seldoSeen several "put content warnings on politics" posts and I don't know how to tell white people that 90% of all life is politics. You're asking people to hide the stuff you find unpalatable and that's not a reasonable thing to expect other people to do for you.

“Anyone know who owns this?”
“Unplug it. Someone will show up.”

beginning to see farewell posts over on twitr. it's a bit sad but that site is now a security nightmare.
stories of PCs powering critical systems while running under desks are real.
i got called into recreate a build system after an engineer at a major software design tools vendor abruptly quit.
IT dept reclaimed + imaged the PC... that was running under his desk. hilarity ensued.
freepository had a single unplanned outage in 17 yrs: a physical hard drive failed in the primary front end server in '09.
site was down while i drove to the colo to replace it, but because i had fantastic backups, no data was lost.
disks, file systems, cron jobs + dependency chains
rob (@rhh) + i rode a section of the Co Backcountry Discovery Route together in '17.
it was a bit more gravel than i wanted + i dropped this bike at the very bottom of Corkscrew Pass on slick mud.
still a blast. great memories.
