So here I am, planning on adding a drive to my server and upgrading the storage, and realizing it's been 2.5 years since I did this last and I don't remember how to resize an encrypted partition, so I'm re-watching my own video on the last time I upgraded the storage in the server, 😛

    @thelinuxEXP @darth Keep something chromium based handy for when you need to do a video call. I've had intermittent issues with conference calls because of Firefox's lack of support for certain aspects of WebRTC.

    I had to replace the wheel/brake cylinder on my 2002 Dodge Dakota, so I recorded the whole thing and made a video about it. This is the long form version of the video.

    I love it. There’s a poll ongoing about whether folks would ban a Meta (Instagram/Facebook) instance and people are like “well, I’d give them the benefit of the doubt.”

    I really have no words.

    Is it learned helplessness? Stockholm Syndrome? Masochism? Something else?

    I just don‘t get it.

    @aral What would that even look like? Like, would it just be Meta employees posting about Facebook? Like, I don't get it. Makes about as much sense as Facebook having a Twitter account (which they do).

    Another day, another blatantly misleading and possibly malicious paid advertisement on .

    1. Super Mario 3D World is a Nintendo game. It was only ever released on NIntendo's consoles; the WiiU and the Switch.

    2. The website is not nintendo(.)com, but supermarioworld-nintendo(.)com, which is not legit. The TLS certificate is a free one from Let's Encrypt, while the actual Nintendo website gets their certificate from Digicert. 1/

    A screenshot of the web page showing that the web address is supermario3dworld-nintendo(.)com and the download button is linking to a OneDrive address.

    Since I'm sick, I haven't really felt like playing anything deep and involved, so I figured I might as well buckle down and finish off "Spyro: Reignited Trilogy" on my . Fully completed every game and got all the achievements.

    I'm a firm believer that if you work full time in the US you should make enough to not need or qualify for government assistance. Maybe not get rich, but we shouldn't be subsidizing that exploit programs in order to increase their own profits.
