Victoriametrics and Grafana.

I’ve been loving it so far, tempted to pick up the books now.

Mind empowering my laziness and sharing that query?

I was also planning on bulk locking all their communities, to avoid any isolated islands of people that don’t realize the community is gone.

I may be biased, but lemmy.ca is pretty great

Plan ahead. Google STAR responses and come up with some scenarios to talk about in that style. Find who is interviewing you on linked in and see what they like, the drop a hint that you like that too in the interview.

Windows wont care either way, it’s just an unreadable partition to it.

You need x on directories and executable files.

Honestly tho you could leave x on absolutely everything and probably be fine. Just pull it off your media / untrusted downloads.

If you use u+rwX style syntax instead of 755, the capital x will only apply to folders. Then you can do it all in one command and don’t need find.

This seems reasonable to me?

If you’re running it that way you still can, they’re just not going to accept bug reports or have end user docs anymore. All the developer docs will still cover it.

It’s an open source project and they need to focus their energy on known good configs.

go work for employers that embrace remote work

Have you not noticed the massive numbers of people being laid off right now in all sorts of industries?

Remote jobs are not easy to find right now. Employers are being very picky, and they can be when they get 100 applicants a day for a position. This is not the easy solution you make it out to be.

Donation nags to users were added in a recent update. I think it shows up in a year from the last popup, so about 11 months away

Was it left open + maybe in a humid area? Brittle usually means wet filament.

You could do something like nextcloud to solve a lot of issues, but I’d still hesitate to recommend on-prem hardware and managing hardware yourself. It really comes down to the business tolerance for outages though, maybe the computers being down for a day or two doesn’t matter.

Are you providing a support contract long term? Are you backed by multiple people in case you’re away and their business is down? I say this more figuratively than specifically you, this could also apply to their internal IT guy who wants to do this.

I’d strongly suggest deferring to a local business IT services company, unless you’re an active partner in the business. They should find a company they are comfortable with and trust, then use the products they recommend and are comfortable with.

Aka the compliment sandwich. A technique I personally dislike. Be honest and open with your feedback in a positive way, don’t try to hide it between compliments. If your feedback is simply negative, keep it to yourself.

People’s expectation of twitter level service doesn’t match up with the reality of federation. Devs tried to make it work anyways, with predictable results.

Oracle. We weren’t even a customer. We just had an ip space with a bunch of customers on it. Yhey tried to claim we needed to pay for all their virtualbox downloads since we weren’t a home isp.

Interesting, I’ve got some reading to do. Thanks for the links.
