@MissSnarkerson @generica Agreed although there's a carbon cost to that burning. Alkaline hydrolysis is supposed to be an eco friendly alternative...

I'm also fond of using cremation and having a memorial marker installed somewhere, if you want something for the living.

Hmmm. Using a PXE boot setup on Ubuntu, how to add a Windows 10 image to the PXE menu as an install option? I mean it's not like the damn thing has vmlinuz and initrd...or does it?

(I won't ask why my users would want to remote install Win10...)

Why can't I have a post boosted and faved at the same time

@atalsta Literally the only thing that ever works is to ask them to send screenshots. THat's actually surprisingly successful...
having said that my next user will be someone who has NO IDEA how to do screen shots.

But what gets me is they don't pass along error messages or describe what they were doing or.... gah!

WHY do users think "IT DOESN'T WORK" contains all the information I need to replicate their problem?

Huh. Did greasemonkey morph into tampermonkey?

Wow, okay. Finally fired up FireFox again after roughly 5-8 years of dropping it for sluggishness.

...not too bad! Think I'll keep it around for a while.

AHA! Found the photo I really wanted to post...

One of my favorites of her. She waited soooo patiently for a taste...

@MissSnarkerson yep, she's still on my lock screen... I don't think I'll ever remove that.

@MissSnarkerson Oh, going on four or five years ago now. I always miss her but this is not anythign sudden. One of the Parkland kids was asking for pet pics and I dug that one out. There's another that's a fave, but I haven't located it yet...too many pictures of her!

@starbreaker Nope. No one deals gracefully with it. It's fugly fugly fugly. I can't copy and paste it anywhere (even within the google ecosystem). GAH. And google has a tendency to convert all its displayed images to webp whenever possible... I hates it...

My beautiful girl. She loved swimming and retrieving...I'd take her out to the beach on weekend mornings and just throw that bumper until we were exhausted...

Cherry-picking, confirmation bias, bigotry, lies, and ad hominem…and that's from an atheist conference organizer. Do you wonder why the movement is falling apart?

@pzmyers I am so so sorry, but the atheist movement derailed for me years ago with its obvious misogyny. I haven't paid attention to it for probably a decade or more now and I'm hardly alone.

Maybe some other organization championing atheism can rise later. Without these meatheads in it.

This is so weird. I'm finding a number of servers showing bogus results on free -mh and lshw -class memory

in some cases, exactly half the memory it should is showing, one bank good one bank "empty"

In another I have a declared less than 2G memory on a server which has 128G (and is humming along just fine with about 20 vm images, so it is CLEARLY not actually at 1.6G as is being reported)

googlefu is failing me. Thoughts?

booze goes well with coffee
and with hot chocolate

... so of course it ALSO goes well with hot tea!

I don't really have a point I'm making. Just sipping some really good hot tea...
