    @jwildeboer if you posted this to reddit the first thing they'd ask you was whether it was printed with a food-safe filament (which most aren't)

    @jpmens is the cloud backup/sync optional ? I understand the convenience but I'd much rather not use that from a security perspective for something as critical as 2FA.

    @leogallego @jpmens @ansible @cfgmgmtcamp Leo's links are good for the Ansible track. My talk was in the monitoring track and that room wasn't recorded so there might be others in similar situations.

    @richardfontana I like @hedgedoc which is an open source fork of hackmd.

    Allows for live collaboration on slides in markdown and "renders" in reveal.js for presenting.

    Friends of Mastodon, or ?
    Why ?

    I am aware of the difference between the two and why Forgejo exists but I'm interested in your opinion.

    Thanks !

    I don't typically chat about work on Mastodon but I'm starting a new job tomorrow and it's not a prestigious or glamorous role in a huge tech company.

    Instead, I'm excited to use and share my experience with a local hosting company to set them on the right track with the right tools, processes and infrastructure.

    I'll also get to do some open source in the lands of OpenStack and Ansible once again !

    No more Azure, thank you.

    I like how a rocket explosion can be described as a "rapid unscheduled disassembly".

    We should come up with clever ways to describe server outages as well :D

    @rfc2549@fosstodon.org avatar

    @vwbusguy python f strings only arrived in 3.6, though.

    If one meant to use easily compatible string formatting across versions of python (including python 2.7!), %s was the thing where .format() wasn't used.

    I only truly started affording myself the luxury of using f-strings recently with the EOL of 3.5.

    Supported versions of python

    rfc2549,
    @rfc2549@fosstodon.org avatar

    @vwbusguy working with stable distros like RHEL, Debian and Ubuntu LTS in the field means you'll be seeing them in the wild, long after the upstream EOL date.

    RHEL 7 shipped in 2014 with python 2.7 by default and can be supported well into 2028 for those who are willing to pay for it.

    Why does everybody wait last minute to submit to conferences .. 75% of talk submissions was in the last 24 hours before closing .. do you kids realize how stressfull that is for the organisers ?

    rfc2549,
    @rfc2549@fosstodon.org avatar

    @krisbuytaert I sympathize.

    I submitted as soon as I could earlier this week and this might not be the case for everyone but:

    1. I was overwhelmed by other things. Since the deadline was further away, I de-prioritized it to take care of the other things. Sorry.

    2. The FOSDEM devrooms were recently announced with some CFPs still not opened.

    The camp CFP has been opened for a long time but the devrooms had not yet been decided.

    I wonder if more overlap would've been beneficial ?

    rfc2549,
    @rfc2549@fosstodon.org avatar

    @krisbuytaert can't do much about my personal circumstances, sorry.

    For FOSDEM, I say this since for many folks, their attendance to the camp depends on whether they get to travel to FOSDEM at all.

    This depends on a lot of factors, including stands, devrooms, the CFP and such.

    These explanations are logical and rational, though. Some will wait at the last minute because that's what they do.
