Wow, Unifi!

For once, I'm actually impressed with a proprietary system that just abstracts Linux primitives.

Working around my newly acquired cgnat with a wire guard tunnel was straightforward, zone based policies make sense too. Tracing could be better.

I could stare at the dashboard for hours, which I will do today

Forgive me
For I have miscounted
The ports we need and
the ports the router got.

Lights won't work until further notice.

Looking forward to an oldschool tech no-parrot weekend. Kicked it off with new paste for CPU and GPU and the highlight will be setting up the UDR7 and wiring up my first 10" network rack 🤩

I'm almost melancholic about these small nerdy joys these days, and having reason and budget to setup a rack has been a long-time always rationalized dream

Which QWERTZ/QWERTY ergonomical keyboard do I want? Split is ok.

My most used shortcuts are speakers-off,mic-mute, F2 and switch input layout. I'm not interested in dvorak.

Without going down the rabbit hole of custom mech keyboards, the Cherry KC 4500 sounds like a good default right now.

Lol Mercedes is running an AMA-style ad on Reddit with their chief software officer and it has strong "what's up my fellow kids" energy haha. What millennial marketeer convinced them it vibes with whatever audience this is meant for (me??) https://www.reddit.com/user/mercedesbenz/comments/1rq0rlo/im_magnus_%C3%B6stberg_chief_software_officer_at/?p=1&impressionid=5768404299474291911

Also the questions are hilariously staged 🤣🤣🤣

After a recent follow spree, my home feed seems to have tilted towards people using and talking about BSD. I have never (knowingly, consciously) used a BSD. I'm now interested. Why would I want to use a BSD flavor?

I suspect most people outside of the UK won't have heard about the post office scandal, but it seems highly relevant to learn about now (given *waves* this):

For over 15 years, the software post offices in the UK had to use contained severe bugs, particular in accounting, that everyone at Fujitsu/horizon and the post blissfully ignored. Over 900 (!!!) postmasters were sentenced for alleged theft and fraud, some went to jail, some committed suicide. All because the software was shit and everyone who could do something about it didn't care and swept it under the rug.

Everything, including how it was uncovered, about this seems bizarre and Kafkaesque, but we better prepare for it to happen more often.
