I used to like mac OS when I used it on a macbook as a daily driver, years ago (haven’t owned a mac in a decade now). But recently I helped my mom set up a new macbook and I found it unwield.
I’m also with you on the Ubuntu and gnome front, although a buddy of mine swears with it. I just don’t like it. Not sure why, I have tried to work with Ubuntu + GNOME several times and I always end up switching to a different build.
This law, if it were to pass, is 100% guaranteed to be shot down by the European courts for invasion of privacy.

I just tested it on my work laptop and it’s ridiculous how much faster search is now. Gonna propose to implement it company wide on workstations. I mean, I would do so in a heartbeat, but I still want our CIO to sign off on it.
For servers though, I’m creating the policy first thing in the morning. The slow search has been the bane of my existence for years (although admittedly I could’ve googled it many times and never did, so that’s on me).
Where do you live? I’m in central Europe and hit the local currency equivalent of 60$ per person per week…
You know, I work full time from home ever since covid and it is brilliant because I had a long commute to an office I didn’t really needed to be in because all my peers/colleagues are in other countries. But when I started out, I worked in a nice office which was a 10 minute bike ride from my home and it was brilliant. If I could do the same work within a 10 minute commute I do now, I would be in the office every day I think.
I use an HP microserver gen 8, which I bought second hand (300$) and upgraded with a better CPU (20$ from ebay) and extra ram (80$) and 4 2TB SSD’s (100$ per). I installed Windows server on it because I just wanted it to work in a way I’m familiar with, but a colleague of mine installed Synology OS on it. You can use the cd drive bay for the OS disk (with some tweaking). Since you already have the disks, this would fit your budget.
But that’s not fighting and some people have that sense of humor. Feel bad for them if they are unhappy, but if they are happy, why not be happy for them?
It’s an impressive piece of software, alright
A missed opportunity for a movie called Night at the Museum.
One song that recently has been putting me into a very good mood every time I put it on is “Read my mind” by the Killers.
Tesla was overvalued when it hit 50$ pre stock split. Its continued rise over a period of years to one of the most valuable public companies is just mind boggling. But I think even now there is a lot of hesitance in shorting the stock as entire fortunes have been lost trying to predict a share price correction.
But we’re about to find out whether Tesla truly transcends auto companies: https://bradmunchen.substack.com/p/could-tesla-go-bankrupt-the-odds
Spotting one of these just went on my bucket list. Beautiful creatures.
That was a fabulous comment though
Fuck, maybe that’s why my wife calls me a magpie, but also tells me to shut up sometimes. (I like shiny things)

Last brisket, was still fucking raw. And not enough salt on the complimentary slaw.
Volkswagens EV platform is a mess because the CEO responsible for the pivot to EV within VW, was only allowed to implement it if he stopped being the CEO. So the next guy half assed the 80B$ pivot to EV, leading to VW being one of the worst performers amongst EV producing OEMs.
So now they are on the market to buy whatever is needed to get them out of the hot mess they created themselves.
